So, what is a PMAY scheme and how will it benefit you?
The Government of India introduced a scheme in 2015 to support the financially-deprived urban sections of the society. The scheme is aimed at helping these weaker sections to get shelter over their heads. Popularly known as the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana, this scheme is directed towards enabling affordable housing facilities for all.
It offers a subsidy on the interest rates of home loans to cut down on your financial burden. CLSS (Credit Linked Subsidy Scheme) is a part of the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana scheme, under which middle-income groups are also included.
The PMAY CLSS scheme will not only benefit the economically weaker class but also people falling under the middle-income groups. For the first time, MIG (Middle Income Group) has been included besides the eligible urban poor (LIG/EWS).

The Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana Urban scheme aims to provide affordable housing facilities for all people in urban sectors by the end of 2022. At present, the PMAY-U has enlisted around 4,331 cities and towns. This scheme will operate under the following three phases:
The Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana Gramin was previously called the Indira Awas Yojana. However, in 2016 the scheme was renamed PMAY-G. It is intended at providing accessible and affordable housing units to the weaker sections of the rural areas of India. However, the areas of Delhi and Chandigarh are excluded from this scheme.
The respective state governments and the Central government share the development costs of these housing units. The ratio of cost-sharing is 90:10 for hilly and North-Eastern regions, whereas it is 60:40 for plain regions.
Under the scheme of Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana, the government has targeted to construct around 2 crore houses in urban areas. These houses will be available to the eligible beneficiaries at affordable prices. Through these accessible houses, the government aims to uplift the living standards of weaker sections of the society.
The PMAY scheme has a mandatory clause of female homeownership. The house needs to be registered in the name of a woman even when she is not purchasing the property.
The scheme also includes preference provision for widows, salaried women, disabled people, transgenders, seniors, and minorities. Senior citizens are offered acclamation on the ground floor for ease of living and greater comfort.
Developers building homes under the PMAY scheme have been instructed to use only eco-friendly materials. This will limit the damage to our environment and keep pollution levels in check.
