The Hon’ble President of India, in his address to the Joint Session of Parliament on 9th June, 2014
had announced “By the time the Nation completes 75 years of its Independence, every family will
have a pucca house with water connection, toilet facilities, 24x7 electricity supply and access.”
Hon’ble Prime Minister envisioned Housing for All by 2022 when the Nation completes 75 years of
its Independence. In order to achieve this objective, Central Government has launched a compre-
hensive mission “Housing for All by 2022”
Housing for All (HFA) mission is since launched in compliance with the above objective of the Gov-
ernment and with the approval of competent authority.
The mission seeks to address the housing requirement of urban poor including slum dwellers
through following programme verticals:
• Slum rehabilitation of Slum Dwellers with participation of private developers using land as
a resource
• Promotion of Affordable Housing for weaker section through credit linked subsidy
• Affordable Housing in Partnership with Public & Private sectors
• Subsidy for beneficiary-led individual house construction

1. Scope
1.1 “Housing for All” Mission for urban area will be implemented during 2015-2022 and this
Mission will provide central assistance to implementing agencies through States and UTs for
providing houses to all eligible families/beneficiaries by 2022.
1.2 Mission will be implemented as Centrally Sponsored Scheme (CSS) except for the component
of credit linked subsidy which will be implemented as a Central Sector Scheme.
1.3 A beneficiary family will comprise husband, wife, unmarried sons and/or unmarried daughters.
The beneficiary family should not own a pucca house either in his/her name or in the name of
any member of his/her family in any part of India to be eligible to receive central assistance under
the mission.
1.4 States/UTs, at their discretion, may decide a cut-off date on which beneficiaries need to be resident
of that urban area for being eligible to take benefits under the scheme.
1.5 Mission with all its component has become effective from the date 17.06.2015 and will be
implemented upto 31.03.2022.
2.1 All 4041 statutory towns as per Census 2011 with focus on 500 Class I cities would be
covered in three phases as follows:
• Phase I (April 2015 - March 2017) to cover 100 Cities selected from States/UTs as
per their willingness.
• Phase II (April 2017 - March 2019) to cover additional 200 Cities
• Phase III (April 2019 - March 2022) to cover all other remaining Cities
Ministry, however, will have flexibility regarding inclusion of additional cities in earlier phases
in case there is a resource backed demand from States/UTs.
2.2 The mission will support construction of houses upto 30 square meter carpet area with
basic civic infrastructure. States/UTs will have flexibility in terms of determining the size
of house and other facilities at the state level in consultation with the Ministry but without
any enhanced financial assistance from Centre. Slum redevelopment projects and Affordable
Housing projects in partnership should have basic civic infrastructure like water, sanitation,
sewerage, road, electricity etc. ULB should ensure that individual houses under credit linked
interest subsidy and beneficiary led construction should have provision for these basic civic
services.
2.3 The minimum size of houses constructed under the mission under each component should
conform to the standards provided in National Building Code (NBC). If available area of
land, however, does not permit building of such minimum size of houses as per NBC and
if beneficiary consent is available for reduced size of house, a suitable decision on area may
be taken by State/UTs with the approval of SLSMC. All houses built or expanded under the
1
Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana : Scheme Guidelines
2.4 ������������������������������������������������������������������������������������
The houses under the mission should be designed and constructed to meet the require-
ments of structural safety against earthquake, flood, cyclone, landslides etc. conforming to
the National Building Code and other relevant Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS) codes.
2.5 The houses constructed/acquired with central assistance under the mission should be in
the name of the female head of the household or in the joint name of the male head of the
household and his wife, and only in cases when there is no adult female member in the fam-
ily, the house can be in the name of male member of the household.
2.6 State/UT Government and Implementing Agencies should encourage formation of associa-
tions of beneficiaries under the scheme like RWA etc. to take care of maintenance of houses
being built under the mission.
3. Implementation Methodology
The Mission will be implemented through four verticals giving option to beneficiaries, ULBs
and State Governments. These four verticals are as below:
“In-situ” slum rehabilitation using land as a resource with private participation for providing
houses to eligible slum dwellers is an important component of the “Housing for All” mission.
This approach aims to leverage the locked potential of land under slums to provide houses
2
Ministry of Housing and Urban Poverty Alleviation
to the eligible slum dwellers bringing them into the formal urban settlement.
4.1 Slums, whether on Central Government land/State Government land/ULB land, Private
Land, should be taken up for “in-situ” redevelopment for providing houses to all eligible
slum dwellers. Slums so redeveloped should compulsorily be denotified.
4.2 Private partner for Slum Redevelopment would be selected through open bidding pro-
cess. State Governments and cities would, if required, provide additional Floor Area Ratio
(FAR)/Floor Space Index (FSI)/Transferable Development Rights (TDR) for making slum
redevelopment projects financially viable. Slum rehabilitation grant of Rs. 1 lakh per house,
on an average, would be admissible for all houses built for eligible slum dwellers in all such
projects. States/UTs will have the flexibility to deploy this central grant for other slums
being redeveloped for providing houses to eligible slum dwellers with private participation,
except slums on private land. It means that States/UTs can utilise more than Rs. 1 lakh per
house in some projects and less in other projects but within overall average of Rs. 1 lakh
per house calculated across the State/UT.
4.3 The per house upper ceiling of central assistance, if any, for such slum redevelopment proj-
ects would be decided by the Ministry.
4.4 “In-situ” redevelopment of slums on private owned lands for providing houses to eligible
slum dwellers can be incentivised by State Governments/UTs or ULBs by giving additional
FSI/FAR or TDR to land owner as per its policy. Central assistance cannot be used in such
cases.
4.5 Beneficiary contribution in slum redevelopment project, if any, shall be decided and fixed by
the State/UT Government.
4.6 Eligibility of the slum dwellers like cut off date etc. will be decided by States/UTs preferably
through legislation.
4.7 States/UTs may decide whether the houses constructed will be allotted on ownership rights
or on renewable, mortgageable and inheritable leasehold rights. States/UTs may impose
suitable restrictions on transfer of houses constructed under this component.
4.8 Approach for slum rehabilitation with private partnership is outlined as below:
4.8.1 As a first step, all tenable slums as identified in Housing for All Plan of Action
(HFAPoA) of the city should be analysed with respect to their location, number of
eligible slum dwellers in that slum (refer 4.6), area of the slum land, market potential
of the land (land value as per ready reckoner can be used), FAR/FSI available and
density norms applicable to that piece of land etc.
4.8.2 On the basis of analysis of slums, the implementing authorities should decide whether
a particular slum can be redeveloped with private participation or not using land as
a resource and to provide houses to eligible slums dwellers. For making projects
3
Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana : Scheme Guidelines
financially viable, in some cases, states and cities might have to provide additional
FAR/FSI or TDR and relax density and other planning norms. States/UTs may also
allow commercial usage for part of the land/FAR as mixed usage of the land.
4.8.3 State/ULB can also consider clubbing of nearby slums in clusters for in-situ redevel-
opment to make them financially and technically viable. Such cluster of slums can
be considered as a single project.
4.8.4 A viable slum rehabilitation project would have two components i.e. “slum reha-
bilitation component” which provides housing along with basic civic infrastructure
to eligible slum dwellers and a “free sale component” which will be available to
developers for selling in the market so as to cross subsidize the project.
4.8.5 While formulating the project, the project planning and implementing authorities
should also decide the area of slum land which should be given to the private de-
velopers. In some cases, the area of slum may be more than what is required for
rehabilitating all eligible slum dwellers plus free sale component for cross subsidizing
the project. In such cases, project planning authorities should give only the required
slum land to private developers and remaining slum land should be utilised for reha-
bilitating slums dwellers living in other slums or for housing for other urban poor.
4.8.6 Slum dwellers through their association or other suitable means should be consulted
while formulating redevelopment projects especially for the purpose of designing of
slum rehabilitation component.
4.8.7 The private developers who will execute the slum redevelopment project should
be selected through an open transparent bidding process. The eligibility criteria for
prospective developers can be decided by States/UTs and ULBs. The scope of work
of the prospective developers should be to conceive and to execute the project as
mandated by the implementing agency using its financial and technical resources. The
project developers would also be responsible for providing transit accommodation
to the eligible slum dwellers during the construction period.
4.8.8 All financial and non financial incentives and concessions, if any, should be integrated
in the project and declared ‘a priori’ in the bid document. These incentives and
concessions should also include contribution from beneficiaries/slum dwellers, if
any.
4.8.9 Sale of “free sale component” of project should be linked to the completion and
transfer of slum rehabilitation component to the implementing agency/state. Such
stipulation should be clearly provided in the bid document to avoid any complica-
tion.

making the allotment, families with physically handicapped persons and senior citizens
should be given priority for allotment on ground floor or lower floors.
4.8.11 Open bidding for the slum redevelopment project may result either into a positive
premium or negative premium. In case of positive premium, the developer who offers
the highest positive premium while satisfying all other conditions should be selected.
In case of negative premium, the implementing authority may select the bidder pro-
posing lowest negative premium. Funds required to make the project viable can be
made available either from slum rehabilitation grant of Central Government or own
fund of States and ULBs as well as positive premium received from other projects.
Any private participation, that demands substantial grants from Government, may
not be encouraged. Slums can either be taken up later for development or Kutcha/
unserviceable houses in such slums can be taken up under other components of the
mission.
4.8.12 State Project planning and implementing authorities, ULBs should have a single project
account for slum redevelopment project where positive premium, slum rehabilita-
tion grant from Central Government, funds from State Government or any other
source is to be credited and used for financing all slum redevelopment projects with
negative premium. Such accounts can be opened city-wise.
4.8.13 Slum rehabilitation projects would require various approvals from different agen-
cies as per prevailing rules and procedures in the State/UT. Project development
may also require changes in various development control rules. To facilitate such
changes and for faster formulation and approval of projects, it is suggested that a
single authority should be constituted with the responsibility to change planning and
other norms and also for according approval to projects.
The Mission, in order to expand institutional credit flow to the housing needs of urban
poor will implement credit linked subsidy component as a demand side intervention. Credit
linked subsidy will be provided on home loans taken by eligible urban poor (EWS/LIG) for
acquisition, construction of house.
5.1 Beneficiaries of Economically Weaker section (EWS) and Low Income Group (LIG) seeking
housing loans from Banks, Housing Finance Companies and other such institutions would be
eligible for an interest subsidy at the rate of 6.5 % for a tenure of 15 years or during tenure
of loan whichever is lower. The Net Present Value (NPV) of the interest subsidy will be
calculated at a discount rate of 9 %.
5.2 The credit linked subsidy will be available only for loan amounts upto Rs 6 lakhs and addi-
tional loans beyond Rs. 6 lakhs, if any, will be at nonsubsidized rate. Interest subsidy will be
credited upfront to the loan account of beneficiaries through lending institutions resulting
in reduced effective housing loan and Equated Monthly Instalment (EMI).
6
Ministry of Housing and Urban Poverty Alleviation
5.3 Credit linked subsidy would be available for housing loans availed for new construction and
addition of rooms, kitchen, toilet etc. to existing dwellings as incremental housing. The carpet
area of houses being constructed under this component of the mission should be upto 30
square metres and 60 square metres for EWS and LIG, respectively in order to avail of this
credit linked subsidy. The beneficiary, at his/her discretion, can build a house of larger area
but interest subvention would be limited to first Rs. 6 lakh only.
5.4 Housing and Urban Development Corporation (HUDCO) and National Housing Bank (NHB)
have been identified as Central Nodal Agencies (CNAs) to channelize this subsidy to the
lending institutions and for monitoring the progress of this component. Ministry may notify
other institutions as CNA in future.
5.5 Primary Lending Institutions (PLIs) can register only with one CNA by signing MoU as pro-
vided in Annexure 1.
5.6 CNAs will be responsible for ensuring proper implementation and monitoring of the scheme
and will put in place appropriate mechanisms for the purpose. CNAs will provide periodic
monitoring inputs to the Ministry of Housing and Urban Poverty Alleviation through regular
monthly and quarterly reports as per Annexure 2.
5.7 State/UTs/ULBs/PLIs shall link beneficiary identification to Aadhaar, Voter card, any other
unique identification or a certificate of house ownership from Revenue Authority of Ben-
eficiary’s native district to avoid duplication.
5.8 Preference under the Scheme, subject to beneficiaries being from EWS/LIG segments, should
be given to Manual Scavengers, Women (with overriding preference to widows), persons
belonging to Scheduled Castes/Scheduled Tribes/Other Backward Classes, Minorities, Persons
with disabilities and Transgender.
5.9 State Level Nodal Agency (SLNA) identified by State/UT for implementing the mission will
facilitate the identified eligible beneficiaries in getting approvals and documents, etc. to avail
of credit linked subsidy.
5.10 For identification as an EWS or LIG beneficiary under the scheme, an individual loan applicant
will submit self-certificate/affidavit as proof of income.
5.11 In case a borrower who has taken a housing loan and availed of interest subvention under
the scheme but later on switches to another PLI for balance transfer, such beneficiary will
not be eligible or claim the benefit of interest subvention again.
5.12 Under the Mission, beneficiaries can take advantage under one component only. Since other
three components are to be implemented by State Government through Urban Local Bodies/
Authorities etc. and this component is to be implemented by PLIs, therefore, in order that
beneficiaries do not take advantage of more than one component, PLIs should take NOCs
quarterly from State/UT Governments or designated agency of State/UT Governments for
the list of beneficiaries being given benefits under credit linked subsidy. For enabling this
process, the beneficiaries should be linked to his/her Aadhaar/Voter ID Card/Any other
unique identification Number or a certificate of house ownership from Revenue Authority
of Beneficiary’s native district and State/UT Government or its designated agency should
furnish the NOC within 15 days of receipt of such request.

The third component of the mission is affordable housing in partnership. This is a supply
side intervention. The Mission will provide financial assistance to EWS houses being built
with different partnerships by States/UTs/Cities.
6.1 To increase availability of houses for EWS category at an affordable rate, States/UTs, either
through its agencies or in partnership with private sector including industries, can plan af-
fordable housing projects. Central Assistance at the rate of Rs. 1.5 Lakh per EWS house
would be available for all EWS houses in such projects.
6.2 The States/UTs would decide on an upper ceiling on the sale price of EWS houses in rupees
per square meter of carpet area in such projects with an objective to make them affordable
and accessible to the intended beneficiaries. For that purpose, State and cities may extend
other concessions such as their State subsidy, land at affordable cost, stamp duty exemption
etc.
6.3 The sale prices may be fixed either on the project basis or city basis using following prin-
ciples;

6.4 An affordable housing project can be a mix of houses for different categories but it will be
eligible for central assistance, if at least 35% of the houses in the project are for EWS category
and a single project has at least 250 houses. CSMC, however, can reduce the requirement
of minimum number of houses in one project on the request of State Government.
6.5 Allotment of houses to identified eligible beneficiaries in AHP projects should be made fol-
lowing a transparent procedure as approved by SLSMC and beneficiaries selected should be
part of HFAPoA. Preference in allotment may be given to physically handicapped persons,
senior citizens, Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes, Other Backward Classes, minority,
single women, transgender and other weaker and vulnerable sections of the society. While
making the allotment, the families with differently-abled persons and senior citizens may be
allotted house preferably on the ground floor or lower floors.
6.6 Detailed Project Report of such projects prepared by concerned implementing agencies
should be approved by SLSMC.
The fourth component of the mission is assistance to individual eligible families belonging to
EWS categories to either construct new houses or enhance existing houses on their own
to cover the beneficiaries who are not able to take advantage of other components of the
mission. Such families may avail of central assistance of Rs. 1.5 lakh for construction of new
houses under the mission. Such beneficiaries should be part of HFAPoA.
7.1 A beneficiary desirous of availing this assistance shall approach the ULBs with adequate docu-
mentation regarding availability of land owned by them. Such beneficiaries may be residing
either in slums or outside the slums. Beneficiaries in slums which are not being redeveloped
can be covered under this component if beneficiaries have a Kutcha house.
7.2 The Urban Local Bodies shall validate the information given by the beneficiary and building
plan for the house submitted by beneficiary so that ownership of land and other details of
beneficiary like economic status and eligibility can be ascertained. In addition, the condition
of the houses e.g. Kutcha, semi-kutcha etc. of the prospective beneficiary should be checked
with SECC data to ensure beneficiary’s consequent eligibility for construction of new hous-
ing. SECC data regarding number of rooms, details of family members etc. should also be
checked to ensure beneficiary’s eligibility for enhancement.
7.3 On the basis of these applications, ULBs will prepare an integrated city wide housing project
for such individual beneficiaries in accordance with the City Development Plan (CDP) or
other such plans of the city to ensure construction of proposed houses are as per planning
norms of the city and scheme is implemented in an integrated manner. Individual applicants
for assistance shall not be considered.
7.5 While approving project for individual house construction, Urban Local Bodies and State/
UT should ensure that required finance for constructing the planned house is available to
the beneficiary from different sources including his own contribution, GoI assistance, State
10
Ministry of Housing and Urban Poverty Alleviation
Government assistance etc. In no case, GoI assistance will be released for house where
balance cost of construction is not tied up, as otherwise release of GoI assistance may result
into half constructed houses.
7.6 State/UT or cities may also contribute financially for such individual house construction.
Central assistance will be released to the bank accounts of beneficiaries identified in projects
through States/UTs as per recommendations of State/UT.
7.7 Though the funds from Central Government to State Governments would be released in
lump-sum including assistance for this component, State Government should release financial
assistance to the beneficiaries in 3-4 instalments depending on progress of construction of
the house. Beneficiary may start the construction using his own funds or any other fund and
GoI assistance will be released in proportion to the construction by individual beneficiary.
The last instalment of Rs. 30,000/- of GoI assistance should be released only after comple-
tion of the house.
7.8 The progress of such individual houses should be tracked through geo-tagged photographs
so that each house can be monitored effectively. States will be required to develop a system
for tracking progress of such houses through geo-tagged photographs. Flow chart show-
ing steps in beneficiary-led construction or enhancement component of the mission is as
under:

11
Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana : Scheme Guidelines
8. Implementation Process
8.1 As a first step, States/UTs will sign a Memorandum of Agreement (MoA) to participate in
the mission by agreeing to mandatory conditions and other modalities. A copy of the MoA
to be signed between State/UT and Centre is placed at Annexure 3.
8.2 States/UTs will send proposals to the Ministry for inclusion of cities in the mission along with
broad assessment of housing and resources requirement. Ministry will approve inclusion of
these cities considering availability of resources. The credit linked subsidy component of
the mission will, however, be implemented in all statutory cities/towns across the country
right from the launch of the mission.
8.3 State/Cities will undertake a demand survey through suitable means for assessing the actual
demand of housing. While validating demand survey, States/Cities should consider possible
temporary migration from rural areas to the city just to take advantage of housing scheme
and exclude such migrants from list of beneficiaries. On the basis of demand survey and other
available data, cities will prepare Housing for All Plan of Action (HFAPoA). HFAPoA should
contain the demand of housing by eligible beneficiaries in the city along with the interven-
tions selected out of four verticals mentioned in para 3 of the guidelines. The information
regarding beneficiaries should be collected by States/UTs in suitable formats but must contain
the information as in Annexure 4. While preparing HFAPoA, State/UT and Implementing
Agencies should also consider the affordable housing stock already available in the city as
Census data suggests that large number of houses are vacant.
8.4 Jan Dhan Yojana/other bank account number and Aadhaar number/Voter ID card/any other
unique identification details of intended beneficiaries or a certificate of house ownership
from Revenue Authority of beneficiary’s native district will be integrated in the data base
of HFAPoA for avoiding duplication of benefit to one individual family. Beneficiaries will be
validated by States/UTs and ULBs thereby ensuring their eligibility at the time of preparation
of the projects and approval of projects.
8.5 On the basis of HFAPoA, States/Cities will subsequently prepare the Annual Implementation
Plans (AIPs) dividing the task upto 2022 in view of the availability of resources and priority.
For larger cities, HFAPoA and AIPs can be prepared at sub-city (ward/zone etc.) level with
the approval of concerned State/UT Government.
8.6 The result of demand survey, draft HFAPoA and draft AIP should be discussed with the lo-
cal representatives including MLAs and MPs of that area so that their views are adequately
factored in while finalising the plans and beneficiary list.
8.7 Cities which have already prepared Slum Free City Plan of Action (SFCPoA) or any other
housing plan with data on housing, should utilise the existing plan and data for preparing
“Housing for All Plan of Action” (HFAPoA). Houses constructed under various schemes
should be accounted for while preparing HFAPoA & AIP. Flow Chart for preparing HFAPoA
is placed below. The formats for the HFAPoA and AIP are kept at Annexure 5 & 6 respec-
tively.

8.8 The HFAPoA and AIPs should be submitted to the Ministry after approval of State level
Sanctioning and Monitoring Committee for assessment of the overall plan and required
central financial assistance. In view of availability of finance and upon assessment of plan,
CSMC may issue directions for change in HFAPoA and AIPs.
8.9 HFAPoA should be reviewed on a yearly basis to make changes in view of implementation
of Annual Implementation Plan (AIP) in the preceding years.
8.10 Based on HFAPoA and availability of resources, each city will prepare Detailed Project Re-
port (DPRs) under each component of the Mission. All DPRs should be approved by State
Level Sanctioning and Monitoring Committee.
8.11 Urban Local Bodies should take into account the provisions of the City Development Plan,
City Sanitation Plan etc. in preparing HFAPoA for achieving synergy with other ongoing
programmes of both Central and State Governments.
8.12 A Beneficiary will be eligible for availing only a single benefit under any of the existing op-
tions i.e. slum redevelopment with private partner, credit link subsidy, direct subsidy to
individual beneficiary and affordable housing in partnership. It will be the responsibility of
State/UT Government to ensure that the beneficiary is not given benefit under more than
one component of the Mission and all assisted families are part of HFAPoA.
9. Technology Sub-Mission
9.1 A Technology Sub-mission under the Mission would be set up to facilitate adoption of modern,
innovative and green technologies and building material for faster and quality construction
of houses. Technology Sub-Mission will also facilitate preparation and adoption of layout
designs and building plans suitable for various geo-climatic zones. It will also assist States/
Cities in deploying disaster resistant and environment friendly technologies.
9.2 The Sub-mission will coordinate with various regulatory and administrative bodies for main-
streaming and up scaling the deployment of modern construction technologies and material
in place of conventional construction. Technology sub-mission will also coordinate with
other agencies working in green and energy efficient technologies, climate changes etc.
9.3 The Sub-Mission will work on following aspects: i) Design & Planning ii) Innovative technolo-
gies & materials iii) Green buildings using natural resources and iv) Earthquake and other
disaster resistant technologies and designs. Simple concept of designs ensuring adequate
sunlight and air should be adopted.
9.4 Centre and State would also partner with willing IITs, NITs and Planning & Architecture
institutes for developing technical solutions, capacity building and handholding of States and
Cities.
9.5 State or region specific needs of technologies and designs would also be supported under
this Sub-Mission.
14
Ministry of Housing and Urban Poverty Alleviation
10.1 Central government land owning agencies should also undertake “in-situ” slum redevelop-
ment on their lands occupied by slums by using it as a resource for providing houses to slum
dwellers. In case of relocation, a land should either be provided by the agency itself or the
agency may collaborate with the States/UTs for obtaining land from State/UT/City. Central
Government agencies should not charge land costs for the land used for the purpose of
housing the eligible slum dwellers.
10.2 Central govt. agencies undertaking slum development in partnership with private developers
would be eligible for slum rehabilitation grant of Rs. 1 lakh per house on an average for all
slums on their land being taken up for redevelopment with private partners.
Availability of urban land is the biggest constraint in providing housing to all including weaker sec-
tions. Therefore, to ease administrative and regulatory bottlenecks, a set of Mandatory Conditions
has been included in the Mission to facilitate growth of housing sector including affordable housing.
For participating in the mission and to avail of financial assistance from Central Government, States/
UTs should agree to fulfil following Mandatory Conditions:-
11.1 State/UTs to make suitable changes in the procedure and rules for obviating the need for separate
Non Agricultural (NA) Permission if land already falls in the residential zone earmarked in Master
Plan of city or area.
11.2 States/UTs shall prepare/amend their Master Plans earmarking land for Affordable Housing.
11.3 A System should be put in place to ensure single-window, time bound clearance for layout approval
and building permissions at ULB level.
11.4 States/UTs shall adopt the approach of deemed building permission and layout approval on the
basis of pre-approved lay outs and building plans for EWS/LIG housing or exempt approval for
houses below certain built up area or plot area.
11.5 States/UTs would either legislate or amend existing rental laws on the lines of model Tenancy Act
being prepared by Ministry.
11.6 States/UTs shall provide additional FAR/FSI/TDR and relaxed density norms for slum redevelop-
ment and low cost housing, if required.
5% of the allocation under the scheme is earmarked for capacity building, Information Education &
Communication (IEC) and Administrative & Other Expenses (A&OE). Allocation available under
this head will be utilised for carrying out various activities required for effective implementation
of mission. Illustrative activities under this component are as below :
15
Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana : Scheme Guidelines
Capacity Building
12.1 Capacity building activities like trainings, workshops, study/exposure visits, etc. would be undertaken
for enhancing the capacities of various stakeholders in implementation of the mission. Research
