Every Indian aspires to own a home of their own but increasing real estate costs makes this quite a task. To help individuals combat these financial issues, the government of India has introduced several schemes under the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojna. This scheme, which tries to give affordable housing options to all, includes the Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Authority- MHADA lottery method.

What is the MHADA lottery scheme?

The Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Authority (MHADA) is responsible for building residential homes under various housing schemes for different social segments.

Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Authority was established in the year 1977 to benefit individuals with low-income levels. The scheme targets -

  • Economically Weaker Sections (EWS)
  • Lower Income Groups (LIG)
  • Middle-income Groups (MIG)
  • Higher Income Groups (HIG)

Prime objectives of introducing the MHADA lottery scheme:

The MHADA intends to offer affordable housing options; this lottery scheme offers over 1,300 low-cost housing units. MHADA's full form is Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Authority (MHADA); it is a big part of the housing industry.

Under MHADA, approximately 7.50 Lakh families in the state over the past seven decades, including 2.5 lakhs in Mumbai alone, got affordable homes.

Vision and mission of MHADA:

  • To build quality oriented and value-driven homes at reasonable costs
  • Housing for individuals in various economic brackets
  • To uplift people and commit to providing housing to all

How is Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Authority (MHADA) related to Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY):

The Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY) scheme targets a particular portion of Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Authority's (MHADA) residential units. Depending on the applicant's income group, the PMAY scheme allows them to receive an interest subsidy of up to Rs. 2.67 Lakh.

A limited number of people apply for the MHADA scheme through PMAY, leaving more units under the PMAY plan unoccupied in the MHADA home projects. This ensures the interest subsidy and possible chances of winning the lottery. By completing your application process through PMAY, you can save more money on your home purchase.

Areas covered under MHADA:

Only a few specific locations, including Andheri, Chandivali, Goregaon, Chembur, Borivali, Ghatkopar, Kandivali, Dahisar, Jogeshwari, Kurla, Korekalyan Santacruz, Malad, Mankhurd, Powan, Sion, Wadala, and Mulund, are subject to the Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Authority's scheme.
