Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (2019-2020) - PMAY Housing, Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY): Scheme Details|
Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman said in a press conference today that the government has decided to extend the duration of the subsidy-linked home loan scheme (Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana) for one year. The credit linked subsidy scheme was introduced by the government in 2017 and ended in March 2020. Now the date has been extended to March 2021. The benefit of this scheme will be available to people whose annual income is between Rs 6 lakh to Rs 18 lakh.
The scheme has so far benefited 3.3 lakh people. The government hopes that extending the scheme date will benefit more than 2.5 lakh people. The finance minister said this would lead to an investment of about Rs 70,000 crore in the housing sector, which would create employment opportunities as demand for steel, iron and other construction materials would increase.
