What Is PMAY?
Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY) is a government housing programme designed to support eligible households in accessing affordable housing.
The eligibility, subsidy structure, income limits, loan conditions and application requirements depend on the applicable PMAY scheme and current government rules. Buyers should verify their eligibility and the latest requirements before applying.
For buyers planning their first home purchase, understanding the applicable housing scheme alongside the property price and home-loan cost can help with overall budget planning.

Step 4: Check Project Information
For applicable projects, verify RERA registration, possession information, developer details and other relevant disclosures.

Step 7: Calculate Registration Costs
Before finalizing the transaction, estimate applicable stamp duty and registration charges using the Stamp Duty Calculator.
How to Make an Affordable Home Purchase Easier
Compare Multiple Locations
Do not evaluate a property only by its purchase price. Compare connectivity, employment hubs, schools, healthcare, public transport, infrastructure and future development.
Consider Ready-to-Move Properties
Ready-to-move resale properties may have different tax and transaction-cost implications from under-construction properties. Verify the applicable charges for the specific property.
Compare the Total Purchase Cost
Your actual budget should account for:
-
Property price
-
Down payment
-
Home-loan interest
-
Stamp duty
-
Registration
-
Maintenance
-
Parking
-
Club or facility charges
-
Interior expenses
-
Applicable taxes and transaction costs
Track Local Property Prices
