## ANSWER

THE MINISTER OF STATE (INDEPENDENT CHARGE) OF THE MINISTRY OF HOUSING AND URBAN AFFAIRS [SHRI HARDEEP SINGH PURI]

(a) & (b): In pursuance of the Government's vision of 'Housing for All' by 2022,  the  Ministry  of  Housing  and  Urban  Affairs  is  implementing  Pradhan Mantri  Awas  Yojana  (Urban)  [PMAY(U)]  since  25.06.2015  for  providing assistance to States/Union Territories (UTs) in addressing the housing

requirement  of  the  people  belonging  to  Economically  Weaker  Sections (EWS), Lower Income Group (LIG) and Middle Income Group (MIG) categories in urban areas.

Since  inception  of  the  Scheme,  total  15,263  projects  have  so  far  been approved for construction of 72,65,763 houses under the PMAY(U), out of which 37,54,871 have been grounded for construction, 14,42,796 have been completed and 13,94,022 have been occupied by the beneficiaries.  Statewise financial and physical progress under the PMAY(U) is at Annexure.

Based  on  their  demand  for  housing  under  the  PMAY  (U),  the  States/UTs formulate project proposals and they are approved by the concerned State Level Sanctioning & Monitoring Committee (SLSMC) which is chaired by the Chief Secretary of the concerned State.  After approval from the concerned SLSMC, the States/UTs submit the proposals to this Ministry for approval of central  assistance  by  the  Central  Sanctioning  &  Monitoring  Committee (CSMC).  As the CSMC meets every month, no project proposal as on date is pending in this Ministry.

- (c) & (d): The  central  assistance  is  not  admissible  for  acquiring  land  for housing projects under the PMAY (U).
- (e): As  per  the  PMAY(U)  guidelines,  the  sale  price  of  the  houses  under Affordable Housing in Partnership (AHP) vertical of the PMAY(U) is fixed by States/UTs  factoring  in  incentives  provided  by  Centre/State/ULB  with  an objective to make  them  affordable and accessible to the intended beneficiaries.
- (f): The  concessional  rate  of  Goods  and  Services  Tax  (GST)  of  12% (effective rate of 8% after deducting one-third of the amount charged for the house  towards  the  cost  of  land)  is  applicable  for  house  constructed  or acquired under the PMAY(U).
- (g): As per the PMAY(U) guidelines, an individual beneficiary is required to submit  self-certificate/affidavit  as  proof  of  income  and  Aadhar/Voter  ID Card/any other unique identification number or a Certificate from Revenue Authority of beneficiary's native District for availing the benefits under the Scheme.
