A  total  target  of  2.95  crore  houses  have  already  been allotted  to  States/UTs  by  March  2024  which  was  the  set  timeline approved by the Cabinet. To address the arising housing needs in rural  areas,   the  Union  Cabinet  in  its  meeting  dated  09.08.2024 approved 2 crore additional houses under PMAY-G to be constructed during FY  2024-25  to  2028-29.  As  on  17.07.2025,  out  of the cumulative  target  of  4.95  crore  houses,  4.12  crore  houses  have

been allotted to the States/UTs out of which 3.84 crore houses have been  sanctioned  and  more  than  2.80  crore  houses  have  been completed.
