Punjab Shehri Awas Yojana under PMAY-U 2.0

Central government launched Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana - Urban 2.0 on 1 September 2024, and this phase will run for five years, till 2029. Punjab Shehri Awas Yojana now works as the state-level route into this bigger scheme, so the local process on pmidcprojects.punjab.gov.in/pmay stays in place alongside the national system.

PMAY-U 2.0 covers four ways to get a house: Beneficiary Led Construction (BLC), Affordable Housing in Partnership (AHP), Affordable Rental Housing (ARH), and Interest Subsidy Scheme (ISS). Central assistance under BLC and AHP is ₹1.5 lakh per house for families with yearly income up to ₹3 lakh, same as under the earlier PMAY-Urban scheme. Anyone who wants a home loan with interest support instead of a new construction grant can read about the PMAY Home Loan Subsidy Scheme for the ISS part.

Punjab is among the states that received fresh house approvals in recent central sanctioning meetings, including a round on 12 August 2025 where several states together got 1.46 lakh new houses sanctioned. Full state-wise sanction numbers get published after each meeting, and readers can check the PMAY Urban 2.0 CSMC Meeting Minutes for the latest count. Applicants who already submitted a form, whether under the old portal or PMAY-U 2.0, can also track PM Awas Yojana application status online.

Progress Report of Punjab Shehri Awas Yojana

Punjab government had sanctioned 96,283 houses till 1 October 2020, and around 28,466 houses were completed by that point, with the rest under construction. A target of 1.5 lakh houses was set for the second phase. These remain the last publicly confirmed state-specific figures for this older phase of the scheme.
