For every Malayali family, whether living in the green villages of Wayanad, the coastal towns of Kollam, or the busy lanes of Ernakulam, owning a home means more than just shelter. It’s about security, pride, and peace of mind.
To help every Indian family achieve this dream, the Government of India launched the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY) in 2015, aiming for “Housing for All by 2025.”
Now in 2025, the latest PMAY Beneficiary List is out. Thousands of families across Kerala are checking if their names appear—bringing them one step closer to having a permanent home with the government’s support.
Whether you’re a daily wage worker in Kasaragod, a migrant returnee in Malappuram, or a fisherman’s family in Alappuzha, this is your opportunity to build or buy a pucca (permanent) house.
