For every Indian, especially in Maharashtra, owning a home is not just a goal—it’s a lifelong dream. Recognizing this, the Government of India launched the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY) in 2015, with a mission to ensure “Housing for All by 2025.”
As we enter 2025, the latest PMAY beneficiary list has been released. This brings new hope to lakhs of families in Maharashtra—from Mumbai to Nashik, from Kolhapur to Nagpur—waiting to see if their name is on the list.
Whether you’re living in a small village in Vidarbha or a crowded chawl in Pune, this scheme is your chance to own a pucca home with financial support from the government.
🏠 What is Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY)?
PMAY is a central government scheme that provides financial help to build or buy a house. It mainly helps:
- Economically Weaker Sections (EWS)
- Lower Income Groups (LIG)

- Families in both rural (Gramin) and urban (Shehri) areas.
PMAY has two main parts:
➤ PMAY-Urban (PMAY-U)
For people living in towns or cities (like Pune, Thane, Nashik, Nagpur). It also covers slum redevelopment.
