(a) to (d): Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA) has been implementing Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana – Urban (PMAY-U) since 25.06.2015 with an aim to provide all weather pucca houses with basic civic amenities to all eligible urban beneficiaries across the country. The scheme period of PMAY-U has been extended up to 30th September 2026 for completion of under-construction houses and release of funds through SNA-SPARSH module. Based on the learnings from the experiences of implementation of PMAY-U, MoHUA has revamped the scheme and launched PMAY-U 2.0 ‘Housing for All’ Mission with effect from 01.09.2024 for implementation in urban areas across the country to construct, purchase and rent a house by 1 crore additional eligible beneficiaries at affordable cost in next five years.

Based on the project proposal submitted by States/Union Territories (UTs), a total of 125.15 lakh houses including 13.67 lakh under PMAY-U 2.0, have been sanctioned by the Ministry, so far, across the country. Of the sanctioned houses, 116.57 lakh houses have been grounded; of which 97.30 lakh are completed/delivered to the beneficiaries as on 02.03.2026. Out of total sanctioned houses, 96 lakh houses are in the name of women or have joint ownership with male member of the family. The committed Central Assistance under the schemes is ₹2.09 lakh crore, of which ₹1.77 lakh crore has been released to the States/UTs and Central Nodal Agencies (CNAs) under the schemes, against which an amount of ₹1.67 lakh crore has been utilised by States/UTs. The State/UT-wise details of houses sanctioned, ground and completed are at Annexure.

(e): The Technology Sub-Mission (TSM) under PMAY-U supports States/UTs in adopting modern, innovative, green and alternative construction technologies for faster and quality housing. Under TSM, Global Housing Technology Challenge – India (GHTC-India) was organized to identify and mainstream globally proven, sustainable, disaster-resilient and prefabricated construction technologies. A total of 54 proven technologies from across the world were shortlisted and grouped into six categories based on geo-climatic regions for adoption by States/UTs, which are available at www.ghtc-india.gov.in. These technologies were approved by the Technical Assessment Committee and are time-tested. In addition, following activities have been undertaken under TSM for promoting energy efficient designs, climate resilient, modern, innovative and green technology for faster and

quality construction of houses: …2/--2-

(i) Six Light House Projects (LHPs) constructed at six locations using distinct technologies shortlisted under GHTC-India to promote sustainable and disaster-resilient urban housing.

(ii) 13 Demonstration Housing projects (DHPs) built across the country showcasing innovative, eco- friendly and energy-efficient construction technologies for disseminating the technical awareness.

(iii) Further, Indian Housing Technology Mela (2021) and Urban Housing Conclave (2022) were organized, each showcasing more than 80 domestic indigenous and innovative technologies, building materials and construction systems.

(iv) Performance Appraisal Certification Scheme (PACS) is being operated for identification, evaluation and certification of emerging technologies that are rapid, safe, sustainable and environment-friendly;

under the scheme, 88 innovative construction technologies have been certified.

(v) Various publications on innovative, eco-friendly, energy-efficient and disaster-resistant construction

technologies have been made available online at https://ghtc-india.gov.in/ for wider dissemination, learning and adoption.

Building upon progress of TSM, Technology & Innovation Sub-Mission (TISM) under PMAY-U 2.0 supports innovative design and construction practices, promote quality assurance and adopting green building standards for sustainable housing in the country. TISM promotes adoption of layout designs and building plans suitable for various geo-climatic zones through coordination with various regulatory and administrative bodies for mainstreaming and upscaling the deployment of modern construction technologies and material in place of conventional construction materials practices.

Projects under the scheme promotes use of resource efficient, climate responsive, disaster resilient, eco-friendly and sustainable building materials, technologies and processes.

As per the Scheme Guidelines, an additional grant in the form of Technology Innovation Grant (TIG) is also provided to AHP projects using innovative construction technologies notified by MoHUA.

States/UTs are encouraged to adopt these innovative construction technologies identified by the Ministry as per their local context. *****Annexure referred in reply to RS USQ No. 4036 due for answer on 30.03.2026 State/UT-wise details of houses sanctioned, grounded and completed under PMAY-U & PMAY- U 2.0 S.
