The Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana Home Loan scheme was initially launched on 1st June 2015 in three phases. The motive is to cover urban cities with affordable housing schemes by 31st March 2022 on the 150th Birth Anniversary of Bapu- Mahatma Gandhi. Through PMAY home loans schemes the government will build roughly 20 million houses across the nation. Moreover, the Pradhan Mantri Home Loan scheme embraces a Credit Linked Subsidy Scheme for entitled beneficiaries including EWS, LIG, and MIG categories.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Process To Take a Home Loan Under PMAY Scheme<\/span><\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To proceed for an Awas housing finance under PMAY, you will have to follow up the below-depicted procedure:<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Probe the Income Threshold:\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you finally decide to count on Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana Home Loan, the foremost crucial thing you need to check upon is your income threshold. Your income threshold must fall in any of the PMAY home loans category i.e., EWS, MIG, and LIG. As per your income threshold, the PMAY scheme depicts the carpet area that can be proposed to you. To examine the actual amount of benefit you can grab from PMAY contrary to other home loan products, ponder the home loan EMI calculator.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After getting a ballpark figure of the amount you can get under PMAY home loans, fill up the PMAY application online.
