PMAY List - State Wise Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana List

The Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY) is one of India’s flagship housing schemes, covering both rural (Gramin) and urban segments designed to provide affordable housing for eligible families. One important feature for beneficiaries is the state-wise list of approved houses/beneficiaries, which shows names, sanction status, and whether you’ve been shortlisted for assistance.

What is the PMAY‐List

  • Under PMAY (Urban) and PMAY (Gramin), the government periodically publishes beneficiary lists identifying eligible households who have been approved or are in the wait-list. The lists are often categorised by state, district, block, village/ward.
  • For rural part (Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana Gramin or PMAY-G), you can search by state/district/block/village to view the “Permanent Wait List” or approved beneficiary list.
  • For urban part (Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana Urban or PMAY-U), there is also state-wise or city-wise progress dashboard showing how many houses sanctioned and completed.

How to check your name in the list (State Wise)

Here’s the general process step by step:

  1. Visit the official PMAY portal: for Gramin you may go to https://pmayg.nic.in and for Urban to https://pmaymis.gov.in.
  2. Choose the section: e.g., Beneficiary List, Advanced Search, Permanent Wait List. For rural: on the portal look for IAY/PMAYG Beneficiary search.
  3. Select your State → District → Block → Village (for Gramin) or State → City → Ward (for Urban).
  4. Enter any required filters (registration number, name of head of household, BPL number) and click Submit.
  5. Review the results: If your name appears, check the sanction status, subsidy amount, instalments released (if applicable).
  6. If you don’t find your name: Check the wait-list, or your area may yet not have been updated.

Important State-Wise Considerations

  • The list varies state to state because each state/UT implements PMAY through their housing/urban development department and uploads data accordingly.
  • Some states may have multiple rounds of survey or beneficiary identification (for example via Awaas+), so new names may appear mid-year.
  • The lists show sanctioned houses approved for subsidy under PMAY. Sanction ≠ completed house. There may be a lag for construction and handover.
  • Note that the portal may show progress dashboards for example number of houses sanctioned, completed, in-progress, state-wise which is useful for overview.

Why this matters for you

  • If your name appears in the list, it means you are eligible for subsidy/assistance under PMAY and should monitor for next steps (construction, instalment etc).
  • If your name does not appear but you believe you are eligible, you can approach your Gram Panchayat / Urban Local Body for status, grievance or inclusion in future list.
  • The state-wise list offers transparency you can see whether your state is uploading data, how many houses have been sanctioned/completed etc.
  • For records: It’s wise to download or save a copy (screenshot/PDF) of your name in the list for future reference.

Things to keep in mind / Caveats

  • Just because you are eligible (your house is kutcha, or you are in SECC list) does not automatically mean you will appear in the list selection may depend on various criteria in your state (priority categories, survey data).
  • The list may not be updated daily there can be delays in uploading data from blocks/wards to central portal.
  • Appearing in list does not guarantee instant subsidy, you will still need to meet construction norms, provide documents, etc as per scheme guidelines.
  • The list is public but for better accuracy always cross-check through your local implementing agency.
  • “State-wise list” means each state has a subset of the national data; don’t confuse national numbers with your local state’s list.
  • For urban areas, sometimes separate lists exist for different components of PMAY (EWS category, BLC component etc).

Summary

The state-wise list of the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (rural & urban) is a critical tool for beneficiaries to check their eligibility and sanction status. By visiting the correct portal, selecting your state and area, and searching by name or registration number, you can determine if you appear in the list. Keep in mind the list reflects sanctioned houses, not necessarily completed ones, and states upload data at different speeds. Checking this list periodically is wise if you’ve applied for the scheme or believe you should have.
