flag NHB pushes faster PMAY 2.0 disbursements amid low lender participation and skewed loan distribution.

flag The National Housing Bank is urging faster disbursements under PMAY 2.0, citing sluggish progress despite government efforts to expand affordable housing access. flag While over 1.8 million potential beneficiaries have been identified, housing finance companies remain hesitant due to higher default risks, low profitability on small loans, and challenges in beneficiary-led construction. flag Disbursements are skewed toward larger loans, undermining the scheme’s goal of serving lower-income groups. flag The program offers a Rs 1.80 lakh interest subsidy in five annual installments for loans up to Rs 25 lakh, targeting EWS, LIG, and MIG households in urban areas with income caps of Rs 3 lakh to Rs 9 lakh. flag NHB has called for revised risk models and greater lender engagement to improve implementation.
