Central Government Announced a New PPP (Public Private Partnership) Policy for Affordable Housing that allows extending central assistance of up to Rs 2.50 lakh for each house to be built by private builders even on private lands.
Union Minister of Housing & Urban Affairs Hardeep Singh Puri announced this Policy.
The policy seeks to assign risks among the government, developers and financial institutions and to those who can manage them the best besides leveraging underutilized and un-utilized private and public lands towards meeting the Housing for All target by 2022.
The two PPP models for private investments in affordable housing on private lands include:
1. Central assistance of about Rs 2.50 lakh per each house as interest subsidy on bank loans as upfront payment under the Credit-Linked Subsidy Component (CLSS) component of Pradhan Mantri Awas yojana (Urban).
2. Central assistance of Rs 1.50 lakh per each house to be built on private lands would be provided in case the beneficiaries do not intend to take bank loans.
PPP (Public Private Partnership) policy gives eight Public Private Partnership (PPP) options for the private sector to invest in affordable housing segment. Among these, six options call for using government lands. These 6 PPP options are
