The Himachal Pradesh government has launched a housing assistance scheme offering a grant of Rs 150,000 to eligible households.
Himachal Pradesh officials unveiled a new housing assistance programme that will provide a one‑time grant of Rs 150,000 to qualifying residents. The announcement was made during a press briefing in Shimla, where the state government highlighted the scheme as part of its effort to improve living conditions for low‑income families.
Eligibility is expected to be limited to households that meet income and ownership criteria set by the state housing department. Applicants will need to submit proof of residence, income documents and details of the intended use of the grant for home construction or renovation.
The grant will be disbursed directly to beneficiaries through bank transfers after verification, and the government aims to roll out the scheme within the next two months. Officials said the assistance is intended to accelerate affordable housing development across the hilly state.
The scheme aligns with broader national objectives to increase home ownership and reduce housing deficits in rural and semi‑urban areas. Interested residents can obtain application forms from local district offices or the state’s official website.
