  o   Land cost not to be charged by Central Govt. agencies


·         Slums on Private Owned Land


  o   States/Cities provide additional FSI/FAR or TDR to land owner as per its policy; No Central Assistance


·         State/UTs shall decide: Eligibility criteria; Beneficiary contribution; allotment basis; etc.


  o   Identify all tenable slums and their parameters; Examine financial and technical viability


·         Two Components: slum rehabilitation component; free sale component: available to developers for selling in the market so as to cross subsidize the project


·         Private partner to be selected through open bidding process




At the slum decadal growth rate of 34%, the slum households are projected to go upto 18 million. 2 million non-slum urban poor households are proposed to be covered under the Mission. Hence, total housing shortage envisaged to be addressed through the new mission is 20 million.


Credit linked subsidy component is being implemented as a Central Sector Scheme while other three components as Centrally Sponsored Scheme (CSS).
All statutory towns as per Census 2011 and towns notified subsequently would be eligible for coverage under the Mission
