Latest PMAY-G Odisha Update (September 2026)
The most important update for applicants is where Odisha stands after the Awaas Plus 2024 survey. According to media reports on 22 September 2026, which quote the Panchayati Raj Minister’s written reply in the Odisha Assembly:
- The survey covered 37,89,234 prospective households.
- 28,42,020 households were initially found eligible by the District Level Appellate Committee.
- The next step is preparing the Permanent Waiting List (PWL).
- Houses will be sanctioned only after the PWL is finalised and Odisha receives its target from the Union Ministry of Rural Development.
- No houses had been sanctioned under PMAY-G in Odisha in FY 2025-26 and FY 2026-27 so far.
In simple words, being found eligible in the survey is not the same as getting a sanction order. If you see websites claiming that a new PM Awas Gramin payment list for Odisha is already out for everyone, treat that with caution and verify on the official portal. Earlier in the year, state officials had spoken of extending support to 10 lakh beneficiaries by January 2026, but the Assembly reply in September shows the sanction stage has not started yet, so check the official portal for changes.
What Is PM Awas Yojana Gramin in Odisha?
PMAY-G gives financial help to rural families who have no house or live in kutcha, dilapidated homes so that they can build a pucca house. On 9 August 2024, the Union Cabinet approved 2 crore more houses for FY 2024-29, with a total outlay of ₹3,06,137 crore, as explained in the PIB release on PMAY-G: https://www.pib.gov.in/PressReleasePage.aspx?PRID=2074713®=48&lang=2
Key features you should know:
- Beneficiaries build the house themselves using local materials and trained masons.
- A wide choice of state-appropriate house designs is available, including disaster-resilient designs.
- Under the scheme framework, the cost of unit assistance is shared between the Centre and the State in a 60:40 ratio in plain areas, as per the official PMAY-G guidelines: https://pmayg.dord.gov.in/netiayHome/Uploaded/Guidelines-English_Book_Final.pdf
- Progress is monitored through geo-tagged photos at different construction stages.
PMAY-G Benefits in Odisha

| Wage employment | 90 to 95 person-days of unskilled wage labour was linked to MGNREGS in the official PMAY-G material. Since MGNREGA has been replaced by the VB-G RAM G Act from 1 July 2026, confirm the current wage entitlement with your Gram Panchayat |

Who Is Eligible for PM Awas Yojana Gramin Odisha?
Many websites say that only BPL families can apply. The official material is different. As per the PIB explainer, beneficiaries are identified through SECC 2011 and Awaas Plus surveys and verified by Gram Sabhas.
Eligible households
- Houseless households.
- Households living in houses with kutcha walls and kutcha roof.
- Households living in houses with zero, one or two rooms as per SECC 2011.
Automatically included categories
- Destitute households or those living on alms.
- Manual scavengers.
- Primitive Tribal Groups.
- Legally released bonded labourers.
Priority and reservation
- Houseless households and those with fewer rooms come first.
- Extra priority is given using a deprivation score, for example households with no adult member aged 16 to 59, female headed households with no adult male member, households with a disabled member and no able bodied adult, and landless households dependent on manual casual labour.
- A minimum of 60 percent of targets is kept for SC and ST households, 5 percent for persons with disabilities, and 5 percent for families affected by natural disasters such as Cyclone Fani in Odisha.
Who is excluded
- Households with a Kisan Credit Card limit of ₹50,000 or more.
- Government employees and households with non agricultural enterprises.
- Households with monthly income above ₹15,000 or income tax payers.
- Households owning assets such as a refrigerator, landline phone or more than 2.5 acres of irrigated land.
Official sources say the exclusion criteria were reduced from 13 to 10, and owning a motorised two wheeler or fishing boat no longer excludes a family.
Documents Required for the Awaas Plus Survey
Keep these ready before you start, because face authentication and Aadhaar checks are part of the process:
- Aadhaar number of the head of the family and members
- Mobile number linked to Aadhaar
- Aadhaar-linked bank or post office account details
- Ration card details
- Job card or Gramin Rozgar card details, if available
- Land or house site details
- Photos of the existing house
- Caste, disability or other certificates, if you claim a priority category
Exact document needs can differ at the field level, so confirm with your Gram Panchayat or Block office.
Awaas Plus 2024 Survey in Odisha: Self Survey and Assisted Survey
The Awaas Plus 2024 survey was started to identify additional eligible rural households under PMAY-G. The mobile app can be downloaded from the official PMAY-G survey information page: https://pmayg.dord.gov.in/infoapp.html, which also lists the Aadhaar Face RD app and the SOP for self survey and assisted survey.
Self Survey Steps
- Download the Awaas Plus 2024 app from the official PMAY-G site or Play Store. The app works on Android phones.
- Install the Aadhaar Face RD app, which is needed for face authentication.
- Log in with your Aadhaar number and complete face based e-KYC, then create a device PIN.
- Select your village and Gram Panchayat.
- Enter details of all family members, preferably choosing a female member as the beneficiary.
- Add bank account details and house or land details, and upload the required photos.
- Review the form, submit it, and note your acknowledgement details.
Assisted Survey
If you cannot use the app, a trained surveyor appointed by the Gram Panchayat or Block can fill the survey for you using the same Awaas Plus 2024 app. Approach your Panchayat Executive Officer or Block Development Office.
How to Check PM Awas Gramin List Odisha (Name Check)
Odisha’s list can be checked in a few ways on the official portal. Many people search for “pmayg nic in 2026 list odisha” or “pm awas gramin list name check 2026”, and the steps below cover them.
Method 1: Beneficiary search
- Open pmayg.nic.in.
- Go to Stakeholders and click IAY/PMAYG Beneficiary.
- Search with your registration number, or select Odisha, district, block and Gram Panchayat.
- Enter the captcha and submit to see the details.
Method 2: Awaas Plus beneficiary details
On the same Stakeholders menu, use AwaasPlus Beneficiary Details to check the survey record for the Awaas Plus 2024 survey.
Method 3: Panchayat wise Permanent Wait List
The home page lists “Panchayat Wise Permanent Wait List” among its most often used services. Once Odisha’s PWL is finalised, this is where you can search your village wise list.
Method 4: Awaassoft report
Go to Awaassoft, then Report, and open the beneficiary reports (also reachable through rhreporting.nic.in). This is what people usually mean when they search “pmayg nic in report” or “awaassoft nic in beneficiary”.
Offline option: The list is also displayed at the Gram Panchayat office and discussed in Gram Sabha meetings.
PM Awas Yojana Gramin Status and Installments
After your house is sanctioned, you receive a registration number. Payment is released in installments linked to construction stages, and each stage is verified by geo-tagged photos. Funds go to your Aadhaar-linked bank or post office account. The exact installment split is written in your sanction order, so rely on the AwaasSoft record for your house rather than on figures quoted by third party sites. You can track FTO and installment details from the Awaassoft menu on the PMAY-G portal.
Tips to avoid payment delays:
- Keep your Aadhaar linked with your bank account. If you face an NPCI mapping issue, follow the steps in our guide on fixing NPCI Aadhaar bank issues.
- Upload or get the stage photos done on time.
- Follow up with the Gram Panchayat if a stage is pending for long.
What If Your Name Is Not in the PMAY-G List?
- Ask your Gram Panchayat or Block office whether your household was covered in the Awaas Plus 2024 survey and what status it shows.
- Check whether an appeal or verification stage applies in your district.
- Use the Public Grievances section of the PMAY-G portal.
- Look at Odisha’s state scheme, Antyodaya Gruha Yojana. Media reports describe it as a state funded housing scheme with ₹1.20 lakh assistance for eligible rural families left out of other housing schemes, and it works through offline applications and field verification. Confirm the latest rules with the Panchayati Raj Department.
PMAY-G vs PMAY-U: Do Not Mix Them Up
PMAY-G is for rural families. PMAY-Urban is for urban areas and is handled separately at pmay-urban.gov.in. If you live in a village panchayat, you need the PMAY-G portal, not the urban application site.
Beware of Fake Websites
There is no fee for the Awaas Plus survey or for PMAY-G sanction. Do not pay any agent or middleman. Use only websites that end in .gov.in or .nic.in for official actions, and report any demand for money to your Block Development Officer.
