Category Check tab

Enter your household income to instantly see which PMAY category you fall under, the eligible subsidy amount, maximum loan coverage, carpet area limits, and which PMAY 2.0 verticals (ISS, BLC, AHP) you can access. Useful for a quick eligibility check before applying.

The Formula

PMAY Urban 2.0 ISS subsidy is calculated based on the interest difference method:

Step 1: Determine eligible loan portion
Eligible Loan = MIN(Your Loan Amount, ₹8,00,000)

Step 2: Calculate EMI at full rate and subsidised rate
EMI (full) = P × r × (1+r)^n / ((1+r)^n − 1)
Subsidised Rate = Bank Rate − 4%
EMI (subsidised) = P × r' × (1+r')^n / ((1+r')^n − 1)
where P = eligible loan, r = monthly bank rate, r' = monthly subsidised rate, n = MIN(tenure, 12) × 12 months

Step 3: Total subsidy
Total Subsidy = (EMI_full − EMI_subsidised) × n months
Capped at ₹1,80,000

Step 4: NPV of subsidy
NPV = Σ (Instalment / (1 + 0.085)^year) for year 1 to 5
Where Instalment = Total Subsidy / 5
NPV capped at ₹1,50,000

Step 5: Effective EMI
Effective Principal = Loan Amount − NPV of Subsidy
Effective EMI = EMI calculated on Effective Principal at bank rate

Under PMAY 2.0, the subsidy is disbursed in 5 annual instalments via DBT (unlike old CLSS which credited NPV upfront). The NPV represents the present value equivalent of the 5 instalments, discounted at 8.5% per annum.

Example

Ramesh — factory supervisor in Lucknow, ₹5 LPA, buying first home worth ₹25 lakh

Ramesh earns ₹5,00,000 per annum and is taking a home loan of ₹20,00,000 at 8.5% for 20 years. The property is a 2BHK flat with 55 sqm carpet area, valued at ₹25,00,000.

Step 1: Category determination

Household income₹5,00,000 per annum
PMAY categoryLIG (₹3L – ₹6L)
Property value check₹25L ≤ ₹35L — Eligible
Carpet area check55 sqm ≤ 120 sqm — Eligible

Step 2: Subsidy calculation

Total loan₹20,00,000
Eligible loan for subsidy₹8,00,000 (first ₹8L only)
Subsidy rate4% p.a.
Subsidy tenure12 years (capped)
EMI on ₹8L at 8.5% for 12yr₹8,693/month
EMI on ₹8L at 4.5% for 12yr₹7,064/month
Monthly saving₹1,629
Total subsidy (144 months)~₹1,80,000 (at cap)

Step 3: NPV and instalment

Annual instalment₹36,000 × 5 years
NPV at 8.5% discount rate~₹1,42,000

Step 4: EMI impact

Full loan EMI (₹20L at 8.5%, 20yr)₹17,356/month
Effective principal after NPV credit₹18,58,000
Effective EMI₹16,107/month
Monthly EMI saving~₹1,249
Annual saving~₹14,988

By availing PMAY Urban 2.0 ISS, Ramesh saves approximately ₹1,80,000 over the subsidy period. His effective monthly EMI drops by about ₹1,250, making homeownership more affordable. He can additionally claim Section 24(b) interest deduction and Section 80C principal repayment under the old tax regime for further savings.

FAQ

PMAY Urban 2.0 Interest Subsidy Scheme (ISS) provides a 4% interest subsidy on home loans up to ₹8 lakh for eligible beneficiaries. It covers three income categories: EWS (annual household income up to ₹3 lakh), LIG (₹3–6 lakh), and MIG (₹6–9 lakh). The property value must not exceed ₹35 lakh, and it must be the beneficiary’s first pucca house. The scheme runs from 1 September 2024 to 31 December 2028. Maximum subsidy is ₹1,80,000, released in 5 annual instalments via Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT).
No. The original CLSS has been discontinued. CLSS for MIG-I (4% on ₹9L for 20yr) and MIG-II (3% on ₹12L for 20yr) ended on 31 March 2021. CLSS for EWS/LIG (6.5% on ₹6L for 20yr) ended on 31 March 2022. Under PMAY Urban 2.0 (launched September 2024), CLSS has been replaced by the Interest Subsidy Scheme (ISS) which offers a uniform 4% subsidy on the first ₹8 lakh for all three categories. Notably, the MIG income cap has been reduced to ₹9 lakh (from ₹18 lakh under the old scheme).
Unlike the old CLSS which credited the full NPV amount upfront to the borrower’s loan account, PMAY 2.0 ISS disburses the subsidy in 5 equal annual instalments via Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) into the borrower’s loan account. For the maximum subsidy of ₹1,80,000, this means ₹36,000 per year for 5 years. The instalment is released provided: (a) the loan is still active, (b) more than 50% of the principal is outstanding, and (c) EMI payments are regular. This phased disbursement means the actual benefit is lower than a lump-sum upfront credit — the NPV at 8.5% discount rate is capped at ₹1,50,000.
To apply for PMAY Urban 2.0 ISS, you typically need: Aadhaar card (mandatory for DBT), income proof (salary slips, ITR, Form 16), proof of no pucca house (self-declaration affidavit), property documents (agreement of sale, allotment letter), home loan sanction letter from the bank, bank account details linked to Aadhaar, and caste/category certificate if applicable. The application is typically processed through the lending bank/HFC which submits it to the Central Nodal Agency (CNA). You can also apply online through the pmaymis.gov.in portal.
Yes. PMAY subsidy and income tax benefits are completely independent. You can claim the PMAY interest subsidy AND separately claim: Section 24(b) deduction for home loan interest paid (up to ₹2,00,000 for self-occupied property under the old regime), Section 80C deduction for principal repayment (up to ₹1,50,000 shared limit under the old regime), and stamp duty/registration deduction under 80C in the year of purchase. The tax deduction applies to the interest you actually pay after the subsidy adjustment. Together, PMAY subsidy + tax benefits can significantly reduce the effective cost of homeownership for lower and middle income families.
