pmayg.nic.in Beneficiary List 2026 — Step-by-Step

Quick answer. pmayg.nic.in does not open any more — the domain is dead, and so are the old mirrors awaassoft.nic.in and iay.nic.in. The PMAY-G (Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana — Gramin) portal now lives at pmayg.dord.gov.in, run by the Department of Rural Development. To check your name on the PMAY-G beneficiary list 2026: (1) if you have your Registration Number or Beneficiary ID, search it directly at awaassoft.pmayg.dord.gov.in/netiay/Benificiary.aspx; (2) if you do not, open the reports page at report.pmayg.dord.gov.in/netiay/newreport.aspx and browse the village-wise list under Social Audit Reports → Beneficiary details for verification. Both are free and need no login. The same database still covers legacy IAY (pre-2016) and PMAY-G records.

If you typed pmayg.nic.in and got a “site can't be reached” or “server not found” error, your internet is fine. The Government of India has been moving scheme portals off the old nic.in addresses onto ministry gov.in domains, and the rural-housing portal moved with them.

Memory tip: DoRD is the Department of Rural Development, so the new home is pmayg .dord.gov.in. If you can only remember one address, type pmayg.gov.in — it forwards to the right place automatically.

Any blog, video, or WhatsApp forward still telling you to “open pmayg.nic.in” is describing the old, dead portal. The steps below are for the portal as it works today.

• Owner: Department of Rural Development (Ministry of Rural Development), Government of India.
• Backend: AwaasSoft — the same beneficiary database as before. Your old data did not disappear; only the web address changed.
• Scheme covered: PMAY-G (rural housing), including legacy IAY (Indira Awas Yojana, merged into PMAY-G in 2016). Old IAY registration numbers still work.
• What you can do: search your beneficiary record, browse village and panchayat-wise lists, see sanction and instalment status, view social-audit report data.
• What you cannot do here: anything PMAY-Urban. For city applicants, PMAY-U 2.0 runs on pmay-urban.gov.in, with applications and status on pmaymis.gov.in.

Many citizens want to see the complete list of PMAY-G beneficiaries in their village — not just their own record, but the full panchayat-wise list. This is useful for transparency and social audit. Here is the full walkthrough:

1. Go to report.pmayg.dord.gov.in/netiay/newreport.aspx.
2. Scroll down past the dashboard to the “Social Audit Reports” section.
3. Click “Beneficiary details for verification”.
4. A form loads with cascading dropdowns. Select in this exact order: State → District → Block → Gram Panchayat.
5. For Scheme, choose PMAYG. For Year, pick the relevant target year (the list shows beneficiaries sanctioned up to that point).
6. Click “Proceed” or “Get Report”.
7. The full panchayat-wise list renders in a table: Registration Number, Beneficiary Name, Father/Husband Name, Category, Sanction Status, Instalment Progress, House Status.
8. Use the Export to Excel / PDF buttons above the table to download a copy.
9. To check a different village in the same block, change only the Gram Panchayat dropdown — the State/District/Block stay selected.

Tip: If a panchayat shows zero beneficiaries, it may mean none were sanctioned in that period, or the data is being updated. Cross-check at your Block office.

This is the fastest route if any PMAY-G paper, SMS, or Gram Panchayat record ever gave you a registration number.

1. Open awaassoft.pmayg.dord.gov.in/netiay/Benificiary.aspx directly. (Yes, “Benificiary” is spelled that way in the government URL — do not correct it, or the page will not open.)
2. In the search box, enter your Registration Number or Beneficiary ID. The portal accepts IDs between 9 and 60 characters, so both old IAY numbers and newer PMAY-G IDs fit.
3. Click Submit.
4. Your record appears: name, State, District, Block, Panchayat, sanction details, and instalment progress.

If the page says no record found, re-check the number digit by digit first — a single wrong character returns nothing. If it still fails, use Way 2.

You can pull the full panchayat-wise PMAY-G beneficiary list without any number, using the reports side of the portal.

1. Open report.pmayg.dord.gov.in/netiay/newreport.aspx.
2. Scroll to the Social Audit Reports section.
3. Click Beneficiary details for verification.
4. Select your State → District → Block → Panchayat from the dropdowns, and pick the scheme (PMAY-G) and year.
5. The full list for your panchayat loads — names, registration numbers, sanction status. Find your village and read down the names.
6. Use the export buttons on the report table to save a copy for your records.

This reports route is also how you check whether a neighbour or relative who “got a house on paper” actually appears in the official list — useful raw material before filing an RTI about fake beneficiaries.

The reports portal at report.pmayg.dord.gov.in lets you export the full beneficiary list for any panchayat, block, or district. Here is exactly how:

1. After generating a report (follow the village-wise walkthrough above), look at the top-right corner of the report table.
2. You will see two export buttons: Excel and PDF. On some report pages, a Print option is also available.
3. Click Excel to download a spreadsheet (.xls) with all beneficiary records — registration number, name, father's/husband's name, category, sanction status, instalment progress, and house completion status.
4. Click PDF to download a formatted PDF of the same table.
5. The file downloads to your device. No login or OTP is required.

What you can download:

• A single Gram Panchayat list (typically 20–200 names depending on panchayat size)
• A Block-level summary (aggregate counts — not individual names unless you drill down)
• A District-level progress report showing houses sanctioned, completed, and in progress

File size note: Large district reports may take 1–2 minutes to generate on the government server. If the page times out, try again or narrow to a single block.

If you do not have your Registration Number — perhaps you lost your application acknowledgement or never received one — you can still find yourself in the PMAY-G list. The official portal does not have a direct “search by name” field, but you can use these workarounds:

1. Method A — Browse your panchayat list (recommended). Follow the Way 2 walkthrough above: select State → District → Block → Panchayat, generate the list, and look for your name alphabetically. If the list is long, use Ctrl+F (desktop) or the browser's Find-on-page to search for your surname or first name.
2. Method B — Ask your Gram Panchayat secretary. The Panchayat office maintains a printed copy of the PMAY-G beneficiary list for its area. Visit during working hours and ask to see it. They can also give you your Registration Number if you are on the list.
3. Method C — Contact your Block Development Officer (BDO) office. The BDO's office has the AwaasSoft records for the entire block. Submit a written request with your name, father's name, and village details; they can look you up and provide your registration number.
4. Method D — File an RTI. If none of the above works, file an RTI application to the BDO's Public Information Officer asking: “Please provide the PMAY-G registration number, application status, and current position of [your name], residing at [address], Gram Panchayat [name].” Under the RTI Act, 2005 §7(1), you must get a reply within 30 days. Use our RTI for PMAY status guide for a ready-to-use template.

Important: The PMAY-G portal does not allow search by Aadhaar number, mobile number, or ration card number. These are privacy-restricted fields and are not exposed on the public portal. Anyone claiming to “search PMAY-G by Aadhaar” on a private website is running a scam — only trust .gov.in addresses.

The Ministry of Rural Development publishes state-wise PMAY-G progress data on pmayg.dord.gov.in and the Ministry of Rural Development website. Below is the approximate state-wise distribution of houses sanctioned and completed under PMAY-G (as of 2025–26, based on DoRD dashboard data):

Key takeaways from state-wise data:

• Uttar Pradesh has the largest PMAY-G target by far, with over 30 lakh houses sanctioned.
• Gujarat has one of the highest completion rates (~90%), meaning houses sanctioned there are more likely to be finished.
• Assam and Jharkhand have lower completion rates — applicants in these states may face longer wait times.
• The North-Eastern states and hilly regions receive higher per-unit assistance (₹1.30 lakh vs ₹1.20 lakh in plains).

For state-specific status guides, see:

• PMAY status Bihar
• PMAY status Gujarat
• PMAY status Karnataka
• PMAY status Maharashtra
• PMAY status Rajasthan
• PMAY status Tamil Nadu
• PMAY status Uttar Pradesh
• PMAY status Madhya Pradesh

PMAY-G assistance is released in instalments tied to construction stages, verified with geo-tagged photos. The labels you will see:

Exact tranche amounts and stage rules are set in the PMAY-G Framework for Implementation and can vary; the total unit assistance is ₹1.20 lakh in plain areas and ₹1.30 lakh in North-Eastern and hilly states. If the portal shows an instalment released but your bank account never received it, that is exactly what an RTI to the Block Development Officer is for — see RTI for PMAY instalment delay.

The Awaas+ 2024 survey is a fresh doorstep survey launched on 17 September 2024 by the Ministry of Rural Development to identify households that were missed by the original SECC 2011-based list. Its purpose is to update the permanent wait list so that genuinely eligible families can be added to the PMAY-G beneficiary pipeline.

Key facts about Awaas+ 2024:

1. Launch date: 17 September 2024, per the PIB press release on PMAY-G continuation.
2. What it does: Enumerators visit villages to survey households that do not have a pucca house and were not already covered under PMAY-G.
3. Data collected: Household details, current housing condition, caste/category, BPL status, GPS coordinates of the dwelling.
4. How it connects to the list: Households found eligible in Awaas+ 2024 are added to the permanent wait list in AwaasSoft. When new sanctions are released (the Cabinet approved 2 crore additional houses for FY 2024-25 to FY 2028-29), names are taken from this wait list in priority order.
5. How to check if you were surveyed: Ask your Gram Panchayat secretary or Block office whether your household was included in the Awaas+ 2024 enumeration. If it was not, you can request inclusion.

If you were missed in Awaas+ 2024 too: You can file an RTI to the BDO asking whether your household was covered in the Awaas+ 2024 survey, and if not, why. See our Gram Panchayat RTI guide for the process.

For more details, see our PMAY 2026 Complete Guide which covers the Awaas+ survey timeline and how it feeds into sanctions.

The permanent wait list is the AwaasSoft database of eligible households that have been identified for PMAY-G assistance but have not yet been sanctioned (i.e., their house has not been approved for construction funding). Think of it as a queue — when the government releases a new tranche of houses, beneficiaries are pulled from this list.

How the permanent wait list works:

1. Entry point: Households enter the wait list through the SECC 2011 data, the Awaas+ 2018-19 survey, or the new Awaas+ 2024 survey.
2. Priority: Priority within the wait list is determined by deprivation criteria — households with no pucca house, vulnerable groups (SC/ST, landless labourers, single women, disabled members), and those in the lowest income brackets get higher priority.
3. Sanction cycle: When a state's PMAY-G target is updated (e.g., the 2 crore additional houses approved in August 2024), state governments select names from the wait list and send them to the Centre for sanction. Once sanctioned, the name moves from the wait list to the active beneficiary list.
4. Checking your position: You cannot see your exact wait-list position online (the portal shows only sanctioned beneficiaries). To check where you stand, ask your Gram Panchayat or BDO office, or file an RTI.

RTI to check your wait-list position:

File an RTI to the BDO's PIO asking: “Please provide the PMAY-G permanent wait list position, registration number (if any), and expected sanction timeline for [name], residing at [address], Gram Panchayat [name].” Reply due within 30 days per RTI Act §7(1). See our RTI for PMAY status template.

Some readers assume the dead portal means the scheme ended. The opposite is true:

• The Union Cabinet approved continuation of PMAY-G from FY 2024-25 to FY 2028-29, adding assistance for 2 crore more rural houses (Cabinet decision of 9 August 2024, per the PIB release).
• Unit assistance stays ₹1.20 lakh (plains) / ₹1.30 lakh (NE and hilly states).
• A fresh Awaas+ 2024 survey app was launched on 17 September 2024 to add households missed earlier to the permanent wait list — so new names ARE still being added in 2026.

Many citizens confuse PMAY-G (Gramin / rural) with PMAY-U 2.0 (Urban). They are separate schemes with separate portals, separate beneficiary lists, and separate eligibility rules. Searching the wrong portal will never find your name.

How to know which one you are under:

• If your address falls under a Gram Panchayat (village panchayat, not municipality/nagar palika), you are under PMAY-G.
• If your address falls under a municipal corporation, municipality, or town panchayat, you are under PMAY-U 2.0.

For PMAY-Urban name-not-in-list issues, see PMAY-U 2.0 name not in list guide. For urban status checks, see PMAY-Urban 2.0 status 2026. For a combined guide covering both schemes, see PMAY 2026 Complete Guide.

1. You may be in the Awaas+ pipeline, not the sanctioned list yet. The Awaas+ 2024 survey captures households missed by the older SECC 2011-based lists. Ask at your Gram Panchayat whether your household was covered in the Awaas+ 2024 survey and whether you are on the permanent wait list.
2. Check the legacy record. If you applied years ago under IAY, search your old IAY registration number in Way 1 — legacy records live in the same database.
3. File an RTI to your Block Development Officer (BDO) asking for: your application status, the wait-list position, the reason for exclusion, and a copy of the relevant survey entry. Under §6(1) of the RTI Act the BDO's Public Information Officer must reply within 30 days per §7(1). Use our RTI for PMAY status guide for a ready template, or generate one in 2 minutes with the AI RTI Drafter.
4. No reply or a vague reply? Build a first appeal with the First Appeal Builder and track your deadlines with the Timeline Tracker.

Sometimes your name is on the PMAY-G list but the details are wrong — wrong name spelling, wrong bank account number, wrong category, or someone else's house is showing against your registration number. Here is how to fix it:

Step 1 — Gather evidence.

1. Take a screenshot or printout of the incorrect record from the beneficiary search page.
2. Collect supporting documents: Aadhaar, bank passbook, old application acknowledgement, Gram Panchayat certificate.

Step 2 — Submit a written correction request to the BDO.

1. Visit the Block Development Officer's office with your documents and a written application requesting correction.
2. Take a receiving (stamped copy) of your application.

Step 3 — If no action within 30 days, file an RTI.

1. File an RTI application to the BDO's Public Information Officer. Sample wording:

1. Please provide the complete PMAY-G beneficiary record for Registration Number [your number] / Name: [your name], Gram Panchayat: [name].
2. The record on the portal shows [describe the error — e.g., wrong bank account number / wrong name spelling]. Please confirm the correct details as per the application form on file.
3. Please provide the procedure and timeline for correcting errors in a PMAY-G beneficiary record.
4. Please inform whether a correction request submitted on [date] has been processed, and if not, the reason for delay.

Step 4 — If the RTI reply is unsatisfactory, file a First Appeal within 30 days to the First Appellate Authority (usually the Sub-Divisional Magistrate or BDO's superior). Use the First Appeal Builder.

The two schemes use separate databases. A rural applicant will never appear on the urban portal and vice versa. Note that the old urban CLSS interest-subsidy window is closed; urban applicants now come under PMAY-U 2.0 (2024). For a combined walkthrough of both, see PMAY 2026 Complete Guide.

The old address no longer resolves at all — it is not a temporary outage. The portal itself was not shut down; it moved to pmayg.dord.gov.in with the same AwaasSoft database behind it. Update your bookmark and ignore old links.

The beneficiary-search page has carried that spelling since the AwaasSoft days, and the new portal kept the same path: /netiay/Benificiary.aspx. Type it exactly as spelled — a “corrected” spelling returns a page-not-found error.

The direct search page works on the Registration Number / Beneficiary ID. If you do not have any ID, use the village-wise browse route (Way 2 above) and find your name in your panchayat list, or ask your Gram Panchayat / Block office to look you up in AwaasSoft and give you your registration number.

AwaasSoft was originally built for IAY (Indira Awas Yojana), which was restructured into PMAY-G in 2016. The label stayed so that pre-2016 IAY beneficiaries can still find their records with their old registration numbers.

Entries are updated by Block-level officials as sanctions and instalments happen, so there can be a lag between an event and the portal showing it. If your record looks stale or wrong for weeks, ask the BDO in writing — and if that fails, an RTI under the RTI Act, 2005 forces a written answer within 30 days.

First verify your bank/post-office account details with the Block office — payments go by DBT and a wrong account number stalls them. Then file an RTI to the BDO asking for the UTR/transaction reference, date, and destination account of the release. Template and steps: RTI for PMAY instalment delay.

Yes. The Awaas+ 2024 survey (launched 17 September 2024) exists precisely to add eligible households missed by earlier lists to the permanent wait list, and the scheme itself runs to FY 2028-29 with 2 crore additional houses. Contact your Gram Panchayat secretary or Block office and ask for your household to be checked against the Awaas+ 2024 survey.

No. Both the search page and the reports page are free and need no login or OTP. Anyone charging money “to check your PMAY list” — a cyber café, an agent, an app — is charging for a free government page. Only trust gov.in addresses.

Use the village-wise report (Way 2 above) to check the beneficiary list for your panchayat. If someone who already owns a pucca house or does not meet the eligibility criteria appears on the list, gather evidence (screenshots, photos) and file an RTI to the BDO asking for the eligibility verification documents for that beneficiary. See RTI when PMAY applications are stuck for related guidance.

You need identity proof (Aadhaar, voter ID), residence proof, caste/category certificate (if applicable), bank account details, and a photograph. Your Gram Panchayat will verify these during the Awaas+ survey. See our PMAY documents required guide for the complete list.

Yes — the portal supports Hindi navigation. For a full Hindi-language guide, see PMAY status check in Hindi. You can also check by Aadhaar-linked search via PMAY status check with Aadhaar.

Typically 12–18 months from sanction to completion, assuming construction progresses on schedule and geo-tagged photos are uploaded at each stage. Delays usually occur at the verification stage (Block officials must visit and verify each construction stage) or when bank details are incorrect. If your instalment is stuck for more than 2 months at any stage, file an RTI — see RTI for PMAY instalment delay.

PMAY-Urban 2.0 has its own portal at pmay-urban.gov.in and status check at pmaymis.gov.in. See our PMAY-Urban 2.0 status guide or apply PMAY Urban/Gramin 2026 for details.

This could mean: (a) no houses were sanctioned in your panchayat yet, (b) the panchayat was recently reorganised and data is under a different name, or © data is being updated. Contact your BDO office to verify, or file an RTI asking for the number of houses sanctioned in your panchayat under PMAY-G for the current financial year.
