 +**Quick answer.** //IAY// (Indira Awas Yojana) ran from 1985 to March 2016. **In April 2016 it was merged into PMAY-G** (Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana — Gramin) and all active IAY records were migrated to the unified **AwaasSoft** database. Today, queries like //iay//, //iay/pmayg beneficiary//, //iay.nic//, //iay/pmayg beneficiary status//, //iay/pmayg beneficiary report//, and //iay/pmayg beneficiary gramin// all point to the **same beneficiary database** — at [[https://pmayg.nic.in|pmayg.nic.in]] (also at //awaassoft.nic.in//). The portal kept the //IAY/PMAYG// label so legacy applicants can still find their pre-2016 records using their original IAY registration numbers.

 +
 +===== Why IAY queries land here =====
 +
 +  * **iay.nic.in** — the original IAY portal URL — now redirects to **pmayg.nic.in**.
 +  * **iay** — short for Indira Awas Yojana — the predecessor scheme.
 +  * **iay/pmayg** — the AwaasSoft system label that bridges the merger.
 +
 +If you applied under IAY before April 2016 and your application was still active at that point, your record is in PMAY-G's AwaasSoft database. If you applied for housing assistance after April 2016, you're a PMAY-G beneficiary directly.
 +
 +===== How to check IAY/PMAYG beneficiary status =====
 +
 +==== Step 1 — Open the unified portal ====
 +
 +  - Go to [[https://pmayg.nic.in|pmayg.nic.in]] (or //awaassoft.nic.in// — same database).
 +  - Click **Stakeholders** in the top menu.
 +  - Click **IAY/PMAYG Beneficiary**.
 +
 +==== Step 2 — Pick your search method ====
 +
 +**By IAY Registration Number** — if you have your old IAY number from before 2016:
 +  - Enter the number in the search field.
 +  - Click //Submit//.
 +
 +**By PMAY-G Registration Number** — for any post-2016 application:
 +  - Enter the 12-digit number.
 +  - Click //Submit//.
 +
 +**By Aadhaar** — works for both legacy IAY and current PMAY-G:
 +  - Click //Advanced Search//.
 +  - Enter Aadhaar number (12 digits).
 +  - Optional: State + Year.
 +  - Click //Search//.
 +
 +**By name** — when you've forgotten registration number AND Aadhaar isn't linked:
 +  - Click //Advanced Search//.
 +  - Pick State → District → Block → Panchayat.
 +  - Enter name + father's name.
 +  - Click //Search//.
 +
 +==== Step 3 — Read your record ====
 +
 +The beneficiary record shows:
 +  * Identification: name, father's name, gender, age, photograph.
 +  * Sanction details: order number, date, scheme variant (PMAY-G plain / hill / NE / tribal).
 +  * Instalment status: 1st (Rs ~35,000), 2nd, 3rd, completion.
 +  * Geo-tag photographs: foundation → plinth → lintel → roof → completion.
 +  * Bank account (masked).
 +
 +===== IAY/PMAYG Beneficiary Report =====
 +
 +For the **village-wise IAY/PMAYG beneficiary report**:
 +
 +  - Open [[https://pmayg.nic.in|pmayg.nic.in]].
 +  - Click **Reports** (top menu) → **Social Audit Reports** → **Beneficiary details for verification**.
 +  - Select State → District → Block → Panchayat → Year.
 +  - Click //Get Report//.
 +  - Use //Excel// or //PDF// (top-right) to download.
 +
 +The same report covers both IAY (legacy) and PMAY-G (current) records — they're stored in one unified table.
 +
 +===== IAY/PMAYG Beneficiary Gramin (rural-only) =====
 +
 +PMAY-G is **only** for rural households. The "Gramin" suffix in queries like //iay/pmayg beneficiary gramin// or //pmayg nic in gramin list// refers to PMAY-Gramin (rural). For **urban housing**, the scheme is **PMAY-Urban / PMAY-U 2.0** — a completely separate database at [[https://pmay-urban.gov.in|pmay-urban.gov.in]].
 +

 +===== If your IAY application is still pending =====
 +
 +If your IAY application from before 2016 was approved but you never received the final instalment (or your house construction was incomplete), the application is likely flagged as //Reverted// or //Inactive// in AwaasSoft. To activate it:
 +
 +  - Visit your **Block Development Officer (BDO)** with your IAY sanction order copy.
 +  - Submit an **Awaas+ self-survey** at //pmayg.nic.in// to bring your details up to date with current SECC + Awaas+ standards.
 +  - File an [[:rti-for-pmay-status|RTI to BDO]] asking the current status of your IAY case and the reason for its Reverted/Inactive flag.
 +
 +===== Frequently asked questions =====
 +
 +==== Is IAY still running in 2026? ====
 +
 +No. IAY ran from 1985 to March 2016 and was officially subsumed into PMAY-G on **1 April 2016**. The IAY name persists only in the legacy AwaasSoft search label and in older sanction orders.
 +
 +==== I have an IAY sanction letter from 2014 but never received the second instalment. What now? ====
 +
 +Your application is in AwaasSoft as an //IAY// or //IAY/PMAYG// record. Look it up by your old IAY registration number at //pmayg.nic.in → Stakeholders → IAY/PMAYG Beneficiary//. If the status shows //Reverted// or //Pending Verification//, file an RTI to your BDO with your sanction order copy attached.
 +
 +==== Why does the URL iay.nic.in still work? ====
 +
 +It redirects to pmayg.nic.in. NIC kept the legacy URL alive specifically because rural applicants still type //iay.nic.in// from memory.
 +
 +==== What's the difference between iay/pmayg beneficiary and pmayg beneficiary? ====
 +
 +None — they're searches against the same database. //IAY/PMAYG// is the AwaasSoft label that covers both legacy and current applications.
 +
 +==== Can I apply for IAY today? ====
 +
 +No. Apply for **PMAY-G** instead, via your Gram Panchayat or via the Awaas+ self-survey at [[https://pmayg.nic.in|pmayg.nic.in]].
 +
 +===== Apply for a PMAY-CLSS home loan (urban) =====
 +
 +If you're an **urban** applicant looking for an interest-subsidy home loan under **PMAY-U / CLSS** (or its 2024 ISS successor under PMAY-U 2.0), check direct lender pages:
 +
 +  * **HDFC Home Loans (PMAY-CLSS / ISS)** — [[https://www.hdfc.com/housing-loans|hdfc.com/housing-loans]]
 +  * **SBI Home Loans** — [[https://homeloans.sbi/|homeloans.sbi]]
 +  * **LIC Housing Finance** — [[https://www.lichousing.com|lichousing.com]]
 +
 +PMAY-G (rural) does **not** use bank loans — it pays direct subsidy to the beneficiary's bank account in instalments.
