MHADA Pune Lottery 2026 — 4,186 Flats + 295 FCFS Units LIVE | Apply by 20 May 2026 | housing.mhada.gov.in

Question 1

▶What is the MHADA Pune FCFS Scheme launched May 2026?

Answer

MHADA Pune launched a First-Come-First-Served (FCFS) scheme on 4 May 2026 at 11:30 AM for 295 unsold residential units (1RK, 1BHK, 2BHK). 113 flats are under the Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) scheme and 182 flats under the Pimpri-Chinchwad (PCMC) scheme. These flats are from unsold inventory of the 20% inclusive housing and 15% social housing schemes. Unlike lottery, you book directly — but must complete payment within 48 hours of selection. Initial payment: ₹20,708 (₹20,000 deposit + ₹600 fee + ₹108 GST).

Question 2

▶What is the current MHADA Pune deadline — 20 May 2026?

Answer

20 May 2026 is the COMBINED deadline for the MHADA Pune Board's current 4,186-flat housing release covering Pune, Solapur, Sangli, and Kolhapur. This includes the FCFS scheme (295 units) and other regular lottery flats. Online payment and applications must be completed by this date. Apply at housing.mhada.gov.in immediately — do not wait for the deadline rush.

Question 3

▶What happened in MHADA Pune March 2026 lottery?

Answer

MHADA Pune Board released a fresh lottery in March 2026 for approximately 3,000 affordable homes across Pune, PCMC, and PMRDA regions. This was part of MHADA's accelerated housing delivery — the Pune Board has delivered 25,000+ units in just 30 months, the fastest growth of any MHADA regional board. The March 2026 lottery was a major event combined with the current May FCFS.

Question 4

▶FCFS vs Lottery — which is better for MHADA Pune 2026?

Answer

FCFS (First-Come-First-Served): Faster — you book the flat directly, no lottery draw, no luck involved. But you must act within 48 hours and only 295 units available (likely to fill fast). LOTTERY (4,186 flats): More choices, more locations, but random draw — application doesn't guarantee allotment. RECOMMENDATION: Apply for FCFS for guaranteed booking if a suitable flat is available, and also apply for the lottery as backup. Both via housing.mhada.gov.in.

Question 5

▶Which areas are covered under MHADA Pune Board 2026?

Answer

Pune city (Hadapsar, Kothrud, Aundh, Bavdhan, Warje, Sinhagad Road), PCMC (Pimpri, Chinchwad, Akurdi, Nigdi, Bhosari), Wakad-Hinjawadi, Wagholi, Manjari, and surrounding Pune district. New 2026 additions: Solapur, Sangli, Kolhapur (PMRDA region expansion). Locations near IT parks (Hinjawadi, Magarpatta) and metro corridors command higher demand and pricing.

Question 6

▶How to apply for MHADA Pune FCFS 295 flats?

Answer

Step 1: Visit housing.mhada.gov.in on or after 4 May 2026 (registration opened at 11:30 AM). Step 2: Register with Aadhaar + PAN + mobile. Step 3: Browse available 295 flats (113 PMC + 182 PCMC) with photos and prices. Step 4: Select your preferred 1RK / 1BHK / 2BHK unit. Step 5: Pay ₹20,708 initial booking amount within 48 hours of selection (₹20,000 deposit + ₹600 fee + ₹108 GST). Step 6: Complete documentation and balance payment as per MHADA schedule. If you miss the 48-hour window, the flat goes back to the pool.

Question 7

▶What if the FCFS scheme flat goes out of pool — can I rebook?

Answer

Yes — if your selected FCFS flat goes back to the pool after the 48-hour window (you didn't pay in time), you can re-register and try to book another available flat. However, prime flats (in PCMC, near metro) typically get re-booked by other applicants within minutes. The portal updates live availability.

Question 8

▶Can NRI apply for MHADA Pune Lottery/FCFS 2026?

Answer

Yes — NRIs with Indian citizenship who can prove Maharashtra domicile of 15+ years (anywhere in family history, not necessarily current residence) can apply for both lottery and FCFS. You'll need: Indian PAN, current address proof (overseas accepted), Maharashtra domicile certificate, income proof in INR equivalent. Many NRIs apply through a Power of Attorney to a family member in Pune to manage application, document submission, and 48-hour booking deadline.

Question 9

▶What is the EWS flat price in MHADA Pune 2026?

Answer

EWS (Economically Weaker Section) flats in MHADA Pune start from ₹14-18 lakh for 269-300 sqft (1RK to small 1BHK). Most affordable locations are PCMC (Pimpri-Chinchwad) and outer Pune township areas — 269 sqft built-up area flats with basic amenities. Prices increase for prime locations like Hadapsar, Wakad.
