Govt assistance in four instalments
The State government is providing financial assistance of ₹5 lakh to each beneficiary of Indiramma Housing Scheme to construct the houses in 400 to 600 sq. ft. The amount is released in four instalments; ₹1 lakh after completion of foundation, ₹1.75 lakh on laying slab, ₹1.75 lakh upon wall construction and the last instalment of ₹1 lakh after construction of the house is completed.
The State government releases the funds on every Monday after receiving confirmation, including a photo, of various stages of the construction.

The loans would be given to the members of the SHGs, selected as a beneficiary of the scheme, from the ₹12 crore, according to the district officials. This would be helpful in the construction, said project director of Housing Chalapathi Rao.
A total of 16,559 houses were allotted to the district. Of them, 14,529 were sanctioned. Till now, basement of 692 houses were constructed and the ₹1 lakh first installment was released to 532 beneficiaries, according to a press release issued on Monday (July 7, 2025).
