MHADA Konkan Lottery 2026: 1,000 Affordable Homes Priced from Rs 20 Lakh Ahead of Diwali

Konkan Board Housing Lottery to Offer Budget Homes Across Thane, Navi Mumbai and Nearby Cities

The Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Authority (MHADA) is preparing to launch a major housing lottery through its Konkan Board, offering around 1,000 affordable homes priced between Rs 20 lakh and Rs 25 lakh. The initiative is expected to bring fresh hope to families looking for reasonably priced homes outside Mumbai.

According to the planned schedule, the MHADA Konkan Board lottery 2026 advertisement is expected to be released before Dussehra, with the computerized lottery draw likely to take place before Diwali. The housing scheme is aimed mainly at families from the very low-income and low-income groups.

MHADA Konkan Lottery Homes to Cost Rs 20 Lakh to Rs 25 Lakh

The upcoming lottery will include homes located across several important urban areas, including Thane, Navi Mumbai, Kalyan-Dombivli and Vasai-Virar. With prices starting at around Rs 20 lakh, the scheme could provide an affordable alternative for families who find Mumbai's property prices difficult to manage.

The Konkan Board is currently completing the necessary preparations for the approximately 1,000 available homes. The detailed advertisement will provide information about the locations, flat sizes, eligibility requirements, application dates and other conditions.

Konkan Board Lottery Could Bring Diwali Cheer for Homebuyers

The timing of the lottery is expected to make the scheme especially attractive for homebuyers. With the draw planned before Diwali, successful applicants could see the housing opportunity as a major step toward owning their first home.

The demand for MHADA homes has remained strong because the authority's lottery schemes generally offer properties at prices lower than many private-market options. The upcoming Konkan Board scheme is therefore expected to receive significant interest from eligible applicants.

Sanjeev Jaiswal Oversees MHADA's Housing Push

Under the leadership of IAS Sanjeev Jaiswal, Vice President and Chief Executive Officer of MHADA, the authority has continued to focus on improving access to affordable housing and making housing-related processes more transparent and accessible for citizens.

However, the number of homes available through the Konkan Board has been affected by a recent government decision concerning the 20% housing component received from private developers. Instead of these homes being directly distributed through MHADA, the government has decided to route them through the respective municipal bodies.

1,000 Homes Expected to Be Announced Before Dussehra

Preparations for the Konkan Board lottery are currently underway. The advertisement for around 1,000 homes is expected before Dussehra, followed by the computerized draw before Diwali.

For families searching for affordable housing in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region and surrounding areas, the upcoming MHADA Konkan Board lottery could offer a valuable opportunity to move closer to their dream of owning a home.
