MHADA extends Pune housing lottery deadline to October 30
The Story in Brief
The Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Authority (MHADA) has pushed the application deadline for its Pune housing schemes to October 30, the third such extension. The earlier cut-off was October 22. The delay follows requests from applicants and holds in document verification through the MahaIT portal, which checks domicile and income certificates uploaded on the IHLMS 2.0 online system.
The extension applies to the 15 per cent Social Housing Scheme and the 20 per cent Inclusive Housing Scheme under the Pune Housing and Area Development Board. So far, 2,11,414 people have registered, while 1,41,417 have paid the advance amount. Authorities have urged applicants to submit forms well before the revised deadline to avoid last-minute issues.
Indian Opinion Analysis
The deadline extension, the third such move, signals that document verification through the MahaIT portal remains the primary bottleneck for MHADA's Pune lottery. More than a third of registered applicants have yet to pay the advance amount, suggesting that verification delays may prevent them from qualifying before the revised cut-off. The success of the IHLMS 2.0 portal, which processes domicile and income certificates, will determine whether October 30 is a real end date or a prelude to a fourth extension. If the backlog clears, the final draw can proceed, if not, the scheme risks losing momentum among applicants who have already registered twice.
