The Karnataka Government has introduced several housing schemes to help economically weaker and middle-class families achieve their dream of owning a house. In 2026, applications have reopened for beneficiaries to apply under these schemes. The major highlight of this initiative is that eligible applicants can receive up to ₹3,00,000 as a free subsidy for house construction. In addition, they can also avail up to ₹7 lakh as an interest-free loan to complete their home.
Key Features of the Scheme:
Under this scheme, the government provides financial assistance to families who do not own a permanent house. The ₹3 lakh grant does not need to be repaid and can be directly used for construction. If additional funds are required, applicants can opt for an interest-free loan of up to ₹7 lakh, which makes it highly beneficial compared to regular bank loans.
