G.O. Ms. No. 7, dated March 9, 2024, is the main government order behind the present Indiramma Indlu programme.

This order formally started the housing scheme for houseless families in Telangana. It provided for ₹5 lakh financial assistance per approved house as a 100 percent subsidy.

The first phase originally aimed to cover 4.5 lakh houses. A provisional allocation of 3,500 houses was planned for each Assembly constituency.

The order established the basic structure of the programme. Later circulars and decisions added rules for surveys, verification, monitoring, payments, and urban construction.

The official Indiramma portal lists several important orders connected with the scheme.

This order sanctioned 15 houses for the families of people who lost their lives in the 1981 Indravelli police firing.

It was a special sanction for affected families and should not be confused with the normal statewide beneficiary selection process.

This order introduced Aadhaar authentication for beneficiaries under the relevant provisions of the Aadhaar Act.

Aadhaar is used to verify identity, reduce duplicate claims, and improve the delivery of housing benefits.

Applicants should ensure that their Aadhaar name matches their bank account, Food Security Card, and housing application.

This order provided for Indiramma committees at Gram Panchayat and municipal ward levels.

These local committees support beneficiary identification and scheme implementation. However, their recommendations are still subject to verification and administrative approval.

This order sanctioned 863 houses for land losers affected by the Kakatiya Mega Textile Park in Warangal.

The houses were sanctioned under the State Reserve Quota, with certain normal eligibility conditions relaxed.

This order sanctioned 496 houses for families displaced by the Mid Manair Reservoir project.

Each approved house was linked with ₹5 lakh assistance under the State Reserve Quota. Eligibility conditions were relaxed for the affected project-displaced families.

One of the most useful changes for urban applicants came through G.O. Ms. No. 69, issued on October 22, 2025.

Earlier, many urban families could not build a standard 400-square-foot house because their plots were too small. The revised rule allows eligible beneficiaries to construct a ground-plus-one, or G+1, house in urban areas.

The main conditions include:

The ₹5 lakh assistance continues to be released in phases based on construction progress.

Applicants with small plots should get the plan approved before beginning work. They should not assume that every two-storey design is automatically accepted.

The government has also decided to address incomplete houses sanctioned under earlier housing programmes.

According to the Cabinet announcement, assistance may be provided for houses started during the earlier Congress period but left unfinished.

The reported support includes:

These amounts apply to specific categories of unfinished houses. They should not be confused with the normal ₹5 lakh assistance for a newly sanctioned Indiramma house.

Affected families should wait for individual identification and approval instead of beginning work based only on a general announcement.

The official district guidance lists four construction-linked instalments.

Construction stage	Payment
Basement completed	₹1,00,000
Walls reach roof level	₹1,00,000
Roof slab completed	₹2,00,000
House completed in all respects	₹1,00,000
Total	₹5,00,000

An inspection is normally required before each payment is processed. An engineer or authorised official may visit the site, take photographs, record the location, and update the construction stage.

Beneficiaries should inform the local housing official as soon as a stage is completed. Important work should not be covered before the inspection takes place.

Never pay an unofficial person who promises faster sand delivery.

After the mobile survey and physical verification, applications were placed into different working

The Indiramma Indlu mobile application is used by officials to verify applications and monitor construction.

The survey process can include:

A PMU circular issued in February 2025 clearly instructed officials that houses should be grounded only after administrative sanction.

Therefore, applicants should not begin construction simply because their names appear in an L1 list or local display.

The official district guidance lists the following broad conditions:

Final eligibility is decided through official verification. A ration card or Aadhaar card alone does not guarantee selection.

Applicants can check their records through the official Indiramma Indlu portal.

The application search facility allows a search using:

The result may show application, survey, land, eligibility, sanction, or payment information.

Applicants should also confirm the status with the Gram Panchayat, municipality, ward office, MPDO office, or district housing office.
