The summarization of the performance for the current year
has been made on the basis of the activities / projects
undertaken in the various areas such as Housing, Rural
Housing, Retail Housing (Hudco Niwas), Urban
Infrastructure, Training & Research & Consultancy, Design
& Development, Community Development, Human
Resource Development, Resource Mobilisation etc. which
are given below:-
6.1.6 Housing
HUDCO’s housing operations have a major social
orientation with HUDCO having a clear-cut mandate to
provide financial support for affordable shelter to the EWS /
LIG categories. Cumulatively Over 91.78% of the dwelling
units sanctioned by HUDCO have thus benefited the EWS &
LIG groups. The other significant provisions that help the
poor in gaining access to shelter include:
• Lower interest rates for EWS categories.
• Lower the unit cost, higher is HUDCO’s loan component.
• Longer repayment period for EWS categories.
6.1.7 Cumulative Operations
Cumulatively (upto 31.12.2010), HUDCO has sanctioned a
total loan amount of `108725crore for construction of
`142.74 lakh dwelling units, out of which `132.93 lakh
dwellings have been sanctioned under EWS & LIG
categories includes sanctioned loans of `3955 crore for
383378 units under HUDCO Niwas.
6.1.8 Major Initiatives towards Increased Social Housing
Operations
In line with the expectation of the Ministry, HUDCO has
been making significant efforts towards improving the
contribution for the social housing sector. Towards making
the interest rate for social housing more competitive,
HUDCO has taken a major initiative in August 2009, to
reduce the interest rates applicable to the social housing
sector covering Economically Weaker Sections (EWS) and
Page 4
P a g e | 71
Low Income Groups (LIG) to 7% to 7.50% This is effective
from 24th August, 2009. It is highlighted that this rate is
probably the lowest in the market, it is lower than its
borrowing cost, and does not include its
administrative/overhead costs. This rate of interest for social
housing has also been popularized through formal
advertisements in print media, in electronic media in popular
web-sites such as whispersinthecorridors.com and
sarkari.com, and more importantly, by personal meeting by
the Regional Heads with the concerned Housing Secretaries
and the CEOs of the Housing agencies in the States. The
substantial reduction in the interest rates has definitely sent a
positive signal in the field.
6.1.9 Extending Affordable Housing Finance
In addition, towards promoting affordable housing projects,
HUDCO charges 1% to 3% lesser interest rate for affordable
housing projects. Further, under its HUDCO Niwas window
(retail lending), a 0.75% reduction in fixed interest rate for
women beneficiaries is being extended.
6.1.10 Scheme for Land Acquisition and Development of New
Human Settlement
HUDCO’s loan assistance is available for acquisition as well
as development of land. The scheme will help the housing
agencies to orient their activities as “promoters” of houses.
It is envisaged that after land development stage, the public
agencies may act as a catalyst and accelerate total
development of the new human settlements and may
undertake construction of only EWS / LIG housing. The rest
of the developed land could be made available to cooperative
sector, private builders, individuals etc., and some part could
be reserved for shelterless service population where schemes
could be implemented with the association of NGOs and
State Slum Improvement Boards.
6.1.11 HUDCO’S Contribution to Housing Programme to
Housing Programme of Govt. of India Launched during
1998-99
Under the Housing Programme of Govt. of India which was
started during 1998-99, HUDCO had been entrusted with the
work of providing loan assistance for construction of 10
Lacs units annually (6 lacs units in rural areas and 4 lacs
units in urban areas, out of the 13 lacs houses in rural areas
and 7 lacs in urban areas envisaged under the programme).
Against the same, since 1998 to 2010-11 as on (31.12.2010),
HUDCO has supported a total of 108.45 lakh units (gross) in
both rural and urban areas.
6.1.12 Valmiki Ambedkar Awas Yojana (VAMBAY)
VAMBAY and NSDP schemes have been subsumed in the
Integrated Housing Slum Development Programme
(IHSDP), which was launched on 3rd December 2005.
Page 5

As per progress reports received from agencies, 442283 DUs
are completed & 8770 DUs are under progress and 63819
toilet seats are completed & 1333 toilet seats are under
progress.
6.1.13 Jawaharlal Nehru National Urban Renewal Mission
(JNNURM)
JNNURM was launched by the Govt. of India in December
2005 to encourage creation of financially sustainable
inclusive cities. The objective of the Mission is to give
focused attention to planned development of identified cities
including peri-urban areas, out growths and urban corridors
to foster dispersed urbanization, ensure adequate funds to
meet the deficiencies in urban infrastructural services,
provide basic services to the urban poor including security of
tenure at affordable prices, improved housing, water supply
and sanitation, ensure delivery of other existing universal
services of the Government for education, health and social
security and establishment of linkages between asset-
creation and asset-management.
The Basic Services for Urban Poor (BSUP) and Integrated
Housing and Slum Development Program (IHSDP) under
JNNURM are dealt by the Ministry of Housing and Urban
Poverty Alleviation.
6.1.14 Basic Services to the Urban Poor (BSUP)
I. Background
The programme for Basic Services to the Urban Poor was
launched with a view to ameliorate the conditions of the
urban slum dwellers who are residing in dilapidated
conditions in the 65 identified mission cities.
The basic objective of the scheme is to strive for holistic
slum development with a healthy and enabling urban
environment by providing adequate shelter and basic
infrastructure facilities to the urban slum dwellers. The main
thrust is to ensure improvement in urban governance so that
urban local bodies/parastatal agencies become financially
sound with enhanced credit rating and ability to access
market capital for undertaking new programmes.
To achieve this objective, State Governments, Urban Local
Bodies and para statal agencies will be required to accept
implementation of an agenda of reforms. The project
proposal must meet a defined 7 point charter covering land
Page 6
P a g e | 73
tenure, housing, water supply, sanitation, health, education
and social security.
II. Financing pattern
The Central and State share is in the ratio of 50:50 for the
cities having population more than one million. In case of
other cities (except North Eastern States and Jammu and
Kashmir) the ratio is 80:20 and for North Eastern States and
Jammu and Kashmir the ratio is 90:10.
6.1.15 Integrated Housing and Slum Development Programme
(IHSDP)
I. Background
The Integrated Housing and Slum Development Programme
(IHSDP) was launched with a view to ameliorate the
dilapidated living conditions of the urban slum dwellers
covering all the towns except the 65 identified mission cities
covered under the programme for Basic Services for the
Urban Poor (BSUP).
The existing Valmiki Ambedkar Awas Yojana (VAMBAY)
and the discontinued National Slum Development
Programme (NSDP) are subsumed in the IHSDP, to strive
for holistic slum development with a healthy and enabling
urban environment by providing adequate shelter and basic
infrastructure facilities to the urban slum dwellers. The main
thrust is to ensure improvement in urban governance so that
urban local bodies / para statal agencies become financially
sound with enhanced credit rating and ability to access
market capital for undertaking new programmes. The project
proposal must meet a defined 7 point charter i.e. land tenure,
housing, water supply, sanitation, health, education and
social security.
II. Financing pattern
Under the scheme, the Central and State share is in the ratio
of 80:20 but for special category States (North Eastern States
and Hilly States i.e. HP, J&K, Uttaranchal and Sikkim) the
funding pattern between Centre and States will be in the ratio
of 90:10. The ceiling cost for a dwelling unit is `1,00,000
per unit. For special category / hilly States and difficult / far
flung areas, 12.5% additional cost is permissible over and
above the prescribed ceiling cost per dwelling unit.
6.1.16 HUDCO’S Role in Generation of BSUP / IHSDP Projects
HUDCO in conformity with its emphasis on providing
Housing for Economically Weaker Sections and
disadvantaged populace is playing a very significant role by

6.1.18 Organistaion Network & Human Resource Development
I. With the emerging new scenario and competitive
environment, HUDCO’s approach has been to increase
professional inputs in shelter and infrastructure projects at all
stages of the project cycle. To achieve this, HUDCO utilizes
professional skills available in house as well as elsewhere in
the country. The total human resource strength of HUDCO
as on 31.12.2010 is 999, out of which 681 are executives
with multi-disciplinary professional backgrounds of finance,
law, architecture, civil, PHE, urban and regional planning,
environmental and transport specialization, community
development, systems, economics, real estate development,
human resource, public relation, documentation etc.
II. From being an organization that operated only from its
Corporate Office in Delhi till 1983, with a view to ensure its
speedy services to all regions, HUDCO has laid emphasis on
decentralization of its activities. HUDCO has spread its
wings to develop a closer and stronger rapport with the
agencies in various States and to identify new ones in
different regions.
III. HUDCO is making profit since its inception and based on
the performance, the HUDCO Board of Directors in its 241st
meeting held on 17.11.1997 had reviewed the various criteria
required for seeking Mini-ratna status to HUDCO based on
the guidelines issued by the Government on the subject
Page 10
P a g e | 77
matter. Accordingly recommendations were forwarded to the
Ministry for conferring Mini-Ratna status to HUDCO.
HUDCO was granted Mini-Ratna status with respect to
Financial and Operational Autonomy during the year 2004.
IV. Besides the operational heads both in the Corporate Office
and the Regions, there are key-positions of Sr. Executive
Directors/ Executive Directors which are specialized posts in
areas like Resources Management, Consultancy, Social
Housing, Core Infrastructure, Real Estate, Power &
Transport, Internal Audit, Law, HRMA, IT, Research &
Training, Property Management and Vigilance.
V. The ever-changing business environment calls for more
responsive and innovative approaches to stay in the
competitive market. HUDCO, accordingly, keeps reorienting
its corporate strategies to achieve the corporate goals with
changing times. With a view to enhance competitive
capabilities of its human resources, 594 employees were
nominated/sponsored for training both in India and abroad
during the year 2010-11 (upto 31st December, 2010). As on
31st December, 2010 the total employee strength was 999
comprising of 681 executives and 318 non executives. The
total number of women employees as on 31st December,
2010 was 279. HUDCO also continued its efforts to promote
gender equality and empowerment of women employees to
ensure their best contribution.
VI. The Corporation continued to follow the Government
policies on reservation for SCs/STs/OBCs. Out of the total
strength, there were 181 SCs, 60 STs, 82 OBCs, 17
physically handicapped and 27 ex-servicemen. HUDCO
continued to maintain good industrial relations with its
employees.
VII. With reference to Ministry of Personnel Public Grievances
and Pension order dated July 2001, HUDCO has adopted
Citizen Charter where details of activities undertaken have
been taken care of. The Citizen Charter has been put on
HUDCO Website for publicity and awareness.
6.1.19 Consultancy and Project Management Initiatives
I. Apart from the techno-economic mandate given to HUDCO,
a distinct thrust has been extended to the fee based
consultancy by utilizing its inherent strength of technical
personnel, long experience and expertise in the fields of
Architecture, Designing and Planning. During the financial
year, HUDCO has been involved in showcasing various
facets of consultancy services, thereby contributing to the
overall image building of HUDCO.
II. With a view to enhancing the fee-based activities of
HUDCO, it has developed proficiency in the area of
preparation of Detailed Project Reports for housing/slum
development as well as infrastructure development in
various cities and towns. During the year 2009-10, HUDCO
Page 11
P a g e | 78
has undertaken the work of preparation of DPRs under
BSUP and IHSDP schemes of JNNURM, for Meerut,
Hastinapur, Malegaon, Bangaluru. Further, appraisal of
project reports for funding/approval by the Government for
projects under JNNURM programme have been undertaken.
HUDCO has also undertaken the assignment of Project
Management Consultancy in Patna.
III. As a gesture of appreciation for the consultancy services
provided for Pilgrimage cum Cultural Centre at Sikkim, the
Govt. of Sikkim had further entrusted additional works to
HUDCO. The Hon’ble Minister for Housing and Urban
Poverty Alleviation had visited Sikkim in The month of
December 2009 and praised the project and lauded the
efforts of D&D Wing for the same. HUDCO is also involved
in the Preparation of a Tourism Plan for Yamuna Nagar,
Panchkula and Paonta Sahib Tourism Circuit. The plan
entails the identification of tourist destination in the above
districts and developing these destinations by providing new
tourist attractions and basic tourist amenities to improve the
visitors experience.
IV. The project for Archaeological Survey of India has been
revived with the efforts of HUDCO and it is being designed
as a demonstration project in heritage conservation and
energy efficiency.
V. In addition, HUDCO is providing Comprehensive
Architectural Services for the development of its own plots
at NOIDA and Regional Office Buildings at Jaipur etc. The
Institutional Complex at Noida, is also being developed as a
prestigious project, at the same time.
VI. HUDCO has prepared Master Plans for major cities in Bihar
and Jharkhand. Further, it has prepared the Urban
Development Strategy for the state of Jharkhand. The City
Development plans for selected cities of Bihar has also been
initiated.
VII. Currently, HUDCO is gearing to provide consultancy
assistance to the states and urban local bodies for slum free
city planning as per the RAY programme launched by the
Ministry.
VIII. Another significant initiative of HUDCO towards
diversification of its sphere of fee based consultancy
activities is the decentralization of its consultancy activities
to the Regional Offices. With this initiative, many of the
Regional Offices such as Chennai, Jaipur, Chandigarh, Patna
and Kohima have started showing good potential for
undertaken consultancy/fee based assignments at the
Regional level. At present, a large number of consultancy
assignments pertaining to Social Housing and Tourism
Development Projects are being undertaken, having a spread
of almost crisscrossing the, Puducherry state and other areas,
by HUDDO’s Chennai Regional Office. Further initiatives in
Page 12
P a g e | 79
terms of exploring projects under Govt. of India scheme
RAY (Rajiv Awas Yojana) are being taken and HUDCO is
likely to get a large number of project under the same
keeping in view the technical expertise and talent pool
available in HUDCO.
6.1.20 Human Settlement Management Institute (HSMI)
I. HSMI is functioning as Research & Training Division of
HUDCO and its activities are supported by a core group of
qualified and experienced professionals from various
disciplines. HSMI has continued its efforts to provide
capacity building to the professional engaged in the Housing
