The Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Authority has extended the last date to apply for the MHADA Lottery 2026. The revised deadline was announced on April 28, 2026, providing applicants additional time to submit forms.
The lottery includes a wide range of affordable and premium homes across Mumbai. It follows moderate response levels seen in some earlier housing schemes.
MHADA announced the lottery in March 2026, offering a total of 2,640 residential units in Mumbai. As per data available on MHADA’s website, 1,762 homes, or around 66%, are currently under construction.
The remaining units are ready or near‑completion projects across various locations. The lottery spans multiple income categories, including EWS, LIG, MIG, and HIG.
The costliest apartment in the lottery is located in Tardeo, South Mumbai, under the HIG category. This unit is priced at ₹6.82 crore and spans 1,838 sq ft, making it the most expensive offering.
Another apartment in the same Crescent Tower project, measuring 1,520 sq ft, is priced at ₹6.77 crore. At the lower end, the most affordable unit is an EWS home in Mankhurd, priced at over ₹29 lakh.
The MHADA Lottery 2026 covers several residential areas across Mumbai. These include Vikhroli, Goregaon, Borivali, Gorai, Chembur, Bandra, Ghatkopar, Wadala, Powai, and Dadar.
The wide geographical spread allows applicants to choose homes across central, western, and island city locations. This diversity is intended to cater to varied housing needs and budgets.
As per the revised schedule issued by the Mumbai Board of MHADA, online applications are open until 11:59 pm on May 14, 2026. Applicants can pay the earnest money deposit online until 11:59 pm on May 15, 2026.
RTGS and NEFT payments will be accepted until banking hours on the same day. MHADA advised applicants to complete submissions early to avoid last‑minute issues.

Earlier, in February 2026, MHADA offered 118 homes under the First‑Come, First‑Served scheme, of which 64 were sold. Demand remained subdued for the remaining units, prompting MHADA to review pricing.
The authority is considering a 10%–20% price reduction on more than 50 unsold homes. The deadline extension and potential price revisions reflect MHADA’s efforts to improve participation and clear available housing stock.
