Suraksha Smart City to Deliver 5,868 PMAY Homes in Vasai

09 Feb 2026 CW Team

Suraksha Smart City is set to begin the phased delivery of 5,868 Economically Weaker Section (EWS) homes in Vasai during calendar year 2026 under the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY). The handover will be undertaken building-wise across Phase 1, marking one of the largest PMAY-linked township deliveries in the Mumbai Metropolitan Region.

The milestone reinforces the developer’s commitment to the Government of India’s ‘Housing for All’ mission and highlights Vasai’s growing role as a residential hub within the Mumbai 4.0 growth framework. The large-scale delivery is expected to contribute meaningfully to the affordable housing ecosystem in the region.

The project has been developed using advanced precast construction technologies supported by extensive mechanisation. A first-of-its-kind 3D casting module has been deployed to enable consistent quality control and faster execution, supporting timely delivery of homes built to defined standards.

Commenting on the development, Jash Panchamia, Promoter, Suraksha Smart City, said, “Delivering homes at this scale under PMAY represents more than a construction achievement. It reflects our belief that affordability should never come at the cost of quality or planning. We have focused on innovation and disciplined execution to create long-term value for residents while contributing to the region’s urban growth.”

The 1 BHK PMAY homes are priced at Rs 22.5 lakh and allow beneficiaries to combine personal contribution with a direct government subsidy of Rs 2.5 lakh, improving affordability for first-time buyers. Select buildings have already applied for Occupation Certificates, and homebuyers have begun site inspections.

Located within walking distance of Vasai Railway Station, Suraksha Smart City offers access to essential infrastructure and township amenities. The phased commencement of PMAY home deliveries is expected to add momentum to inclusive housing development across the Mumbai Metropolitan Region.
