Background to the project
The Minister for Housing and Urban Development announced in the Legislative Assembly on 1 September 2021 that the Tamil Nadu Housing Board would develop 82 plots in the Athur scheme area for public benefit. That announcement referred to an estimated cost of ₹4 crore.
The Managing Director later requested administrative approval for ₹5.64 crore, including land cost, through a letter dated 13 October 2021. The Tamil Nadu Housing Board approved the proposal under agenda number 4.03 dated 20 October 2021. The Government Order was issued with the Finance Department's concurrence dated 2 November 2021.
Relevance to buyers and owners
Government Order (Ms.) Number 127 authorises project development and expenditure. It does not provide an application process, buyer eligibility conditions, individual plot prices, an allotment schedule or a possession date. A person interested in buying one of the 82 plots would therefore need separate information from the Tamil Nadu Housing Board about sale or allotment arrangements.
