Housing Schemes

 

CIDCO, a leading institution in urban development and planning, has been one of the driving forces contributing to the success of Navi Mumbai in providing better quality houses.

All these schemes emphasizing on providing affordable houses received excellent response and was extremely successful.

The urban town planning agency has constructed about 1,23,577 of housing stock in the city, out of which 51% of housing was for EWS/LIG, while 26% were reserved for MIG and 23% was reserved for HIG. The emphasis was on providing affordable housing for EWS/LIG.

Since 1972, CIDCO has been using high-end technology for its housing project. The Corporation used load bearing composite masonry involving brickwork and RCC mullions. Innovations kept happening with various emerging technologies like Prefab Channel Slab, 3-S Siporex system, earthquake resistant technology, etc.
