If you live in a village in Assam and applied for a pucca house under the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana – Gramin (PMAY-G), you may still be wondering where you stand. The PMAY-G Waiting List, also called the Permanent Waiting List (PWL), is the official record that shows exactly this.
This guide explains everything in simple English: what the waiting list is, the new official website you must use in 2026, how to check your name for any district in Assam, how to download the PDF, and what to do if your name is missing.
The PMAY-G Waiting List, officially called the Permanent Waiting List (PWL), is a ranked list of rural families in Assam who are considered eligible for a house under PMAY-G but are still waiting for their turn to be sanctioned. The list is built from the Socio-Economic Caste Census (SECC-2011) data and updated further through the Awaas+ survey.
Why is this list important?
- It tells you whether your family is officially recognised as eligible.
- It shows your approximate position, based on deprivation and priority criteria.
- It helps you understand why some neighbours received approval earlier than others.
Important: The Portal Has Moved to a New Website
This is one of the most important updates for 2026. The old PMAY-G website, pmayg.nic.in, has been retired, and all data, including the Assam waiting list, has moved to a new official domain under the Department of Rural Development.
Old vs new official addresses
| Purpose | Old Address (No Longer Working) | Current Official Address |
|---|---|---|
| Main PMAY-G portal | pmayg.nic.in | pmayg.dord.gov.in |
| Beneficiary search | awaassoft.nic.in | awaassoft.pmayg.dord.gov.in |
| Reports and waiting list | rhreporting.nic.in | report.pmayg.dord.gov.in |
Please bookmark the new address. If you see old links in saved bookmarks, old articles, or forwarded messages, they may no longer open. Always confirm you are on a domain ending in dord.gov.in, which belongs to the Department of Rural Development, Government of India.

Permanent Waiting List vs Beneficiary List: Know the Difference
Many people confuse these two lists. Here is a simple comparison.

| Based on | SECC-2011 data with deprivation ranking | Actual approvals issued by the department |
| Purpose | Shows your position and future chances | Shows your current house status and payments |
| Should you check both? | Yes, if your name is not yet sanctioned | Yes, once you expect approval or payment |
What decides your position on the list?
| Priority Factor | Example |
|---|---|
| Households with no adult member | Except a member with disability |
| Female-headed households | No adult male member in the family |
| Disabled member, no able-bodied adult | Higher priority as per deprivation criteria |
