The JNNURM which was initially for a seven year period (2005-2012), has been extended upto 31.03.2017 for completing on-going work only in the projects sanctioned upto 31.03.2012. RAY which was started in year 2011, has been discontinued w.e.f. 19.05.2015 and liabilities created thereunder (in respect of 183 on-going projects) have been subsumed in the new mission PMAY-HFA (U) which was launched on 25th June, 2015.
Under JNNURM, no new housing project was sanctioned in last three years as the Mission period has been extended upto 31.03.2017 only to complete ongoing projects sanctioned till 31.03.2012. Under RAY, 1,27,829 houses were sanctioned in last three years and no housing projects has been sanctioned in the current year as scheme has been discontinued.

Under Integrated Housing & Slum Development Programme (IHSDP) component of JNNURM, sharing pattern is 90:10 for NE and special category States and 80:20 for remaining cities. As per the recent instructions of Ministry of Finance, the revised sharing patterns are in the ratio 80:20 (for North Eastern and 3 Himalayan States) and 50:50 (for other States).
For RAY scheme, sharing pattern between Central and State is 50:50 for cities having population five lakh and above, 75:25 for cities having population less than five lakh and 80:20 for North Eastern (NE) States & special category States (J&K, Himachal Pradesh and Uttarakhand).
