Important Disclaimers from CGEWHO
- Consent is sought without any commitment or obligation on CGEWHO regarding final allotment of any dwelling unit.
- Submitting consent does not create any right or claim to a firm allotment. Any allotment will depend on the formal launch of the scheme, availability of units, eligibility, terms and conditions, and completion of formalities.
- The Chief Executive Officer, CGEWHO, reserves the right to abandon the scheme / Demand Survey without assigning any reason.
- The development plan is subject to statutory approval, and the cost is tentative (±10%, GST extra).
Should Central Government Employees Consider This Scheme?
Consenting is free and carries no obligation, so it keeps your option open for the 50% reserved quota. Before you decide, it helps to think about a few points:
- Budget: a 3 BHK may land between roughly ₹1 crore and ₹1.3 crore with GST and variation. Check your eligibility for a housing loan and compare with HBA terms if you are a serving employee.
- Timeline: the scheme is not yet formally launched, so possession is not near. Treat this as a medium-term plan.
- Posting and retirement plans: a flat in Bhopal makes most sense if you plan to settle there or have family nearby.
- Risk: since CGEWHO may abandon the scheme and no allotment right is created, avoid arranging large funds until the formal launch.
