The
Madhya Pradesh Housing Board was established as a body corporate
under the Madhya Pradesh Griha Nirman Mandal Adhiniyam, 1972 which
replaced the earlier similar Act of 1950.
MP Housing Board is one of the very few, perhaps the only, Housing
Board in the country, not to receive a single rupee as subsidy
from the Government. All its projects and programmes, including
its internal cross subsidies, are arranged for by the economics of
the project itself, in consonance with what the market can bear.
