Quick answer: MHADA is handing over Worli BDD rehabilitation flats in phases to eligible beneficiaries. Its official Worli project page publishes eligibility lists and chawl-specific allotment results. Check the notice for your old chawl and your allotted building or wing first. For possession schedules or unresolved records, contact the Worli project office at the Sumer Kendra building and follow the current MHADA instructions.
This page explains what MHADA has published and where to look. It is not an allotment list, and this site cannot check anyone’s eligibility. This site is independent and is not affiliated with MHADA.
Worli BDD redevelopment at a glance
| Item | What MHADA says |
|---|---|
| Project | Worli BDD Chawl Redevelopment Project |
| Nodal agency | MHADA |
| Implementing body | Mumbai Housing and Area Development Board (MHADA release, 20 May 2026) |
| Worli scope | 121 old chawls and 9,689 residents to be rehabilitated |
| Rehabilitation homes | Eligible residents living in 160 sq ft tenements are to receive 500 sq ft carpet area 2 BHK flats on a freehold basis at no cost, in 34 rehabilitation towers of 40 floors |
| Current position | Handover is in phases as buildings receive occupancy certificates. Individual possession depends on the applicable process. |
These figures are for Worli only. MHADA’s releases give separate numbers for N. M. Joshi Marg and Naigaon, and this page does not apply them here. The benefits above are described for eligible residents. MHADA publishes separate orders for other categories such as non-residential occupants and police quarters, so do not assume the same terms apply to them.
Who the rehabilitation flats are for
These rehabilitation allotments are for eligible tenants or beneficiaries under the applicable project rules. Living in a chawl does not by itself prove entitlement, and MHADA publishes eligibility lists for that reason. They are different from MHADA’s public lotteries for homebuyers, such as the one in our MHADA Konkan Board lottery guide, which is run by a different board for a different scheme. MHADA may use a draw to assign particular rehabilitation flats to eligible residents. This page does not cover resale or transfer, which depend on the applicable conditions.
How to check your allotment
- Open the official MHADA Worli BDD redevelopment page.
- Find the entry for your old chawl number. The page lists eligibility lists for BDD chawls, eligibility lists for other structures, a chawl-wise registration schedule and chawl-wise rehabilitation allotment results.
- Check the date on each notice and whether a later or revised result exists. The page includes entries from 2026, for example a draw result dated 23 October 2026 for chawls 62, 63, 88 and 89.
- Open the eligibility or allotment document and match the identifiers carefully.
- If the result is unclear or does not match your documents, contact the project office.
| Stage | What it means |
|---|---|
| Eligibility | Recognition as an eligible beneficiary |
| Allotment | Assignment of a particular flat |
| Possession | The handover process that follows, with its own letters and documents |
An allotment result is not automatic permission to move in.
Worli BDD handover milestones
| Date | Milestone | Source |
|---|---|---|
| 14 August 2025 | 556 rehabilitation flats in Wings D and E of Rehabilitation Building No. 1, handed over by the Chief Minister | MHADA release, 20 May 2026 and MHADA release, August 2025 |
| From 21 May 2026 | 827 flats in Wings F, G and H of Rehabilitation Building No. 1, after the occupancy certificate | MHADA release, 20 May 2026 |
| From 10 September 2026 | 574 flats in Wings B and C of Rehabilitation Building No. 1, after occupancy permission | MHADA release, 10 September 2026 |
These are announced distributions. Do not add them up and read the total as families who have moved in, because announced distribution, letters issued, possession and actual occupation are different measures. A follow-up report on the first day of the May handover is in Square Feet India.
Documents named in MHADA’s handover notices
MHADA’s May 2026 and September 2026 releases list the documents to bring when collecting allotment and possession letters. They are for the possession step, and they are not the documents that establish eligibility.
- Rehabilitation flat agreement.
- Self-attested copies of Aadhaar and PAN cards.
- For transit camp occupants, a registered and notarised undertaking on Rs 500 stamp paper.
- Three recent passport-size colour photographs.
- One postcard-size family photograph showing the members who will live in the new flat.
Residents are asked to attend in person. Follow the notice for your own building and wing, and confirm any updated requirements with the project office before you go.
Where to enquire
| Enquiry | Where to start |
|---|---|
| Eligibility or allotment record | The official Worli project page and the relevant document |
| Possession schedule or missing paperwork | The MHADA site office in the Sumer Kendra building, Worli |
| Unresolved routing enquiry | MHADA general contact: Grihanirman Bhavan, Kalanagar, Bandra (East), Mumbai 400051, phone 022-66405000 |
The releases say letters are given on working days from 11 am to 6 pm, excluding public holidays. Those are timings for that distribution process, not permanent office hours, so confirm before travelling. The phone number is MHADA’s general number and not a dedicated Worli possession line. MHADA’s releases name the building but do not give a full visitor route, so use a map app set to the Sumer Kendra building in Worli. If you travel from Navi Mumbai, see our Mumbai local train guide for services.

Allotment goes through MHADA. Do not pay anyone who offers to speed up a flat, confirm a place in a list or arrange possession.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a list online?
Yes. MHADA publishes Worli BDD eligibility lists and chawl-specific rehabilitation allotment results online. Open the official Worli project page, look for your old chawl number, building or wing and the latest notice. If your record is missing or unclear, contact the project office.
Who gets the rehabilitation flats?
Eligible tenants or beneficiaries under the applicable project rules. MHADA publishes eligibility lists, and occupation alone is not proof of entitlement.
Is this a public MHADA lottery?
No. These allotments are for eligible project beneficiaries and are different from MHADA’s public lotteries for homebuyers. MHADA may use a draw to assign particular rehabilitation flats to eligible residents.
Where are the allotment and possession letters given?
MHADA’s releases name its site office in the Sumer Kendra building, Worli, on working days from 11 am to 6 pm excluding public holidays. Follow the notice for your building and wing.
How many flats have been handed over?
MHADA announced 556 flats on 14 August 2025, 827 from 21 May 2026 and 574 from 10 September 2026. These are announced distributions and not a live total of families who have moved in.
What documents are needed?
MHADA’s May and September 2026 releases name the rehabilitation flat agreement, self-attested Aadhaar and PAN copies, an undertaking for transit camp occupants, passport photographs and a family photograph. Follow your own notice.
What if my name is missing?
Check the eligibility and allotment documents again, including any revised or later result, then contact the Worli project office or MHADA.
When will my flat be ready?
It depends on your building and wing. Individual status must come from MHADA, which announces handovers as buildings receive occupancy certificates.
