The Maharashtra Housing and Area Development Authority (MHADA) came into existence in 1977. It now controls and coordinates 7 regional housing boards in Mumbai, Pune, Nashik, Amravati, Aurangabad, Nagpur, and Konkan. It also controls and coordinates two special boards called the Mumbai Slum Improvement Board and the Mumbai Building Repairs and Reconstruction Board. In Mumbai alone, it has constructed more than 3 lakh housing units.
The Maharashtra Housing Development Corporation was formed by the Government of Maharashtra with the main objective of constructing 5 lakh affordable housing across the state by the year 2022. It is now called "MahaHousing".
