"SWAMIH funding provides adequate capital along with constant and direct supervision of project expenditure to ensure project completion. SWAMIH funding also serves as a catalyst for additional cash flows through increased collections and sales," the finance ministry said in a series of tweets.
Project was stressed due to paucity of cash flows. Funding commitment by GOI’s SWAMIH Fund has resulted in the project’s revival, providing relief to distressed homebuyers and direct employment to more than 250 people, the ministry tweeted.
In October 2021, SWAMIH Investment Fund I has made a complete exit from its investment in Mumbai's CCI Rivali Park Wintergreen housing project.
In November 2019, the central government launched the SWAMIH Investment Fund to help complete over 1,500 stalled housing projects, including those that have been declared non-performing assets (NPAs) or had been admitted for insolvency proceedings. The move was to help 4.58 lakh housing units across the country. Only RERA-registered projects with a positive net worth are to be provided funding.
