I have a free hold plot for which I have obtained permission from my deptt. for construction over it. I have applied for H.B.A. on today, i.e. 05-12-2011. Have I delayed in applying for H.B.A.? If the grant for H.B.A. is sanctioned from the Ministry till the end of Feb. 2012 or any time before 31.03.2011 will it be released to me before the close of financial year, and If it is not sanctioned from the ministry whether my application will be considered for next financial year or I will be required to move a new application? or whether I can apply for again in the next financial year also? and in this condition can this grant be sanctioned till April 2012 or may take more time?
