Life in defence is of discipline, of dedication, of fitness, and of course, of pride! Defence personnel tend to lead an active and healthy life even after retirement. They keep themselves fit with a wide range of physical activities, but it is seldom possible in generally crowded cities, with alarmingly dangerous levels of pollution and ruthless traffic.
In order to help the current as well as retired defence personnel to buy a house of their choice, in a location that suits their lifestyle, there is a wide range of benefits that they can avail of while buying a house in India. Certain of these benefits are provided by the government and a few others by the builders as well as banks.
Some of these benefits include –
Introduced by the State Government of Kerala, this grant is for the disabled Ex-servicemen boarded out and widows and dependents of jawans died in harness. The amount of the grant is Rs 1,00,000/-
Preference is given to ex-servicemen while the allotment of houses under the State Government Housing Scheme
- Allotment of NGO Quarters

- Land Assignment
- 1/20th of the available/assignable land in each district is reserved for assignment to Ex-servicemen.
- Under Rule 11 (3) of the Kerala Land Assignment Rule, 10% of the area available for assignment in each village is reserved for assignment to Ex-Servicemen for cultivation, house site and beneficial usage
