    1. After recieiving the allotment , have a visit at the MHADA office for more details regarding the alloted flat details. For getting a housing loan NOC, you have to confirm the bank from whom you would be taking the loan. The details of the bank loan amount, and property details have to be provided to MHADA in the prescribed form available at MHADA office for which you would be alloted with the NOC to be submitted to the bank.
