Aspects of the present disclosure provide techniques and apparatus for multicast/broadcast for enhanced machine type communications (eMTC) and/or narrowband internet-of-things (NB-IoT). In one aspect, a method is provided which may be performed by a wireless device such as a user equipment (UE), which can be a low cost device such as an eMTC UE or NB-IoT device. The method generally includes determining at least one narrowband region of a wideband region for receiving at least one of: multicast information or broadcast information in at least one subframe; and receiving the at least one of: the multicast information or the broadcast information in the determined at least one narrowband region in the at least one subframe.
