How Much Subsidy Can You Claim?

System Size Central Subsidy Best For (Monthly Consumption)
1 kW ₹30,000 0–150 units/month
2 kW ₹60,000 150–300 units/month
3 kW and above ₹78,000 (maximum cap) 300+ units/month

The subsidy is ₹30,000 per kW for the first 2 kW and ₹18,000 for the third kW, capped at ₹78,000. Systems larger than 3 kW are welcome — you get maximum generation plus the full ₹78,000 — but the subsidy does not increase beyond 3 kW. The amount is transferred directly (DBT) to your bank account after commissioning and inspection.

Gujarat note: GEDA has historically offered additional state-level incentives on top of the central subsidy. Our team confirms the latest applicable benefit for your DISCOM at survey time.

Owned house with suitable shadow-free roof area (~100 sq. ft. per kW).

No previous solar subsidy availed on the same connection.

Installation through an MNRE/DISCOM-registered vendor using ALMM-approved modules — which Praveg Solar uses.

Subsidy FAQs

Common Questions, Answered

Is the subsidy a discount or a refund?
It's a Direct Benefit Transfer credited to your bank account after commissioning — you pay the vendor and receive the subsidy from the government afterward.
I want a 5 kW system — what subsidy do I get?
₹78,000, the maximum cap. Larger systems earn more through higher generation, not a higher subsidy amount.
How long does the subsidy take to arrive?
Typically around 30 days after inspection and commissioning-report submission, subject to DISCOM processing times.
Can tenants apply?
The connection must be in the applicant's name. Owner-consent structures are possible — ask our team during the site survey.
Do batteries increase the subsidy?
No — the central subsidy is calculated on solar PV capacity only.
