Solar subsidies — questions and answers
1 discussion · answered by India's solar community
The subsidy is the most-asked-about part of going solar and the most confusing: central amounts by kilowatt, state top-ups that differ everywhere, empanelled-vendor rules, and a portal process with several stages.
The scheme itself is explained step by step on our subsidy page. This topic is for the real cases — what people were actually paid, how long it took, and how stuck claims got unstuck.
Questions this topic answers
- How much subsidy for a 3kW system in my state, after the state top-up?
- Applied 4 months ago and nothing has been credited — who do I chase?
- Can I claim the subsidy if my vendor isn't empanelled?
