How much is the solar panel subsidy in Delhi in 2026?
Under PM Surya Ghar: Muft Bijli Yojana, the central government pays a direct subsidy into your bank account after your rooftop solar system is installed and connected. The Delhi Solar Policy adds a state top-up on the same system, plus a generation-based incentive of ₹3 per unit your panels produce, paid for 5 years on systems up to 3 kW.
For most Delhi homes, a 3 kW rooftop solar system is the sweet spot. It costs roughly ₹1.9–2.2 lakh before subsidy, and after the combined ₹1,08,000 benefit, families typically pay around half. With Delhi tariffs at ₹6–9 per unit in the higher slabs, the system usually pays for itself in 3–5 years, and then produces low-cost power for 20 more. Together, that makes the solar panel subsidy in Delhi among the most generous in India right now.
| Rooftop system size | Central subsidy | Delhi top-up |
|---|---|---|
| 1 kW | ₹30,000 | up to ₹10,000 |
| 2 kW | ₹60,000 | up to ₹20,000 |
| 3 kW and above | ₹78,000 (max) | up to ₹30,000 (max) |
| Total for 3 kW+ | up to ₹1,08,000 + ₹3/unit for 5 years | |
Final subsidy depends on your system size, vendor, documentation and government approval. Scheme terms can change. Exact numbers for your roof are what we check, free of cost.

Rooftop solar in Delhi, your questions, answered
Is rooftop solar really free in Delhi?
No. Anyone who says "free solar" is misleading you. It is heavily subsidised: the government pays up to ₹1,08,000 of your system cost, and your panels then produce power that can offset most of your bill. You still invest the balance amount. Our service, however, is genuinely free for homeowners.
How much subsidy will I get on solar panels in Delhi?
Up to ₹78,000 from the Centre under PM Surya Ghar (₹30,000 per kW for the first 2 kW, ₹18,000 for the third), plus the Delhi government's top-up of up to ₹30,000, plus ₹3 per unit generated for 5 years on systems up to 3 kW. The exact figure depends on your system size and approvals, and that is exactly what we check for you.
Who is eligible for the solar subsidy in Delhi?
Broadly: you own the roof (or have owner/society consent), you have a working DISCOM electricity connection, and you have roughly 100 sq ft of shadow-free roof per kW. Our 2-minute form tells you where you stand.
How do I apply for PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana?
Applications go through the national PM Surya Ghar portal with your electricity connection details, and installation must be done by a registered vendor. It's exactly the paperwork most families find confusing, so our installer partners handle the application, net-metering approval and subsidy claim for you as part of the installation.
What does a 3 kW solar system cost in Delhi after subsidy?
A quality 3 kW rooftop system typically costs ₹1.9–2.2 lakh before subsidy. After the combined benefit of up to ₹1,08,000, most Delhi families pay roughly ₹1–1.2 lakh, and then save on every bill for 25 years. Final price depends on your roof, panel brand and structure.
I live in a flat or rented home, anything for me?
Individual rooftop solar needs the owner's consent. Housing societies can install under the group scheme through the RWA, worth raising at your next society meeting, and we can guide the RWA too.
How long does rooftop solar installation take in Delhi?
Typically 2–6 weeks including net-metering approval from your DISCOM. The subsidy is credited directly to the homeowner's bank account after the system is commissioned.
Which installer will call me, and can I say no?
A verified partner covering your pincode. You get their name on WhatsApp before any call, and yes, you can decline, compare, or ask us for another option. No obligation, ever.
