PM Surya Ghar Rooftop Solar.

Start with your home and electricity connection.

PM Surya Ghar: Muft Bijli Yojana supports eligible residential rooftop solar installations. Your electricity connection, roof access, proposed system and application must meet the applicable scheme and DISCOM requirements.

• Share a recent electricity bill and your consumer connection details.
• Confirm roof ownership or permission, available space and access for maintenance.
• Tell us about shading, building condition and any existing solar installation or subsidy claim.
• For housing societies, common facilities or a commercial connection, request a separate eligibility assessment rather than assuming the individual household rules apply.

Understand the subsidy before deciding.

The published central assistance schedule for ordinary-category residential consumers, including Rajasthan, gives the following reference amounts for eligible installations:

These are scheme reference amounts, not a quotation or subsidy approval. Confirm the applicable rules and your eligibility on the official portal before committing. Any state assistance must be checked separately; it is not included here.

Choose capacity for your usage, not just the subsidy.

We assess consumption across seasons, daytime usage, future loads, roof layout, shading and connection constraints. An annual generation estimate should state its assumptions. A smaller system may suit one home; another may benefit from capacity above the subsidy cap.

Compare the complete installed price, your payment milestones, financing costs if any, and the expected timing of assistance. Ask for a savings estimate based on your tariff and applicable billing arrangement. Do not treat an estimated generation figure as a guaranteed reduction in every bill.

Plan the financing as carefully as the system.

Participating lenders may offer rooftop-solar financing under their own eligibility and documentation rules. Before signing, compare the interest rate, tenure, margin requirement, processing charges, insurance conditions, disbursement milestones and prepayment terms.

• Ask whether disbursement is linked to installation or project milestones.
• Confirm whether the lender requires the solar asset to be insured or hypothecated in the policy schedule.
• Keep the project quotation, electricity-connection details and scheme application records ready for lender review.
• Do not treat a scheme application, vendor quotation or preliminary discussion as a loan-sanction guarantee.

Wattscore can help organise the project information a lender may request. Credit appraisal, sanction, interest rate, disbursement and loan conditions remain the lender’s decision.

From first enquiry to a working system.

1. Assessment: review your bills, location, roof and objectives.
2. Application guidance: identify the required official portal and DISCOM steps for your connection; confirm applicable approvals before installation.
3. Design and quotation: agree capacity, equipment, structure, safety provisions, exclusions and payment terms.
4. Installation: complete the agreed work and prepare project documentation.
5. Metering and commissioning: coordinate the required submissions and inspection with the DISCOM.
6. Assistance claim and handover: support the required documentation, explain monitoring and maintenance, and hand over warranties and system records.

Authority approvals, meter availability, inspection and claim processing affect the schedule. We explain the responsibilities and dependencies in the project proposal.

What Wattscore can support.

Your written proposal will distinguish included work from civil repairs, roof strengthening, elevated structures, metering charges, extra cabling and other site-specific items.
