Rooftop solar for Ahmedabad homes — know your DISCOM first

Start with the free bill check. Sealix explains fit; empanelled vendors and DISCOM portals handle installation and net metering.

PM Surya Ghar CFA

Central assistance commonly ₹30,000 (1 kW), ₹60,000 (2 kW), up to ₹78,000 for eligible 3 kW+ residential systems via pmsuryaghar.gov.in. Select Gujarat and the exact DISCOM printed on your bill. National guide: PM Surya Ghar.

Torrent Power vs GUVNL companies

• Torrent Power — large parts of Ahmedabad (and some other Gujarat cities). Follow Torrent / state rooftop workflows and empanelled-vendor rules as published for your connection.
• UGVCL / MGVCL / DGVCL / PGVCL — GUVNL group DISCOMs across Gujarat. Many residential applications move through the national portal plus DISCOM net-meter steps; state single-window portals (e.g. Surya Gujarat / GUVNL rooftop) may also appear in vendor workflows — confirm live links for your DISCOM.

Any Gujarat state top-up or discovered-rate programmes change over time. Treat flyer “extra state money” as something to verify with GEDA / DISCOM / portal before you sign.

Climate and sizing

Peak summer generation is excellent; dust soiling and extreme heat still need O&M honesty. Many mid-bill homes still land near 3 kW for CFA efficiency; upsizing to 5 kW adds unsubsidised kilowatts — see 3 kW vs 5 kW.
