Government support
Central financial assistance for residential rooftop solar, with APSPDCL / TGSPDCL notes. For the all-India walkthrough see PM Surya Ghar. Sealix explains it; you apply on the official portal.
How much
Paid as Direct Benefit Transfer to your bank after the system is commissioned — not deducted as a shop “discount” you must take on trust.
| System size | Central subsidy | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| 1 kW | ₹30,000 | ₹30,000 per kW for first 2 kW |
| 2 kW | ₹60,000 | Full amount for 2 kW |
| 3 kW or more | ₹78,000 max | ₹60,000 for first 2 kW + ₹18,000 for 3rd kW; ceiling ₹78,000 |
Andhra Pradesh and Telangana currently rely on this central amount unless a state top-up is announced — rules can change. Verify on the national portal. DISCOM steps differ slightly between APSPDCL and TGSPDCL.
Usually not eligible on this scheme: commercial or industrial meters, pure off-grid systems, and tenants without the owner’s involvement.
Sealix does not collect Aadhaar on our website. Your installer / portal filing handles KYC.
Timelines vary. Feasibility and metering often take weeks, not days.
Myths
The scheme subsidises cost; it does not mean zero-rupee panels for every household. SC/ST special packages in some districts are separate programmes — ask your DISCOM, do not assume.
Subsidy is DBT to the consumer after portal rules are met. Prefer empanelled vendors and track status on the official site.
No. We only help you understand fit and money. Apply at pmsuryaghar.gov.in.
