Subsidy questions
Is the ₹17,000 Rajasthan subsidy in addition to ₹78,000?
Yes. The state amount is paid on top of the central PM Surya Ghar subsidy to eligible JVVNL home consumers who install at least 1.1 kW on a pukka roof under the 150-unit free electricity scheme.
Will I get more subsidy for a 5 kW or 10 kW system?
No. The central subsidy stops at ₹78,000 for 3 kW and above. A bigger system still saves more on your bill if you use the units.
Who receives the money?
The subsidy is paid directly into the bank account of the person whose name is on the JVVNL connection. That’s why the names on your bill, Aadhaar and bank account must match.
Why do subsidy applications get rejected?
The most common reasons: the name doesn’t match across bill, Aadhaar and bank account; the bill isn’t paid; the vendor isn’t registered on the portal; or the panels aren’t DCR/ALMM-listed. We check all of these before applying.
Do flats get the subsidy?
Usually through the society (RWA) for common areas: ₹18,000 per kW. Individual flat owners usually don’t have their own roof rights.
Is there a subsidy for shops and factories?
No capital subsidy, but businesses get 40% accelerated depreciation and much higher savings per unit, so the payback is often faster than for homes.
Rules can change. Always confirm on the official PM Surya Ghar portal and with JVVNL. Last reviewed: Nov 2026.
