Delhi hikes solar panel subsidy, free panels for homes using up to 400 units: CM Rekha Gupta

The Delhi government has increased the subsidy for residential rooftop solar installations under the revised Delhi Solar Policy. Households with a monthly electricity consumption of 400 units or less will now be eligible for fully funded 3-kilowatt rooftop solar systems. The state subsidy for a 3-kW system has been raised to ₹78,000, complemented by the central government's PM Surya Ghar initiative, which covers the remaining setup costs. The policy aims to install solar systems in 230,000 households by March 2027. Additional financial support is provided for lower-consumption households, while those exceeding 400 units will not qualify for this extra incentive.
