Get Started FreeFrequently asked questions
How much subsidy can I get under PM Surya Ghar: Muft Bijli Yojana?
Up to ₹78,000 for a rooftop system of 3kW or larger — ₹30,000 for the 1st kW, another ₹30,000 for the 2nd kW, and ₹18,000 for the 3rd kW. The scheme does not pay additional subsidy beyond 3kW.
How is the subsidy paid out?
As a Direct Benefit Transfer straight to your bank account, typically within about 30 days of your DISCOM confirming commissioning of the system — not adjusted against your installer's invoice.
What size system do I actually need?
This calculator gives a rough estimate from your average monthly electricity consumption — about 120 units of generation per installed kW per month, an India-wide average that varies by state and roof orientation. A real site survey from a solar installer is what actually determines your final system size.
Is this an official government calculator?
No — this is an independent estimate built by Solset AI using the publicly published subsidy slabs. Always confirm your exact eligibility and subsidy amount on the official PM Surya Ghar portal or with your installer before signing a contract.
