Planning rooftop solar in Thiruvananthapuram? Aadithya Innovations helps eligible residential customers understand the PM Surya Ghar scheme, plan a suitable rooftop solar system and navigate installation and KSEB-related requirements.
PM Surya Ghar: Muft Bijli Yojana is the Government of India rooftop-solar scheme for eligible residential electricity consumers. The scheme is implemented through the national portal, with Central Financial Assistance (CFA) subject to the scheme's eligibility, technical requirements and current government guidelines.
For homeowners in Trivandrum, the practical process involves checking eligibility, planning a suitable rooftop solar system, selecting an eligible vendor, completing installation and required verification, and then following the applicable DISCOM and net-metering process.
The CFA is intended for eligible residential rooftop solar installations connected to the consumer's electricity connection and local DISCOM process.
The installation must meet the scheme's applicable technical and documentation requirements to qualify for CFA.
The published scheme structure provides CFA for the first 2 kW and an additional 1 kW, with no additional CFA beyond 3 kW under that structure.
After installation, the project follows the required inspection, documentation and approval steps before the applicable CFA is released.
Review your residential electricity connection, rooftop suitability and the current scheme requirements.
Start the application through the official PM Surya Ghar platform and follow the instructions for your electricity connection.
Choose a vendor through the applicable portal process and finalise the system design, components and installation scope.
Complete the approved installation and submit the required information for the next stage of the process.
The concerned distribution utility completes the applicable inspection, agreement and grid-connection steps.
After the required verification and approvals, the applicable Central Financial Assistance is processed according to current scheme rules.
The published PM Surya Ghar scheme order describes Central Financial Assistance for the residential sector as 60% of benchmark cost for the first 2 kW and 40% of benchmark cost for an additional 1 kW, with no additional CFA beyond 3 kW under that structure. The actual benefit remains subject to current scheme rules, benchmark costs, technical compliance and eligibility.

|---|---|---|
| First 2 kW | 60% of benchmark cost | Current benchmark cost and eligibility |
| Additional 1 kW | 40% of benchmark cost of the additional kW | Current scheme rules and technical compliance |
