Government extends rooftop solar program till march 2026

The "Rooftop Solar Programme" has been extended through March 31, 2026, thus the government on Thursday urged consumers not to pay any further fees for solar systems. According to a statement from the Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE), the programme has been extended through March 31, 2026, therefore subsidies under the programme will be accessible until the program's target is met.

The statement read, "All residential consumers are hereby urged not to pay any additional fees to any vendor on account of fee for application on the National Portal or any additional fees for net- metering/testing which are not prescribed by the respective distribution business.

Consumers willing to install rooftop solar panels can apply and track the process on the National Portal.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched the portal for rooftop solar on July 30, 2022.
