The PM Surya Ghar scheme may get a three to four month extension while officials finalise a successor plan that is being designed to sustain progress on household solar adoption. Government sources said the interim period would allow implementing agencies to bridge operational gaps and maintain installation schedules without interruption. The proposal is under consideration by central authorities and state partners as they weigh technical and delivery issues. The original programme aimed to expand rooftop solar access for eligible households and accelerate the shift towards distributed clean energy across urban and rural areas. Stakeholders are reviewing supply chain readiness, installer capacity and grid integration requirements to ensure that existing beneficiaries continue to receive support. The successor plan seeks to incorporate lessons from the current rollout to improve targeting and long term sustainability. Key considerations include ensuring adequate inventory of solar panels and components, streamlining installer accreditation and clarifying financing arrangements for last mile deployment. Coordination with distribution companies will be important to manage interconnection and metering processes and to prevent delays in commissioning. Officials are also assessing data from earlier phases to identify regions that require additional outreach or technical assistance. Manufacturers and service providers have been engaged in consultations to align production and deployment timelines. If an extension is approved it would preserve continuity for households awaiting installation while the successor framework is finalised. Authorities plan to use the interim period to finalise implementation guidelines and oversight mechanisms so that the new plan can be rolled out with minimal disruption. Further announcements will follow once formal decisions have been taken and communicated by the relevant ministries. Ministries have directed implementing teams to accelerate technical reviews and submit recommendations promptly so that the successor framework can be launched without prolonged gaps in household access to rooftop solar support.
