Quick answer: under PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana, a home in Haryana gets ₹30,000 for 1 kW, ₹60,000 for 2 kW and ₹78,000 for 3 kW or more as central subsidy, paid straight into your bank account after the net meter is installed and the DISCOM inspection is done. Eligible BPL families can get up to ₹1,10,000 on a 2 kW system.
PM Surya Ghar is the Government of India's scheme to put rooftop solar on 1 crore homes, so families can get up to 300 units of free bijli every month. Haryana mein bhi har ghar isse fayda utha sakta hai — bas process sahi tarah se hona chahiye. Here is the complete process, step by step.
How much subsidy will I get?
The central subsidy (CFA) depends only on the size of your system:
| System size | Central subsidy |
|---|---|
| 1 kW | ₹30,000 |
| 2 kW | ₹60,000 |
| 3 kW | ₹78,000 |
| More than 3 kW | ₹78,000 (maximum) |
So 3 kW is the "sweet spot" — it gets the full subsidy. A bigger system is fine if your bill needs it, but the subsidy stays at ₹78,000.
Extra help for BPL families in Haryana
Eligible BPL families can also get ₹50,000 State Financial Assistance (SFA). On a 2 kW system that makes ₹1,10,000 in total (₹60,000 central + ₹50,000 state). The Family ID (Parivar Pehchan Patra) is needed for this file.
Who is eligible?
- You are an Indian citizen and own a house with a roof that gets good sunlight
- There is a valid domestic electricity connection in your name
- You have not taken any other solar subsidy for the same roof
- The system uses DCR (made-in-India) panels and is installed by an empanelled vendor
Documents to keep ready
- Aadhaar card
- Latest electricity bill
- Email ID and the mobile number linked to your bijli connection
- Bank passbook (first page) — the subsidy comes to this account
- Passport-size photo
- Family ID — only for the BPL subsidy file
- Property papers — only for a name change or load extension
Step-by-step: from application to subsidy
- Free site survey and quotation — the vendor checks your roof, load and shade, and gives a written price with subsidy.
- Register on the PM Surya Ghar portal — select Haryana, your DISCOM (DHBVN or UHBVN), enter your consumer number, mobile and email, then apply for rooftop solar.
- Feasibility approval — the DISCOM checks the application and gives technical feasibility. The vendor agreement is uploaded.
- Installation — structure, DCR panels, inverter, earthing and lightning arrestor. This takes about 1–2 days.
- Net meter and inspection — the net meter application is made, the DISCOM installs the net meter, inspects the plant and commissions it. This usually takes 2–4 weeks.
- Subsidy in your account — after commissioning, your bank details are submitted on the portal and the subsidy is released directly to you.
Common mistakes that delay the subsidy
- Name on the electricity bill and the bank account do not match
- Non-DCR panels or a vendor who is not empanelled
- Wrong mobile number or email on the portal (OTPs never arrive)
- Sanctioned load too low for the system size — a load extension is needed first
How much will it cost after subsidy?
For a typical 3 kW system: about ₹1,80,000 (indicative, GST included) − ₹78,000 subsidy = about ₹1,02,000. It makes about 405 units a month — at ₹7/unit that is about ₹2,835 saved every month. Want EMI instead of a big payment? Check the EMI calculator.
