01Who should verify
Residential consumers should check the current PM Surya Ghar portal for eligibility, CFA structure, capacity limits, registered vendors and required documents. Commercial or institutional systems may not receive the same residential support. Consumer category and meter ownership must match the application.
02Application sequence
Register with state, DISCOM and consumer details; submit the rooftop application; wait for feasibility approval; select a registered vendor; install the compliant system; submit plant details; complete inspection and net meter; receive commissioning evidence; then submit bank and redemption details as the portal directs.
04Fraud prevention
Use official portal links, verify vendor registration, pay only against written milestones, retain invoices and never share OTP, UPI PIN or banking credentials. A vendor cannot guarantee subsidy release because portal, inspection and eligibility decisions involve government and DISCOM authorities.
