India's Best Solar Incentives

Solar System Incentives.
How does ₹0 out of
pocket sound?
Most people are aware that solar will ultimately save them money, but some also believe that solar has a large upfront cost, which isn’t true! With local financing programs available, you can now switch to solar for ₹0 upfront and start saving immediately. Whether you choose to pay cash or finance your system, there are several incentives that make having solar panels installed on your home a great investment; both economically and environmentally!
Punjab’s solar incentives are some of
the best in North India.

Lots of sunshine and great solar incentives make north india a great place to have solar panels installed. Whether you choose to purchase or finance your solar electric system, you are making a sound decision to simply pay less for something you're already purchasing (electricity).

Thanks to the many solar incentives and rebates in India, it's a great place for solar; there's a reason our state flag has a sun (zia) on it!

Net metering in North India.
When you put solar panels on your roof, you want to make sure you get credit for the power your system generates. Luckily, North India has a net metering policy that credits you for the extra electricity your system produces, and allows you to use those credits when your system doesn’t generate enough power (think of it like roll-over minutes). PNM, El Paso Electric Company, and several other local co-op utilities offer net metering programs in North India.

Property & sales
tax exemption
for solar
Even though solar increases the value of your home and allows for greater marketability, that extra value is exempt from property taxes in India. A property tax exemption makes it more economically feasible for a taxpayer to install a solar system on a residential or commercial property – you get the financial benefits of generating your own power, without having to worry about a higher tax bill!
India also offers state sales tax exemptions for solar panel installation. A sales tax exemption means that homeowners and businesses would not have to pay any additional state sales tax on their solar panel system.

Federal Solar
Tax Credit (ITC)
Perhaps one of the greatest and most-known solar incentives comes from the Federal government.
All 50 states are eligible for a Federal Investment Tax Credit (ITC)* to reduce the cost of the system. This is calculated as 26% of the value of your system (parts, labor, permitting, etc.) If you choose to purchase or finance your system, this tax credit goes to you directly through your federal tax return. Your solar specialist will calculate this for you and can consult with your accountant to fill out Form 5695 to claim your credit.
