PM Surya Ghar Yojana Uttar Pradesh: 2026 Subsidy Calculator

The Central Government provides a base subsidy up to ₹78,000, while the UP State Government (UPNEDA) adds an additional top-up of up to ₹30,000.

1. 2026 UP Subsidy Calculator Breakdown
Uttar Pradesh is unique because it offers a “State Top-Up” on top of the Central PM Surya Ghar subsidy. Here is the exact calculation matrix for 2026:
| System Capacity | Central Subsidy (MNRE) | UP State Subsidy (UPNEDA) | Total Subsidy You Receive |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 kW | ₹30,000 | ₹15,000 | ₹45,000 |
| 2 kW | ₹60,000 | ₹30,000 | ₹90,000 |
| 3 kW | ₹78,000 | ₹30,000 | ₹1,08,000 |
| 4kW to 10kW+ | ₹78,000 (Capped) | ₹30,000 (Capped) | ₹1,08,000 (Max Limit) |
Note: The total subsidy cannot exceed the actual benchmark cost of the system. Systems larger than 3kW receive the maximum capped amount.
2. Who is Eligible for the PM Surya Ghar Subsidy?
To qualify for this lucrative financial aid, you must meet the following criteria:
- Residential Only: The electricity bill must be under a residential tariff category (e.g., LMV-1 in UP). Commercial, industrial, and institutional buildings are NOT eligible for this scheme.
- Valid Connection: You must have an active, regular electricity connection with your local DISCOM (MVVNL, PVVNL, DVVNL, PuVVNL, or KESCO).
- Roof Ownership: You must own the house or have explicit permission to use the rooftop.
- No Prior Subsidy: You cannot claim this subsidy if you have already availed of a previous MNRE rooftop solar subsidy.
3. Step-by-Step: How to Apply on the National Portal
The application process is entirely digital and transparent. Here is how you do it:
- Register: Go to the official PM Surya Ghar National Portal. Register using your state (Uttar Pradesh), your DISCOM, your consumer number, and your mobile number.
- Login & Apply: Fill out the application form specifying your required kW capacity.
- Feasibility Approval: Wait for your local DISCOM to grant technical feasibility approval (usually takes a few days).
- Select Vendor: Once approved, select a UPNEDA-empanelled vendor (like Rudransh Solartech) from the portal to install your system.
- Installation & Net Metering: The vendor installs the plant. After installation, submit the plant details to apply for the Net Metering process.
- Commissioning & Subsidy Release: After the DISCOM inspects the plant and installs the net meter, a commissioning certificate is generated. Submit your bank details on the portal, and the total subsidy (Central + State) will be credited to your account within 30 days.
4. Important Rules: DCR Panels and Empanelled Vendors
Many homeowners make critical mistakes that cause their subsidy to be rejected. Pay close attention to these rules:
Must Use DCR Panels
To get the subsidy, your solar panels MUST be Domestic Content Requirement (DCR) compliant. This means both the solar cell and the solar module must be manufactured in India.
Empanelled Vendors Only
You cannot buy panels online or hire an un-registered local electrician. You MUST use an official vendor empanelled by the MNRE/UPNEDA.
