Imagine cutting your monthly electricity bill to near zero — with the government footing a large part of the cost. That's exactly what the PM Surya Ghar: Muft Bijli Yojana makes possible. Launched in 2024, this flagship central government scheme has already transformed rooftop solar adoption across India, and Indore is leading the way in Madhya Pradesh.
Over 54,500 rooftop solar installations have been completed in the Malwa-Nimar region, with more than ₹291 crores in subsidies already disbursed. If you're a homeowner in Indore and haven't applied yet, here's everything you need to know.

Up to ₹78,000 direct subsidy on rooftop solar installation
Free electricity up to 300 units per month
Option to sell surplus power back to the grid via net metering
Access to low-interest financing for remaining costs
The subsidy is credited directly to your bank account within 30 days of system activation — no middlemen involved.

Why Indore Is Perfect for Solar
With 300+ sunny days a year, Indore is one of central India's best cities for rooftop solar generation. A standard 3 kW system here can generate 12–15 units of electricity daily — enough to make an average 3-BHK household fully self-reliant. Add to that:
Active net metering support from West DISCOM across Indore, Ujjain, Dewas, and Ratlam
48+ active solar installers in the city
Strong government push toward a 20 GW renewable energy target by 2030
The infrastructure and policy environment couldn't be more favorable.
