Your complete journey from booking solar to receiving government subsidy — explained clearly.

Installing a rooftop solar system should be simple, transparent, and hassle-free. At SOLAR-MAIT, we follow a streamlined and fast process that ensures your system is installed safely, professionally, and in the shortest possible time — while we also handle all government approvals for you.

Here is a clear breakdown of how the entire journey works.

1. Initial Approval From Government (1–7 Days)

Once you confirm your solar order with SOLAR-MAIT, the first step is to apply for government approval through the official DISCOM/portal.

This includes:

  • Registration on the solar subsidy portal

  • Submitting rooftop details

  • Selecting SOLAR-MAIT as your registered vendor

  • Uploading necessary documents

Our team handles the entire filing process on your behalf.

Approval time: Usually 1–7 days, depending on your state and DISCOM speed.


2. Material Preparation by SOLAR-MAIT (1–2 Days)

As soon as approval is received, we begin preparing the entire solar kit for your home.

This includes:

  • Tier-1 solar panels

  • High-efficiency inverter

  • Mounting structures

  • DC/AC cables

  • Earthing kit

  • Connectors & safety equipment

Since SOLAR-MAIT maintains ready inventory and fast procurement channels, we ensure your material is prepared in 1–2 working days without delays.


3. Dispatch & Delivery to Your Home (1 Day)

Once material preparation is complete, our logistics team arranges quick dispatch.

  • Materials are packed securely

  • Shipped through dedicated delivery partners

  • Delivered safely to your site within 1 day

This ensures your installation process starts immediately without waiting for supplies.


4. Professional Installation on Your Rooftop (1–7 Days)

This is the heart of the entire process.
Our expert EPC team arrives at your location to begin a clean, safe, and structured installation.

The steps include:

Site leveling & structure fitting

Mounting structures are installed based on roof type (RCC/Sheet/Tin/Tile).

Solar panel fixing

Panels are fixed securely at the correct angle for maximum generation.

Inverter installation & wiring

We install the inverter inside your home and complete AC/DC wiring neatly.

Earthing & surge protection

Safety systems ensure long-term system stability.

Testing & quality check

Full inspection is done before system handover.

Installation time:
1–7 days depending on:

  • System size

  • Roof design

  • Wiring distance

  • Weather conditions

Our goal is to always complete work neatly, safely, and efficiently.


Parallel Stage: Government Approval for Stage 2 & Stage 3 (During Installation Period)

While installation is going on, SOLAR-MAIT simultaneously processes your government approvals for:

✔️ Stage 2 – Technical Feasibility

✔️ Stage 3 – Plant Commissioning Request

You don’t need to follow up or visit any office — we handle everything.

This parallel submission saves you weeks of waiting time and speeds up subsidy release.


5. Final Inspection & Plant Approval (7–21 Days After Installation)

Once the installation is completed and testing is done, the government DISCOM team visits your home.

They will:

  • Inspect the solar plant

  • Check inverter, wiring, and safety

  • Verify net-meter readiness

  • Approve the system for commissioning

SOLAR-MAIT coordinates the entire visit so the process remains smooth and stress-free.


6. Net Meter Installation (Same Day or 1–7 Days)

After approval, the government installs your bi-directional net meter.

This allows:

  • Exporting solar units to the grid

  • Generating unit-to-unit credit

  • Reducing your electricity bill up to 90%


7. Subsidy Release by Government (45–90 Days)

Finally, once the plant is commissioned and verified, the government processes your subsidy amount.

Subsidy disbursement time:
45 to 90 days depending on your state and portal load.

You will receive the subsidy directly into your bank account, as per MNRE guidelines.
