According to us, this is a very positive step by the government. Now, homeowners can decide to go with quality solar companies without compromising on the quality and more importantly the service of their solar systems. This will also enable the solar industry to consolidate and develop a robust and elaborate sales and service infrastructure for rooftop solar.
MYSUN is running a special drive to help homeowners interested in subsidy and to curate their journey for a seamless and transparent experience.
