Recommended SystemFrequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about rooftop solar, government subsidies, and net-metering.
What is PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana?
It is the flagship central government initiative launched by the Ministry of New & Renewable Energy (MNRE) aiming to provide up to 300 units of free electricity every month to 1 crore Indian households through subsidized rooftop solar installations.
What are DCR Solar Modules and why are they mandatory?
DCR stands for Domestic Content Requirement. To qualify for central government subsidies under PM Surya Ghar and PM-KUSUM, the solar cells and modules must be manufactured in India. Raghuram Solar supplies 100% genuine ALMM-enlisted DCR modules compliant with all MNRE requirements.
How does Bi-Directional Net-Metering work?
A bi-directional net-meter records both the energy you import from the grid at night or cloudy periods, and the surplus solar energy your plant exports to the grid during sunny hours. You are only billed for the net units consumed, dramatically reducing or eliminating your monthly electricity bill.
What is the maintenance required for a solar plant?
Solar PV systems have zero moving parts and require minimal upkeep. Routine cleaning of the module glass with plain water once every 10–15 days to remove dust and dirt is usually all that is needed to maintain peak generation efficiency.
