PM Solar (Solar Awareness Foundation) is an independent NGO — we do not install systems, so our vendor-selection checklist has no sales bias.
The 7-point Jaipur vendor checklist:
- MNRE / PM Surya Ghar empanelment — verify on the national portal; non-empanelled vendors make your ₹78,000 subsidy claim invalid
- Tier-1 panel brands (Waaree, Adani, Vikram) with a written 25-year performance warranty
- JVVNL net-metering experience — ask for 3 recent Jaipur commissioning references
- Transparent quote — separate line items for panels, inverter, structure, wiring, meter and liaison charges
- No "subsidy discount upfront" trick — the subsidy is DBT-credited to YOUR bank account, never the vendor's
- After-sales service centre in Jaipur — not just a phone number
- CEI electrical-safety compliance for systems above 10 kW
Red flags: pressure to sign same-day, cash-only pricing, "we will claim the subsidy for you into our account", non-ALMM panels at a discount.
