Financial Express Kolkata|December 30, 2024
Even as the government is focusing ramping up installations under the newly launched PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana, delays in subsidy disbursal have raised concerns.
- Arunima Bharadwaj

Of the two million applications received by October 2024, only 480,000 installations have been completed, according to a report by the Lok Sabha's Standing Committee.

As per the data, subsidy has been disbursed to only 280,000 households, which is 58.3% of the total installations.

"In between, there was a rainy season, when the momentum became a little less. But the average capacity is still around 3,000-3,500, which we can do on a daily basis," ministry of new and renewable energy informed the Committee. Despite the delays, the government aims to reach 1.2 million installations by the end of this fiscal year.
