Where the lid sits
We mark it before any row is drawn.
A lid in the setback
Where a pump-room lid sits in the setback, well below the terrace, that lid is not counted. Rails do not step down to it. The visit from Madipakkam is free.

The lid in the setback
The lid is well below the terrace. Rails do not step down to it. A house with no pump room in the setback is an ordinary survey.
A well-room roof that meets the rear parapet is the Virugambakkam case. A parking roof a full storey below is the Manapakkam case. A shared bay in the quarters is the Madhavaram case. Overhead wires along the tracks are the Tambaram case. A lower roof because the ground falls is the Red Hills case. A flat that cannot take a common roof is the Sholinganallur case. City-wide module choice is on panels for a Chennai home.

Both stay. The row uses the terrace.
Central assistance needs cells and modules made in India. Eligible homes can receive up to ₹78,000. The amount follows the scheme on the day you apply.
Who it suits
Houses where that lid is well below the terrace are the usual fit, when the terrace is in that household's name. A flat in a large block cannot claim the common roof. A house with no pump room is an ordinary survey unless another limit on these pages applies.
How the row is fixed once the lid is marked is on solar panel installation. Modules you already hold are labour from ₹3,000 per kW, materials excluded, on installation services. The Avadi figure is on solar panels and prices in Avadi. How the crew sets the row is on solar panels and installation in Avadi. The subsidy gap is on panel and price. NDCR against DCR is in that guide before an import is confirmed.
Show the pump room, if one stands in the setback
Yes. The roof visit is free. A recent bill and a photo of the pump room, if one stands in the setback, are enough to start. No modules are ordered that day.
No. That lid is far below the terrace. It is not counted.
No. A house with no pump room in the setback is a normal survey. The tank stays, and a walkway stays.
Yes. Cells and modules must be made in India. Eligible homes can receive up to ₹78,000, subject to the scheme on the day you apply. NDCR is only if that assistance has already been given up.
A free visit from Madipakkam. We keep the row on the terrace, and note whether the plant should be DCR.
