Where it ends
We mark the edge of your own sunshade before any row is drawn.
Your own sunshade
Solar panels for your home in Tiruvottiyur.
On these old streets the front of the house often has its own concrete sunshade over the pavement. That sunshade is not the terrace. Rails stay on the slab behind it. It is not drilled, and it is not counted. The visit from Madipakkam is free.
What is not the terrace
The slab behind the sunshade.
A projection over the street is still not terrace. A house with no sunshade of its own is an ordinary survey.
A neighbour's sunshade that already crosses your parapet is the Teynampet case. A shop canopy over the pavement is the Anna Salai case. A sheet over a shop front is the Saidapet case. A roof that is still brick on joists is the Nungambakkam case. Tiles on a front verandah are the Kilpauk case. A flat that cannot take a common roof is the Sholinganallur case. City-wide module choice is on panels for a Chennai home.

DCR
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
A house with its own street sunshade.
Old street houses with a concrete sunshade over the pavement are the usual fit, when the slab behind it is in that household's name. A flat in a large block cannot claim the common roof. A house with no sunshade of its own is an ordinary survey unless another limit on these pages applies.
How the row is fixed once the sunshade is marked is on solar panel installation. Modules you already hold are labour from ₹3,000 per kW, materials excluded, on installation services. The Tiruvottiyur figure is on solar panels and prices in Tiruvottiyur. How the crew sets the row is on solar panels and installation in Tiruvottiyur. The subsidy gap is on panel and price. NDCR against DCR is in that guide before an import is confirmed.
Show the sunshade, if the house has one
The projection, then the row.
Do you visit Tiruvottiyur from Madipakkam?
Yes. The roof visit is free. A recent bill and a photo of the street sunshade, if the house has one, are enough to start. No modules are ordered that day.
Can the sunshade be counted as terrace?
No. It is your own projection over the street. It is not drilled and not counted. Rails stay on the slab behind it.
There is no street sunshade. Does the same limit apply?
No. A house with no sunshade of its own is a normal survey. The tank stays, and a walkway stays.
Do subsidy plants need DCR modules?
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.
Send a photo of the street sunshade, if the house has one.
A free visit from Madipakkam. We keep the row on the slab behind it, and note whether the plant should be DCR.
