Consumers we supply Equipment across the portfolio Marks are the property of their respective owners and are shown to identify the consumers we supply and the equipment deployed across the portfolio. 02 Why now Industrial power in India subsidises everyone else. C&I consumers pay a cross-subsidy priced into every unit \u2014 and the exit has never been cheaper. Open-access solar additions grew 160% year-on-year in Q1 2026. This is no longer early-adopter behaviour; it is India's industrial base repricing grid risk, plant by plant. 35\u201340% \u2192 55\u201360% C&I consumes 35\u201340% of India's power but contributes 55\u201360% of DISCOM revenues. The cross-subsidy is priced into every unit you buy. US$74 bn Accumulated losses across India's distribution companies. That hole is filled from the industrial tariff \u2014 which is why your rate rarely goes down. 2.7 GW Open-access solar added in Q1 2026 alone, up 160% year on year. Against 32.9 GW already in operation, and a record 44+ GW added nationally in FY26. And the exit is getting cheaper The regulatory direction is running in your favour. In Uttar Pradesh alone this year: \u2192 Rs 1 per kWh \u2014 wheeling charges reduced \u221215% transmission charges cut up to \u221255% cross-subsidy surcharge, for large consumers Sources: Mercom India Research, May 2026; UPERC FY2026 tariff order via Mercom India; Vibgyor market assessment.

What ALMM actually requires One payroll The handover that never happens. In most solar projects the company that designs it, the company that builds it and the company that maintains it are three different companies. Every one of those seams is somewhere a problem can be someone else's. Fifty-plus people, one accountable organisation Engineering, procurement, execution, operations and finance sit under one roof. The engineer who sized your array is reachable by the technician who maintains it, because they work for the same company and always will. In-house design and yield modelling \u2014 not outsourced to a consultant Our own installation, testing and commissioning crews Operations teams who inherit plants we built, and answer for them Land, connectivity and regulatory work done by staff, not agents Project finance arranged alongside the build, not after it And we stay on the asset afterwards Where we own the plant, our incentive and yours are identical for twenty-five years \u2014 every unit it fails to generate is a unit we do not get paid for. Where you own it, the same operations team runs it under a contract with performance guarantees rather than best endeavours. Performance ratio and availability written in, backed by liquidated damages Monthly generation and savings reporting, benchmarked against design Warranty, insurance and settlement administration handled for you Third-party plants taken over and turned around How we build Safety built into the roof \u2014 not bolted on later. Access, fall protection and a cleaning water supply are designed in at drawing stage, not improvised on site. Soiling losses and roof damage are the two biggest silent drains on a rooftop asset \u2014 and your HSE team should not be carrying our risk. Walkways & edge protection Perforated GI walkways run between the array rows, with guardrails at every roof edge. Technicians never step on sheeting or on modules. Fall-arrest lifelines Tensioned horizontal lifelines are anchored to the structure, so a harness clips on from the moment anyone reaches the roof.

The two things that actually gate a solar project. Land Aggregated, cleaned and registered We identify and negotiate parcel by parcel with individual landowners, bring every legal heir on record, obtain restricted-category permissions, and drive agricultural-to-industrial conversion. Thirty-year encumbrance certificates and independent title verification come before any significant payment is released. Grid Connectivity, not a queue ticket Substation selection, pre-feasibility, the full connectivity application chain through the state nodal agency and transmission utility, right-of-way survey with alternates, and the final connectivity agreement. We site the plant within a few kilometres of the substation we have applied to \u2014 the shortest line is the one that gets built. Structure Group captive, built to survive audit Group captive only works if it keeps working: captive users holding at least 26% of the generating entity and consuming at least 51% of annual generation, every year, for the life of the contract. We structure the SPV, the shareholding and the consumption profile so the test holds in year twelve, not just at signing. Capital Whichever side you don't want You fund it and own it. We fund it and sell you power. Or we own it together and you take the captive benefit. Project finance, subordinated promoter capital and debt service reserves are arranged around the structure \u2014 the engineering does not change, only the balance sheet it sits on. Where we develop the site ourselves \u2014 as at our solar parks \u2014 the land, the evacuation infrastructure, the pooling substation and the transmission line are ours to build and ours to answer for. That is infrastructure development, and it is the part of this business that cannot be bought in. What a solar park actually involves Most of it is not the solar. A park is an infrastructure project that happens to generate electricity. The modules are the last and least difficult thing to arrive. Before a single module ships Land assembled parcel by parcel and registered clean. Connectivity applied for and granted. Right of way secured across whoever sits between you and the substation. Only then does anything look like a solar project. Thirty-year title search and independent legal verification Agricultural-to-industrial conversion and panchayat clearances Connectivity through the state nodal agency and transmission utility Route survey with alternates, because one landowner can stop a line And the evacuation is ours to build Generating the power is pointless if it cannot leave. At our parks the internal network, the pooling substation and the transmission line to the grid are all built by us and answered for by us \u2014 fourteen kilometres of it at Chitrakoot alone. Internal collection network and pooling substation Transmission line to the interconnection point Metering, protection and synchronisation with the utility Connection agreement held with the state transmission company Group captive, drawn Two numbers decide whether you keep the saving. Group captive is what lets a consumer avoid cross-subsidy surcharge and additional surcharge on open-access power. It rests on a test in the Electricity Rules, 2005 \u2014 and the test is applied every year, not once at signing. Generating company Project SPV \u00b7 the plant sits here Solar park or captive plant EQUITY 26% balance held by Vibgyor Captive users must hold at least 26% ANNUAL GENERATION 51% may be sold on Captive users must consume at least 51% Captive users Your company, or a group of consumers together Equity in, power out \u2014 both tested every year If both hold No cross-subsidy surcharge No additional surcharge The saving that makes off-site solar work Fail the test Surcharges come back, retrospectively in some states. The saving that justified the project can be clawed back years later. Why it drifts Consumption changes. A line shuts, a shift pattern moves, a group entity is restructured \u2014 and the 51% quietly stops holding. What we do about it We size generation against your real consumption profile and structure the shareholding so both tests survive year twelve, not just year one. Thresholds are set by the Electricity Act 2003 and Electricity Rules 2005; state commissions apply them through their own open-access regulations. Eligibility is confirmed against the applicable SERC order before we quote. Eligibility check Would you actually clear the group captive test? Two thresholds, both applied every year for the life of the contract. Most projects fail on the second one, and they fail quietly \u2014 years later, when consumption has drifted. Your annual consumption 18.0 GWh Plant capacity 10.0 MWp Equity you would hold 26% \u2014 Equity: at least 26% Captive users must together hold not less than 26% of the ownership of the generating company. \u2014 \u2014 Consumption: at least 51% Captive users must consume not less than 51% of the electricity generated, determined on an annual basis. \u2014 Why the second one bites A plant sized to your consumption today fails the moment a line shuts, a shift pattern changes, or the group restructures. The test does not care why. What failing costs Cross-subsidy surcharge and additional surcharge come back \u2014 and in some states retrospectively, which can claw back the saving that justified the project. How we size around it Against your real consumption profile with headroom, not against your roof or the capacity somebody wants to sell you. Thresholds are set by the Electricity Act 2003 and the Electricity Rules 2005; state commissions apply them through their own open access regulations, and the detail of how generation and consumption are measured varies. Generation is estimated here at 1,350 kWh per kWp per year on a P90 basis. This is a directional check, not an eligibility opinion \u2014 we confirm the position against the applicable SERC order before quoting. These figures are illustrative. Actual sizing, savings and payback depend on a detailed site and tariff analysis by Vibgyor\u2019s engineering and commercial teams. Assets we develop and own Solar parks, storage, and plants on our own balance sheet.

For loads too large for your roof, we build the plant elsewhere and wheel the power to you over the state network. 1 Generate Our solar park generates and injects into the network at 33 kV or 66 kV, depending on the substation the connection is granted at. 2 Wheel The grid wheels power to your facility. Transmission and wheeling charges apply per state regulation, and we handle the DISCOM interface. 3 Save Net units offset your DISCOM bill; surplus is banked and drawn back per state rules. Open access is a state-regulated route. Eligibility, the charge structure and banking rules vary by state and are confirmed against the applicable SERC order before we quote. Storage Banking is being withdrawn. A battery is what replaces it. Midday surplus held back and released into the evening peak \u2014 the service the grid used to provide for free. Our first co-located BESS, 7.5 MWh at 33 kV, is in commissioning at Chamu. How it fits together Where the battery sits in the system. A battery energy storage system \u2014 BESS, in the way lenders and EPC contracts write it \u2014 is four boxes and a set of rules about when each one runs. This is a behind-the-meter configuration \u2014 array, conversion, battery and distribution, all on your side of the meter, serving your loads directly. your side of the meter grid PV array rooftop or ground mount DC Hybrid inverter \u00b7 PCS the decision point: load first, surplus to battery, deficit from it AC AC distribution your switchgear kWh import only when needed Production HVAC Lighting IT & utilities surplus deficit Battery bank charges on surplus, discharges into the evening DC from the array AC to your loads bidirectional battery path metered grid import DC in amber, AC in blue, and the bidirectional battery path in green. The hybrid inverter is the decision point: it serves the load from the array first, sends the surplus to the battery, and pulls it back out when generation falls short. Through the middle of the day The array serves the facility directly. Whatever the site cannot absorb charges the battery rather than being exported at a price you did not set. Into the evening Generation falls away while the load does not. The battery discharges through the same inverter, displacing the most expensive block of the day. What decides the size Not the roof. The shape of your load curve against the generation curve, and how much of the gap between them is worth storing rather than buying. Solar & storage, across one day Why a battery is not an accessory. Solar arrives at midday. Your plant runs into the evening. Banking used to bridge that gap for free \u2014 and states are withdrawing it. Move the sliders and watch what a battery actually buys you. Plant size 6.0 MWp DC capacity on your roof or wheeled in from our park. Battery 4.0 MWh Set to zero to see the day without storage. Facility load 2.5 MW Average draw across the working day. \u2014 Of the day's load met by your own solar \u2014 Of the evening peak covered by battery \u2014 Surplus with nowhere to go A day in megawatts Solar direct From battery Grid An illustrative clear-day profile on a flat load, sized to show the shape of the problem rather than to size your plant. Real dispatch is modelled against twelve months of your actual interval data, your state's banking and settlement rules, and the tariff structure you are billed on. These figures are illustrative. Actual sizing, savings and payback depend on a detailed site and tariff analysis by Vibgyor\u2019s engineering and commercial teams. Regulatory framework How your bill actually gets settled. Three settlement regimes apply across Indian states. Which one you fall under changes the value of every unit you generate \u2014 and it is the single biggest driver of how we size your array. Net metering NET BILL = IMPORT \u2212 EXPORT Units exported to the grid are set off one-for-one against units imported, and you are billed only on the net. Most valuable for weekend surplus Net billing NET BILL = (IMPORT \u00d7 GRID TARIFF) \u2212 (EXPORT \u00d7 SOLAR TARIFF) Imports are charged at your normal grid tariff; exports are credited at a separate, lower solar tariff set by the regulator. Surplus is worth less than self-consumed generation. Applies at VBL Supa, under MERC 2023 Gross metering NET BILL = (IMPORT \u00d7 GRID TARIFF) \u2212 (SOLAR UNITS \u00d7 SOLAR TARIFF) The entire solar output is sold to the DISCOM at a notified tariff and your whole consumption is billed normally. The two settle against each other. Self-consumption carries no premium This is why we size the array against twelve months of your actual consumption profile rather than your roof area \u2014 under net billing and gross metering, an exported unit is worth materially less than one you use yourself. Which regime applies is set by your state's regulation and your sanctioned load. Monitoring & reporting Every plant, visible in real time.

Warranty claims never filed Modules and inverters carry warranties with windows and evidence requirements. Nobody owns the paperwork, the window closes, and the replacement becomes your cost. Reporting against nothing A monthly generation number means very little on its own. It only means something measured against what the design said that month should produce, given the irradiation that actually landed. What it costs Put a number on the gap. Performance ratio is the fraction of the energy available to your plant that it actually delivers.

Generation is modelled at 1,350 kWh/kWp/year at the contractual reference, scaled by the ratio you set; CO\u2082 at the CEA grid emission factor of 0.71 t/MWh. Your actual figure depends on irradiation, plant age and design \u2014 which is what the assessment measures rather than assumes. This is an indication of scale, not a survey result. These figures are illustrative. Actual sizing, savings and payback depend on a detailed site and tariff analysis by Vibgyor\u2019s engineering and commercial teams. Taking a plant over Including plants somebody else built badly. We run 85+ MW under asset management, and a meaningful share of it we did not build. Taking over a third-party asset starts with finding out what you actually own. 01 Assessment String-level testing, thermal survey, inverter logs read properly, structure and earthing inspected, and the generation history rebuilt against the irradiation that actually landed \u2014 so the gap is measured, not estimated. 02 The honest report What is wrong, what it is costing per year, what is recoverable and what is not, and what is still claimable under warranty. Including the cases where the answer is that the plant is fine and you do not need us. 03 Rectification Faults cleared, cleaning put on a fixed regime with the water line sorted, monitoring made to actually report, and open warranty claims filed while the windows are still open. 04 Contracted operations Performance ratio and availability written into the contract and backed by liquidated damages \u2014 not an annual maintenance contract that promises visits, but a performance contract that promises output. An AMC is not a performance contract Most maintenance contracts commit to a number of site visits a year. If the plant underperforms between them, that is your loss \u2014 the contractor has still done what the contract asked. The visits were the deliverable. We contract to what the plant produces. If it misses the performance ratio, that is our money, which is the only arrangement under which you can be confident somebody is actually watching it.

A guarantee expressed as flat annual units is a guarantee about the weather. A performance ratio guarantee holds the contractor to the plant\u2019s efficiency against the sunlight that actually arrived \u2014 which is the only part they control. What happens if it underperforms? Ask for the remedy in writing. Liquidated damages with a stated formula and cap are a commitment; a promise to \u201cinvestigate and rectify\u201d is not. Is there a performance bank guarantee, and for how long? A PBG held through the defects liability period is what turns the warranty into something you can actually call on. Who carries insurance during construction, and to what value? Contractor\u2019s all-risk cover should exceed contract value, and marine, third-party and workmen\u2019s compensation should all be named. 2 \u00b7 What is on the roof in twenty-five years How is the structure fixed, and does it penetrate the sheeting? Every penetration is a future leak. Ask what happens to your roof warranty, and who pays if it is voided. Are walkways and fall protection included, or extra? Somebody has to clean this plant for twenty-five years. If access was not designed in, it will be improvised, and your HSE team will inherit it. Where does the cleaning water come from? A plumbed line designed at drawing stage costs little. Tankering water onto a roof for twenty-five years does not. What is the structural design wind speed, and who certified it? Ask for the calculation, not the assurance. 3 \u00b7 Who is actually doing the work Are the site crews employed, or subcontracted? A subcontract chain is where schedule and safety standards quietly diverge from what was promised in the meeting. Who did the yield model, and on what P-value? A P50 number is a coin flip. Proposals should state P90 and say so. Will the same organisation still be operating the plant in year ten? Ask how much capacity they currently maintain, and how much of it they did not build themselves. Who is your named point of contact after commissioning, and does that change? 4 \u00b7 The commercial structure Is this quoted as CAPEX, OPEX or open access, and why that one? A bidder who only offers one structure is selling what they do, not what suits your balance sheet. On OPEX, what is the escalation and the buyout schedule? A low opening tariff with steep escalation can cost more over the term than a higher flat one. Ask for the full 25-year table. On open access, which charges are included in the landed rate? Wheeling, transmission, cross-subsidy surcharge, additional surcharge and losses. A quote that omits them is not a landed rate. What metering regime applies in your state, and what happens to surplus? Net metering, net billing and gross metering pay very differently for the same unit. 5 \u00b7 The paperwork that stalls projects Who obtains the DISCOM approval and the inspectorate sign-off? Get it named in scope. This is the single most common cause of a commissioning date slipping. If you lease the premises, is the landlord\u2019s consent secured, and what happens at exit? Are the modules ALMM-listed, and does your project require it? Behind-the-meter captive projects generally do not \u2014 a bidder charging an ALMM premium on a captive rooftop should be asked why. What documentation comes at handover? As-built drawings, test reports, warranty certificates, O&M manuals. Regulated sites need all of it; ask before, not after. Nothing here is specific to Vibgyor.

Read it Case one \u00b7 CAPEX, client-owned Moon Beverages, Dasna. A Coca-Cola bottler in Uttar Pradesh with two large production roofs, a load that runs hardest through the hottest hours, and capital available for an asset it intended to keep. Two adjacent production halls, worked end to end. Skylights, extract fans and walkways are designed around rather than built over. 4.0 MWp Installed capacity 6,480 MWh Generated per year Rs 4.54 Cr Saved per year 3.3 years Payback on plant cost ~4,600 t CO\u2082 avoided a year The first order matters less than the four that followed it. Why CAPEX was right here The group had the capital, a long horizon on the site, and the appetite to own. At a 3.3-year payback on a plant with a twenty-five year life, ownership is simply the cheapest electricity available \u2014 roughly twenty-one further years of near-free generation once the asset has paid for itself. The engineering constraint A bottling roof is not an empty plane. Skylights, extract fans, service walkways and existing penetrations all have to be designed around, and the sheeting has to survive twenty-five years of maintenance traffic without a single new leak. Why it became a template Dasna is the flagship roof in a portfolio the group went on to build with us across five sites. That is the outcome worth reporting \u2014 not the first order, but the four that followed it. Case two \u00b7 OPEX, we own it Fortis Healthcare, Ludhiana. A hospital with a 24/7 load, limited usable roof, a large car park, and a finance committee that would rather put capital into clinical equipment than into a power plant. 317 kWp Carport installation Zero Capital from the hospital 513 MWh Generated per year Rs 31.9 L Power supplied per year, billed below grid Rs 6.22 Opening tariff per unit Why the car park, not the roof Hospital roofs are congested \u2014 plant rooms, chillers, helipads, expansion allowance. The car park was the largest uninterrupted area on the site, and a carport returns shaded parking for patients and visitors as well as generation. Why OPEX cleared internally On this structure the hospital committed no capital and took on no residual-value risk. We fund, build, own, insure and maintain the plant, and the hospital buys the units it consumes below its grid rate \u2014 which makes it an operating cost decision rather than a capital approval. What we carry Because we own it for the term, every unit the plant fails to generate is a unit we do not get paid for. That is the alignment the model creates, and it is the reason the performance commitments are contractual rather than aspirational. Every unit the plant fails to generate is a unit we are not paid for. Fortis has re-ordered across multiple campuses since 2016, every one on the same zero-capital structure. Which one is yours The structure follows the balance sheet, not the roof. Own it if You have the capital, a long horizon on the site, and you want the cheapest electricity available over twenty-five years. The payback is the whole argument. Buy the power if Capital is better deployed elsewhere, or a capital approval would take longer than the saving is worth waiting for. You pay per unit, below grid, from month one. Go off site if Your roof cannot carry enough of your load to matter. Open access or group captive supplies multi-megawatt volumes with no on-site footprint at all. Savings figures are per project records at prevailing tariffs; payback is stated for client-owned projects only. CO\u2082 at the CEA grid emission factor of 0.71 t/MWh.

The plant moves off site. Send us twelve months of bills.","b":"id=\"main\"> Sectors we serve Your load shape decides the project, not your industry. Four sectors where the daily load curve and the generation curve line up unusually well \u2014 and what changes in each one. Solar works differently in every industry. 01 Food, beverage and cold chain Refrigeration and compressors draw hardest when it is hottest \u2014 which is when a solar plant produces most. The two curves move together, and they move together seasonally too: your peak production months are your peak generation months. The load matches the resource. Chillers, cold rooms and compressor houses run through the middle of the day. Solar offsets the units you buy most of, not the cheap night-time ones. Tin-shed roofs are ideal. Large, clear, structurally simple spans \u2014 most bottling and processing plants carry megawatt-scale potential overhead without needing any land at all. Brand owners now audit it. Global principals increasingly grade franchisee and co-packer carbon, so renewable share has moved from a nice-to-have to a scorecard line. Where we have built: bottling, dairy and processing plants across India, Nepal and Africa \u2014 the deepest part of our portfolio and the sector we have been in longest. 02 Hospitals and healthcare A hospital never switches off. HVAC, imaging and sterilisation give you a large, flat, predictable daytime base load \u2014 the easiest kind of load to size a plant against, because it does not move. Zero-capex fits the balance sheet. On the OPEX model the hospital invests nothing and buys power below the grid rate from day one. Capital stays in clinical equipment, where the board would rather it went. Carports earn twice. Visitor and staff parking becomes generating area and shaded parking at the same time \u2014 useful where the roof alone cannot carry the load. It is patient-facing. Unlike most infrastructure decisions, this one is visible from the car park and reportable to the board. Where we have built: multiple campuses for a listed hospital group, repeat-ordered since 2016, every one on the zero-capex model. 03 Auto components and engineering Machining, casting and paint shops draw heavy, steady power right through the shift. On one- and two-shift operations the generation window and the production window are close to the same hours. Power is a controllable conversion cost. In machining and casting it is one of the few large ones you can actually attack \u2014 and solar attacks it for twenty-five years, at a price fixed on day one. Your OEM is already asking. Scope 3 targets are cascading from global OEMs down to Tier 1 and Tier 2, and renewable share is starting to appear in RFQ scoring rather than just in sustainability reports. More area than you think. Industrial sheds plus employee parking usually give an auto plant meaningfully more generating real estate than a roof survey alone suggests. Where we have built: the NCR auto belt \u2014 Manesar, Gurgaon, Bhiwadi and Barwala \u2014 including repeat orders from the same groups. 04 Pharma and chemicals Clean-room HVAC and process utilities never stop, so the daytime base load is large and constant. The complication is rarely the load \u2014 it is that the roof is small relative to it, and that everything has to be documented. When the roof is too small, go off site. Open access and group captive supply multi-megawatt volumes with no on-site footprint at all \u2014 which is usually the only way to move the needle on a process plant's bill. Auditors are the real driver. EU and US buyers, and CSRD-style disclosure, are turning verified renewable supply into a commercial requirement rather than a reputational one. Compliance-grade execution. ISO 9001, 14001 and 45001 systems, HSE-first execution and complete documentation \u2014 because a plant that cannot be evidenced is no use to a regulated site. Where we have built: process and manufacturing plants across 22 states, plus utility-scale generation for off-site supply. 05 Textiles Spinning and weaving run close to continuous, and almost all of it is motor load \u2014 a high, flat demand where every daylight unit the roof makes is consumed instantly, with nothing exported and nothing banked. Self-consumption does the work. A flat load means the plant can be sized aggressively against daytime demand without settlement risk \u2014 the regime your state applies matters less when nothing leaves the site. Margins feel every paisa. Power is one of the largest conversion costs in the mill. A fixed solar tariff is a hedge on the input that moves most. The night shift needs a different answer. Open access or group captive supplies the hours the roof cannot \u2014 one contract, two sources. What we check first: your shift pattern against the generation curve, and whether the sheds can carry modules or the plant belongs off site. 06 Chemicals and process industries Continuous process loads run day and night and cannot tolerate interruption \u2014 which makes the question less about the roof and more about how much of a large, steady draw can be moved to a cheaper source without touching reliability. Solar rides on top, the grid stays underneath. A behind-the-meter plant displaces daytime units without ever being in the supply-security path \u2014 the process never depends on it. Multi-megawatt loads suit the park. At continuous-process scale, group captive from an off-site park usually moves more of the bill than any roof can. Compliance is watching. Chemicals sits squarely in the disclosure net \u2014 metered solar generation is auditable Scope 2 reduction, not an estimate. What we check first: your sanctioned load and state surcharge position, because at this scale the open access arithmetic decides the structure. 07 Warehousing and logistics The inverse problem: enormous roof, modest load. Lighting, sorting and some HVAC peak in daylight, but the roof could generate several times what the building uses \u2014 so the settlement regime, not the structure, decides the project. Size to the meter, not the roof. Where net billing pays little for exports, the right plant is smaller than the roof invites \u2014 we will say so. Sheeting is the real survey. Pre-engineered warehouse roofs vary widely in what they can carry for twenty-five years; the structural check comes before the yield model. The tenant question is standard here. Most warehousing is leased \u2014 the tenure-matched structures on our leased-premises page were written for exactly this. What we check first: your export regime and remaining tenancy \u2014 the two things that decide whether this is a 40% roof or a 100% roof. Not on this list?

The load does not. A factory that runs three shifts draws its heaviest load in the evening, exactly when a solar plant is producing nothing. Without storage, that block of demand goes back to the grid at the most expensive tariff of the day. The battery charges on surplus generation through the middle of the day and discharges into the evening peak \u2014 so more of what the plant makes is actually consumed on site, and less of the expensive block is bought. Why it is hard Two plants sharing one point of interconnection. Storage adds a bidirectional converter, an energy management system, a fire strategy and a protection scheme that has to satisfy the state inspectorate alongside the solar plant \u2014 not instead of it. We engineer both sides, so the dispatch logic, the metering and the approvals are designed once, together, by the people who will also operate them. On site What 55 acres looks like halfway through. Photographed in July 2026, while the plant was being built. Rows going in from one edge, mounting structures still bare at the other, and the electrical works running in parallel.

Control room Built in concrete on site \u2014 this is a plant meant to run for twenty-five years, not a temporary installation. Photographed 28 July 2026. Every image on this page is this plant. Why this project matters This is the difference between an EPC and a platform. Utility scale, not roof scale 22.5 MWp on 55 acres is a different discipline from a rooftop \u2014 land, survey, grading, an internal road network, a 33 kV interconnection and a state inspectorate approval. We do that work ourselves. Storage as engineering, not a line item Sizing a battery against a real load curve, and then integrating it, is where most solar companies stop and hand you a subcontractor. Storage is our own scope. Built to be owned An increasing share of what we build we also own and operate. That changes how you specify a plant \u2014 you stop optimising for handover and start optimising for year fifteen. The plant is under construction and figures are as designed. Commercial terms, the offtaker and the financing structure are confidential.

Re-orders are the only client reference that cannot be manufactured. The company behind them The long run The plant is the easy part. Building a solar plant is a few months of work that a lot of companies can do. Keeping it at the performance you were sold, for twenty-five years, through soiling, degradation, inverter failures and staff turnover on both sides \u2014 that is the actual product. What underperformance actually looks like It is rarely dramatic. A plant does not fail \u2014 it quietly drifts. Four percent here from soiling nobody scheduled around, three there from a string that has been down since a monsoon nobody logged, another slice from an inverter derating in summer heat. Nobody notices, because the bill still went down The gap compounds silently across twenty-five years By the time it is obvious, several years of it are unrecoverable Which is why we measure performance ratio, not just generation Built for the climate it sits in Assam is not Rajasthan. Monsoon soiling, cyclonic wind loading, coastal corrosion and Himalayan snow are all different design problems, and a template applied across them produces a plant that underperforms somewhere. Structural design to the site's own wind and load case Cleaning regime set by the local soiling rate, not a national default Corrosion class chosen for the coastal and industrial environment Twenty-plus years of local irradiance behind every yield model What we actually guarantee Performance ratio \u2014 not a projection. Most solar proposals guarantee a generation number. A generation number can be missed simply because the year was cloudy, and then nobody is accountable for anything. Performance ratio PR = ACTUAL GENERATION \u00f7 (IRRADIATION \u00d7 CAPACITY) PR is irradiation-adjusted. It measures what the plant delivered against what the sun actually gave it that year \u2014 so weather is stripped out and only engineering, workmanship and maintenance remain. That is the number we put our name against. Managed fleet runs above 80% Plant availability AVAILABILITY = UPTIME \u00f7 AVAILABLE DAYLIGHT HOURS Separate from PR, because a plant can be efficient and still be switched off.

For everything else, the first meeting is free and starts from your actual bills. Land, grid & structure We don't have land. Can you find it? Yes \u2014 it is one of the things we are actually built to do. We identify parcels near a substation we have applied to, negotiate with each owner, bring every legal heir on record, obtain restricted-category permissions where they apply, and drive the agricultural-to-industrial conversion. Thirty-year encumbrance certificates and independent title verification come before any significant payment is released. How long does open-access connectivity take? It is the longest lead-time item in Indian solar, and it is state-specific. We run the full chain ourselves \u2014 substation selection, pre-feasibility, the connectivity application stages through the state nodal agency and transmission utility, right-of-way survey with alternates, and the final connectivity agreement. We site the plant within a few kilometres of the substation we have applied to, because the shortest line is the one that actually gets built. What is group captive, and would we qualify? Under the Electricity Act 2003 and Electricity Rules 2005, captive users must hold at least 26% of the equity in the generating entity and consume at least 51% of its annual generation. Meet both and you avoid cross-subsidy surcharge and additional surcharge. The catch is that the test applies every year, not just at signing \u2014 so we structure the SPV, the shareholding and the consumption profile to hold in year twelve. Do you own plants yourself, or only build them for others? Both. We build turnkey for clients who want to own the asset, and we develop, finance, own and operate plants ourselves and sell the power under long-term agreements \u2014 on-site on your roof, or off-site from our own solar parks. Which side of the capital we sit on is your decision, not ours. Can you take over a plant somebody else built? Yes, and a fair amount of our operations work is exactly that. We audit the asset, quantify the gap between what it produces and what it should, and take it on under a contract with performance ratio and availability guarantees. Underperformance is usually soiling, string-level faults left undiagnosed, or maintenance that was priced as best-effort and delivered accordingly. The site & the build Does solar actually perform in monsoon and winter? Generation varies through the year and our engineering accounts for all of it \u2014 plants are sized on 20+ years of local irradiance data, and the savings we project are annual, not sunny-day numbers. Across our operating fleet, average performance ratio exceeds 80%. Is my roof strong enough? Will it leak? A structural assessment comes before any design. Tin sheds and RCC roofs each get appropriate mounting systems, penetrations are sealed and warranted, and walkways protect the sheeting during 25 years of maintenance. We carry a 60+ MWp rooftop design portfolio \u2014 industrial roofs are our home turf. How much roof do we need \u2014 and what if it isn't enough? As a rule of thumb, about 100 sq ft of clear, usable roof per kWp; our minimum on-site project is around 200 kWp \u2014 roughly 20,000 sq ft. If the roof can't carry your full load, that is not a dead end: we maximise on-site capacity first, then serve the balance from our solar parks via open access. What happens at night or on a cloudy day? Your grid connection stays exactly as it is. Solar serves daytime load first; the grid covers the rest automatically. Surplus is exported under net metering or banking where your state allows \u2014 and battery storage can shift solar into the evening where the economics justify it. Will installation disrupt production? No. Construction happens on the roof while your plant runs. The only planned interruption is the final grid tie-in, scheduled with your electrical team \u2014 typically a short, planned shutdown. How long does the build take? Most C&I rooftops move from confirmed order to commissioning within a few months; the exact schedule is committed in your proposal and delivered by our own installation and commissioning teams. Daily photographic progress reporting keeps your team in the loop. What about safety on our roof? Walkways, safety rails and lifelines are standard, not extras. HSE norms govern design and execution, we operate ISO 9001, 14001 and 45001 systems, and the same discipline continues through 25 years of cleaning and maintenance visits. Money & models CAPEX or OPEX \u2014 which is right for us? Our default recommendation for on-site solar is CAPEX: you own the asset, keep the full saving and the depreciation benefit, and payback is roughly 3\u20134 years on strong loads. Capital need not be the constraint \u2014 we arrange project financing, typically structured 70:30 debt:equity. For select established, credit-strong organisations we also offer OPEX: zero investment, a per-unit rate typically 10\u201315% below grid, fixed for 15\u201325 years. How does the financing actually work? You own the plant; Vibgyor arranges project financing alongside it \u2014 typically structured 70:30 debt:equity and tailored to your balance sheet and banking relationships. On strong loads the annual saving is designed to comfortably service the repayments, so the plant pays for itself while you keep ownership, the depreciation benefit and the full saving after payback. What tax benefits apply? Solar plants qualify for accelerated depreciation under the Income-tax Act (the 40% WDV block for renewable-energy assets), which materially improves post-tax payback for the asset owner. GST and duty treatment are itemised transparently in the proposal; your tax advisor confirms application to your entity. What savings and payback should we expect? Sized from your actual bills, not benchmarks. Reference points from operating plants: Varun Beverages Sandila (4.5 MWp) saves \u20b93.64 Cr a year with a 3.8-year payback; Moon Beverages Dasna (4.0 MWp) saves \u20b94.54 Cr a year with a 3.3-year payback. OPEX rates run typically 10\u201315% below grid. What is guaranteed \u2014 and what if the plant underperforms? Generation and performance-ratio commitments backed by liquidated damages; availability guarantees; performance bank guarantees issued against contract value; CAR/EAR insurance through construction and operations. Fleet average PR exceeds 80% \u2014 the guarantees have teeth because the fleet performs. Levels are project-specific and confirmed in the term sheet. What happens at the end of an OPEX term \u2014 or if we want out early? OPEX contracts carry a plant-transfer option after the minimum term, on a mechanism agreed up front. Exit and buyout provisions are written into the PPA before signing \u2014 no surprises in year 12. On CAPEX you own the asset from day one, so there is nothing to unwind. Regulation, risk & getting started Who handles approvals and the DISCOM? Vibgyor runs the full regulatory chain \u2014 net-metering or net-billing applications, CEIG safety approval, DISCOM liaison and synchronisation. Your team signs; we manage the process and the follow-ups. Net metering, net billing, banking \u2014 what applies to us? It is state-specific: surplus power may be net-metered, net-billed (as at VBL Supa under MERC's 2023 regulations) or banked within state windows. We engineer plant size to your load profile so every unit earns at your state's best available treatment \u2014 the regulatory homework is ours. Our roof is small \u2014 can open access still work for us? Yes. We maximise on-site capacity first, then serve the balance load from our solar parks through open access. There is no fixed size rule \u2014 Green Energy Open Access can open the route from 100 kW in many states, and our team verifies eligibility state by state. Should we wait for battery prices before going solar? No \u2014 and you need not over-buy either. Plants are engineered storage-ready; co-located BESS shifts midday solar into the evening peak where the economics already justify it. Maharashtra now mandates co-located storage for new C&I solar above 100 kW from April 2026 \u2014 storage-paired is becoming the default, and we design for it. What if we expand \u2014 or relocate? Expansion is the norm: most of our marquee clients started with one roof and added capacity as bills proved the case. Contracts anticipate growth, and for leased or uncertain sites the screen and structure are designed around your tenure before anything is signed. How does this help our ESG reporting and buyer audits? Every MWh of solar avoids about 0.71 tonnes of CO\u2082 at the CEA grid factor, and the plant produces auditable generation data your Scope-2 reporting can cite. Clients like Varun Beverages \u2014 whose net-zero 2050 target is SBTi-validated \u2014 use their Vibgyor plants as the concrete line in that story. Who else trusts you with this? A 190+ MW footprint across 22 states and 5 countries since 2013 \u2014 with repeat orders from Varun Beverages (a PepsiCo franchisee, 23 plants), Micro Instruments, ATL (Amperex Technology), Moon Beverages, Creambell, Fortis Healthcare, Continental Engines and Bharat Seats. References and site visits can be arranged. Solar, briefly Define a solar PV system \u2014 how does it work? A solar photovoltaic system converts sunlight directly into electricity with no emission of harmful gases. Sunlight falls on the solar modules, which convert the photons into DC electricity; the inverter then converts that DC into AC power your facility can use. How much energy does a solar panel produce through the day? Energy generated is directly proportional to available sunlight, or solar irradiance. Generation in the morning and evening is lower because irradiance is low, whereas at peak hours around noon the system generates at its maximum. Media & press Vibgyor in the news.

Which regime applies to you is decided by your state commission and your sanctioned load \u2014 and it is the single biggest factor in how large a plant you should build. Regulation \u00b7 India \u00b7 Reviewed August 2026 \u00b7 3 min read Three settlement regimes operate across India, and which one applies to you is decided by your state commission and your sanctioned load \u2014 not by your solar company. It is the single biggest factor in how much an exported unit is worth, and therefore in how large a plant you should build. The three regimes Net metering Units exported to the grid are set off one-for-one against units imported, and you are billed only on the net. A unit you export in the afternoon is worth exactly as much as a unit you draw back that evening. This is the most valuable regime for a plant that runs ahead of its load \u2014 a factory with weekend shutdowns, a seasonal operation, a site whose roof is larger than its demand. Most states cap eligibility by sanctioned load or by system size, and the cap is where a lot of C&I projects quietly fall out. Net billing Imports are charged at your normal grid tariff. Exports are credited at a separate solar tariff set by the regulator \u2014 almost always lower. The two are netted in rupees, not in units. The consequence is straightforward and frequently missed: a unit you consume yourself is worth more than a unit you export. Under net billing, oversizing a plant to chase export credit destroys its own economics. This is the regime that applies to our 5.5 MWp plant at Supa, Maharashtra, under the MERC regulations of 2023. Gross metering The entire solar output is sold to the DISCOM at a notified tariff, and your whole consumption is billed at your normal tariff. The two settle against each other. Self-consumption carries no premium at all, because there is no self-consumption \u2014 everything goes out, everything comes back. Why this decides your plant size Under net metering, sizing to your annual consumption is reasonable. Under net billing or gross metering, the right target is your daytime coincident load \u2014 the demand actually present while the sun is up. Build past that and each additional unit earns the lower export rate rather than displacing a full-price one. This is why every proposal we issue starts from twelve months of your actual bills rather than your roof area. Roof area tells us the ceiling. Your load profile tells us the answer. Banking, and why it is disappearing Several states have historically allowed surplus generation to be banked \u2014 parked with the DISCOM and drawn back later, within a window. Banking is what made intermittent solar behave like firm supply without a battery. That is being withdrawn. Windows have shortened from annual to monthly or quarterly, banking charges have risen, and deviation settlement has tightened. Maharashtra has gone further, mandating co-located storage for new C&I solar above 100 kW from April 2026. The practical reading: a battery is now the thing that replaces banking. It absorbs midday surplus and releases it into the evening peak, which is exactly the service the grid used to provide for free. Where the economics are not there yet, we still engineer the plant storage-ready, because retrofitting a DC bus is expensive and planning for one is not. What to check for your own site Which regime your state applies at your sanctioned load, and whether a capacity cap bites The export or solar tariff, and how far below your import tariff it sits Whether banking is available, the window length, and the charge Your daytime coincident load, not your annual consumption Whether storage is mandated, and whether it pays before it is mandated Settlement rules are state-specific and change with each commission order.

How you buy power generated somewhere else and have it delivered to your meter \u2014 the structures, the real landed cost, and the approval chain that decides the timeline. Regulation \u00b7 India \u00b7 Reviewed August 2026 \u00b7 3 min read Rooftop solar typically meets only a slice of an industrial load \u2014 the roof runs out long before the demand does. Open access is how you buy the rest: power generated at a plant somewhere else and wheeled to your meter over the state network. It is also where most of the administrative work in Indian solar actually lives. What open access is The Electricity Act 2003 gave large consumers the right to buy power from someone other than their local distribution company and have it delivered over the existing network. You pay the generator for the power and the network owner for carriage. Nothing physical changes at your site \u2014 the same wires, the same meter, a different supplier behind them. Green Energy Open Access rules have progressively lowered the entry threshold, and in many states the route now opens from 100 kW of contracted demand rather than the 1 MW that applied for years. The threshold, the charges and the approval path are all state-specific. The three ways to structure it Third party You simply buy power from a generator under a PPA. Simplest to sign; carries the full charge stack including cross-subsidy surcharge. Captive You own the generating asset outright and consume its output. No cross-subsidy surcharge, but the capital is yours. Group captive You take at least 26% equity in the generating company and consume at least 51% of its annual output. Surcharge relief without funding the whole plant. Group captive is the structure most C&I buyers end up in, because it removes the surcharges that otherwise erode the saving while keeping the capital requirement modest. The catch is that both tests are applied every year , not once at signing \u2014 and consumption drifts as shifts change and lines are added or shut. What the charges actually are The tariff you agree with the generator is not the landed cost. On top of it sit transmission charges, wheeling charges, losses in kind, a state cess, and \u2014 depending on structure \u2014 cross-subsidy surcharge and additional surcharge. Banking charges apply where banking is available. Any comparison that shows you a per-unit generation tariff against your current bill is not a comparison. The number that matters is landed cost at your meter , after every charge, against your current effective tariff for the same units. The approval chain This is the part that determines whether a project happens on schedule or at all, and it runs through several bodies: Eligibility \u2014 confirm the connected-load threshold and the applicable state policy Connectivity \u2014 apply to the transmission or distribution utility for a connection point Open access approval \u2014 short, medium or long term, at state or central level depending on where the generator sits Structure \u2014 incorporate the SPV and put the shareholding in place if group captive Metering \u2014 ABT-compliant meters at both ends, tested and sealed Scheduling registration \u2014 register with the load despatch centre for day-ahead scheduling Commercial go-live \u2014 energisation, then monthly settlement against scheduled versus actual Two of these \u2014 land with clean title, and a connectivity slot \u2014 take longer than building the plant. They are the reason projects slip by quarters rather than weeks, and they are the reason we do both in-house rather than through a consultant. After it is energised Open access is not a set-and-forget arrangement. Someone has to schedule day-ahead, manage deviation settlement, handle banking drawdown inside the state's window, reconcile the DISCOM invoice, and monetise surplus. Savings leak here quietly and continuously if nobody owns it. Open access is state-regulated and the position changes with each commission order.

Disclosure obligations, supply-chain scorecards and border carbon mechanisms have put a number next to your electricity. Solar is the line item that moves it and pays for itself. Compliance \u00b7 India \u00b7 Reviewed August 2026 \u00b7 3 min read Most ESG pages about solar talk about brand image. That is not why Indian manufacturers are signing power purchase agreements. They are signing because a disclosure obligation, a customer questionnaire or an export mechanism has put a number next to their electricity, and solar is the only line item that moves that number and pays for itself. Where the pressure actually comes from Your own disclosure obligation SEBI's Business Responsibility and Sustainability Report applies to India's largest listed companies and requires energy and emissions data to be reported in a standard format, with a subset assured rather than self-declared. If you are inside that perimeter, your electricity consumption is already a reported figure that someone signs off. Your customer's obligation, passed down This is the bigger driver for most manufacturers, and it arrives without any regulation applying to you directly. A multinational buyer with a validated net-zero target has to account for its supply chain emissions \u2014 and your factory is inside that boundary. The questionnaire arrives, then the scorecard, then the renewable expectation written into the supply agreement. Our own clients illustrate the pattern. Varun Beverages holds an SBTi-validated net-zero target; the plants we built for them are a concrete line in that story rather than a statement of intent. Export exposure The EU's Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism prices the embedded carbon in certain imported goods \u2014 steel, aluminium, cement, fertiliser, hydrogen and electricity among them. For an Indian exporter in those categories, the carbon intensity of the power used to make the product stops being a reputational matter and becomes a landed-cost matter. What solar actually does to the number Grid electricity is almost always the largest single line in an Indian manufacturer's Scope 2 emissions. Displacing it with generation you own or contract for is the most direct lever available. At the CEA grid emission factor, roughly 0.71 tonnes of CO\u2082 is avoided per MWh of solar generation. A 4.5 MWp rooftop generating around 7,300 MWh a year therefore avoids on the order of 5,200 tonnes annually. That is a reportable, auditable figure, not an estimate \u2014 it comes off the same meter your savings do. Why auditability matters more than the headline An assured disclosure needs a number somebody can check. A solar plant produces one by default: metered generation, logged continuously, reconciled monthly against design. Where the plant is behind your meter, the attribution is unambiguous \u2014 the units were generated on your site and consumed by your load. Off-site supply through open access is equally reportable but the paperwork differs; the contractual and metering trail has to establish that the units delivered to you are the units you are claiming. That is a structuring question, and it is worth settling before signing rather than at your first assurance cycle. A caution on double counting If green attributes attached to your generation are sold separately as certificates, you cannot also claim the emissions reduction \u2014 the attribute has been transferred to whoever bought it. Decide at contract stage whether attributes stay with you or are monetised, because trying to have both is exactly what an assurance provider is looking for. What to settle before you sign Which reporting framework you are actually inside, and whether the data needs assurance Whether your largest customers have committed targets that reach your site Whether your export categories carry a border carbon exposure Who retains the green attributes \u2014 you or the generator What the metering and contractual trail looks like for off-site supply Disclosure obligations, emission factors and border mechanisms change with each regulatory cycle.

Structuring \u00b7 India \u00b7 Reviewed August 2026 \u00b7 2 min read Plenty of manufacturers rule out solar in one sentence: we lease the building. It is a reasonable instinct and usually the wrong conclusion. The obstacle is not the lease \u2014 it is that a twenty-five year asset is being pushed onto a seven-year tenancy without anyone restructuring the deal to fit. The three problems, named properly Term mismatch A solar plant pays back over years and generates for decades. A lease runs to a fixed date. If the plant is sized and financed against twenty-five years of generation but your right to occupy ends in six, the arithmetic underneath the proposal is not yours. Roof rights A lease grants you the premises. It does not automatically grant you the roof, the right to penetrate it, or the right to put a third party's asset on it for a quarter of a century. That permission has to be obtained explicitly and documented. Who owns what at exit If you vacate, the plant does not follow you. Somebody has to have decided in advance whether it is removed, transferred to the landlord, or bought out \u2014 and at what price. What actually resolves it Match the contract to the tenure, not to the asset The most common fix is the simplest. A power purchase agreement written to the remaining lease term, with a defined position at expiry, converts an unfinanceable project into a normal one. We would rather write a seven-year PPA that works than a twenty-year one that has to be unwound. Bring the landlord in as a party, early A roof-rights agreement or a tripartite structure \u2014 occupier, landlord, generator \u2014 is standard and rarely contentious once the landlord understands what is being asked. The plant improves their asset, they carry no capital, and they usually gain an option over it later. The conversation fails when it happens late, not when it happens. Let someone else own the plant On an OPEX or RESCO structure you do not own the asset at all. We finance, build, insure and operate it, and you buy the power it produces at an agreed rate. That removes the capital question from a leased site entirely, and it moves the tenure risk to the party best placed to price it. Or leave the roof out of it If the tenure is genuinely too short or the landlord will not engage, the roof is not the only route. Open access delivers power from a plant somewhere else entirely, wheeled to your meter. It is indifferent to who owns your building. For short-tenure or multi-site occupiers this is often the cleaner answer.

A behind-the-meter captive plant is a different procurement category from a scheme project. If a bidder has priced a premium in, ask which order requires it. Regulation \u00b7 India \u00b7 Reviewed August 2026 \u00b7 4 min read If a bidder has quoted you a premium for ALMM-listed modules on a behind-the-meter captive rooftop, ask them which order requires it. On a good number of projects, nothing does \u2014 and you are being charged for a compliance obligation you do not have. What the list is The Approved List of Models and Manufacturers is an MNRE instrument. It is not a quality mark and not a safety standard; it is a procurement restriction. Modules sit on List I , and cells on List II . Being on it means the manufacturer has been through MNRE's enlistment process \u2014 it says nothing about whether one listed module outperforms another. Certification is a separate matter entirely. IEC 61215 and IEC 61730 are the international standards that establish a module will survive twenty-five years on your roof, and they apply whether or not the manufacturer appears on any Indian list. Those are the ones your engineer should be checking. Where it bites Historically ALMM applied where public money or a public scheme was involved: government and government-assisted projects, projects under central and state schemes, and \u2014 in a number of states \u2014 projects taking net metering, because net metering is a regulated benefit granted by the DISCOM. That scope has widened, and open access is now inside it. Projects commissioned on or after 1 June 2026 require modules from List I and cells from List II. If you are buying power through open access or building a group captive plant, assume the requirement applies and plan procurement around it \u2014 the interesting question there is not whether to comply but whether your contract says who carries the cost if the lists or the dates move again. The distinction that still matters. A plant built purely behind your own meter, serving your own load, taking no scheme benefit and claiming no net-metering export, remains a different procurement category from an open access park or a scheme project. That is the case where the requirement is routinely treated as not applying \u2014 and it is a narrower case than it was two years ago. This is not a loophole and it is not aggressive interpretation. It is the ordinary reading of what the restriction is for: the list governs procurement where the public is paying, not what a private industrial consumer chooses to put on their own roof for their own consumption. Why it costs you money Restricting a captive project to the list narrows the supply pool. A narrower pool means less competitive pricing, and on a large rooftop that difference is real capital. Worse, the restriction sometimes gets applied on a project where it was never required, and the premium is quietly kept by whoever quoted it. The reverse error is just as expensive. A project that does need ALMM modules, built with modules that are not listed, can lose the benefit it was designed around \u2014 and the remedy is replacing modules on a commissioned plant. What to ask before you sign Does my project actually attract the requirement? Ask for the specific basis: the route to market, the scheme, the metering regime, or the approval that triggers it. \u201cBest practice\u201d is not a basis \u2014 but for open access, since June 2026, the basis exists. When will it be commissioned? The obligation attaches to the commissioning date, not the order date. A project that slips across a threshold can change category mid-build. If I am taking net metering, what does my state require? This is where the answer most often changes, and it is state-specific. What is the price difference, itemised? If the requirement does not apply, the premium should not be in the quote. If it does, you should still see what it costs you. Are the modules IEC 61215 and 61730 certified, and what is the warranty? At least 90% output to year ten and 80% to year twenty-five is the level worth holding a supplier to. What happens if the rules change mid-build? ALMM scope and enforcement dates have moved more than once. Who carries that risk should be in the contract, not assumed. How we handle it We establish which regime a project sits under before specifying modules, and we say so in writing. Where the requirement applies, we source to it. Where it does not, we do not charge you as though it did \u2014 we widen the supply pool and pass the benefit through, holding the same IEC certification and warranty standard either way. The honest position is that this is one of the more moveable areas of Indian solar regulation. Anyone who tells you the answer is simple, in either direction, is not reading the orders. ALMM scope, list contents and enforcement dates are set by MNRE and have been revised several times \u2014 most recently extending to open access from 1 June 2026, with a List II exemption window that has its own expiry. State net-metering regulations vary independently. Nothing here is a compliance opinion.

They are not alternatives. One is how the electricity reaches you. The other decides which charges you pay when it arrives \u2014 and whether the two heaviest ones apply at all. Structuring \u00b7 India \u00b7 Reviewed August 2026 \u00b7 3 min read These two get put on a slide as a choice, and they are not one. Open access is the route the electricity takes to reach you. Group captive is the ownership structure that decides which charges you pay when it gets there. Almost every group captive project in India is also an open access project. Getting the distinction straight is worth money, because the question is never \u201cwhich one?\u201d \u2014 it is \u201cdo we bother with the equity structure on top of the wheeling arrangement?\u201d Open access: the route Your plant is somewhere else \u2014 our solar park, typically \u2014 and the power reaches your factory over the state network. You apply for open access, the power is scheduled, and you pay the network for carrying it. What you pay on top of the generation tariff: Wheeling and transmission charges \u2014 the cost of using the distribution and transmission systems. Losses \u2014 a percentage of the energy, absorbed in transit. Cross-subsidy surcharge \u2014 a levy that compensates the DISCOM for the subsidised customer you have stopped funding. Additional surcharge \u2014 charged where the DISCOM argues it has stranded capacity contracted on your behalf. The last two are the large ones, and they are the reason a headline generation tariff and a landed cost can be very different numbers. Group captive: the structure Group captive is defined by the Electricity Act 2003 and the Electricity Rules 2005. If the consumers of the power collectively hold at least 26% of the equity in the generating company, and collectively consume at least 51% of what it generates , measured annually, the plant is captive to them. What the structure buys. Captive status exempts the consumer from the cross-subsidy surcharge and the additional surcharge \u2014 the two heaviest line items above. That exemption is the entire commercial reason the structure exists. You still wheel the power. You still pay wheeling, transmission and losses. You have simply changed what you are, in regulatory terms, from a third-party buyer into an owner consuming your own generation. So which do you need? If your load is large and the surcharges in your state are heavy, the equity structure usually pays for itself many times over. If your consumption is modest, or your state's surcharges are light, straight third-party open access is simpler and the saving may be adequate. The structure is not free. It brings an equity investment, a shareholders' agreement, an annual compliance test and a genuine consequence for failing it. The test that catches people The 26% is a one-time act. The 51% is an annual obligation, and it is where projects fail \u2014 usually years later, quietly. A plant sized against today's consumption fails the moment a line shuts, a shift pattern changes, a unit is sold, or the group restructures. Consumption falls, generation does not, and the share drops below the threshold. The test does not care why. In some states the surcharges can be recovered retrospectively \u2014 which can claw back the saving that justified the project in the first place. The defence is sizing. A group captive plant should be sized against real consumption with headroom, not against the maximum the site could theoretically absorb in a good year. What to establish before committing Your state's actual surcharge levels and whether recent orders have moved them. This is the single biggest variable in the answer. Banking rules. Whether surplus can be banked, for how long, at what charge, and whether it lapses at year end. Banking terms have tightened in several states and can change the economics materially. Your consumption trajectory across the group, honestly \u2014 including the sites you might close. Whether the exemption survives for the full contract term under current policy direction, and who carries the risk if it does not. Test your numbers against both thresholds \u2014 the eligibility checker on our project development page shows the largest plant that still clears the 51% test on your consumption. Thresholds are set by the Electricity Act 2003 and the Electricity Rules 2005; state commissions apply them through their own open access regulations, and the detail of how generation and consumption are measured varies. Surcharge levels, banking terms and exemptions are state-specific and change with each tariff order. This is background, not an eligibility opinion \u2014 we confirm the position against the applicable SERC order before quoting.
