The bill
A hot May evening. Ramesh Patil opens the light bill: ₹3,200 again. Sunita worries: the children need the fan and the study light every night.
Scroll down. Seven short scenes, from a ₹3,200 light bill to a bill of ₹130.
A hot May evening. Ramesh Patil opens the light bill: ₹3,200 again. Sunita worries: the children need the fan and the study light every night.
Their daughter Priya shows them on the phone: PM Surya Ghar: Muft Bijli Yojana. Subsidy up to ₹78,000 for rooftop solar, and up to 300 units of free electricity a month.
“But we don’t have two lakh rupees.” SAIITECH’s engineer explains the bank loan: the monthly EMI is about the same as the bill they already pay, and the subsidy goes straight to their bank.
One visit. Aadhaar, light bill and bank passbook are photographed on the phone. SAIITECH fills the national portal, the MSEDCL papers and the loan file.
The team arrives in the morning. By evening the panels are on the roof, the inverter is on the wall, and MSEDCL fits the net meter.
In the afternoon the meter runs backwards. The next bill: ₹130, only the fixed charge. And the subsidy arrives in the bank account.
The children study under a bright light, the fan keeps running, and the Patils stop counting units. The same can happen on your roof.
