Solar Panel Installation in Pammal
We model both your domestic and commercial connection before recommending either
Pammal mixes independent housing with small industrial and workshop units, often on the same street and sometimes in the same building. That raises a question with real money attached: which tariff category your connection sits in, because it decides whether you can claim the subsidy at all.

The local picture
A workshop at home changes the answer
Pammal’s mix of residential housing and small industrial units means many properties sit somewhere between the two, with a workshop, small production unit or trade premises operating from or alongside a home. The tariff category on the electricity connection determines which support applies, and the difference is substantial.
The practical questions
Which category is your connection actually in?
It is stated on your bill, and it may not match what you assume.
Where does the load sit?
If the workshop consumes most of the electricity, a system on the domestic connection will not offset it.
Do you have one connection or two?
Some properties here run separate meters for the residence and the unit, which makes it a genuine choice rather than a given.
Can you use the tax benefit?
Accelerated depreciation is worth nothing without taxable profit to offset, which matters for small units running thin margins.
We set out both positions at the survey
This decision is worth more than the difference between two hardware quotes
Rather than defaulting to whichever connection is convenient. Small industrial units here typically have modest sheet or RCC roofs, and the design is straightforward once the connection question is settled. Commercial tariffs mean each displaced unit saves more than a domestic one, which partly offsets the absence of a subsidy.

Workshop attached to the house?
Then which connection the system serves decides whether you get a subsidy or a tax benefit. We model both rather than defaulting to the convenient one.
What happens after you send your details
- We call you within one working day, and an engineer rather than a salesperson attends the site.
- The survey is free. We measure usable area and shading, check your connection and sanctioned load, and photograph the site.

- No obligation at any point. If solar does not make sense for your property, we will say so.
Common questions
Solar in Pammal, common questions
It can, entirely. PM Surya Ghar is a residential scheme, so a system on a commercial or industrial connection gets no subsidy. What a business gets instead is accelerated depreciation of up to 40% in the first year plus GST input credit, and a higher tariff means each displaced unit saves more. Which is better depends on your load split and tax position.
It is stated on your electricity bill, and it may not match what you assume. On a mixed property the more useful question is where the load actually sits, because a system on the domestic connection will not offset workshop consumption metered separately.
Only with taxable profit to offset. For a small unit running thin margins or carrying forward losses it is worth little, which is why we set out both the domestic and commercial positions at the survey rather than assuming the business route is better.
Six to ten weeks from survey to a live, net-metered system, with TANGEDCO approval and meter installation the main variable. The installation itself is one to three days for a residential system, and longer for a commercial or industrial project.
Yes. We file the PM Surya Ghar application and the TANGEDCO net metering application, follow both through the section office, and track the subsidy to your bank account. We also check the name on your electricity connection at the survey, since a mismatch stops applications more often than any technical issue.
Two years of free maintenance from commissioning, covering panel cleaning, annual inspection of connections and structure, generation monitoring and warranty coordination with the manufacturer.
