The local picture
What happens to solar when you sell the house
A rooftop solar system is a fixture attached to the building, so on a sale it passes with the property rather than being removed. What needs handling at the point of sale is the electricity connection, the net metering arrangement and the warranty documentation, none of which transfers automatically simply because the property has.
What has to be dealt with on a sale
The electricity connection name transfer
The net metering agreement is tied to the service connection, so the connection transfer at the section office is what carries the arrangement to the new owner. This is the step people forget.
The net metering agreement and both meters
These stay with the property, but the new owner should confirm at the section office that records reflect the change.
Warranty documentation
Panel performance warranties, inverter warranty and any workmanship warranty should be handed over with the sale papers. Manufacturer warranties are generally attached to the product and the installation rather than to a named person, but the documentation is what makes them usable.
The subsidy
Once disbursed after commissioning, it has been paid and is not clawed back on a subsequent sale. A subsidy claimed but not yet received is a different matter and should be settled before completion.
Any maintenance contract
Which may or may not be transferable depending on its terms.
The honest answer on value
Solar plausibly should add to what a property fetches, but valuation does not reflect it consistently
It lowers running costs materially and the asset has decades of life left, but Indian residential valuation does not yet capture that reliably and we would be overstating things to promise a specific uplift. What is reliably true is that a documented, well-maintained system with generation records is far more persuasive to a buyer than an undocumented one. Keep the commissioning certificate, generation records, warranty documents and maintenance history together: on a sale that file is what turns a claim into evidence.

- The survey is free. We measure usable area and shading, check your connection and sanctioned load, and photograph the site.
- You get an itemised quotation naming every component and brand, with the subsidy or depreciation position set out.
- No obligation at any point. If solar does not make sense for your property, we will say so.
Common questions
Solar in Mandaveli, common questions
It passes with the property as a fixture rather than being removed. What needs handling is the electricity connection transfer at the section office, since the net metering agreement is tied to the connection, and handing over the warranty documentation and commissioning certificate with the sale papers.
Once the subsidy has been disbursed after commissioning it has been paid and is not clawed back on a subsequent sale. A subsidy claimed but not yet received is a different matter and should be settled before completion, since it is paid to the applicant’s account against a specific connection.
It plausibly should, given the lower running cost and the decades of remaining asset life, but Indian residential valuation does not yet reflect it consistently and we would be overstating things to promise an uplift. What is reliably true is that a documented, well-maintained system with generation records is far more persuasive to a buyer.
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.
