Essential
Reliable and practical solar solution.
Who this plan is for
Your main goal is a smaller monthly bill, your supply is reasonably reliable, and you want a sensible system without paying for capability you will not use. Nothing is trimmed from the electrical safety side to reach this level.
System overview
Sized to your electricity usage and available shadow-free roof area
Your daytime usage runs on solar instead of DISCOM units, so the bill comes down. During a power cut the system shuts down like any on-grid system. There is no battery at this level.

Warranty
Worth knowing: A product warranty covers manufacturing and material defects in the panel. A performance warranty covers how much power that panel still produces years later. They run for different lengths and they cover different things, so a single headline number tells you very little.
- Kapizo installation workmanship warranty3 years from commissioning
- Provided by Kapizo Solar
Defects directly attributable to Kapizo installation workmanship, including mounting and roof-penetration workmanship, wiring joints and terminations, and loose connections caused by installation quality.This is the part we control, so it is the part we state as a firm commitment. Detailed terms come with your quotation. - Solar module product warrantyPer the selected manufacturer
- Provided by Module manufacturer
Manufacturing and material defects in the panel itself.Durations differ by make and model, so the figure that applies to your system is confirmed in your quotation rather than promised here. - Solar module performance warrantyPer the selected manufacturer
- Provided by Module manufacturer
The panel's power output over time, measured against that manufacturer's published degradation curve.Module makers commonly publish a long performance warranty, considerably longer than the product warranty on the same panel. The two cover different things and the exact terms are the manufacturer's, not ours. - Inverter warrantyPer the selected manufacturer
- Provided by Inverter manufacturer
The inverter unit, on that manufacturer's terms for the selected model.Many models offer a paid extension. Worth asking about, since the inverter usually needs attention before anything else on the roof. - Optional annual maintenance contract (AMC)
- Available as an optional service for preventive maintenance and cleaning, subject to Kapizo Solar's AMC offering at the time.
Equipment warranties are provided according to the selected manufacturer's applicable warranty terms. Because the modules, inverter and balance-of-system are chosen to suit your site, the durations that apply to your system are confirmed in your quotation.
Roof leakage
- If leakage is directly caused by Kapizo installation workmanship, for example a roof penetration we made or sealed, it is covered during the workmanship warranty period.
- Pre-existing leakage, structural defects, deteriorated or ageing roofing material, unrelated civil work, and modifications made by others are not Kapizo workmanship defects and fall outside this warranty.
Roof condition is noted during the site assessment. Where a roof already shows signs of leakage or deterioration, we tell you before installation rather than after.
Exact warranty coverage, exclusions and terms are provided in the final quotation and warranty documents.
Pricing and subsidy
Price
Final pricing is shared after understanding your electricity usage, system requirement and site conditions.
Cost depends on capacity, roof type, structure height, cable runs and component selection, so we quote against your actual site rather than publishing a rate.
Subsidy
Eligible residential consumers may receive Central Financial Assistance of up to ₹78,000 under PM Surya Ghar, subject to the scheme's eligibility requirements, approved process and DISCOM requirements. This is separate from the project price and is not a discount we control.
Read about PM Surya Ghar- • On-grid systems do not operate during a grid outage, because the inverter must disconnect for line-worker safety.
- • The exact manufacturer, model, wattage and quantity of modules, the inverter model, the structure specification and the balance-of-system specification are confirmed in your final quotation.
- • Exact warranty coverage, exclusions and terms are provided in the final quotation and warranty documents.
- • Final specification and pricing are confirmed after site assessment.
- • Government scheme benefits, eligibility and subsidy amounts are subject to applicable government guidelines and may change. Verify the current position through official government channels.
