Start with whether the vendor is empanelled with local Discoms or state/national rooftop schemes. Empanelled vendors are more likely to provide correct subsidy paperwork and smooth commissioning.

Ask for portfolio images, local references and online reviews. Confirm the vendor’s experience with installations of similar size and in your region (net-metering rules vary by state).

A reliable quote should list panel & inverter make/model, expected AC output, warranties (panel, inverter, workmanship), mounting details and timeline.

Make sure the vendor helps with net-metering applications, final Discom inspections and offers O&M options or monitoring (dashboards/mobile apps).

• Browse empanelled vendors by location and project size.
• See vendor portfolios, customer reviews and service offerings.
• Send your requirement to multiple vendors from one place and compare quotes.

Note: “Get bid from solar expert” (https://solsetu.com/solsetu-customer-requirement/) is intended for customers who want to receive cost estimates for on-grid rooftop solar installations and related services. The “Advertise with us” and “Publish News” pages are for vendors and marketers who want to promote services, post company news, or run campaigns on SolSetu.

• Verify empanelment / government approvals where applicable.
• Get at least 2–3 detailed quotes with itemised line items.
• Confirm expected annual yield (kWh) and payback estimate.
• Inspect warranty terms and claim process (panels typically 10–25 years; inverters 5–10 years).
• Confirm whether the vendor will handle net-metering application and Discom coordination.
