India’s Rooftop Solar Market Gains Pace as Urban Adoption Rises

India’s rooftop solar market is witnessing renewed momentum in December 2025 as urban households and MSMEs increasingly turn to solar power to manage rising electricity costs and improve energy reliability.

Improved awareness of net-metering benefits, faster DISCOM approvals, and declining equipment costs have contributed to stronger adoption across metros and tier-2 cities.

Hybrid inverters and battery-ready systems are becoming the preferred choice, allowing consumers to future-proof installations as energy storage becomes more affordable.

Outlook: Industry experts expect rooftop installations to remain a key growth driver in 2026 as financing options and installer networks expand.
