After subsidy, a 3kW system costs around one lakh fifty thousand rupees, they say. But the real payback? For a family like mine with two ACs, even that will stretch beyond seven years—this Pune heat and dust on the panels cuts the generation by more than you think. My neighbor Govind got one; last summer he was still complaining about his electricity bill, running to wipe the panels every other day. So for us, that money is still for my granddaughter's school books first, not for the roof.
