Replace expensive commercial tariffs (₹11–₹14+/kWh) with zero-cost daytime solar power. Benefit from 40% accelerated depreciation under Section 32 and under 3.2-year capital payback.
Under Maharashtra State Electricity Distribution Co. Ltd. (MSEDCL), commercial power tariffs (LT-II Non-Residential and HT Commercial) are among the highest in India, frequently exceeding ₹11 to ₹14+ per unit when including fuel adjustment charges and electricity duties. Because commercial air conditioning, illumination, computing infrastructure, and ventilation operate during peak daylight hours (9:00 AM to 6:00 PM), on-site solar generation directly displaces top-tier utility tariffs, creating an unprecedented return on investment.
*Accelerated depreciation under Section 32 of Income Tax Act is available to eligible commercial and corporate entities. Consult your tax advisor for specific entity compliance.
From tech corridors in Hinjewadi to private hospitals in Baner and educational institutes in Kothrud, our solar engineering adapts to your unique roof structural load and power demand profile.
Office towers and IT parks in Hinjewadi, Kharadi, and Baner experience constant HVAC, server, and lighting loads during daylight hours. We design multi-inverter setups with zero export options or MSEDCL net metering to eliminate peak commercial billing.
Healthcare institutions require non-stop reliable power for ICUs, surgical suites, and diagnostic equipment. Commercial solar acts as the primary cost-saving energy layer, seamlessly synchronizing with dual grid lines and backup diesel generators.
Hospitality properties in Pune, PCMC, and Lonavala face intensive electricity consumption from central chillers, banquet hall HVACs, swimming pool pumps, and commercial laundry machines.
Educational institutions feature expansive RCC terrace footprints and metal auditoriums that remain unoccupied on weekends and holidays. Net-metering banks surplus weekend power directly back into MSEDCL's grid.
High-traffic commercial complexes run extensive display lighting, high-volume AHUs, and escalator motors throughout the day. Solar significantly reduces common area maintenance (CAM) energy expenses.
Large residential societies in Baner, Wakad, and Kharadi pay hefty commercial rates for common meter consumption (water lifting pumps, clubhouse AC, street lighting, and lift operations).
Based on Pune's average annual solar irradiance of 5.2 to 5.4 kWh/m²/day and prevailing MSEDCL commercial electricity tariffs (avg. ₹12.50/kWh).
| System Size | Avg. Daily Generation | Monthly Power Units | Est. Monthly Savings | Est. Annual Savings | Roof Space Needed | Est. Payback |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 15 kWp | 60 – 65 Units | ~1,800 Units | ₹22,500 – ₹25,000 | ₹2.70 – ₹3.00 Lakhs | 1,200 sq. ft. | 3.2 Years |
| 25 kWp | 100 – 110 Units | ~3,100 Units | ₹38,000 – ₹42,000 | ₹4.50 – ₹5.00 Lakhs | 2,000 sq. ft. | 3.1 Years |
| 50 kWp | 200 – 220 Units | ~6,200 Units | ₹77,000 – ₹85,000 | ₹9.20 – ₹10.2 Lakhs | 4,000 sq. ft. | 3.0 Years |
| 100 kWp | 400 – 440 Units | ~12,500 Units | ₹1,55,000 – ₹1,70,000 | ₹18.5 – ₹20.5 Lakhs | 8,000 sq. ft. | 2.9 Years |
| 250 kWp+ | 1,000 – 1,100 Units | ~31,000 Units | ₹3,85,000 – ₹4,20,000 | ₹46.0 – ₹50.0 Lakhs | 20,000 sq. ft. | 2.8 Years |

While commercial systems focus on offices, institutions, and hospitals under LT-II/HT commercial tariffs, manufacturing plants and heavy fabrication units in MIDC industrial areas (Chakan, Bhosari, Talegaon, Ranjangaon) require specialized HT electrical engineering, CEIG clearances, harmonic filtration, and crane-safe structural mounting.

Our technical solar engineers will inspect your facility's roof structure, load profile, and MSEDCL sanction to provide an exact generation and ROI proposal.
Commercial power tariffs in Pune under MSEDCL (LT-II and HT Commercial) range between ₹11 to ₹14+ per kWh. Commercial facilities run air conditioning, lighting, servers, and elevators during daytime hours (9 AM to 6 PM), which coincides exactly with peak solar irradiance. Solar power displaces expensive grid electricity unit-for-unit, typically yielding a 2.8 to 3.5 year capital payback.
Yes. Under Section 32 of the Income Tax Act, eligible commercial enterprises and companies investing in rooftop solar power generation systems can claim 40% accelerated depreciation in the first year of commissioning, significantly reducing income tax liability. Consult your chartered accountant or corporate tax advisor for specific entity eligibility and filing guidelines.
We engineer commercial rooftop systems ranging from 15 kW for standalone clinics, boutique offices, and restaurants, up to 500 kW+ for corporate IT parks, multi-specialty hospitals, large colleges, and shopping malls.
MSEDCL permits grid-tied rooftop solar net metering for commercial LT and HT consumers up to their sanctioned load. A bi-directional meter records solar power sent to the grid and power consumed from MSEDCL. Surplus daytime generation credits are offset against your monthly electricity billing cycle.
Yes. We engineer elevated superstructures (7–10 ft clearance) on RCC roofs that preserve 100% of usable terrace space for cafeteria seating or recreational zones. We also design solar carports over commercial parking areas, providing vehicle shade while generating clean power.
