The subsidy makes the 3 kW system seem about ₹1.2 lakh, but the real payback is much longer when your panels are dirty and losing efficiency in this heat. My own system, installed with so much hope, now gives half the promised units because I cannot climb to clean it regularly. The company's maintenance promise vanished after one year, and the inverter trouble last monsoon cost me ₹8,000 extra. So you see, without a reliable hand for upkeep, can the calculation ever be correct?
