Karnataka Rooftop Solar Timeline (2026)

While the National Portal has unified the application interface, the physical execution still depends on local DISCOM efficiency. In Karnataka, expect the process to take **45 to 60 days**.

The 60-Day Execution Roadmap

Phase	Action & Responsibility	Estimated Duration
1. Technical Feasibility	Apply online. Local AEE verifies transformer load and issues approval.	7 to 10 Days
2. Procurement & Installation	Vendor procures DCR panels, constructs the mounting structure, and wires the system.	15 to 20 Days
3. Documentation & CEIG	Vendor uploads the Work Completion Report (and CEIG clearance if system > 10kW).	3 to 7 Days
4. Inspection & Net Metering	DISCOM inspects the site, installs the bi-directional meter, and issues Commissioning Certificate.	10 to 14 Days
5. Subsidy Processing	Upload bank details on the portal. MNRE processes the DBT directly to your account.	15 to 20 Days
