Open strip
Tank, stair cover, and pots stay. Modules occupy only the clear width that is left, with a walkway beside them.
From the Madipakkam office
The office is on Medavakkam Main Road, opposite Kumaran Theatre. Most roofs we see here are independent-house terraces the family still uses. Modules go on the open strip, and a path stays. Walk in Monday to Saturday, 9 am to 7 pm, or send the bill first. Nothing is ordered at the counter.

A roof that stays in use
Houses off Medavakkam Main Road, including lanes in Balaji Nagar and Vigneshwar Nagar, often keep a water tank, a stair cover, and a line of pots on the roof. That used space comes off the drawing. What is left, parapet to parapet, is the strip that can take modules. The house next door can shade one edge in the morning or the evening. That edge is marked and left bare.
Module choice for the wider city is on panels for a Chennai home. A neighbouring tower and a wet corner are the Velachery checks. Salt on the hardware belongs on the coast. Here the limit is a working house roof a few minutes from the office.
Open strip onlyTerrace still usableOffice in MadipakkamWhat the visit records
Tank, stair cover, and pots stay. Modules occupy only the clear width that is left, with a walkway beside them.
If the next house covers a side in the morning or the evening, that side stays empty. The rest is counted only if the clear hours are useful.
The electricity bill shows what the house draws while the sun is up. The row is sized to that use. The EB connection stays.
Central assistance needs cells and modules made in India. Eligible homes can receive up to ₹78,000. The amount follows the scheme rules on the day you apply.
Who it suits
Independent houses are the usual fit. A small apartment proceeds only after the association has allowed that household to use the terrace, in writing. A balcony or a setback is not a place for modules.
Modules you already have are fitted as labour. That scope is on installation services. The Madipakkam figure is on solar panels and prices in Madipakkam. How the crew sets the row is on solar panels and installation in Madipakkam. How to read the figure, including the subsidy gap, is on panel and price. NDCR against DCR is in that guide before a cheaper import is confirmed.
From this neighbourhood
Yes. No.5, MSP Complex, F-3, Medavakkam Main Road, opposite Kumaran Theatre. Monday to Saturday, 9 am to 7 pm. A roof visit is free and is booked when the team is free.
If an open strip remains, yes. The pots and the tank stay. If that strip is too short to be useful, we say so and do not force a row.
It rules out that edge. The rest of the roof can still be used when the clear hours are enough. We leave the shaded side bare.
Yes, for central assistance of up to ₹78,000. Cells and modules must be made in India, and the amount follows the scheme then in force. NDCR is only if that subsidy has already been given up.
Or send a terrace photo. We note the open strip, the shaded edge, and whether the plant should be DCR. Nothing is ordered at the counter.
