The rear half
The concrete the lane shade does not take is the only place we draw a row.
Lanes behind the bazaar
Solar panels for your home in T. Nagar.
The block across the lane is often already taller than the house. It shades the lane side at the same hours every day. That half stays bare. The row sits on the rear half. The visit from Madipakkam is free.
Shade from across the lane
The lane side stays bare.
We do not raise the frame to climb over the building across the street. We mark the rear half that shade does not take, leave the tank and a walkway, and see whether that area matches the home's daytime use. If the block across the lane is about the same height, the terrace is not cut in half.
A neighbour's sunshade that only crosses the parapet is the Teynampet case. A same-height house that only needs a walkway is the Thalambur case. A shop board or an exhaust left on the terrace is the Alwarpet case. The home meter, not the shop bill, is the Palavakkam case. One slab shared by two families is the Kovilambakkam case. A flat in a large community is the Sholinganallur case. A taller apartment on the next plot, not across a bazaar lane, is the Thoraipakkam case. City-wide module choice is on panels for a Chennai home.

The lane side
If the block across the street is already taller, that half stays bare. The frame is not lifted over it.
03
Tank and walkway
On the rear half, the tank stays and a path stays. The row uses what remains.

DCR
Central assistance needs cells and modules made in India. Eligible homes can receive up to ₹78,000. The amount follows the scheme on the day you apply.
Who it suits
A house with its own terrace.
Independent houses on the lanes behind the bazaar are the usual fit. A portion on an upper floor cannot claim a roof the building still shares. A flat cannot claim the common roof of a large block. The plant is not sized from a shop bill. That choice is on the Palavakkam page.
How the row is fixed once the rear half is clear is on solar panel installation. Modules you already hold are labour from ₹3,000 per kW, materials excluded, on installation services. The T. Nagar figure is on solar panels and prices in T. Nagar. How the crew sets the row is on solar panels and installation in T. Nagar. The subsidy gap is on panel and price. NDCR against DCR is in that guide before an import is confirmed.
Show the lane side and the rear
The lane, then the row.
Do you visit T. Nagar from Madipakkam?
Yes. The roof visit is free. A recent bill and a photo of the lane side and the rear of the terrace are enough to start. No modules are ordered that day.
Can the row face the bazaar lane?
Not if the block across the lane already shades that side at the same hours. That half stays bare. The row sits on the rear half.
The building across the lane is the same height. Does the same limit apply?
No. A same-height neighbour does not take half the terrace. A walkway at that parapet is enough.
Do subsidy plants need DCR modules?
Yes. Cells and modules must be made in India. Eligible homes can receive up to ₹78,000, subject to the scheme on the day you apply. NDCR is only if that assistance has already been given up.
Send a photo of the lane side and the rear.
A free visit from Madipakkam. We leave the shaded lane side bare, and note whether the plant should be DCR.
