Patan Division, which reports to UGVCL's Mehsana Circle. No Torrent Power or SEZ licence covers Patan.
Regulator
Gujarat Electricity Regulatory Commission (GERC)
GERC's rooftop regulations decide what UGVCL may sanction and how exports are credited.
Solar resource
About 5.5 peak sun hours
Patan sits on the dry plain between the Saraswati and the Little Rann, with long clear spells outside the monsoon.
Generation
4 to 4.5 units per kW daily
Average across the year. Clear February to May days run above it, a dusty unwashed array runs below it.
Central subsidy
Up to ₹78,000
PM Surya Ghar, for residential connections. Farm pump connections and businesses are outside it.
Typical payback
4–5 years on a 5 kW home system
3.5–4.5 years on 2 kW and 3 kW homes that use most of their own generation.

The short answer

A 3 kW rooftop system in Patan costs roughly ₹1,80,000 to ₹2,25,000 installed, and a 5 kW system ₹2,85,000 to ₹3,45,000. PM Surya Ghar then returns up to ₹78,000 to a residential owner. Expect 4 to 4.5 units per kW each day. Net metering is handled by UGVCL's Patan Division, and a 5 kW home system pays back in 4–5 years.

These figures are indicative market ranges for Patan in 2026 and are not a Heaven Green Energy quotation. Your own price depends on the roof (old load-bearing terrace, RCC slab, sheet shed or farmhouse roof), structure height, cable run, the hardware chosen and any civil repair. Subsidy figures are the central PM Surya Ghar slabs from pmsuryaghar.gov.in and apply to residential connections only. Rooftop solar systems attract 5% GST on the equipment since 22 Sep 2025. A supply-and-install contract taxes 30% of the value as installation service at 18%, so the blended rate on a typical quote is about 8.9%.

Read the subsidy column carefully: it flattens at 3 kW. The scheme pays ₹30,000 for each of the first two kilowatts, ₹18,000 for the third, and nothing after that. Net of the full claim, a 3 kW Patan system lands somewhere between ₹1,02,000 and ₹1,47,000. Any capacity above 3 kW comes entirely out of your pocket, so it has to be justified by consumption, not by the claim.

Old-city roofs change the price more than people expect. A house in the pols behind the city gates often has a terrace shared with a neighbour's wall, a narrow staircase and no space for a crane. Material goes up by hand, and the structure has to be fixed to a slab whose age nobody can confirm. We check slab condition and parapet height before quoting, because a price that ignores the access problem will be revised later.

Bungalow societies on the newer edge of town are the easy case: clear RCC slabs, room for a raised structure and a short cable run to the meter. Most of the spread in the table comes from the gap between those two roof types, not from the panels.

Why there is no rupee saving in that table

This page does not print a rupee saving. What you save depends on your UGVCL tariff category, sanctioned load, fixed charges and how much of your generation you use during daylight rather than export. A Patan household that runs coolers all afternoon saves differently from one that is empty until evening. Bring your last two bills to the survey and we work the figure out from your own meter readings, not from a brochure. Prefer to work it out yourself first? Put your bill into our solar savings calculator. No phone number required.

PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana

₹78,000

Maximum central subsidy for a residential rooftop system.

  • ₹30,000 per kW for the first 2 kW
  • ₹18,000 for the 3rd kW
  • Nothing paid above 3 kW
  • Credited directly to your bank account
  • We file the entire claim for you
How the subsidy works

Five steps, and we run four of them.

PM Surya Ghar refunds up to ₹78,000 to a residential consumer who installs through a vendor registered on the national portal and gets the system commissioned under net metering. It reaches your bank account after commissioning. It is never a discount printed on the invoice.

1

Create your portal account

Register at pmsuryaghar.gov.in with the UGVCL consumer number printed on your bill. Type your name and address exactly as UGVCL records them, because a mismatch with the billing record is the most common reason a Patan file stalls.

2

Submit the rooftop application

Enter the proposed capacity and choose a registered vendor. UGVCL then checks the request against your sanctioned load and the spare capacity on the transformer feeding your street or society.

3

Installation by a registered vendor

Only a portal-listed vendor's work counts towards the claim. We upload module and inverter details, serial numbers and dated site photographs against your application number as the job progresses.

4

Meter, inspection, certificate

UGVCL fits the bidirectional meter and the electrical inspector clears the installation. Only then does the portal generate the commissioning certificate, and no subsidy moves before that document exists.

5

Bank details and transfer

Add your bank account and a cancelled cheque on the portal. The ministry pays you directly. In our experience Gujarat claims usually settle within 30 to 45 days of the commissioning certificate.

If you are a business, this section does not apply

Shops on the bazaar, hospitals, schools, processing units and agricultural pump connections do not get PM Surya Ghar. Businesses claim accelerated depreciation instead, and a farmer wanting a solar pump goes through PM-KUSUM. A farmhouse that holds its own residential connection can still claim PM Surya Ghar for the house itself.

UGVCL (Uttar Gujarat Vij)

Net metering: who you actually file with.

Net metering lets units your roof exports at midday offset units you draw at night. Without the agreement, surplus power leaves your roof and earns you nothing.

Patan is supplied by Uttar Gujarat Vij Company Limited, UGVCL. Inside the company, the town falls under the Patan Division, which reports to the Mehsana Circle. UGVCL's own Mehsana Circle tender papers list Patan City 1, Patan City 2 and Patan Rural among that division's sub-divisions, alongside Chanasma and Harij. Which sub-division holds your connection depends on whether you are inside the city or in a taluka village. The office printed on your bill is the one your file goes to.

One wrinkle is worth knowing if you own property in more than one taluka. Sidhpur, though it is in Patan district, sits under a separate UGVCL division reporting to the Palanpur Circle. A file for a Patan house and one for a Sidhpur shop therefore move through different offices, even though both are UGVCL.

No Torrent Power or SEZ licence reaches Patan. DGVCL, MGVCL and PGVCL serve south, central and Saurashtra Gujarat. A Patan quotation that names any of them was drafted for another town. The rules themselves come from GERC: capacity is capped at your sanctioned load, and residential, commercial, industrial and agricultural consumers may all apply. Exported units are netted against imports in each billing cycle, with leftover credit settled under the GERC order in force on your commissioning date.

1

Online application

We submit the application with your consumer number, load details and proposed capacity. We then follow it with the Patan Division sub-division named on your bill, whether that is a city sub-division or Patan Rural.

Commissioning papers

Once the system is up we lodge the test report: serial numbers, earthing readings and the single-line diagram. Getting this file right first time is what keeps your meter date from drifting.

New meter and inspection

UGVCL fits and seals the bidirectional meter, and the electrical inspector visits separately. Our engineer attends both visits, so a query on earthing or isolation is answered there rather than a week later.

Solar for Patan's businesses.

Patan's businesses mostly work daylight hours: agro-processing, clinics, colleges, shops and the patola looms. That is the load pattern a rooftop array covers best.

The town is the trading point for a dry-farming taluka. The Patan market yard handles cumin, castor, mustard, fennel, ajwain, wheat and bajra, and the GIDC estate off Station Road holds agro-processing units, including isabgul (psyllium) cleaners. Cleaning lines, graders, elevators and cold rooms run through the working day, so a shed roof full of panels feeds machines on site rather than exporting to the grid.

Size against twelve months, not the busy season. Cumin and isabgul arrivals come after the winter harvest, and a unit that runs hard from February to May can sit lightly loaded through the monsoon. A plant sized to peak-season demand exports a large share of its output in the quiet months. We read a full year of bills before proposing a shed system.

The other daytime loads are institutional. Patan is the seat of Hemchandracharya North Gujarat University, and the colleges, hospitals and nursing homes that come with a district headquarters run lights, lifts and air-conditioning through office hours. Hotels and guest houses that serve Rani ki Vav visitors carry a steady cooling load too.

None of these connections qualifies for PM Surya Ghar. Read accelerated depreciation on solar for the tax route, and zero down payment solar if you would rather keep cash for stock in the buying season.

  • Agro-processing and isabgul units in the GIDC estate off Station Road
  • Traders and warehouses around the Patan market yard
  • Colleges and hostels near Hemchandracharya North Gujarat University
  • Hospitals, nursing homes and diagnostic centres in the city
  • Hotels and guest houses serving Rani ki Vav and Sahasralinga Tank visitors

Farmers follow a different route. Gujarat split agricultural feeders from village feeders under the Jyotigram scheme, and a pump on a farm feeder is not a PM Surya Ghar connection. For a solar pump see our PM-KUSUM page and the GEDA guide to KUSUM in Gujarat.

Why us

Why Patan homeowners pick Heaven Green Energy

We have installed since 2017 and passed 10,000 installations in Gujarat. Volume on that scale is why our UGVCL files move, why our material prices stay put and why a warranty claim reaches a company that is still trading.

The right office, first timeUGVCL Patan Division, and the sub-division printed on your bill. We do not lodge a Patan house in the Sidhpur division because both towns share a district.
Hardware we stand behindHeaven Green is an authorised channel partner of Adani for modules and installs only Adani panels. Inverters are Qbits, the group's own brand, so a warranty claim comes back to us.
The whole subsidy filePortal account, application, commissioning upload and bank details are done by us. Most Gujarat claims we file settle within 30 to 45 days of the commissioning certificate.
Old-roof surveys done properlyAn engineer checks the slab, the shared walls and the access route on a pol house before pricing. The number you sign does not grow after the materials arrive.

Where we are based

Heaven Green Energy is headquartered at Mota Varachha, Surat, and that is our only office. We have no branch, shop or local phone number in Patan. We serve Patan and the wider North Gujarat region through our channel partner network and field engineering team. They carry out the surveys, supervise installation and handle UGVCL coordination on the ground. We would rather you knew this before signing than after.

How Patan weather treats a rooftop array

Patan gets strong, dependable sun and a short monsoon, which is why the district already hosts the Gujarat Solar Park at Charanka in Santalpur taluka. The same dry climate brings heat, dust and wind that a home system has to be built for.

Summer heat cuts afternoon output

Module output drops as cell temperature climbs, and Patan's April and May afternoons are hot even by North Gujarat standards. A raised structure with an air gap under the panels keeps cells cooler than flush mounting does. Keep the inverter in shade too: one fixed to a bare west wall will throttle itself just when the array peaks.

Dust from the fields and the Rann side

West of the town the land runs towards the Little Rann of Kutch, and dry-season winds carry fine dust across the taluka. Field dust after the winter harvest adds to it. A film too thin to notice still costs output. Plan a wash every three to four weeks from February until the rains, with soft water if your borewell water is hard.

Pre-monsoon squalls test the anchoring

The monsoon here is short, so cloud costs Patan less generation in a year than it costs south Gujarat. The structural risk comes earlier, in the gusty storms of late May and June. Anchor the structure into the slab with chemical fasteners where the slab allows, and do not trust loose ballast on an old terrace.

Questions

Solar in Patan: every question answered.

17 questions Patan buyers actually search for, including the ones competing pages leave out. Grouped so you can skip to what you need.

Cost & subsidy

What is the solar panel price in Patan in 2026?
Indicative installed ranges before subsidy are ₹1,25,000 to ₹1,55,000 for 2 kW and ₹1,80,000 to ₹2,25,000 for 3 kW. For 5 kW the range is ₹2,85,000 to ₹3,45,000, and for 10 kW ₹5,20,000 to ₹6,30,000. An old-city terrace with hand-carried material usually sits higher in the band than a society bungalow.
How much is the Patan solar subsidy under PM Surya Ghar?
Up to ₹78,000 for a residential connection: ₹30,000 per kW for the first two kilowatts and ₹18,000 for the third. It is a central scheme, so the amount in Patan is the same as anywhere in India, and UGVCL does not pay it.
Does a pol house in the old city cost more to fit?
Often, yes. Narrow lanes, shared walls and steep staircases mean material is carried up by hand, and older slabs may need repair or a different anchoring method. We price that after the survey, so the quote does not rise once the job starts.
Can my isabgul or cumin processing unit get the subsidy?
No. PM Surya Ghar is for residential connections only, so processing units in the GIDC estate or traders near the market yard fall outside it. Businesses usually claim accelerated depreciation on the system instead. Ask your chartered accountant to work it against your tax position.

Net metering & DISCOM

Which UGVCL office handles net metering in Patan?
UGVCL's Patan Division, which reports to the Mehsana Circle. Within it, city connections sit with the Patan City sub-divisions and taluka villages with Patan Rural or another rural sub-division. The sub-division printed on your bill is the one that processes your application.
My shop is in Sidhpur and my house is in Patan. Is it the same office?
No. Both are UGVCL, but Sidhpur falls under a separate Sidhpur Division that reports to the Palanpur Circle, while Patan sits under the Patan Division in the Mehsana Circle. Each connection needs its own application, filed with its own sub-division.
Is Patan under Torrent Power anywhere?
No. Torrent Power holds distribution licences for Ahmedabad, Gandhinagar and Surat cities, not Patan. Every Patan connection, city or village, is UGVCL. A quotation naming Torrent, DGVCL, MGVCL or PGVCL has been reused from another town's paperwork.
How long does UGVCL net metering take in Patan?
Allow three to seven weeks from installation to a sealed bidirectional meter. That covers feasibility, the test report with serial numbers and single-line diagram, the meter visit and the inspector's clearance. Correct papers filed with the right sub-division keep you at the short end.

Sizing & performance

How much power will a 5 kW system make in Patan?
Around 600 to 675 units a month on average. Patan gets about 5.5 peak sun hours, which works out to 4 to 4.5 units per kW per day across the year. Spring months beat that figure, December runs below it, and an unwashed array falls short in any month.
What size suits a ₹5,000 monthly UGVCL bill?
A bill between ₹3,500 and ₹6,000 usually points to a 5 kW system, which needs about 500 sq ft of shadow-free roof. Size against units consumed, not rupees, because fixed charges and slabs distort the rupee figure. Two Patan homes paying the same can need different sizes.
My old-city terrace is small. Will 3 kW fit?
A 3 kW system needs about 300 sq ft of shadow-free roof. On pol houses, water tanks, stair cabins and taller neighbouring walls cast long winter shadows, so usable area in December decides capacity. We map shade across the day before confirming the size.
Should a farmhouse near Runi or Sander go solar?
If the farmhouse has its own residential connection, yes, and it can claim PM Surya Ghar like any home. A borewell pump on an agricultural feeder is a separate connection and is outside the scheme. For the pump, look at PM-KUSUM through our KUSUM page instead.

Installation & service

How often should panels be cleaned in Patan?
Every three to four weeks from February until the monsoon. Dry winds from the Little Rann side and field dust after harvest settle quickly on panels around Patan. Use soft water, or filtered water if your borewell supply is hard, to avoid leaving a mineral film.
How long does installation take on site?
Two to four days for a typical home, covering structure, modules, inverter, earthing, protection and the monitoring link. Old-city jobs with hand-carried material can take an extra day. The longer wait is afterwards, for the UGVCL meter and the inspector's visit.
Who services the system after installation?
We do. Systems are monitored remotely and we schedule service visits, which matters in a dusty district. Heaven Green installs Adani panels as an authorised channel partner of Adani, and Qbits inverters, the group's own brand, so warranty claims come back to us.

About Heaven Green

Does Heaven Green Energy have an office in Patan?
No. Our only office is at Mota Varachha in Surat. Patan is served through our channel partner network and field engineering team, who run the surveys, supervise installation and deal with UGVCL locally. We tell you this before you sign, not after.
How long has Heaven Green been installing solar?
Since 2017, with more than 10,000 installations across Gujarat on homes, commercial buildings, industrial sheds and farm connections. That track record is why our discom files move without you chasing them and why the price you sign is the price you pay.
