When the PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana was launched, it carried a bold promise. The goal was to help 10 million Indian households become prosumers through rooftop solar systems by March 2027.  However, over a year into its rollout, the program faces a critical roadblock. A severe shortage of solar modules that meet Domestic Content Requirements (DCR) continues to hinder its progress and threaten the realization of its long-term objectives. The continuing module supply crunch is slowing down rooftop installations, disrupting supply chains, halting vendor operations, and delaying approved projects in several states. Industry insiders describe the problem as systemic, affecting every level of implementation. Without timely corrective measures, the program’s ambitious goals could gradually drift further out of reach.
