## ANSWER

## THE MINISTER OF  STATE  FOR NEW & RENEWABLE ENERGY AND POWER

## (SHRI SHRIPAD YESSO NAIK)

- (a)  &  (b)  PM  KUSUM  is a  demand  driven  scheme. The  capacities are allocated  based  on  demand received and progress shown by the States. The scheme has been implemented in all the states/ UTs.

As reported by State Implementing Agencies (SIAs), State/UT wise installation progress under PM KUSUM, as on 30.11.2025, is placed at Annexure I .

(c) to (e) PM KUSUM scheme initially faced challenges like unavailability of low-cost finance, landrelated bottlenecks, requirement of collateral by banks, delay in concluding tenders, non-availability of timely and adequate state share etc.

To address these issues, the Ministry has taken proactive steps and issued simplified and comprehensive revised  guidelines  in  January  2024.  This  allows  access  to  low-cost  financing  to  farmers,  as  all  the components are included under AIF, and addresses the issues related to land, state share and  other technical challenges.

No proposal is under consideration for revision of subsidy amount under PM-KUSUM Scheme as the sunset date of the scheme is 31.03.2026.

The PM KUSUM guidelines mandate the vendors to provide maintenance services for a period of 5 years from the date of commissioning of the systems. To ensure timely maintenance of the systems the vendors need to set up one authorized service centre in each operational district and a telephone helpline in local language in each operational State.  The guidelines also have provisions of real time monitoring of the installed systems.
