Solar Panel Cost Calculator for Indian Homes (2025) – Need Feedback

Hello everyone
I am from India and recently I was exploring solar panel installation costs for residential homes here. The pricing is very dynamic and depends on:
-
System size (1kW, 3kW, 5kW, etc.)
-
Location & local subsidies
-
Type of inverter and battery backup
For example (2025 approx. costs in India):
-
1kW system ≈ ₹65,000 – ₹75,000
-
3kW system ≈ around ₹2,00,000
-
5kW system ≈ ₹3,30,000 – ₹3,80,000
Since these numbers vary a lot, I created a small online calculator tool that helps homeowners:
👉 Solar Panel Cost Calculator in India (2025) – MB Electrical
With this tool, you just enter your average monthly electricity bill, and it gives:
-
Recommended solar system size
-
Estimated installation cost (updated for 2025)
-
Approx. payback period (ROI) I wanted to share this here to get feedback from experts.
-
Does my cost/watt assumption (~₹65 per watt) look realistic for 2025 India?
-
How does this compare with current prices in your country?
Looking forward to your suggestions
