Verde Solaire vs Tata Power Solar

Verde Solaire and Tata Power Solar are two different kinds of solar company. Tata Power Solar manufactures modules and cells and sells rooftop systems across India through channel partners; Verde Solaire is a Delhi NCR engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) firm that buys modules from several makers, surveys the roof itself and does the installation, subsidy filing and net metering with its own team. Verde Solaire is ISO 9001:2015 certified, has delivered more than 50 MW of solar projects and is a registered PM Surya Ghar vendor in both Delhi and Uttar Pradesh. Tata Power Solar's own pages claim 1,900 MW of rooftop installations and over 20,000 residential customers.

The comparison below uses each company's published information and records when it was checked. It focuses on the things that help you shortlist an installer: capability, local service, equipment, process and written terms.

Side by side

What Tata Power Solar says about itself

We read five pages on tatapowersolar.com on 18 September 2026. The rooftops page describes the company as "pioneers in India's rooftop domain for more than 30 years, having commissioned our first solar installation in 1991", claims "1900 MW++" of cumulative rooftop installations, "350+ sales & service channels partners across India" and "24X7 Remote monitoring for performance analysis & real-time service support". It cites Bridge to India for the title "India's No. 1 Solar Rooftop EPC player" eight years running and promises "Upto 40% Cheaper Electricity".

The residential page lists a grid-tie inverter range from 1 kVA to 10 kVA and two off-grid power conditioning units, states "20,000+ residential systems commissioned", and offers "24X7 service support, for complete peace of mind". The manufacturing page gives "670MW for modules and 530MW of cells", mono cells of 182 mm, "over 3GW of modules shipped globally in the past 33 years" and a list of ISO and IEC certifications. The dealer page says products are "available through an extensive network of 1000+ channel partners present across India and its neighbouring countries". The residential financing page promises "Collateral Free Options", "Low Down Payment" and "Instant EMI options".

On history, scale, manufacturing and monitoring, Tata Power Solar is ahead of every local installer in Delhi NCR, and Verde Solaire's record of more than 50 MW of solar projects is small beside it.

What the five pages leave out is equally useful to a buyer. None of them gives a residential price, a warranty in years, an installation timeline, a PM Surya Ghar: Muft Bijli Yojana registration, or a statement of whether the channel partner or Tata Power Solar itself installs and services a home. Those are the questions to put to a partner in writing before an advance.

What Verde Solaire has published

Verde Solaire, formerly Sirius Electric, installs home systems from 1 kW to 50 kW from offices in Noida, New Delhi and Varanasi. It is registered with IOCL, UHBVN, DHBVN, CEL, IPGCL, BRPL and CREST for solar power plant installations and offers subsidy assistance for eligible customers in Delhi, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh. Its price list is public: a 3 kW system is ₹1,99,000 to ₹2,10,000 before subsidy on the July 2025 list, netting to ₹43,000 to ₹54,000 in Delhi and ₹91,000 to ₹1,02,000 in Noida once the central and state subsidy are applied. The price posts state 25-year performance warranties on all three panel types. It has tie-ups with SIDBI, SBI and other NBFCs for collateral-free solar loans, is certified by Vikram Solar as a trusted quality EPC integrator and an authorised solar solutions partner of Luminous, and every enquiry starts with a free site evaluation and no-obligation proposal.

Verde Solaire has not published a remote monitoring service, has no manufacturing, and its inverter and workmanship warranty years appear on the written quote rather than on a web page. That is the honest limit of what this side of the comparison can claim.

Manufacturer-plus-EPC or local EPC: what changes for you

Which modules go on your roof. A manufacturer's channel sells that manufacturer's modules; with Tata Power Solar you get Tata modules and, on the residential page, Tata inverters. A local EPC picks from several makers per roof. Verde Solaire's published installations have used Adani, Vikram Solar, Waaree, Emmvee and CEL modules with Delta, Schneider, KSolare and Havells inverters. A Greater Kailash customer, Jai Kumar Manghnani, wrote: "We had agreed for 530W Mono Perc Adani solar panels for my solar energy system, but they installed a better bifacial solar panel of Adani without charging anything extra from us." The subsidy rule is the same for both: both the modules and the cells must be made in India, and from 1 June 2026 the cells must be on ALMM List-II. Ask either company for module and cell model numbers in the quote.

Who you contract with. Through a dealer network the partner is usually the company on the contract, and Tata Power Solar's pages do not describe how installation and after-sales are divided. With a local EPC the company that measures the roof is the company that installs, files the portal application and follows the electricity board. Brij Lal Bhardwaj in Sector 25, Noida wrote that the team "did the complete installation including documentations and liasoning for installation of net meter"; L. R. Singh, also in Noida, "was also able to get solar subsidy in record time because of the follow up of the team of Verde Solaire".

Customisation. Awkward roofs, elevated structures and shadow from a water tank are decided by an engineer standing on the roof. K. K. Sharma in Chattarpur wrote, "I was highly impressed with their shadow analysis process." A national brand's partner may do the same; the brand's pages do not say.

Reach and monitoring. Here the manufacturer wins outright. Tata Power Solar publishes a pan-India dealer network, 24x7 remote monitoring and doorstep service. Verde Solaire serves Delhi NCR and eastern Uttar Pradesh and has published no monitoring service of its own; what you get is the inverter maker's app and a phone number that customers describe as responsive, in Sohail Dhir's words "very prompt in responding to queries if any".

Tata Power-DDL is not Tata Power Solar

Homeowners in North and North-West Delhi often assume their electricity board and the panel brand are one company. Tata Power-DDL is a distribution licensee (DISCOM): it supplies power, sanctions your load and publishes the net-metering application and manual on tatapower-ddl.com. Tata Power Solar is the manufacturer and EPC business. Being a Tata Power-DDL consumer does not tie you to Tata Power Solar, because under the scheme the installer must be a vendor registered on the national portal, and you choose the vendor on pmsuryaghar.gov.in. The Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission (DERC) timeline of 10 days for a net-metering connection up to 10 kW applies to every Delhi board and every installer. The Tata Power-DDL net-metering page walks through the application.

The rules that do not change with the brand

The central subsidy is capped at ₹78,000 for 3 kW and above whoever installs. Delhi adds a state subsidy capped at ₹78,000 (3 kW) and Uttar Pradesh ₹30,000 per consumer, on top of the central subsidy. Both companies' systems must clear the same made-in-India and ALMM List-II tests to qualify, and the net meter is issued by your DISCOM on the DISCOM's clock. Navin Verma in Janakpuri described a 10 kW installation on Vikram modules and KSolare inverters as quick and well made, and added that the net metering was held up at the electricity board's end. That delay would have been the same with any installer. The subsidy guide and who pays whom explain the money flow.

Which one fits you

Choose Tata Power Solar, or one of its partners, if a manufacturer's name on the panel, a pan-India network and a published 24x7 monitoring service matter most, and you are comfortable that the price, warranty years and installer identity come from the partner rather than the website.

Choose Verde Solaire if you want a choice of module brands, a price you can read before the phone call, and one company answerable for the survey, the installation, the subsidy claim and the net meter. The Delhi and Noida price pages carry every capacity, and the national brand or local installer page turns this comparison into a checklist for any company you shortlist.
