How industrial enterprises, cold storage units, and manufacturing sheds across Patna, Dankuni, and Howrah utilize commercial rooftop solar and 40% accelerated depreciation.

Industrial and commercial operations in Eastern India face steep grid electricity tariffs ranging from ₹8.00 to ₹10.50 per kWh. By transitioning metal shed roofs and RCC terraces into captive solar generation plants, factories and cold chain storages achieve dramatic operating expenditure reductions.

The Financial Equation: 40% Accelerated Depreciation

Commercial enterprises in India investing in solar energy systems can claim 40% Accelerated Depreciation (AD) under Section 32 of the Income Tax Act in the first year of installation. This substantially reduces corporate income tax liability, cutting effective capital payback to less than 3 years.
