Hey guys, I’ve been hearing a lot about the PM Surya Ghar: Muft Bijli Yojana, and I’m planning to apply for it soon. But I’m a bit confused about the last date to apply online. Some websites say it’s March 31, 2024, others mention something about October 2024, and a few are saying it’ll run until 2026-27. So I’m not sure which one is actually correct.
Can someone who has applied recently or has the latest info please confirm what the actual deadline is? Also, is the last date the same for all states or does it vary depending on the location or phase? Would really appreciate any clarity on this before I miss the chance to apply. Thanks in advance!

Hey, I recently applied for the PM Surya Ghar: Muft Bijli Yojana, so here’s what I found out after a lot of digging.
As of now, there is no fixed last date mentioned officially for applying online under this scheme. While some portals had initially mentioned March 31, 2024, that was likely an early deadline or internal target. The scheme was launched on February 13, 2024, and is supposed to be implemented until 2026-27, so applications are expected to remain open in a phased manner, especially as funds and targets are allocated gradually across different states.
The safest bet is to apply as soon as possible through the official portal https://pmsuryaghar.gov.in, since deadlines might vary based on your state, DISCOM capacity, or subsidy availability. Also, the application process is simple — just register with your electricity consumer number and mobile, and complete the form with required documents.
I’d recommend not waiting until an official cut-off is declared. These kinds of schemes tend to close applications once targets are met. Hope this helps! Let me know if you need help with the registration steps too.
