Solar, wind and renewable-manufacturing units — Rajasthan, India's solar capital, treats renewables as a thrust sector under RIPS 2024.
Rajasthan has India's highest solar potential, with large installations across Jaisalmer, Bikaner, Jodhpur and Phalodi, and RIPS 2024 is built to back it. The policy lists Renewable Manufacturing among its manufacturing thrust sectors and Solar Cell Manufacturing among power-intensive sectors, and allows enterprises investing in captive renewable power plants to include a defined share (51%) of that plant in their eligible investment. For a solar, wind or renewable-equipment manufacturing unit, RIPS benefits combine with the thrust-sector booster.
| Benefit | Basis | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Capital subsidy | RIPS 2024, % of EFCI, area-linked | Renewable Manufacturing thrust |
| Interest subvention | Up to 6% p.a. on term loan | plus thrust-sector add-on |
| Thrust-sector booster | Top-up for thrust manufacturing | renewable is a thrust sector |
| Captive renewable plant | 51% of captive RE plant includable | in eligible investment |
| Power-intensive treatment | Solar Cell Mfg recognised | sector-specific provisions |
A solar-equipment / renewable-manufacturing unit is set up with Eligible Fixed Capital Investment of ₹2 crore.
| Benefit head | Basis | Indicative amount |
|---|---|---|
| Capital subsidy | RIPS, % of EFCI, area-linked | slab on ₹2 Cr EFCI |
| Interest subvention | Up to 6% p.a. on term loan | ₹~25–30 lakh (approx) |
| Thrust-sector booster | Top-up on asset-creation incentive | renewable thrust add-on |
| Captive RE plant | 51% includable in investment | raises eligible base |
| Indicative total support | a substantial multi-year package | |
Figures are indicative and for illustration only. Exact eligibility, slab and benefit depend on project category, area category and the scheme in force, and are computed in your free assessment.
A renewable or solar unit registers on Udyam and files its RIPS 2024 application with EFCI documentation, claiming the Renewable Manufacturing thrust-sector classification (or power-intensive treatment for solar-cell manufacturing). Where a captive renewable plant is part of the project, we include the eligible share in the investment base. We prepare the project report, map the area category, and file for capital subsidy, interest subvention and the applicable boosters.

Yes. RIPS 2024 lists Renewable Manufacturing as a manufacturing thrust sector and Solar Cell Manufacturing as a power-intensive sector, so renewable and solar units qualify for enhanced incentives and the thrust-sector booster.
Capital subsidy as a percentage of eligible fixed capital investment, interest subvention up to 6%, and a thrust-sector booster, with sector-specific treatment for solar-cell manufacturing.
Enterprises investing in captive renewable power plants can include a defined share (51%) of the plant in their eligible investment, raising the base on which incentives are computed.
Jaisalmer, Bikaner, Jodhpur and Phalodi have the highest solar potential and the largest installations in the State.
