Yes — very much so. Chhattisgarh gets 5.0–5.5 peak sun hours/day (excellent for central India), and CSPDCL charges ₹6.20/unit once you exceed 200 units. A 3 kW plant in Raipur generates ~400 units/month, preventing the costly slab-jump entirely. After ₹78,000 PM Surya Ghar subsidy, break-even is typically 4.5 years with 25-year savings of ₹5 lakh+.
