☀️ DCR Policy Discussions at Intersolar Gandhinagar — What It Could Mean for India’s Solar Market
At the recent Intersolar India, one topic repeatedly surfaced in conversations with developers, EPC companies, and solar professionals:
The potential implications if the Domestic Content Requirement (DCR) becomes mandatory for certain solar deployments.
Across several industry discussions, stakeholders highlighted that they are closely evaluating how this policy direction could influence module sourcing strategies, project economics, and execution timelines.
Some developers even indicated that Commercial & Industrial (C&I) project decisions are being temporarily delayed until greater regulatory clarity emerges.
🔎 Key Industry Factors Currently Being Discussed
1️⃣ Domestic Manufacturing Capacity
India’s ALMM-listed module manufacturing capacity is currently estimated at ~25 GW.
While this is a strong foundation for domestic manufacturing, large-scale availability of next-generation cell technologies such as TOPCon is still expanding.
Because of this gap, several industry professionals believe that meeting the entire market demand exclusively through DCR-compliant modules could be challenging in the short term, unless:
• Domestic cell manufacturing capacity increases
• Technology transitions accelerate
• Policy timelines allow sufficient adjustment
2️⃣ Impact of Recent U.S. Trade Duties
Another development influencing market discussions is the recent preliminary countervailing duty announced by the U.S. Department of Commerce.
Reports suggest duties of approximately 125.87% on solar cells and modules imported from India.
If implemented, such trade measures could impact export strategies of Indian manufacturers, which may indirectly influence:
• Domestic module availability
• Pricing dynamics
• Supply allocation between export and local markets
📊 What the Market Is Expecting
With multiple variables evolving simultaneously, many industry participants believe that policy refinements or implementation timeline adjustments may still emerge, depending on future government notifications.
However, solar projects scheduled in the near-term execution window will still require timely procurement and supply planning.
For developers and EPC companies planning ground-mounted or C&I solar projects between March and May, proactive module procurement may help mitigate potential supply uncertainties.
📦 Current Module Availability
To support upcoming project pipelines, we currently have ready stock of high-efficiency modules available:
🔹 Waaree M10 – 590 / 580 Wp
• 144 Half-Cut Cells
• High efficiency module configuration
🔹 Waaree G12 – 700 Wp
• 132 Half-Cut Cells
• Suitable for utility-scale and large ground-mounted installations
⚡ If you are planning upcoming solar installations and would like to secure module supply in advance, feel free to connect and share your project requirements.
