Getting a solar loan in Chandigarh
For a solar loan in Chandigarh, check whether Chandigarh runs any subsidy or incentive scheme for the equipment you are financing, in addition to central schemes, and whether the installer is empanelled with the relevant agency, since subsidies are often paid only for approved vendors. Several public sector banks and NBFCs offer dedicated green-finance products; compare their APR with a regular personal loan.
