    It is reported that most of the above-mentioned photovoltaic projects are installed by private sector developers. Taking into account the normative cost of INR 450 crore (US$ 568,063) per MW, the installation of 57.7GW of cumulative solar capacity has generated an expenditure of about INR 260 trillion (US$ 32.821 billion).

    Rajasthan leads the pack in terms of PV installations, accounting for 25% of the country’s cumulative PV capacity (14.4GW), followed by Gujarat (7.8GW) and Karnataka (7.6GW).
