Crompton Greaves Consumer Electricals Ltd., one of India’s leading consumer electrical companies, has achieved a significant milestone by securing its first major solar rooftop order in Telangana, valued at ₹52 crore. This strategic move highlights Crompton’s commitment to expanding its presence in sustainable energy solutions, leveraging its trusted brand and extensive distribution network to scale effectively. The company is well-positioned to tap into India’s rapidly growing solar rooftops market, estimated at ₹20,000–₹25,000 crore and expected to grow at over 20% annually.
This major order marks Crompton’s commercial debut in the large solar rooftop segment and establishes the company as a credible player in India’s solar energy market. The entry into solar rooftops is part of Crompton’s broader strategy to expand its total addressable market from ₹75,000–1 lakh crore to ₹2 lakh crore. Combined with its solar pumps business, the solar rooftops segment represents a significant opportunity of ₹40,000–50,000 crore, which Crompton aims to capture through its strong brand reputation and widespread distribution network. The company has already built substantial momentum, with large orders and a robust pipeline in the solar pumps segment.
Commenting on this milestone, Mr. Promeet Ghosh, Managing Director and CEO of Crompton Greaves Consumer Electricals Ltd., said, “The renewable energy sector, particularly solar rooftops, presents a transformative opportunity for India’s energy landscape. Crompton’s entry into this segment reflects our commitment to sustainability. Our vision is not only to deliver high-performance, innovative products, but also to become a major contributor to India’s green energy transition, driving both fast growth for Crompton and a sustainable future for the nation.”
He further added, “Securing our first major solar rooftop order is a significant milestone for the category. This validates our capabilities and sets the stage for rapid growth in a sector that is witnessing tremendous demand. Leveraging our brand strength and distribution reach, we are well-positioned to create meaningful impact and deliver value to our consumers and the broader ecosystem. The potential for this ₹20,000–₹25,000 crore category is immense, and we are committed to driving innovation and excellence as we expand our footprint.”
Crompton’s successful entry into the solar rooftop segment represents more than just an addition to its product portfolio. It signifies a strategic shift toward becoming a comprehensive partner in energy efficiency and sustainability. By actively harnessing India’s solar energy potential, the company reinforces its commitment to Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) initiatives and strengthens its position as a forward-looking consumer electrical leader, ready to capitalize on the growing demand for clean and sustainable energy solutions in the country.
