Not a great boost for solar power

K_Subramanya- K. Subramanya, CEO, Tata BP Solar

We at Tata BP Solar are quite disappointed with the budget from solar perspective. The budget is pro-imports and anti-domestic, not a great boost to the solar manufacturing sector. As a result, solar manufacturing investments in India will take a backseat, and might even lead to loss of jobs for people in the industry. This also makes further investments in manufacturing almost impossible. It seems that the government has not heard the woes of the industry, or addressed them. We wish that the government takes note of this and takes immediate action to rectify the situation.
