In a move that underscores its customer-first philosophy and leadership in India’s energy sector, Luminous Power Technologies, India’s leading energy solutions company, has announced that it will pass on the entire benefit of the recent GST rate reductions to customers across its solar and power backup product range, effective September 22, 2025.
The announcement follows the policy reforms introduced at the 56th GST Council Meeting, chaired by Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on September 3, 2025, which reduced GST rates on solar solutions from 12% to 5% and on power backup systems from 28% to 18%.
Signaling of how the renewable energy industry can align with national priorities while empowering everyday consumers, Preeti Bajaj, CEO & MD, Luminous Power Technologies, said:
“The GST reduction is a landmark step towards accelerating India’s clean energy journey. At Luminous, we are proud to pass on the full benefit of this reform to our customers, making solar and power backup solutions more affordable and accessible. Our mission is to empower every household and business with reliable, sustainable energy solutions that fuel progress and light up lives.”
India has set an ambitious target of achieving 500 GW of renewable energy capacity by 2030. However, high upfront costs have often slowed the adoption of solar and backup solutions. By passing on the GST benefit in full, Luminous ensures that this landmark reform translates into real, immediate affordability for consumers. The company’s proactive step is expected to accelerate the uptake of rooftop solar systems and power backup products, particularly in semi-urban and rural regions, where energy reliability is critical to growth and livelihoods.
For over three decades, Luminous has been a trusted household name, serving more than 100 million customers across India. Its consistent focus on innovation, customer trust, and alignment with national priorities has positioned it as a leading force in India’s transition to clean energy. By choosing to pass on the entire GST reduction, Luminous sets a new benchmark for industry responsibility and transparency, strengthening its leadership in the renewable and backup power sector.
The revised prices across solar panels, hybrid inverters, and power backup solutions will be applicable starting September 22, 2025, through all authorized distributors and retail partners of Luminous Power Technologies.
With this decision, Luminous is not only making sustainable energy more affordable but is also reinforcing its role as a key enabler in lighting up India’s clean energy future.
