Vikram Solar Wins 400 MW Module Order for Maharashtra Farm Solar Projects

Vikram Solar has secured a 400 MW module supply order for agricultural solar projects in Maharashtra. The deal was reported by Saur Energy on September 29, 2026.

The modules will be used in solar installations tied to farming operations. The order size, 400 MW, is significant for India's rooftop and distributed solar segment, where agricultural applications have been growing.

Maharashtra has pushed solar for agriculture through programs that let farmers run irrigation pumps on solar power and sell surplus electricity back to the grid. The state's agricultural solar push is part of a broader national effort to cut diesel use in farming and add clean capacity.

Vikram Solar, based in Kolkata, makes solar photovoltaic modules and has supplied projects across India. The company has not disclosed the financial value of the order or the timeline for delivery.

Agricultural solar projects often combine solar panels with farming on the same land, or power pumps and processing units. The 400 MW order suggests a sizable rollout of such installations in Maharashtra.

India's solar module manufacturing capacity has expanded in recent years, driven by domestic content requirements and import duties. Vikram Solar is among the larger domestic players.

The order comes as several states ramp up solar for agriculture. Maharashtra has set targets for solar-powered pumps and feeder solarization. The 400 MW module supply fits into that plan.

Details on the specific projects, locations, or commissioning dates were not immediately available. Saur Energy reported the order without naming the developer or the exact sites.

Vikram Solar has not issued a public statement on the order. The company's website lists its module capacity and past projects, but the Maharashtra order was not yet listed at the time of writing.

Agricultural solar is a key part of India's renewable energy mix. It helps farmers cut power costs and provides an additional income stream through land leasing or surplus power sales. The 400 MW order adds to that trend.
