A state ranking is only credible when the raw observations, definitions, dates, missing values, and calculation method are published. This page does not publish readiness scores, state rankings, installation counts or turnaround figures, because no auditable dataset supports them.
Compare separate indicators
| Indicator | Preferred source | Required context |
|---|---|---|
| Installed capacity | MNRE or other official publication | Technology, grid connection, unit and observation date |
| Scheme terms | Current national portal, ministry, state agency or DISCOM | Consumer type, capacity, jurisdiction and effective date |
| Net-metering rules | Current state regulation and DISCOM procedure | Project size, connection type and amendment date |
| Tariff | Current tariff order and consumer category | Fixed and energy charges, slabs and taxes |
| Processing | Auditable portal or DISCOM records | Sample, median or percentile, period and exclusions |
| Installer or vendor availability | Current official directory where one exists | Status date, scope and verification method |
| Grid capacity | Utility planning or hosting-capacity evidence | Feeder, voltage level, method and coverage |
Do not combine missing or incomparable indicators into a precise score. Leave a missing indicator out until a dated official source is available.
Avoid state-wide generalisations
India’s implementation can vary by DISCOM and consumer category. A rule or processing experience in one service area should not be applied to another without checking the current controlling document. Scheme and tariff claims are time sensitive and need review close to publication.
Qbits use of state data
This page does not claim access to a proprietary Qbits installation dataset. Any future first-party index should publish its anonymised observations, sampling limitations, scoring formula, source dates, missing-data treatment, and calculation file. Until then, Qbits should use official indicators separately for planning and should not market a composite score as measured research.
