Common portal problems

Login error — “401 / invalid access token”

This almost always means the portal session expired or your browser is holding an old, stale login token. It is a portal-side glitch, not a problem with your account.

  1. Close every open tab of the PM Surya Ghar portal completely.
  2. Clear your browser cache and cookies for the portal — or simply open a fresh Incognito / Private window.
  3. Open the official portal again from a fresh address bar entry, not an old bookmark or a Google cached link.

OTP not arriving on your phone

OTP delays are usually a telecom/SMS-gateway delay, not an account problem.

  1. Wait a full 2–3 minutes before requesting a new OTP — multiple rapid requests can get your number temporarily rate-limited.
  2. Check that your phone has network signal and that SMS isn't blocked by a spam filter or DND app.
  3. Confirm the mobile number on the portal is the one linked to your electricity connection — OTP goes to the registered number.

Your application is stuck or won't submit

A stuck application is usually caused by a missing mandatory field, an unsupported document format, or the portal timing out mid-submission.

  1. Scroll through every section and look for fields marked mandatory that are still empty or showing a red error.
  2. Check document uploads — they usually must be PDF or JPG under a size limit. Re-save oversized files smaller and re-upload.
  3. Make sure your consumer number and DISCOM exactly match your latest electricity bill.

Problem selecting or changing a vendor

Vendor-selection issues on the portal are common — the registered-vendor list can be slow to load or limited in your area.

  1. Refresh the vendor-selection page and give the list time to load fully before choosing.
  2. If your preferred installer isn't listed, they may not yet be registered in your DISCOM area on the portal.
  3. Don't rush vendor selection — choosing a poor installer is harder to undo than a slow page.

Can't see your subsidy status

Subsidy status updates can lag — disbursement happens in stages after installation and inspection, and the portal status reflects that pipeline.

  1. Log in and check the application/subsidy status section — status updates only after each stage (installation, inspection, net-meter) is recorded.
  2. Confirm your bank account details on the portal are correct — subsidy is paid to the registered account.
  3. Subsidy disbursement after a completed installation can take several weeks; a 'pending' status soon after install is normal.

Important — please read

SuryaSelect is not a government portal and does not replace the official PM Surya Ghar portal. Subsidy application, approval, and disbursement are handled only through the official government system. SuryaSelect provides guidance, document readiness, rooftop analysis, vendor connection, and application support.

SuryaSelect never asks for, stores, or uses your PM Surya Ghar portal password or login credentials. We do not log in to the official portal on your behalf or automate any part of it. The official portal is at pmsuryaghar.gov.in and the official helpline is 1800-11-3003 / 1800-11-4455.
