Qualified Investor Programme  ·  v.2026

Solar infrastructure as an asset class. Engineered for tax-efficient yield.

For sophisticated investors seeking returns beyond traditional fixed deposits and the volatility of equity markets, operational solar assets offer something distinct: contractually backed revenue from off-takers consuming power, structured through SEBI-aligned vehicles, with tax-efficient pass-through under §10(2A) and Year-1 depreciation shield under §32. Twenty-five-year revenue visibility. Real, physical assets. Quarterly distributions. Available to qualified investors at minimum participation of ₹25 lakh.

Vehicle structure

Four components. Each one well-established, each one independently audited.

01 · SPV

SPV + LLP, two-tier

A Special Purpose Vehicle is incorporated to own a single solar asset. Investors hold equity in the SPV through an LLP — the structure permitted by the Income Tax Act for pass-through profit distribution.

Incorporated underCompanies Act, 2013 · LLP Act, 2008
02 · Long-term

Long-term contracted PPAs

The SPV signs Power Purchase Agreements with creditworthy off-takers — industrial captive consumers, commercial open-access buyers, and residential societies via VNM frameworks.

PPA tenure15–25 years · contracted tariff
03 · Quarterly

Quarterly profit distribution

Revenue collected by the SPV flows to the LLP as profit, then to investors as profit distribution — tax-free in your hands under Section 10(2A) of the Income Tax Act.

CadenceQuarterly · post-OPEX, post-audit
04 · Annual

Annual audit, CA-validated

Financial statements audited annually by an independent firm. Generation data captured directly from inverters and reconciled monthly. Investor dashboard for live verification.

Audit firmTier-1 Indian CA · ROC-filed

Illustrative figures expressed as percentages of a representative capital base for structural explanation only. Actual returns, tax treatment, and depreciation eligibility depend on the investor's tax position, the entity through which participation is structured, and applicable rates in the financial year of investment. All claims are validated by the SPV's CA and the investor's CA prior to commitment. The investor deck contains the full numerical treatment by tranche.

Tax architecture

Two sections of the Income Tax Act do most of the work.

The structure isn't novel. It uses two well-established provisions in combination — one for ongoing distribution, one for the underlying capital deployment.

Section 10(2A) · Income Tax Act, 1961

LLP profit distribution, tax-free in the investor's hands.

Profits earned by an LLP are taxed at the LLP level. When those post-tax profits are distributed to partners, the distribution is exempt under Section 10(2A). The amount you receive each quarter does not attract further income tax in your individual return.

— tax at LLP level24.6
Net profit distributed to partner57.4
Further tax in investor's hands · §10(2A)— 0.0
Section 32 · Accelerated Depreciation

Year-1 depreciation shield on the underlying asset.

Solar generating equipment qualifies for 40% Accelerated Depreciation under Section 32 in Year 1. For investors structuring participation through eligible business entities, this depreciation shields the underlying capital deployment in the first year — a Year-1 economic effect captured at the SPV level and reflected in returns.

Revenue visibility

Twenty-five years of contracted revenue. Audited, not projected.

The PPA is the contract. The tariff is fixed (or escalator-bound). The off-taker is creditworthy. Generation is captured directly from inverters and reconciled monthly. The revenue stream is visible — and verifiable — for the full asset life.
