ALMM Update: Solar Module Capacity Surpasses 204 GW in July 2026
MNRE has updated the ALMM List-I, adding 10,494 MW of solar module capacity in July 2026, taking the total enlisted capacity to 204,383 MW. Havells India, Solarium Green Energy, SSSV Textile Industries, ISH Solar, Powersphere Renewable and NRG SOL Power are the new entrants. Cosmic PV Power and Icon Solar have added capacities from new plants.

The Ministry of New and Renewable Energy (MNRE) has updated the Approved List of Models and Manufacturers (ALMM) by adding 10,494 MW of solar module capacity in List-I in July 2026. With this, the cumulative module manufacturing capacity, enlisted in ALMM, reaches 204,383 MW.
Six new entrants have added a cumulative 5,212 MW of capacity. Havells India (1,221 MW), Solarium Green Energy (1,230 MW), SSSV Textile Industries (1,232 MW), ISH Solar (816 MW), Powersphere Renewable (654 MW) and NRG SOL Power(59 MW) are the new entrants in ALMM List-I.
Among the existing players, Cosmic PV Power and Icon Solar-En Power Technologies (Icon Solar) have added capacities from their new manufacturing plants in Gujarat. Cosmic PV Power has added 1,848 MW, taking its total enlisted capacity to 3,150 MW. Icon Solar has added 2,557 MW of capacity, taking its total capacity to 3,131 MW.
Other existing players that have increased capacities include Eastman Green Technologies (392 MW), Sri Savitr Solar (204 MW), Ganesh Green Bharat (188 MW), Solarmint Energies (formerly Sun N Sand Exim (India)) (111 MW), Jakson Engineers (43 MW) and Green Brilliance Renewable Energy (12 MW). However, post-updation of models, the enlisted capacity of Mundra Solar Energy (Adani Solar) has decreased slightly by 73 MW.
The list was last updated on May 1, 2026, when MNRE added 20,745 MW of solar module capacity, taking the total capacity listed under ALMM List-I to 193,889 MW.
Introduced in 2021, the ALMM serves as a critical quality control measure, ensuring that only approved solar module manufacturers are eligible for government projects, subsidies, and tenders. The list is regularly updated to reflect the status of compliant manufacturers.
Solar cells have also come under the ambit of ALMM from June 1, 2026, onwards. On July 31, 2025, MNRE released the first edition of its ALMM List-II for solar PV cells. Subsequently, the list has been revised seven times, with the total enlisted capacity reaching 30,508 MW.
In March 2026, MNRE expanded its ALMM framework to include ingots and wafers under a new List-III, mandating their use from June 1, 2028. The first list will be published when at least three independent wafer manufacturers with a combined 15 GW capacity are enlisted, and the cut-off date will be 7 days post the initial list issuance.
