📢 Latest Update — June 2026:
The Magel Tyala Saur Krishi Pump Yojana (also known as Mukhyamantri Saur Krushi Vahini Yojana 2.0) continues to accept applications from Maharashtra farmers who want a solar-powered agricultural pump instead of waiting endlessly for a conventional electricity connection. Under the scheme a farmer pays only 10% of the pump cost (5% for SC/ST farmers) and the government covers the rest, with zero electricity bill afterwards and a 5-year repair guarantee. If you have already applied, log in to the MSEDCL renewable energy portal to track your application and confirm your 7/12 land details are correct, since most delays are caused by mismatched land records. New applicants can register online. Always confirm the current contribution amounts and pump availability on the official portal before relying on them.
⚡ Key Facts at a Glance
What is the Magel Tyala Saur Krishi Pump Yojana?
The Magel Tyala Saur Krishi Pump Yojana — literally "a solar pump for whoever asks for it" — is one of Maharashtra's most practical schemes for farmers who struggle to irrigate their fields because of weak, delayed or load-shedding-prone electricity connections. It is also referred to as the Mukhyamantri Saur Krushi Vahini Yojana 2.0. Under the scheme an eligible farmer receives a 3 HP, 5 HP or 7.5 HP solar agricultural pump and pays only 10% of the total cost (just 5% for SC/ST farmers), while the government subsidises the remaining 90% (or 95%). You can read the full state-page summary on our Magel Tyala Saur Krishi Pump Yojana scheme page.
The real value of the scheme is not just the upfront subsidy. Because the pump runs on solar power, the farmer pays no electricity bill for irrigation and is no longer at the mercy of evening or night-time load shedding — the pump works during daylight hours when the sun is strongest, which is exactly when irrigation is convenient. Each pump also carries a 5-year repair guarantee, so maintenance is covered during the early years.
For example, suppose Bhausaheb, a small farmer in Beed district, owns about two acres and has been on the waiting list for a regular agricultural power connection for years. Through this scheme he could apply for a 3 HP solar pump, pay only his 10% share online, and have an MSEDCL-empanelled vendor install the pump on his land — after which his irrigation runs free of electricity charges. (This is a hypothetical illustration; your actual pump size, cost share and timeline depend on official verification.)
Who is Eligible — Complete Criteria 2026
- ✅ Farmers of Maharashtra who own their own agricultural land
- ✅ Farmers who do not yet have an irrigation electricity connection or are on the connection waiting list
- ✅ A reliable water source (well, borewell, pond or similar) on or near the field for the pump to draw from
- ✅ General-category farmers — pay only 10% of the cost
- ✅ SC/ST farmers — pay only 5% of the cost (caste certificate required)
- ❌ Land that does not belong to the applicant or is not reflected in the 7/12 extract
Which Pump Size is Right for You?
The pump capacity sanctioned depends on the size of your landholding, so it helps to know which slab you fall into before you apply:
- ✅ 3 HP pump — suitable for up to about 2.5 acres of land
- ✅ 5 HP pump — suitable for roughly 2.5 to 5 acres
- ✅ 7.5 HP pump — suitable for above 5 acres

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How much does the farmer actually have to pay?
A general-category farmer pays only 10% of the total pump cost, and an SC/ST farmer pays only 5%. The government subsidises the remaining 90% or 95%. Your share is paid online through the official portal during the application.
Q: Will I get an electricity bill for the solar pump?
No. The pump runs on solar power, so there is no electricity bill for irrigation. It also works during daylight hours, so load shedding does not stop your irrigation.
Q: Which pump size will I get?
The capacity depends on your landholding: roughly a 3 HP pump for up to 2.5 acres, a 5 HP pump for about 2.5 to 5 acres, and a 7.5 HP pump for above 5 acres. The final size is confirmed after your land details are verified.
Q: Who installs the pump?
After your application is approved and your contribution is paid, an MSEDCL-empanelled vendor installs the solar pump on your field. You do not have to arrange installation yourself.
Q: What documents do I need to keep ready?
Keep your 7/12 extract, Aadhaar, bank passbook and registered mobile number ready. SC/ST applicants should also keep a valid caste certificate to claim the reduced 5% contribution.
Q: Is there a repair guarantee?
Yes. The solar pump comes with a 5-year repair guarantee, which covers maintenance during the early years of use. Keep your installation and approval records safe to claim it.
Q: My 7/12 details do not match — what should I do?
Get the 7/12 extract corrected at your talathi or tahsil office before applying, so the name, survey number and area match what you enter online. A mismatch in land records is the most common reason applications get held up.
Q: Where can I get help if my application is stuck?
