Tata Power Solar Systems Ltd. (TPSSL) on Friday said it has partnered with the Bank of India (BOI) to facilitate easy financing for rooftop solar installations and setting up electric vehicle (EV) charging stations. This partnership marks a significant milestone as Tata Power Solar becomes the first solar company to collaborate with BOI for both solar and EV charging station financing, cementing its leadership as a green energy solutions provider, a statement said.

These loans are offered at an attractive interest rate of 7.10 percent per annum, are without any collateral, and have a tenure of up to 10 years. For installations above 3 kW and up to 10 kW, a loan of up to Rs 6 lakh can be availed with a margin money requirement of 5 percent.
