It is engaged in manufacturing and sale of Solar photovoltaic modules / systems. Their manufacturing plants are located at Falta Special Economic Zone (SEZ), in West Bengal. The products and services cater to multiple business divisions, such as domestic solar PV module sales; EPC and O&M services which serve as value added services to business in manufacturing solar PV modules; and exports. The Solar PV systems are currently manufactured using both polycrystalline and monocrystalline cell technology. The portfolio in solar energy products consists of solar modules like: (i) polycrystalline modules; and (ii) monocrystalline passivated emitter and rear cell (Mono PERC) modules, which includes bifacial (glass-to-glass and glass-to-back sheet modules). These products are differentiated on the basis of solar technology and type as well as cell size. In particular, PV modules have wattages between 330Wp and 660Wp, a prototype which is a measure of the amount of sunlight (irradiation) that falls on the surface of a solar panel and converted into electricity ranging between 17.01% and 21.47%. In 2009, the Company started their manufacturing operations with an annual rated production capacity of 12 MW. It supplied, installed and commissioned their first Phase of 500 KW Solar Power Plant at Kottenheim, Germany. The 3 MW grid connected solar power plant was installed under the National Solar Mission of India during the year 2011-12. In 2014, it commissioned a floating solar PV plant of 10kW in India.
