Saur Krushi Pump Yojana Maharashtra (2026): Online Form, Beneficiary Share & A1 Status
Under Maharashtra’s Magel Tyala Solar Pump and Saur Krushi Pump schemes, farmers get up to 90% to 95% subsidy on DC solar agricultural water pumps. Here is the definitive guide to application criteria, beneficiary share payments, and tracking A1 status on the MahaVitaran portal.
The Solar Irrigation Revolution in Maharashtra
For farmers in Maharashtra, erratic agricultural power supply during night hours and high diesel pumping costs have made solar agriculture pumps the single most impactful farm asset. Under the Magel Tyala Saur Krushi Pump Scheme (integrated with PM-KUSUM Component B), the Government of Maharashtra and the Central Government provide 90% to 95% capital subsidy on DC solar water pumps.
A farmer pays only 5% (for SC/ST categories) or 10% (for Open/OBC categories) of the total benchmark system cost.

4 Critical Secrets Why MahaVitaran Solar Applications Get Rejected
Secret 1: The "Conventional Connection Conflict" If your farmland already has an active, electrified agricultural grid connection registered under your name on that 7/12 extract, your solar pump application will be rejected. The scheme is strictly prioritized for: - Farmers on the **conventional waiting list (paid pending applications)**. - Un-electrified agricultural land parcels located in remote or forest-fringe feeder areas.
Secret 2: 7/12 Extract Water Source Note (Paani Nondi) Your land 7/12 (Saat Bara) extract **must have a recorded permanent water source** (Well / Vihir, Borewell, Farm Pond / Shet Tale, or River lift permission). If water source is not registered in column 12 of the 7/12, submit a Joint Water Sharing Agreement on a ₹100 stamp paper if sharing a well with brothers/relatives.
Secret 3: The 30-Day Payment Window Once your application passes physical site survey (done by the agency surveyor using GPS coordinates), MahaVitaran sends an SMS with the **Demand Note (Challan)**. You have **strictly 30 days** to pay your 5%–10% farmer share via the official portal online gateway. If you miss the payment window, your application is cancelled and transferred back to the waiting list.
