Solar was not an energy source being actively considered by Indians when Adarsh Das and Kushagra Nandan set up SunSource Energy with their own seed money after returning from the US in 2010. So, for them, the biggest challenge was to educate their clients, and then handhold them by getting financiers for their captive rooftop solar plants. And the result was a whopping 5X jump in their annual revenue.
