印度太阳能发电开发协会(PDA)发出呼吁，要求完全取消太阳能设备的25%安全保障关税，表示如果被强征，将危及27吉瓦的太阳能项目，涉及150亿美元的投资额。
SPDA在给印度商务部长，后者也是安全保障常务委员会委员长的一封信中表示，如果这一关税计划一旦实施，“整个太阳能任务将失去其目标，将危及数以千计的工作岗位，及许多为这一行业提供货物和服务、相互依赖生存的中小企业，并最终将这些项目转化为不良贷款。”
今年一月，安全保障总局(DGS)建议征收70%的安全保障税，而最近贸易救济总署(DGTR)将这一税率降低为两年期的25%从价税。
到目前为止，这一安全保障税种还未开征。尽管如此，许多主要的太阳能机构、专家和主要参与者都公开指责这一提议。
可再生能源顾问Urvish Dave认为，如果实施安全保障关税，印度的组件制造商将无法满足印度太阳能开发商的技术商业需求。他表示目前印度国内仅有大约120家太阳能组件制造商/组装商，产能约7.5-8吉瓦。大多数印度生产线是半自动的，质量平平，无法提供365 +WP容量的72电池单晶PERC组件。
印度太阳能联合会主席兼全球太阳能理事会当选主席Pranav Mehta，将这一征税提议描述为一个“令人不安的提议”和“倒退”，认为它将带来价格的上升。
