Rayzon Solar Honoured at ELLE Sustainability Awards 2025: A National Recognition of Green Leadership

On May 30th, 2025, the JW Marriott in Juhu, Mumbai, lit up with more than just lights; it sparkled with hope, innovation and commitment to a greener world. The third edition of the ELLE Sustainability Awards, presented by BYD, was a grand celebration of India’s eco-conscious trailblazers. Under the theme “Getting Greener,” the event honoured brands and leaders who are actively transforming sustainability from a buzzword into measurable impact. For Rayzon Solar, receiving an award on this national platform wasn’t just a proud moment but a validation of a vision driven by purpose, innovation and responsibility.

The ELLE Sustainability Awards are more than just a ceremonial nod; they are a clarion call to action. In an age when environmental awareness risks becoming little more than a trend, the 2025 edition of this pioneering event encouraged action, not just applause.

This year’s event wasn’t just a celebration, it was a conversation. A curated, insightful exchange that went beyond surface-level sustainability. The panel discussion, titled “The Many Shades of India’s Sustainability Story,” explored the depth and diversity of India’s environmental efforts. From grassroots education movements to plant-based living, from indigenous craftsmanship to clean tech innovation, this panel emphasised that sustainability is not one, size, fits all. It’s a beautifully complex tapestry of local actions and national ambitions.

Rayzon Solar’s Journey to National Recognition

From a humble beginning in Surat to becoming one of India’s largest solar panel manufacturers, Rayzon Solar has built its identity around one powerful mission: driving India’s clean energy transition. Their relentless pursuit of innovation, their investment in next-generation technologies like TOPCon and bifacial modules and their commitment to carbon reduction have all contributed to this national recognition. At the ELLE Sustainability Awards 2025, this journey was celebrated not as a corporate achievement alone but as a shared vision for a better, greener India.

This remarkable recognition was received by Rayzon Solar’s dynamic founders, Mr. Chirag Nakrani, also known as a shark on Shark Tank India’s Ecopreneur Series and Mr. Hardik Kothiya. Their presence on the ELLE stage symbolised more than leadership; it was a testament to entrepreneurial courage and environmental stewardship. As they accepted the award, the moment was charged with emotion and pride, not just for them, but for every person who has been part of Rayzon’s story.

While receiving the award on stage at the ELLE Sustainability Awards 2025, Mr. Chirag Nakrani shared a message that deeply resonated with the audience:

• “This recognition isn’t just for me or my Friend Hardik, it belongs to our entire team, our partners, and every individual who believed in our dream. At Rayzon Solar, we didn’t just aim to manufacture solar panels, we set out to create a meaningful impact. And tonight, standing here, I feel humbled, proud and more committed than ever to continue our journey towards a cleaner, more sustainable India.”

“Sustainability is not an option, it’s a responsibility.”
– Mr. Chirag Nakrani, Founder and MD, Rayzon Solar

This award is more than just a trophy for Rayzon Solar, it’s a symbol of trust, hard work and the belief in a greener tomorrow. Every member of the team, whether working on product development, promoting solar adoption, or supporting operations, shares in this proud moment.

Beyond manufacturing, Rayzon leads in CSR activities, including solar-powered schools, green energy awareness programs, plantation drives and rural electrification projects. These efforts reflect the company’s deep commitment to building a cleaner, more sustainable future for India and the world.
