It differs from Gross metering which has a fixed feed-in tariff rate for power produced and a retail rate for power used. Thus, net metering is usually more beneficial for a solar user. In India, most net metering across states comes with a limit of upto 1 MW.

ALMM stands for the Approved List of Module Manufacturers. It is a list released by India’s Ministry of New And Renewable Energy (MNRE), and lists all the manufacturers whose modules are approved for use in solar projects in India.
Following a recent notification on March 27, the MNRE has made it clear that only ALMM approved modules can be used in all government backed projects, and even projects in Open Access and Rooftop solar. That means you could potentially use foreign modules (after paying a 40% customs/import duty), only in off grid solar projects that are not subsidised in any way, if at all.
