Tata Power introduces spot electricity meter billing facility in Mumbai

According to the company, the spot billing facility will help consumers get the electricity bill instantly and verify the meter reading in presence of the meter reader. 

 

The process of spot billing is carried out by the meter reader by entering the meter reading with help of a hand-held device through a Spot Billing Application software. The meter readings are validated through real-time reading and billing quality checks through the system. 

 

The average time taken for this entire process is around 90 to 180 seconds, thus reducing the time taken in the traditional process by three days, said the company. The bill is printed with all the parameters to enable a consumer understand the bill easily.

 

Speaking on the occasion, Ashok Sethi, COO & ED, Tata Power said, “We, at Tata Power have always strived hard in bringing in the best to our consumers. The spot billing initiative further reinforces our commitment towards providing value added services to our consumers through instantaneous meter reading and bill generation. This facility will help in strengthening our relationship with our consumers and also benefit the environment by lowering the overall Carbon Footprint and reducing on the man-hours in operations.”
