Shillong, March 31: The Meghalaya Power Distribution Corporation Limited (MePDCL) has announced the extension of its One-Time Settlement (OTS) Scheme 2025 for an additional month, providing consumers with an extended time to clear their outstanding electricity dues.
Originally set to conclude on March 31, 2025, the scheme will now remain available until April 30, 2025.
This decision comes in response to the overwhelming participation and positive impact of the scheme since its launch by Chief Minister Conrad K. Sangma, in the presence of the Power Minister, on March 4, 2025.
MePDCL has designed the OTS Scheme 2025 to ease the financial burden of outstanding electricity dues for Domestic and BPL consumers with connected load 5KW and below and disconnected due non-payment. Under this scheme, consumers can avail themselves of a 100% waiver on Delay Payment Surcharge (DPC). Consumers have the flexibility to choose either One-Time Full Payment or Interest-Free Instalment Plan.
A total of 12,262 consumers have enrolled in the scheme so far, resulting in the settlement of outstanding dues amounting to Rs. 15.97 crore. Of this, Rs. 11.13 crore accounts for the principal amount, while Rs. 4.84 crore has been waived off.
The extension of the OTS Scheme 2025 until April 30, 2025, is to enable more consumers to clear their electricity dues and avoid additional penalties.
In a press statement, MePDCL strongly encouraged all eligible consumers to take advantage of this extension and settle their outstanding bills under favourable terms.
To participate in the scheme, consumers can visit the nearest MePDCL office or call the toll-free number 1912 for detailed guidelines and enrolment procedures.
