Bangalore Electricity Supply Company (Bescom) is set to formally request a one-month extension to wrap up the ongoing Gruha Jyothi consumer survey across its jurisdiction.

Utility officials cited initial server glitches, documentation bottlenecks, and a massive volume of unregistered rural households as primary reasons for seeking additional time from the state government.

The comprehensive field survey remains crucial to ensure all eligible domestic consumers seamlessly receive their free electricity benefits without facing billing disruptions in the upcoming cycle.
