Electricity and water
Apply for a new electricity connection
A new metered connection for a house or shop is applied for through the distribution company's portal or the local electricity office.
Which electricity company supplies your area?
Why we ask: Bihar has two distribution companies and each handles its own area, so the complaint must go to the right one.
