The Telangana government is strengthening its investment-friendly environment by introducing transparent and simplified electricity connection procedures for the real estate, construction and industrial sectors, TGSPDCL Chairman and Managing Director Jitesh V. Patil, IAS, said.
Addressing CREDAI Hyderabad's monthly meeting at Park Hyatt Hotel in Banjara Hills, he explained the uniform service line charges introduced for 11 kV High Tension (HT) electricity connections under TGERC Regulation No. 07 of 2026.
Under the new policy, eligible new 11 kV HT connections and additional load applications will attract a standard overhead service line charge of ₹4,078 per kVA of contracted demand. The uniform tariff applies to connections receiving power through an overhead common feeder from the existing 11 kV network, located within a one-kilometre radius.
Jitesh V. Patil said the standardised charging mechanism would enable consumers and developers to estimate electricity connection costs in advance, replacing individual cost assessments with a transparent and predictable system.
He emphasised that simplified electricity services would improve investor confidence and support the growth of real estate, infrastructure and industrial projects across Telangana.
With the state preparing to host its Global Summit, transparent policies and investor-friendly services would provide greater confidence to international investors and industrialists considering opportunities in Telangana. Patil added that power distribution companies play an important role in attracting investments and supporting the state's overall economic development.
