What are the electricity charges in MSEB?

  • MSEB (Maharashtra State Electricity Board) is the primary electricity provider for the state of Maharashtra, India. It was established to generate, transmit, and distribute electricity across the region. After restructuring, MSEB was divided into three entities: MSEDCL for distribution, Mahagenco for generation, and Mahatransco for transmission. MSEB continues to play a vital role in ensuring efficient power supply to millions of households, businesses, and industries in Maharashtra.
