Currently, most distribution zones are government-controlled and financially struggling; the proposal aims to improve efficiency and reduce losses by introducing competition. If enacted, multiple power suppliers could operate in the same area, giving consumers a choice and potentially better service.

Telangana Drops Additional Surcharge for Open Access Consumers (Oct 2025–Mar 2026)

The Telangana State Electricity Regulatory Commission (TSERC) has waived the additional surcharge on open-access power consumers for the second half of FY 2026 (Oct 1, 2025 to Mar 31, 2026). Previously, an additional surcharge of ₹1.45/kWh was levied in H1 FY 2026, and DISCOMs had petitioned for ₹0.35/kWh in H2. TSERC determined no surcharge is needed since Telangana DISCOMs reported no stranded power purchase costs for this period. In its analysis, the Commission found that any surplus capacity was adjusted via short-term sales/purchases, meaning open-access usage did not leave unused capacity costs. The waiver reduces charges for industries using open access, effective October 1.

Stakeholders can send comments on the draft by Nov 10, 2025. The proposal comes after the Supreme Court directed states in August to ensure cost-reflective tariffs for DISCOM viability.
