CESC has clarified that the deadline for submitting Gruha Jyothi beneficiary details is Aug. 31, not July 31. The utility's update is meant to clear up confusion about the cutoff date for households linked to the scheme.
The company also said there is no fee for this process. That point is significant for consumers, as it indicates beneficiary information can be updated or collected through the official process without any extra charge.
According to the clarification, meter readers will gather the required details from beneficiaries. The documents to be collected include Aadhaar, a photograph and identification papers, along with other necessary records tied to the scheme.
The latest communication suggests consumers should keep their documents ready for verification and rely on the official CESC process. The main message from the utility is that the Gruha Jyothi beneficiary details deadline remains Aug. 31 and that no payment is required for document collection.
