GEB / UGVCL / DGVCL / MGVCL / PGVCL – Gujarat Electricity Bill Payment Online

By on April 29, 2015

Paying electricity bills online is the easiest way to avoid standing in queues for electricity bill payment. Most states in India now have online bill payment and Gujarat is not behind. Recent unbundling of state electricity boards has resulted in 4 different utilities or electricity providers in Gujarat. So the GEB or Gujarat Electricity Board is no longer supplying electricity and it is the state distribution companies that are doing so. The four companies are: Uttar Gujarat Vij Company Ltd. (UGVCL), Madhya Gujarat Vij Company Limited (MGVCL), Paschim Gujarat Vij Company Ltd. (PGVCL) and Dakshin Gujarat Vij Company Ltd. (DGVCL). All four of them have different websites for online bill payment. Based on convenience and ease of use people can choose one of the multiple methods that are available for making the payment:

  1. Uttar Gujarat Vij Company Ltd Portal (http://www.ugvcl.com/Online-payment.htm): This portal is specifically for the consumers of Uttar or northern parts of Gujarat.

Modes of Payments accepted: Debit/Credit Cards (VISA, MASTER CARDS and AMEX CARDS) 

  1. Madhya Gujarat Vij Company Ltd. Portal (MGVCL Link):  This portal is specifically for the consumers of Madhya Kshetra (or central part) of Gujarat.
