The optional subsidy application period will end on September 30, 2022.
You may simply register for the power Voluntary Subsidy Scheme over WhatsApp if your electricity service provider is BSES. It's vital to remember that in order to receive the subsidy if you are renting an apartment and want to do so, you must let the owner know.
