BSES consumers in Delhi can apply online for meter testing via WhatsApp by sending 'Hi' to 8800919123 for BSES Rajdhani or 8745999888 for BSES Yamuna. Alternatively, you can use the official BSES mobile app by logging in with your CA number and selecting the meter faulty option under complaints, or visit the official website at www.bsesdelhi.com to fill out an online meter testing application.
To apply offline, submit a written application addressed to the Divisional Officer detailing the issue, along with a copy of your latest electricity bill, an official ID proof, and a clear photo of the current meter screen showing the reading and KW load.
If the inspection proves that the meter is faulty, the company will install a new meter free of charge and refund your initial testing fee by adjusting it in the next month's bill. Additionally, your excessively high bills for that period will be corrected based on your average consumption from the same period of the previous year.
