Mukhyamantri Vidyut Upbhokta Sahayata Yojana (125 units free electricity)

Also called MVUSY

The Mukhyamantri Vidyut Upbhokta Sahayata Yojana (125 units free electricity) is run by the Energy Department of the Government of Bihar through South and North Bihar Power Distribution Companies.

Beneficiaries get up to 125 units of electricity each month fully free, with energy charges, fixed charges, and electricity duties waived, while the state pays the bill. No application is needed, as the free units are applied automatically on the electricity bill or adjusted in the next bill for prepaid smart-meter users.
