Step-by-Step Utility Activation Checklist

• **Electricity (CESC)**: If renting, simply collect the 10-digit Account ID from the electric meter box to set up automated UPI payments on Google Pay or PhonePe. If purchasing a property, transfer the name on the electricity account at your local CESC sub-divisional office with the sale deed and latest tax receipt.

• **Drinking Water (MCC)**: Water is supplied from the Kaveri and Kabini reservoirs on alternate days or daily morning schedules. Ensure your building has an underground sump and automatic overhead tank sensory pump.

• **Cooking Gas**: Visit your nearest local LPG distributor (Indane, HP, Bharatgas) with your rental agreement and Aadhaar card to obtain a domestic double-cylinder connection within 48 hours for approx. Rs 2,800.
