For electricity complaints in Karjat, Raigad, call MSEDCL’s 24x7 customer care on 1912 or 19120, or use 1800-233-3435 / 1800-212-3435. These are statewide helplines. Local Bhisegaon subdivision contacts are listed separately below because their office hours and after-hours availability are not verified.
Essential Scope & Geographic Caveat: This guide strictly applies to Karjat Taluka in Raigad District, Maharashtra (PIN 410201) under the Bhandup Urban Zone and Pen Circle / Panvel Rural Division. It does not apply to Karjat in Ahilyanagar (formerly Ahmednagar) district. Official sources confirm statewide 24x7 customer care lines; however, local mobile numbers published in official RTI directories represent administrative desk roles rather than staffed 24-hour dispatch lines. Published details were verified against official MSEDCL portals on October 7, 2026.
Urgent Safety Notice: Fallen Wires and Sparking Equipment
If you observe a snapped overhead electrical wire, collapsed power pole, or exploding transformer equipment, stay at least 10 meters away and keep all bystanders clear. Do not touch or attempt to clear the line, even with wooden sticks or rubber items. Call the emergency helpline 1912 immediately and report the precise physical location and landmark.

Which Karjat Electricity Numbers Are Available 24x7?
MSEDCL operates four statewide toll-free voice helplines active 24 hours a day, 7 days a week: 1912, 19120, 1800-233-3435, and 1800-212-3435. These centralized call centres handle load dispatch coordination and route local fault tickets to the Karjat field staff.
Which alternative should I use if a line is busy?
During major monsoon squalls or lightning strikes across the Western Ghats, the short-code 1912 can experience severe network congestion. If you hear a busy signal, immediately dial the 11-digit toll-free alternatives 1800-233-3435 or 1800-212-3435. If telephone lines remain congested, switch to automated SMS or missed-call logging, which process directly through MSEDCL’s central database servers.
Where is the Karjat Mahavitaran Office and Whom Should I Contact?
According to the official January 2026 Bhandup Zone RTI directory, the MSEDCL Karjat Sub Division office is located at Bhisegaon, Taluka Karjat, District Raigad, PIN 410201 (subdivision email: 4139sdo@gmail.com). The published administrative officers are:
- Deputy Executive Engineer / Public Information Officer (PIO): Shri. Chandrakant S. Kendre – Mobile: 9029165800
- Junior Engineer / Assistant PIO (APIO): Shri. Dinesh D. Suryavanshi – Mobile: 9029162772
- Divisional Executive Engineer (Panvel Rural Division): Shri. Vidyasagar M. Shinde – Mobile: 9029162888 (Vidyut Nagar, Bhingari, Panvel)
Is this the same as Karjat Ahilyanagar?
No. Maharashtra contains two talukas named Karjat: one in Raigad District (MMR / Western Ghats) and one in Ahilyanagar District (formerly Ahmednagar). Ensure your billing papers specify Raigad District / Bhandup Zone / Pen Circle / Panvel Rural Division to avoid contacting the wrong jurisdiction.
Is the local Bhisegaon office open all night?
No. The Bhisegaon administrative office observes standard government working hours for clerical and billing procedures. While junior linesmen and emergency field repair squads operate on rotating shifts during emergencies, the published officer mobiles are individual departmental lines, not staffed 24x7 call centres. For night outages, use the toll-free lines or SMS gateway.
How Do I Report a Karjat Power Cut by Phone?
To ensure your telephonic complaint is logged and dispatched quickly, keep your details ready before dialing 1912:
- Locate Your 12-Digit Consumer Number: Found printed at the top-left of any physical electricity bill or inside your Mahavitaran SMS payment receipt.
- Provide Your Exact Village & Landmark: Because Karjat spans over 176 revenue villages, clearly state your specific village (e.g., Bhisegaon, Halivali, Dahivali, Tiware, Kashele) and nearby landmark.
- Note Down the Service Request ID: The operator or automated IVR will generate a unique complaint tracking number. Write this down along with the time of the call.
How Do I Report No Power by Missed Call?
MSEDCL provides an automated missed-call service on 022-50897100. When dialed, the system automatically registers a power failure ticket and sends an SMS confirmation containing your request ID.
What if my mobile number is not registered?
The missed-call system requires that your calling number matches the mobile number registered in MSEDCL’s consumer database. If your mobile is unregistered, the call will disconnect without generating a ticket. To register your mobile, send an SMS with MREG <12-Digit Consumer Number> to 9930399303 (updates within 24 hours), or use the SMS complaint syntax directly.
What if one mobile number has multiple connections?
If you own multiple properties (e.g., a city flat and a Karjat weekend home) linked to the same mobile number, MSEDCL’s automated missed-call system automatically logs the outage against the first consumer number in ascending numerical order. To avoid reporting a power failure for the wrong property, use the explicit SMS format or phone customer care.
What SMS Should I Send to Report No Electricity?
You can log an outage from any mobile phone by sending a formatted text message to 9930399303:
NOPOWER <12-digit Consumer Number>
Example: If your consumer number is 012345678901, send: NOPOWER 012345678901 to 9930399303.
Note on Prior Registration: Unlike the missed-call service, MSEDCL’s detailed power failure documentation clarifies that mobile pre-registration is not mandatory for SMS complaint logging, as long as the 12-digit consumer number is supplied accurately.
What if another request is already open?
If your feeder or distribution transformer already has an active ticket logged by a neighbor, the SMS gateway will reply with the existing service request ID rather than generating duplicate work orders.
How Do I Complain and Track Status in the Official App or Portal?
For detailed progress updates or to attach photos of damaged electrical poles:
- Mahavitaran Android Mobile App: Download the official utility application from the Google Play Store. The app allows users to log outages, check scheduled load-shedding rosters, track feeder maintenance, and view billing history.
- Web Self Service (WSS) Portal: Navigate to the MSEDCL WSS Complaint Portal, enter your 12-digit consumer number, select “Supply Failure”, and submit.
Is There an Officially Confirmed Mahadiscom WhatsApp Number?
No current WhatsApp consumer complaint number was officially confirmed in checked MSEDCL publications. While MSEDCL occasionally delivers automated monthly bill notification alerts to registered WhatsApp numbers, there is no official bidirectional complaint registration bot published on official portals. Do not send personal documents or money to third-party phone numbers advertising themselves as WhatsApp electricity helplines. Use the verified voice, missed call, SMS, and portal routes detailed above.
Which Contact Handles Bill Errors or Failed Online Payments?
Different administrative departments handle commercial and billing discrepancies:
| Issue Category | Recommended Official Channel | Details Needed |
|---|---|---|
| Online payment debited but bill unpaid | Online Helpdesk: 022-26478246 / helpdesk_pg@mahadiscom.in |
Bank transaction ref, date, consumer number |
| Incorrect meter reading or abnormal bill | Karjat Sub Division (Bhisegaon) or WSS Portal | Current meter photo, past 3 months bills |
| New electricity meter connection | Mahavitaran WSS Portal (New Connection link) | 7/12 extract, building sanction, ID proof |
| Name transfer or tariff category change | Bhisegaon Sub Division Office counter | Registered sale deed, NOC from previous owner |
What Should I Do About a Fallen Wire or Sparking Equipment?
During high winds or tree fall across Karjat’s ghat sections, overhead 11kV and 22kV power lines can break:
- Assume Any Fallen Wire is Live: High-voltage lines do not always produce sparks or hum. Never step near pools of water touching fallen lines.
- Cordon Off the Area: Position a family member or bystander at a safe distance (minimum 30 feet) to prevent pedestrians, cyclists, or cattle from approaching.
- Call 1912 Immediately: State clearly: “Live wire snapped and fallen on the road in [Village Name], Karjat.” Give precise landmarks to enable rapid substation feeder shutdown.
What If My Complaint Remains Unresolved?
If standard complaints logged via 1912 or SMS remain unresolved beyond reasonable limits, follow this official escalation ladder:
- Escalate to Divisional Leadership: Contact the Executive Engineer, Panvel Rural Division, at 9029162888 (
eepanvelr2@gmail.com). - Approach the Consumer Grievance Redressal Forum (CGRF): If technical or commercial disputes remain unaddressed for over 60 days, consumers have the statutory right under the Electricity Act 2003 to approach the Bhandup Zone CGRF. Download grievance forms and procedural guides via the official CGRF Portal.
- Electricity Ombudsman: If the CGRF decision is unsatisfactory or delayed, submit an appeal before the Maharashtra Electricity Ombudsman within 60 days of the CGRF order.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the 24x7 MSEB number for Karjat?
MSEDCL lists 1912, 19120, 1800-233-3435, and 1800-212-3435 for statewide 24x7 customer care, which Karjat (Raigad) consumers can use at any time of day or night.
Is the local Karjat office open 24x7?
Local administrative office hours are not 24x7. Use statewide 24x7 customer care lines (1912) for nighttime outage complaints. Do not assume local officer mobile numbers are staffed overnight.
Where is the Karjat subdivision office?
The official January 2026 directory places the Karjat Sub Division office at Bhisegaon, Taluka Karjat, District Raigad, PIN 410201. It publishes 9029165800 for the Deputy Executive Engineer and 9029162772 for the Junior Engineer.
How do I send a no-power SMS?
Send NOPOWER <12-digit Consumer Number> to 9930399303. Replace the bracketed placeholder with your actual 12-digit consumer account number.
Do I need a registered mobile for missed call complaint?
Yes. Official missed-call instructions (022-50897100) require that you dial from a mobile number registered with MSEDCL. In contrast, SMS complaints do not mandate prior mobile registration.
How can I track my complaint?
Retain your service-request ID received via SMS confirmation and track it using the official Mahavitaran mobile app, the WSS consumer portal, or by calling 1912.
Is the SMS number also WhatsApp?
No checked official source identifies 9930399303 as a WhatsApp destination. Use it strictly as an SMS gateway.
What if my mobile has several connections?
The missed-call system automatically selects the first consumer number in ascending order. If you own multiple properties, use SMS or phone customer care so you can explicitly identify the intended consumer account.
Why do older sites show another local number?
Older 2024 directories published 7875765800 and 7875762822. The January 2026 official Bhandup Zone RTI directory updated these numbers to 9029165800 and 9029162772.
Will a complaint guarantee power returns soon?
No fixed repair-time promise is supported by official data. Registering a complaint officially logs the outage; only real-time field feeder restoration determines actual recovery times.
