Many State Electricity Boards (SEBs) have issued requests and solicited bids for the installation of smart meters, indicating that the 'Reforms-Based, Result-Linked Power Distribution Sector Scheme' is having a tangible effect.

Mr. Jitendra Kumar Agarwal, Joint Managing Director, Genus Power Infrastructures Ltd. said, "We are delighted to announce that our company has won a significant order worth Rs. 2,207 crore. This is a significant achievement for our company, and it is a testament to our commitment to providing innovative and reliable solutions to our customers. It also demonstrates the trust that our customers have in our ability to deliver high-quality products and services.
This order win provides added visibility to our revenues for coming years. It also signals a strong start to order inflow in FY24. We anticipate a sharp revenue rebound in coming quarters on account of robust orderbook and healthy order inflow, and restoration of normalcy in the supply chain.
The implementation of the Revamped Distribution Sector Scheme (RDSS) is expected to have a radical impact on the Indian metering industry. The scheme will lead to a multifold increase in the annual size of the industry, as well as a transition from conventional to smart meters. This will allow for better operating margins for metering companies."
