Tata Power, India's largest integrated power utility, today announced that over 32% of its 2.5 million customers in the country are now digital-only customers.

The first phase of this new initiative has managed to convert the entire customer lifecycle (from submission of application forms for new power supply connections to payment of bills) to a mobile-friendly digital platform, thus improving the customer experience significantly.

Praveer Sinha, CEO & MD, Tata Power said, ''As the largest integrated power utility company in the country, customer experience comes before everything else for us.  The new digital initiative is specifically designed to enhance customer experience and the high level of adoption in the very first phase of its launch stands testimonial to the success of this initiative. In the coming months, we will be rolling out more such customer-friendly services.''
