We have launched an Electronic Bill Presentment and Payment Services presently in Pune and Mumbai known as ” MahaBillPay ” in association with India Ideas.com Ltd. better known as Bill Desk Company.

Gist of the Scheme
** The Customer who wishes to make payment utility payments like Electricity, Telephone Bills, etc., should apply through the branch and get registered under the scheme. The Bill Desk Company for easy identification will provide each customer with unique registration number.
** Bill Desk Company would accordingly obtain the bills details of the registered customers from the Utility providers like MSEB, BSNL etc.

** Branches on receipt of the payment list would debit the account of the customer concerned accordingly.
