India’s Power Reform Push: Fixing the DISCOM Problem

India is set to introduce a Draft Electricity Amendment Bill aimed at fixing the weakest link in the power sector — state-owned power distribution companies (DISCOMs). Burdened by massive losses, rising debt, and repeated government bailouts, DISCOMs have been hurting the entire power ecosystem, from generators to consumers. The new bill targets core issues like expensive long-term power purchase agreements, politically sensitive tariff pricing, delayed subsidies, and heavy cross-subsidisation. It proposes reforms such as private competition in power distribution, faster tariff revisions, clearer Centre-State coordination, reduced cross-subsidies, and stricter renewable purchase norms. While the bill promises efficiency and financial discipline, it also raises concerns around regulatory independence, centralisation of power, and potential tariff impacts.
