In a bid to promote energy efficiency and reduce electricity consumption, BSES discoms have announced an attractive offer where consumers can exchange their old air-conditioners and ceiling fans and buy new ones with up to a 63% discount. BSES Rajdhani (BRPL) and BSES Yamuna (BYPL) are running this exchange scheme and have also released a document listing out the price, discount and exchange value for the ACs and fans. Under this initiative, eligible customers can avail discounts of up to 63% when exchanging their old ACs and fans for new, energy-efficient models.
According to the details shared by BSES discoms, the scheme is being run in collaboration with leading manufacturers like Voltas, Godrej, LG, Daikin and Havells. The exact amount of discount depends on the model and the exchange offer applicable at the time of purchase.
The scheme "shall enable the consumers, residing in South and West Delhi, to exchange their old working ACs with the new energy efficient 5-star rated ACs at a substantial discount of up to 63% on MRP," said BRPL on its website.
"It will enable consumers, residing in East and Central Delhi, to exchange their old ACs with new Energy Efficient 5-star rated ACs at a substantial discount of up to 60%," said BYPL on its site.
The scheme is open to residential consumers of both BSES Yamuna (covering Central and East Delhi) and BSES Rajdhani (covering South and West Delhi).
To be eligible, consumers must have an AC in working condition installed in the same premises. Consumers should not have any outstanding dues against the CA number on which the scheme is being availed, as on the date of Registration, and all outstanding dues have been cleared.
The maximum number of ACs that a consumer can exchange under the BRPL AC Replacement Scheme is three per CA number. The offer applies only to working or non-working ACs and fans being exchanged.
It is advised to register early, as the scheme is available on a first-come, first-served basis and may be subject to limited inventory.

Friday November 08, 2024हमारी हवा जहरीली हो रही है. गुरुवार की शाम को जब मैं इस मुद्दे पर लिखने बैठी तो AQI लगातार 400 पार जाकर दम घोंट रहा था. बहुत लोगों को यह मामला बोरिंग लगे, लेकिन जब आप अपने साथ काम करने वालों को खांसते-हांफते देखते-सुनते हैं, तो चिंता होने लगती है. सुबह उठते ही दरवाजे खिड़कियां खोलने के लिए डॉक्टर मना कर रहे हैं. बड़े बुजुर्गों के लिए तो मॉर्निंग वॉक बाहर की दुनिया से सीधे संपर्क का ज़रिया है, लेकिन डॉक्टर इसकी भी मनाही कर रहे हैं.
