MANGALORE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY COMPANY LIMITED

In the year 1999, the state government initiated the reforms process of the power sector. As a first step in 1999, the Karnataka Electricity Board was bifurcated into two companies. Karnataka Power Transmission Corporation Limited (KPTCL) and Vishweswaraiah Vidyut Nigama Limited (VVNL). The Karnataka Electricity Regulatory Commission (KERC) was also setup in 1999. In the subsequent stage of reforms, the transmission and distribution activities carried out by KPTCL were unbundled and four power distribution companies were formed in June, 2002. Mangalore Electricity Supply Company Limited (MESCOM) is one of the companies thus formed, with its headquarters at Mangalore. Another company i,e. CESC was carved out of MESCOM from June, 2005 to manage distribution functions. MESCOM is vested with the responsibility of distribution of power to the districts of Dakshina Kannada, Udupi, Shivamogga and Chikkamagalur. The company’s logo in blue has a stencilled ‘M’ on which a electric pole with lines has been superimposed in a circular cutout. This crested by its acronym in Kannada and supported by English acronym.
