UPI (Unified Payment Interface) is an instant payment system through which we transfer money as well as pay the utility bills. In this post, I would tell you the way to pay the electricity bill through the 5 most popular apps. These are Google Pay, Paytm, Phonepe, BHIM and SBI Pay

Requirements to Pay Electricity Bill
To check and pay the electricity bill, you must fulfill some requirements.
- Consumer number- The electricity distribution company provides the consumer number to each of its customers. You can find it from your physical electricity bill.
- UPI App- You must have installed a UPI app such as Google Pay, BHIM APP, Paytm, Mobikwik, PhonePe, Airtel Payments Bank, SBI Pay etc.
- UPI PIN- To pay money through the UPI apps, you should have a UPI PIN. This PIN is key to your linked bank account. Without this PIN you would not be able to pay from your bank account.
- Balance in account- And the last but not least, you must have the balance in your bank account linked with the UPI APP.
