Mahagun Mywoods Power Cut Over ₹1.05 Crore Dues in Greater Noida West
Electricity supply at Greater Noida West’s Mahagun Mywoods was restored after four hours when the society management paid ₹52.5 lakh and promised to clear the remaining dues.
- NPCL disconnected electricity supply at around 11:15 am over outstanding dues exceeding ₹1.05 crore.
- Power was restored around 3:45 pm after the management deposited ₹52.5 lakh.
- The society has been disconnected seven times since November 2025 over repeated payment defaults.
Greater Noida: Residents of Mahagun Mywoods in Greater Noida West faced a four-hour power disruption on Friday after Noida Power Company Limited (NPCL) disconnected electricity supply over unpaid bills exceeding ₹1.05 crore. The disconnection took place at approximately 11:15 am, marking the seventh such action against the residential society in about a year.
Electricity supply was restored around 3:45 pm after the society management deposited ₹52.5 lakh towards the outstanding amount. According to officials, the management also submitted an undertaking to pay the remaining ₹51,88,707 by Monday. The payment arrangement allowed the utility to restore power to the approximately 5,000-family residential complex.
NPCL spokesperson Manoj Jha said the action followed repeated payment defaults despite several notices and reminders to the society management. He stated that the outstanding electricity dues had not been cleared within the stipulated timelines, leaving the distribution company with little option but to disconnect the supply.
Seventh Power Disconnection Since November 2025
The latest incident is part of a recurring payment dispute between NPCL and the Mahagun Mywoods management. Electricity supply to the society has reportedly been disconnected seven times since November 2025 because of unpaid electricity bills.
NPCL records show that the previous disconnection took place on October 16, when the outstanding amount was ₹58.59 lakh. Earlier incidents included:
- September 17, 2026: Outstanding dues of ₹51.50 lakh.
- April 14, 2026: Outstanding dues of ₹46.72 lakh.
- March 16, 2026: Outstanding dues of ₹71.40 lakh.
- December 15, 2025: Outstanding dues of ₹68.04 lakh.
- November 14, 2025: Outstanding dues of ₹85.41 lakh.
The repeated disconnections indicate that the electricity payment issue has continued despite previous interventions and opportunities given to the management.
Avinash Singh, Deputy General Manager at Mahagun Mywoods, said the power supply was disconnected through a vacuum circuit breaker (VCB) at around 11 am. He added that the NPCL team subsequently visited the premises, reset the system and restored electricity supply at approximately 3:45 pm.
The management’s response came after the partial payment was made to NPCL. However, the remaining dues of ₹51.88 lakh are still required to be cleared within the agreed timeline.
Although electricity supply has been restored, repeated disconnections have become a concern for residents of the large housing society. Power interruptions can affect essential household activities, lifts, water supply systems and other common facilities, particularly in high-rise residential complexes.
The latest incident also raises questions about the management of electricity payments and the financial arrangements used to ensure uninterrupted power supply to residents. While the immediate disruption lasted around four hours, recurring payment defaults could create further uncertainty for thousands of families.
The immediate priority for the Mahagun Mywoods management is to clear the remaining ₹51,88,707 by the promised Monday deadline. Failure to honour the undertaking could lead to further action by NPCL, depending on the outstanding balance and applicable procedures.
Residents will also be looking for greater transparency from the society management regarding electricity billing, payment collections and the utilisation of funds collected from apartment owners.
With seven disconnections reported in approximately one year, resolving the underlying payment issue will be essential to preventing further power disruptions at Mahagun Mywoods.
