Be on your toes always: TGSPDCL boss to babus
Speaking at a meeting held recently at the company's headquarters in Mint Compound with Chief Engineers, Superintending Engineers, and Divisional Engineers, the CMD stated that out of 8,681 11kV feeders under the company's jurisdiction, 6,885 are currently monitored through the Feeder Outage Management System. Efforts are actively underway to bring the remaining feeders under this comprehensive system as well.
He announced that Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based services are being introduced at the distribution level to record details of power demand, supply, and interruptions online, providing immediate alerts to relevant engineers. Analysing these details, he noted, will enable the delivery of more efficient service.
While the Feeder Outage Management System is already operational at substations and feeders, the integration of AI-based services is expected to further assist in identifying supply issues and defects at the field level, leading to enhanced service provision for consumers.
The CMD also issued clear directives to officials, instructing them to monitor power supply daily at the Distribution Transformer (DTR) level. Divisional Engineers and Superintending Engineers were specifically told to focus on feeders and DTRs experiencing frequent issues, conduct thorough field visits, and take all necessary remedial actions promptly. Noting that power demand, particularly within Greater Hyderabad, is increasing significantly each year, the CMD instructed officials to prepare detailed reports by 15 August outlining the measures required to effectively address this growing demand. He further emphasised that services such as sanctioning new connections must be processed strictly as per Standards of Performance (SOP) within the stipulated timeframes, ensuring that no consumer complaints arise.

Generative AI set to improve banking operations in India by 46%: RBI Report
New Delhi [India], August 14 (ANI): Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) has the potential to improve banking operations in India by up to 46 per cent, according to a report by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI). The central bank noted that AI can help financial institutions better understand customer behaviour, improve efficiency, and offer more personalised services at scale. It stated, "GenAI is poised to improve banking operations in India by up to 46 per cent". The report said AI is increasingly being adopted across the financial services sector. This adoption is being driven by multiple needs, including enhancing customer experience, improving employee productivity, increasing revenue, reducing operational costs, ensuring regulatory compliance, and enabling the creation of new and innovative products. As per report, Generative AI, in particular, is playing a major role by using advanced analytics to help institutions understand customer behaviour, manage risks more effectively, and control costs. AI-powered alternative credit scoring models are also helping expand credit access to people who are underserved by the traditional banking system. RBI also stated that in India, where millions of people still do not have access to formal banking, AI can help assess the creditworthiness of potential borrowers using non-traditional data sources. These may include information such as utility bill payments, mobile usage patterns, GST filings, or e-commerce transactions. Such technology can help bring "thin-file" or "new-to-credit" customers into the formal financial system. The report also pointed out that AI chatbots are transforming customer service by handling routine queries around the clock, providing faster resolutions, and freeing up human staff for more complex tasks. Globally, the adoption of AI in financial services has been growing rapidly. The RBI report said that AI is expected to directly contribute to revenue growth for the industry in the coming years. The generative AI segment alone is projected to exceed ₹ 1.02 lakh crore (about USD 12 billion) by 2033, growing at an annual rate of 28-34 per cent. The findings highlighted that with proper use, AI can make banking in India more efficient, inclusive, and customer-friendly while driving strong growth for the sector. (ANI)
