Delhi Extends Water Bill Surcharge Waiver Scheme to Aug 15
The Delhi government has extended its water bill late payment surcharge waiver scheme (LPSC) deadline to August 15, 2026, giving consumers more time to clear overdue bills without penal interest. Water Minister Parvesh Verma noted that over 3 lakh residents have already benefited, with waived surcharges totaling nearly ₹1,500 crore and ₹430 crore collected in principal dues so far. The extension aims to help more households settle pending bills as the Delhi Jal Board works to improve its billing system and address complaints.
