ISLAMABAD, Oct 20 (APP):Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Islamabad Electric Supply Company (IESCO), Engineer Chaudhry Khalid Mehmood, has said that the timely payment of electricity bills is crucial for the company’s financial stability and for ensuring a strong and sustainable national economy.
In a statement issued on Monday, he said that a well-organized recovery campaign is underway across all IESCO operational circles to ensure prompt bill payments and recover outstanding dues from defaulters.
Sharing the results of the ongoing recovery drive, the CEO informed that IESCO’s recovery teams have shown outstanding performance, successfully collecting over Rs 6.84 billion from more than 227,000 running and dead defaulters. He added that electricity connections of several non-paying consumers have also been disconnected in accordance with company policy.

He said IESCO has introduced modern facilities to make bill payments easier and more efficient for consumers, including online payment systems, mobile applications, and other digital billing options. These, he noted, allow customers to pay their bills conveniently and on time.
The CEO urged all consumers to ensure timely payment of their electricity bills to avoid any inconvenience, including disconnection of supply, and to help IESCO maintain its commitment to providing uninterrupted, high-quality electricity services across its region.
