How to check GESCOM's official shutdown list
GESCOM has a Proposed Outage Schedule page, but when we checked, its newest schedules were for August 2025, and Kalaburagi City division last appeared there for February 2024. So there is no current official list for the city that we can show here.
- Check GESCOM's Proposed Outage Schedule page in case it has been updated. Schedules are listed by month, one file per division. GESCOM proposed outage schedule
- If the power is out, call 1912 to register a complaint, and ask whether your area is under planned maintenance.
- Or send an SMS with the word GESCOM to 9769368959, or message GESCOM on WhatsApp at 9480847593. GESCOM's own complaints page lists both. GESCOM consumer complaints

Complaint not fixed? How to escalate
Every distribution licensee in India must run a Consumer Grievance Redressal Forum, and every state has an Electricity Ombudsman above it. Work up the ladder; keep your complaint number from step one.
- 1
Local sub-division / Assistant Executive Engineer (O&M)
Register on 1912 and keep the docket number; approach the sub-division office if unresolved.
- 2
Consumer Grievance Redressal Forum (CGRF), GESCOM
Written complaint to the CGRF if the sub-division does not resolve it.
- 3
Electricity Ombudsman, Karnataka Electricity Regulatory Commission
Appeal against the CGRF order to the Electricity Ombudsman at KERC, Bengaluru.
gescom.karnataka.gov.in still times out. GESCOM's legacy official domain gescom.in opened: footer reads 'Copyright GESCOM - Site Maintained by IT Section, Corporate Office, GESCOM, Gulbarga', names the MD, shows live load data, and states 'For Electricity Complaints TOLL FREE No. 18004258585'. The site's footer copyright is dated 2014, so treat this number as verified-official but possibly legacy; 1912 could not be confirmed on any official GESCOM page and is omitted. The 'GESCOM Snehi' Play Store listing now returns 404 and has been removed; replaced with the GESCOM-Smart Meter app (developer Gulbarga Electricity Supply Company Limited, website gescom.karnataka.gov.in). kalaburagi.nic.in pages were unreachable (robots.txt 204).

Why does the next street have power and you don't?
In most Indian cities your supply comes off a feeder shared with a few neighbouring areas. When a transformer overheats in summer, the discom often switches areas off in turn to let it cool — so your neighbour's lights come back while yours go out. Complaining moves the cut; it doesn't end it. Knowing this changes what you should do.
Common questions
Is there a power cut in Kalaburagi today?
The top of this page shows outages that residents of Kalaburagi reported in the last 24 hours, and any shutdown the electricity company has announced. No reports does not prove the supply is on. If your power is out, report it here and call GESCOM.
How do I check for a power cut in my area?
Look here for reports near you and for announced shutdowns, check your electricity company's app or website for planned maintenance, or call its helpline with your consumer number: they can tell you whether your feeder is down.
Why is there a power cut in my area today?
Usually one of three things: maintenance the company announced in advance, a fault on your feeder or transformer, or load shedding when demand is higher than supply. If the next street has power and you don't, you are probably on a different feeder.
Where do I complain about a power cut in Kalaburagi?
Call GESCOM on 1800-425-8585, or dial 1912. Write down the complaint number they give you: if the supply isn't restored in time, that number is what you take to the CGRF.
