How to check MGVCL's official shutdown list
MGVCL publishes planned shutdowns and current faults feeder by feeder on its own site, for its whole area, as one long table. We do not copy it automatically, so check it there: it is the official list.
- Open MGVCL's Shutdown / Power Outages page. MGVCL power outages
- Search the page for "Vadodara" (Ctrl+F, or Find in page on a phone). Vadodara city feeders show "Vadodara (M Corp+OG)" in the Village Names column, so go by the subdivision (first column) and feeder name to find yours.
- Rows marked PSD are planned shutdowns. SF/ESD rows are faults and emergency shutdowns. Each row gives the start time and the estimated restore time.
- The MGVCL App, MGVCL's own app, lists power outage information and lets you register a no-power complaint.Android
- If your feeder is not listed and the power is out, call 19124 or 1800 233 2670, or say "Hi" on WhatsApp to 91840 12564.

Complaint not fixed? How to escalate

GUVNL subsidiary. mgvcl.com (http/https, /contact-us.php) and guvnl.com were still unreachable (connection refused), and guj-epd.gujarat.gov.in/Home/HelpLine timed out. The toll-free number 1800-233-2670 was read from the official Panchmahal district administration site (panchmahals.nic.in), which lists it as the phone for Madhya Gujarat Vij Company Limited; kheda.nic.in lists only MGVCL division office landlines. Short-code 19124 (widely quoted) is NOT included because no official page showing it could be opened. MGVCL App verified on the official Play Store listing (developer Madhya Gujarat Vij Company Limited).
Regulator: Gujarat Electricity Regulatory Commission
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 Vadodara today?
The top of this page shows outages that residents of Vadodara 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 MGVCL.
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 Vadodara?
Call MGVCL on 1800-233-2670, 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.
