UPPCL subsidiary; official site has moved to kesco.org.in (older kesco.co.in pages still exist). Rural Kanpur Nagar and Kanpur Dehat are served by DVVNL, not KESCO. The UPPCL Consumer App lists only PuVVNL/MVVNL/DVVNL/PVVNL, so no app is listed here.
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.
