Genus Power Deploys One Crore Smart Meters Under RDSS Across Nine States

Genus Power, an energy measurement solutions company, has deployed one crore smart meters under Revamped Distribution Sector Scheme (RDSS) across major DISCOMs as an Advanced Metering Infrastructure Service Provider (AMISP). This milestone spans installations across nine states, reflecting the company’s pan-India execution capability and its role in advancing large-scale DISCOM reforms.

The company has recently added a new integrated manufacturing facility at Kotputli along with Jaipur, Haridwar, Guwahati to strengthen its manufacturing capabilities and continues to enable India’s grid modernisation and digital energy transformation.

Genus has manufactured 1.5 crore smart meters that have been deployed through various Advanced Metering Infrastructure Service Providers (AMISPs) and utility partners. The company supports these deployments through its manufacturing and R&D operations.

A total of 2.5 crore Genus smart meters are currently operational across India, out of nearly 5.62 crore smart meters deployed nationally. The meters support billing accuracy, consumption monitoring and other power distribution functions for households and businesses.

Commenting on the achievement, Jitendra Kumar Agarwal, Joint Managing Director, Genus Power, said, “Crossing the one crore smart meter mark is a defining moment not just for Genus Power, but for India’s power distribution transformation. RDSS represents the largest smart metering rollouts globally, and this milestone reflects the sector’s clear shift toward system resilience and execution at scale. This journey has been built on conviction, faith in the reform, and confidence in India’s domestic manufacturing capabilities. India’s power reforms now demand the right power-tech infrastructure, and Genus is on war-footing to support utilities as this transformation moves into its most critical phase.” 

As smart meter penetration deepens, Genus plans to create a strong digital backbone for India’s power infrastructure- enabling better grid planning, efficient peak-demand management, loss reduction and integration of renewable energy at an unmatched scale. Under RDSS, India aims to replace 25 crore conventional meters with smart meters by 2028.

Genus is also expanding its global footprint across Africa, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, Pacific and SAARC markets. Backed by strong hardware capabilities and a 300 plus member software team, Genus delivers end-to-end digital and metering solutions, positioning itself as a trusted partner for utilities globally.
