Torrent Power Case Study

When one of India’s leading energy providers, Torrent Power, faced the challenge of managing high customer footfall across its service centers, it turned to digital innovation to enhance efficiency and customer experience.

With thousands of customers visiting for service requests, billing inquiries, and support, a structured, seamless, and technology-driven system became essential.

This case study explores how NET-e India’s Queue Management System helped Torrent Power streamline operations, reduce wait times, and deliver a more organized and customer-friendly service environment.

Client Overview: Torrent Power, India

Torrent Power, a flagship company of the Torrent Group, is one of India’s most respected integrated power utilities. The company operates across the entire power value chain—generation, transmission, and distribution—serving millions of customers nationwide.

Known for its commitment to reliability, innovation, and sustainability, Torrent Power continuously adopts advanced technologies to improve operational efficiency and customer satisfaction.

The Challenge: Managing High Customer Footfall Efficiently

In a service-driven environment such as power distribution, customer interactions are frequent and often time-sensitive.

At Torrent Power’s service centers, customers visit for:

• Billing and payment-related queries

During peak hours, managing this volume of customers manually created operational bottlenecks.

Key Issues:

• Unstructured queues leading to confusion at service counters
• Long waiting times are impacting customer satisfaction
• Difficulty in managing diverse customer categories
• Lack of real-time communication and tracking
• Limited feedback mechanisms for service improvement

The Solution: NET-e India’s Digital Queue Management System

To overcome these challenges, Torrent Power implemented NET-e Q, a cloud-based Queue Management System across multiple service centers.

Our team deployed a customized solution to handle high footfall while ensuring a smooth, intuitive customer journey.

Key Components Deployed:

• Touchscreen-based Self-Service Kiosk (NET-e Q Sleek)
• SMS-enabled token generation system
