fundamental beliefs and are the guiding principles that determine our every action. Our values have
helped us grow from strength to strength and become one of India’s most trusted organisations.

“Leadership
Is Never Dependent
ON AGEâ€
Risk Taking
“A consistently high-performer, Samiul was pulled out of the Nature's Basket store by the cops, beaten up and put in a police van in front of his entire team for requesting one customer to wear her mask. He was brought out of the situation very soon and the entire leadership team was proud of his dignified behavior. He was back on duty in 48 hours after this incident, serving his customers like never before. â€

Risk Taking
“Sreemonta went to inspect a large 5-storied hotel where two CESC meters were found tampered with. The hotel staff along with the manager resisted the arrival of the CESC team. With Sreemonta and the LCC team's intervention, the meters were seized by the police and a criminal case was registered against the hotel owners. He also similarly detected power theft by hooking in a large building and from both these cases a large amount of due payment was recovered and the customers could be billed as per the actual consumption. â€

Customer First
“During the lockdown, a large number of international orders were pending to be executed. Even though cargo was available, there was complete restriction on movement of non-essential goods. Customers would cancel the order if not delivered quickly. Indranil was focused on meeting customer expectations even under unusual constraints. He serviced complex, international sales orders that are bound by many rules and regulations and need close coordination with functions like planning, plant, shipping line, port, customs etc. It resulted in getting repeated orders, enhancing productivity of the plants, speedy error-free execution, stock liquidation in the four plants, and ultimately customer delight. â€

Customer First
“The World Bank mandated that the time frame in which new service connections were provided to consumers would be considered as one of the parameters on which the Doing Business (DoB) scoring and ranking of India would be decided. It was necessary to align the system to meet revised benchmarks and eliminate bottlenecks. Shovik conceptualised the entire process and system architecture, organised multiple stakeholder consultation workshops and created a faster cash cycle to streamline CESC's new connection procedure.â€

Credibility
“As the lockdown started, the commodities operation and movement of people were affected in the whole country including coastal Andhra Pradesh. Vijayawada/Guntur store employees were scared as in both these places the COVID positive numbers were high and many areas were declared as red zones. Babu brought the store team back to work by assuring them and their family members about the safety measures at the workplace. He imparted awareness training that enabled them to deliver commodities to red zones without any interruptions and fear. â€

Humaneness
“Last year, CESC's Loss Control Cell took up the challenge of replacing regular meters with smart meters in a slum in Howrah, which is a heavy pilfer-prone and accident prone zone. One of the contractors engaged with the project was heckled and detained at the site till late in the night by the locals. Prasenjit reached the place and solved the issue amicably. He also convinced and motivated owners of various food outlets to convert to electrical heating to avoid fire hazards. â€

He convinced the radio stations and TV channels to play Saregama's non-film music for the first time. He played a lead role in the creation of the Disco Dancer 2.0 when Saregama did not have any new movies to release, keeping the content engine working smoothly during lockdown.â€

Execution Excellence
“Nabarun developed and implemented software for capturing CESC's meter reading data through tabs. It completely eliminated the step of capturing the hand-written entries from meter-reading books, thus saving time and scope of error. He was also involved in the smart AMI meter project that helps in remote meter reading, remote reconnection and disconnection of meters, quicker billing, accurate meter readings, reduction in man-power needed for manual reading, and chances of theft and tampering.â€

Agility
“The time taken for getting liquor license is minimum 3 years in West Bengal. Sumit coordinated with the Excise Authorities and Government to obtain liquor licenses much quicker which is expected to bring in a lot of sales.

Agility
“CESC sources special chemicals from Nalco Water India for its Budge Budge Generating Station (BBGS). The plant requested for additional stock anticipating supply disruption due to the lockdown. Pradipta ensured the required chemicals were arranged within only 4 days during the nation-wide lockdown. BBGS also required urgent supply of light diesel oil and a day's delay would result in huge loss. Pradipta arranged for getting the supply through road tankers during the lockdown within 5 days.â€
