    • 15th of every month for Cedar, Deodar, Ebony, Fern, Ginger and Hibiscus blocks
    • 18th of every month for Juniper
    • 25th of every month for Alpine & Birch block
  2. Bill Collection: Original bills are available at the block security desk, so you can pick them up anytime.
  3. Payment Options: You can pay through BESCOM’s website or use third-party apps like GPay, PhonePe, or Paytm.
  4. ASD Dues: Pay attention to the Additional Security Deposit (ASD), that is based on your average monthly bills and appears as a separate line item in the original bill, but not in the total bill amount.
  5. Power Disconnection: If the dues are not paid on time, BESCOM may disconnect the power. In that case, you’d need to clear the dues and contact Greenage helpdesk to have the power restored.

Gas

Greenage recommends only to use piped LPG gas provided to each flat from the centralized gas banks. Piped gas is certainly safer and more convenient. if you sense a gas leak in your apartment or in the common areas, immeditaely inform the helpdesk by Phone.

Internet & DTH

Greenage has Gigabit Internet with Fiber to Home (FTH) serviced by Act Fibernet, Airtel, Jio, and Tata Play. Connections upto 1Gbps bandwidth, as of Jan 2025, are avaliable in Greenage. Tata Play and Airtel also offer DTH services.

All towers in Greenage are equipped and ready for all of the Internet or DTH service providers. A flat can have one or more connections.

Once you apply for a connection from any of the service providers, they will do the installation based on your needs.

Wired connections to rooms within the flats​

Wherever possible, it is advisable to use a wired connection as they are always faster and reliable than Wi-Fi connections. For details on how to leverage the cables, consult the Greenage electricians as they are well equiped and well verse in the cable systems in all flats in Greenage. You can set-up either a Cat 5e1 or Cat 622 cables for wired connections within the home.

Wi-Fi connections to rooms within the flats​

Be aware that any Wi-Fi router that you use will have its signal limited due to the thick concrete walls in Greenage. You are advised to use Wi-Fi or LAN extenders, or invest in a Wi-Fi mesh system. The thoroughput and function of your Wi-Fi signal will depend on the types, and specs of the routers you choose.
