UPCL recorded power losses of about 78 to 80 million units across 11 Kumaon divisions over one year, with Haldwani Town reporting the highest loss rate at 17%. Officials have linked part of the loss to technical faults and the remainder to suspected electricity theft, while feeder-level monitoring and smart meters are planned.
