Bank Solvency Certificate for Electrical Licensing: ₹25 Lakhs (Class A) vs ₹5 Lakhs (Class B) Norms

Securing a Bank Solvency Certificate for Electrical Contractor Licensing

To ensure that only financially sound enterprises capable of fulfilling contractual obligations and indemnifying power utilities against electrical accidents are licensed, the Maharashtra Licensing Board makes the Bank Solvency Certificate a mandatory statutory prerequisite. A contractor cannot submit an application on the IED portal without this authenticated bank document.

The solvency certificate certifies that the contractor is financially sound up to the specified statutory sum based on audited account balances, immovable property values, or fixed deposit liens. The prescribed statutory solvency limits are ₹25 Lakhs for a Class A Contractor License and ₹5 Lakhs for a Class B Contractor License.
