RDSS Compliance

Phase 1: 100% RDSS-Compliant | Rev 2

01 Compliance Overview

The MDM Platform is designed to be fully compliant with all applicable Indian smart metering regulations and standards:

RDSS Compliant 100% Local Content BIS/IS Standards AMISP Framework SERC Reporting

⚠ Important: January 2025 Local Content Mandate

As per government directive, from January 1, 2025, 100% local content is mandatory for key software components including:

  • Meter Data Management (MDM) systems
  • Head End System (HES) software
  • Related AMI software components

Our MDM platform is developed entirely in India by Indian engineers, ensuring 100% compliance with local content requirements.

02 RDSS Compliance Matrix

Compliance with Revamped Distribution Sector Scheme (RDSS) requirements:

RDSS Requirement Phase 1 Capability Status
CORE MDM FUNCTIONS
Meter Data Collection Real-time and scheduled data collection from HES via secure APIs
VEE Processing Validation, Estimation, Editing - missing interval, zero value, spike, static value, sum check
Interval Data (15/30 min) Time series storage and processing for 15/30 minute intervals (96 reads/day)
Billing Data Integration Validated data export to billing system, TOU billing support, billing determinants
Event Management Tamper events, outage detection, communication failure, power quality events
Load Trend Analysis Historical load patterns, peak demand tracking, consumption trends
AT&C Loss Calculation Rule-based aggregate Technical & Commercial loss computation
Tamper Detection Meter tamper alerts (cover open, magnetic, CT bypass) from HES events
Multi-tenancy Isolated data per DISCOM with role-based access control
Regulatory Reporting Pre-built RDSS/SERC compliant report formats (50+ reports)
Data Retention Configurable retention (3-7 years as per DISCOM requirement)
Scalability Designed for 2+ million meters per instance
CONSUMER ENGAGEMENT (AMISP SBD REQUIRED)
Consumer Portal Web portal for usage visibility, bill view, payment history, service requests
Consumer Mobile App iOS & Android apps with real-time consumption tracking
Prepaid Recharge Balance check, recharge via UPI/cards/net banking, low balance alerts
Postpaid Bill Payment Online bill payment via Razorpay/PayU - UPI, cards, net banking
Push Notifications Bill reminders, low balance SMS, payment confirmations, outage alerts
Outage Notifications Planned/unplanned outage alerts with ETA, restoration notifications
Usage Historical Graphs Daily, weekly, monthly usage charts for consumer budgeting
HES INTEGRATION
HES Data Ingestion Standardized APIs for meter data from HPL HES (REST/MQTT)
Command Interface Connect/disconnect, on-demand read via HES command interface
Event Forwarding Real-time event and alarm forwarding from HES to MDM

✓ Phase 1: 100% RDSS Compliance

All mandatory RDSS/AMISP SBD requirements for MDM and consumer engagement are included in Phase 1. This includes the consumer portal/app which is explicitly required in the AMISP Standard Bidding Document (SBD) for smart metering projects.

Phase 2: Advanced AI Analytics (Over & Above RDSS)

The following capabilities go beyond RDSS requirements and are part of Phase 2 - FluxAI:

  • AI-powered Load Forecasting (ML models)
  • AI Anomaly Detection
  • AI Theft Identification & Pattern Recognition
  • Predictive Maintenance
  • Consumer Segmentation & Clustering

Phase 2 is a separate future engagement after Phase 1 completion.
