EB Reporter

Titas Gas customers will get a facility to pay their bills online as the country’s largest gas distribution company is set to sign a contract today with an IT consortium to introduce modern total integrated open architectural (TIOA) system.
After its installation, 1.8 million consumers from households to largest power companies will be able to pay their bills online, without going to bank, Nowshad Islam, managing director of Titas Gas Transmission and Distribution Company Ltd, said sunday. He said the new system would take around 10 months to be installed.
At present, Titas Gas has a very old computerised data system which was installed more than 20 years ago with old software from the 80s and does not support the latest online system, said its officials.
The consumers can pay their bills through mobile operators’ point of sale (POS) system, bank booths, credit and debit cards and also from mobile banking accounts, Nowshad said.
The consumers can also apply online for new gas connection and can easily track its application and relevant file, he added.
The consortium of “Devine IT Business Land Ltd and Right Brain Solution Ltd” will execute the job at a cost of about Tk 10 crore, officials said.
