How verification works
A consent-first path from request to reviewable result.
1
Create a purpose-led request
Choose Electricity Bill, state the reason for verification, and invite the subject or enter fixture data in sandbox.
2
Capture explicit consent
The data principal sees the requester, purpose, and check type before any live verification starts.
3
Run the verification rail
PRAMAAN evaluates document signals and match evidence while keeping sensitive values minimized.
4
Review the report
Teams receive a masked, timestamped result with consent reference, signals, and review guidance.
What PRAMAAN checks
Utility bill signals built for reviewer decision support.
Electricity bills can support address verification, but they should not be used as proof of ownership.
Consumer / bill number
Extracts consumer, account, or bill reference where visible.
Name on bill
Compares bill name with the submitted profile or declared relationship.
Service address
Extracts and normalizes the address visible on the bill.
Billing period
Checks recency and flags stale bills.
Utility provider / discom
Surfaces provider and state/discom signals for reviewer context.
OCR confidence
Flags unreadable, edited, or low-confidence files.
Why this document matters

FAQ
Electricity Bill verification questions.
Can PRAMAAN run a electricity bill check without consent?
No. Live checks require explicit consent from the data principal before processing begins.
Can I test this without real personal data?
Yes. The sandbox demo uses fixture data only and does not require real PII.
What happens on a mismatch?
PRAMAAN surfaces the mismatch as a verification signal and recommends manual review where the evidence is incomplete, stale, or inconsistent.
Is the report a legal conclusion?
No. Reports provide verification signals and consent evidence for reviewer decision support. They should not be treated as a guaranteed legal outcome.
Does an electricity bill prove property ownership?
No. It is an address signal only and should not be treated as ownership proof.
What if the bill is in someone else’s name?
The report should flag the relationship or name mismatch for reviewer context.
