You go to the BESCOM office. Firstly, there is nobody to tell you what exactly is the process. You are always asked to go ********** a person. That person will get it moving only if you pay Rs.100. Then there is an "inspection" by AE/EE. It is a sham, you need to take him and he will raise some stupid objection. Things like this house has an extra connection, You need to surrender, if you dont surrender, you are violating laws, etc. You then tell him that ok, let us surrender. Then, he comes back and says, "Sir, you might need this when you build a new floor, why surrender now and then come for a new connection later on which costs you upwards of Rs.10K. So pay me Rs. 2K now and then we will provide a no objection certificate!"
