Shillong: The Meghalaya cabinet on Thursday cleared amendments to the state excise rules, a decision projected to boost revenue by nearly Rs. 90 crore annually.

Chief Minister Conrad K. Sangma said the changes would align Meghalaya’s pricing structure with that of neighbouring states, making the market more competitive while enhancing revenue collection.

Alongside the excise reforms, the cabinet accepted the findings of an independent inquiry into the functioning of Meghalaya Energy Corporation Limited (MeECL).

The report, which examined issues of procurement, AT&C losses, and human resource management, will be uploaded on the government’s website for public access.

Sangma said the power department has been directed to implement the recommendations in a phased manner.

Power Minister A.T. Mondal added that financial closure of central power schemes including Saubhagya, DDUGJY and additional infrastructure projects had also been approved after extensive verification by MePDCL.

The cabinet further cleared amendments to the Meghalaya Electronics Processes Rules, 2025, terming them as compliance-related adjustments to bring state provisions in line with central regulations.

In other key decisions, the cabinet appointed former chief secretary D.P. Wahlang as chairperson of the Meghalaya State Food Commission, with Dr. Mihshwa Tyngkan as member.
