The present system of energy billing is error prone and also time and labor consuming. Errors get introduced at every stage of energy billing like errors with electro-mechanical meters, human errors while noting down the meter reading, and errors while processing the paid bills and the due bills. The home appliances which consume more power causes an increase in the payment of excessive bills. The remedy for all these problems GPMC(GSM based power meter and control system) is developed which consist of the integration of a single phase Class 1, IEC61036 , standard compliance digital kWh power meter. It will keep track of the meter reading of each day and the reading with the user identification number send it to the user as well as to the electricity department and Electricity eBilling system associated with electricity department will keep the track of each SMS meter reading and the appropriate bill get generated at the last day of the month and the bill is forwarded to user from the server.
