CHENNAI: Aavin, the government-owned milk supplier, has called upon its customers to make use of its online payment gateway to renew their milk cards.
The agency has decided to put an end to long queues of customers at its outlets. Aavin card holders can register their names on the agency's website and secure unique customer numbers every month as they pay for the milk supplies.
Though the facility has been in place for some time, not many customers are aware of it, said cooperative minister B V Ramana while distributing monthly cards on the outskirts of Chennai.
Since address of customers is important for obtaining Aavin cards, customers will have to upload address proof as well.
The documents which are accepted as address proof include bank passbook, passport, ration card, aadhaar card, driving license, telephone bill, LPG bill, electricity bill and voter identity card.
"Once the user registers his or her name, a unique number will be allotted and based on this they can renew their monthly cards online and pay through the gateway," said a senior Aavin official.
After payment through credit card or internet banking, the zonal office will get to know which card has been renewed online, and it will deliver the card to the booth and from the booth through the delivery boys at the doorsteps, said the official. Aavin in recent times has been breaching new records in milk procurement and sales in Chennai city and in other districts.
In Chennai and suburbs nearly 11.65 lakh litres are sold daily.
