History

The Lahore Electric Supply Company (LESCO) was established in February 1912 by industrialist Lala Harkishen Lal with an initial capital of Rs 5 lakh.[1] Lala Harkishen Lal also served as its first chairman. At that time, it was based in McLeod-Cooper Road, Lahore.[1] In its early years, LESCO expanded its services to 12 towns in various provinces such as the Central Provinces, the United Provinces, Sindh, and the North-West Frontier Province, making it the largest power generator outside the Government Electric Supply Branch by 1941.[1] However, starting from a conflict with the Punjab Government in May 1934, the company faced a series of challenges.[1] The implementation of the Punjab Electricity (Emergency Powers) Act, 1941, further contributed to its decline.[1]

By 1942, LESCO had relinquished all its licenses except for the one in Lahore.[1]
