| The appellant is a domestic consumer having consumer number 11335 under Electrical Section, Chullimanoor of Nedumangad Electrical Division. The appellant was served with a bill dated 08-08-2018 amounting to Rs. 4,412.00 for bi-monthly consumption of 636 units. The appellant’s sanctioned connected load in the premises is 1380 watts. The appellant filed a complaint in the Section Office, but not redressing the complaint, the appellant approached the CGRF, Kottarakkara requesting to exempt the exorbitant amount charged. The CGRF has dismissed the Petition on finding that the bill issued by the respondent was in order and the petition was found as devoid of any merits, vide its order No. OP 115/2018 dated 04-12-2018. Aggrieved by the decision of CGRF, the appellant has submitted the Appeal petition before this Authority.
In view of the above facts, it is decided to quash the energy bills for Rs. 4,412/- and Rs. 2,391/- issued to the appellant. However, the respondent is directed to revise the two bimonthly bills for the period from 12-06-2018 to 11-10-2018 based on average consumption of 309 units i.e., by taking average consumption of previous three bimonthly spot bills from 11-12-2017 to 12-06-2018. This shall be done at any rate within 30 days from the date of receipt of this order. Any amount remitted in excess by the appellant shall be adjusted against the revised bills. The order of CGRF in OP No.115/2018 dated 04-12-2018 is set aside.
Having concluded and decided as above, it is ordered accordingly. No order as to costs. |
