 P/108/2015 - Sri. A.N. Sethumadhavan, Palakkad 
|
|
| The appellant Sri A.N. Sethumadhavan was already granted service connection with consumer no. 20155 under LT V tariff by the Assistant Engineer, Electrical Section, Sultanpet. The appellant had remitted an amount of Rs. 400/- as security deposit on 09-03-2010. It is alleged that the appellant is eligible for getting the agriculture service connection at free of cost as per the prevailing rules. But the respondent has not effected service connection due to difficulty in constructing the overhead line since the area surrounding the proposed service connection was water logged. Since the respondent has not turned up to issue the pending service connection, the appellant submitted a request on 13-01-2012 for the same. On 02-03-13, the appellant was informed that the service connection could be effected only after remitting the estimated cost of work as per the revised guidelines for effecting service connection. Aggrieved by this, the appellant approached the CGRF, Kozhikode with a petition in OP No. 98/2014-15 which was disposed on 05-08-2013 directing the respondent to effect service connection after collecting the OYEC charges from the appellant. Not satisfied with the above order, the appellant filed this appeal petition before this Authority on 09-12-14. Since the appellant is a registered consumer as on 09-03-2010, he is eligible for getting service connection at free of cost as per the prevailing rules. Hence it is decided to refund the amount of Rs. 13,250.00 along with interest at any rate within 30 days from the date of receipt of this order. Appeal is admitted. CGRF order is set aside. |

| The appellants in this petition are the Secretary and President of Perungottappan Kshetra Bharana Samithi Puthoor, Kottarakkara, Kollam. The Kshetra Bharana Samithi constructed a building having no KP.VIII/1562 in the property belonging to the temple in resurvey no. 93/12 and obtained electric connection with consumer no.16492 under Electrical Section, Puthoor. Later this service connection was dismantled in pursuance of an order dated 31-12-2010 issued by the CGRF in OP No.591/2010 filed by one Sri Vijayakumar. The appellant approached the CGRF against the orders issued in OP No. 591/2010 for disconnection of consumer no. 16492 and the CGRF has ordered to maintain status quo in view of the pending civil suit No. AS No. 26/2014 and appeal before Tribunal, vide OP No. 606/2011 dated 26-03-2011. Disregarding the status quo order, the respondent had provided service connection in the same disputed building with consumer no. 18060, on submission of application by Sri. Vijayakumar, Chittedathuveedu, Mylakulam, Puthoor. Aggrieved by this, the appellant approached the CGRF, Kottarakkara with a petition in OP No.1293/2014 which was dismissed due to lack of merit and evidences, vide order dated 29-01-2015. Not satisfied with the above order, the appellant filed this appeal petition before this Authority on 02-03-2015. In view of the pendency of Civil disputes with respect to the ownership, it is not proper for this Authority to make any authoritative decisions in this regard. The appellant is at liberty to approach this Authority or any appropriate Forum under the provisions in the Electricity Act, 2003 after settling the civil disputes if so advised. Appeal is rejected. |
| P/107/2015 - Fr. Thomas Vaikathuparambil, Lisie Hospital, Ernakulam
|
|
| The appellant is the Director of Lisie Hospital, Ernakulam and a consumer having a high tension electric connection with consumer code 9/837 under Electrical Section, Kaloor. The original contract demand of the HT connection of the appellant is 750 KVA. The appellant had applied for enhancement of additional load of 750 KVA on 04-12-2012 along with application fee and advance amount. The work was proposed to be executed by the appellant under the supervision of KSEB. The respondent had directed the appellant to remit Rs. 55,531/- towards supervision charges for the works and the appellant remitted the amount on 27-03-2013. Meanwhile, the appellant had furnished an undertaking as directed by the respondent. On 29-05-2014, the respondents issued a demand notice to the appellant for Rs. 20,25,000/- towards the unconnected minimum charges for the period from 27-07-13 to 31-03-14 which was remitted by the appellant on 31-05-2014. Aggrieved by this, the appellant approached the CGRF praying to set aside the UCM charges and to refund the amount. The Forum, in its order dated 27-03-2015 in Petition No. CGRF-CR/Comp.139/2014-15/12, dismissed the petition as it is found devoid of any merit. Aggrieved against the said order, this appeal petition is filed. There is no ground for collecting an amount of Rs. 20,25,000.00 towards the UCM charges from the appellant. Since the appellant had already remitted the amount, the respondent is directed to refund the amount with interest at any rate within 30 days from the date of receipt of this order. CGRF order is set aside. Appeal is admitted. |
