A KSEB squad inspected the premises of the consumer and found that the premise was being used for commercial activities instead of domestic tariff alone and the connected load has increased substantially. The consumer was served a provisional bill for unauthorized use of electricity under sec 126 of IE Act 2003. The cause for the dispute is whether CGRF has power to adjudicate such cases and whether the AE himself has to make an inspection to assess a consumer under Section 126 of IE Act, 2003 among other things. |
The consumer has remitted the estimated amount for constructing a separate feeder from the Sub-station by laying 3 x 300 sq.mm cable and accessories for meeting a power demand of around 3000 KVA, to his Multi storied Flat complex under OYEC scheme. The dispute arose when KSEB accorded sanction to a 2nd applicant for giving power from the same Cable laid for the appellant. After giving power to the appellant, the Cable had surplus capacity and the next applicant, with a Power demand for above 1000 KVA, was required to pay less, for tapping power from the cable. The 2nd entrant was thus benefitted. The appellant argues that he needs power for his second stage expansion project. The consumer demands the ownership of the service line constructed and the Cable laid on collecting the estimated cost from him under OYEC scheme. |

The CGRF has ordered to refund the cost of meter collected from the consumer. The request to refund the cost of broken meter was disallowed by this Authority as he has sought such a relief but failed to put forward any valid contention for the same in the Appeal petition. Aggrieved by the order the consumer filed a review petition. It is stated that since the CGRF has accepted the request and ordered his demand, he refrained from further arguments before EO, even though the relief was sought in the Appeal Petition. |
