 P/076/2017 Sri Aboobacker P.J. Kozhikode 
|
|
| M/s Vennakkad Granites is a LT‐IV industrial consumer, under Electrical Section, Koduvally, Kozhikode, having consumer No. 28187. The registered connected load in the premises is 79803 Watts. The consumer is a stone crushing unit registered in the name of Sri. Aboobacker P.J., the appellant. The said service connection was effected on 19-02-2015.The Regional Audit Officer of Kerala State Electricity Board conducted inspection at Electrical Section, Koduvally during the month of November 2016, and noticed an error that the Current Transformer (CT) ratio of the metering circuit is taken as 1 instead of the multiplication factor (MF) 30. On verifying the regular energy bills issued to the consumer, it was found that the bills were issued wrongly taken as MF 1 instead of 30 from 19-02-2015 onwards. Hence a short assessment bill to recover the loss, amounting to Rs. 7,42,715/- was served to the consumer on 09-12-2016. Against this, the consumer had filed a complaint before the CGRF in OP No. 156/2016-17. This was disposed of by allowing 22 monthly equal instalments without any surcharge. Aggrieved by this order, the appellant preferred this appeal before this Authority. From the analysis done and the conclusions arrived at, which are detailed above, I take the following decisions. The order dated 29-04-2017 issued by the CGRF, Kozhikode, in Petition No. 156/2016-17 is upheld. Having concluded and decided as above, it is ordered accordingly. No order on costs. |
