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.

The appellant is a consumer bearing consumer number 19881 under Electrical Section Udma, Kasaragode. The appellant has been issued a huge bill dated 20-11-2014 for Rs. 27,425/- for the consumption of 3260 units for the period from 22-09-2014 to 20-11-2014. The appellant objected the reading in the meter and bill and requested to test the meter. Accordingly a parallel meter installed in the premises which confirmed the correctness of the existing meter. Still unconvinced the result of the testing, the appellant requested to test the meter in an accredited laboratory. The test conducted in the TMR Division, Kannur also established the healthiness of the meter. Aggrieved by this, the appellant approached the CGRF, Kozhikode with a petition in OP No. 88/2014-15 which was dismissed with a direction to remit the amount in twelve equal instalments, on 11-03-2015. Not satisfied with the above order, the appellant filed this appeal petition before this Authority on 20-04-2015. Since the appellant has actually consumed the energy, the short assessment bill issued for the period from 21-01-2014 to 20-11-2014 is in order and the appellant is liable to remit the same. Order of CGRF is upheld. Appeal is dismissed.

The review appellant herein in P/342/2013 is running a hotel in the name of M/s Hotel Sree Aryas having electricity consumer number 6536 under Electrical Section, Kottayam Central. The premises of the review appellant was inspected by the KSEB officials on 23-05-2009 and found the connected load as 16 KW against the sanctioned load 15 KW. It was also found that the energy consumption in one phase is not recording in the meter. The review respondent has issued a short assessment bill for Rs. 1,63,802/-. Against the short assessment bill, the review appellant filed objection before the Assessing Officer who disposed the petition by enhancing the bill amount to Rs. 1,83,493/-, vide his final order dated 13-06-12. Aggrieved by this the review appellant approached the CGRF, Kottarakkara in Petition No. 833/2012. The CGRF disposed the petition by directing Board to conduct a detailed enquiry, since serious procedural irregularities and negligence on the part of Board officials in the matter. Not satisfied with the decision of the CGRF, the review appellant filed a petition before this Authority which was disposed as follows: 1. The Assessing Officer is directed to review the penal bill raised for the UAL of 1 KW, by taking into consideration the clause 51 ( 4) of KSEB T& C of Supply, which prevents the penalization for availing less than 10% variation in connected load, within 60 days of this order, with an opportunity given to consumer for hearing him. 2. Regarding the meter faulty period reassessment, the short fall in the meter recordings, due to one phase fault is determined as (592units x 12 months) 7104 units instead of 18949 units assessed by respondent and directed the respondent to revise the bill accordingly. Now the review appellant has submitted this review petition with a plea to review the second part of the decision taken in the appeal petition no. P/342/2013. Nothing is pointed out by the review appellant which escaped the notice of this Authority while disposing the appeal No. P-342/2013 dated 09-12-2013, I hold that the review petition is not maintainable and hence rejected.
