A short assessment bill was issued to the consumer for the recovery of revenue loss based on the inspection of Audit wing who detected the light meter reading was not assessed for billing during certain period. Aggrieved by this bill, the appellant submitted the petition which was dismissed as it lacks merits. |

The respondent had issued a back assessment bill for the meter faulty period based on the audit report of the audit wing of KSEB. The appellant contended that the Limitation or Time bar under Section 56 (2) of Indian Electricity Act,2003 is applicable regarding this case and he is not liable to remit the back assessed amount. The appeal petition disposed of rejecting the contentions of the appellant. |
The consumer was issued two numbers of short assessment bills by the KSEB for the abnormalities detected in respect of two consumer Nos and the consumer has cleared the bills fully, after the Hon. High Court Order. Now the dispute is over the short assessment bills issued in continuation of the original bill consequent to an audit report. It is held that once the liability is fully paid up by the consumer, the respondent cannot extend the liability, on the same irregularity, as he is absolved from any further liabilities on that account, as per section 126(4), prevailing at that time. |
