This appeal petition was filed by Mr. Cheriyan T.C. Thomas, Treasurer, Alzheimer’s & Related Disorders Society of India, in connection with the Tariff change of connection in the consumer no. 1156813010211. This connection is in the name Smt. Shilaja which was connected on 07/08/2002. This connection was a 3-phase connection with Tariff LT 1A, to Smt. Shilaja, Thandathil House, Ramavarmapuram with a registered load of 7.236 kw. The Tariff was changed to LT VIIA commercial with effect from 26/07/2017 as per the request of the consumer. The consumer submitted application to the licensee stating that the Alzheimer’s & Related Disorder Society of India nis functioning from this building and connected load was revised to 5.036 kw and requested to change the Tariff to LT VI D. The tariff changed to LT VI D ON 14/08/2019. The connection is still in the name of Smt. Shilaja. The tariff VI D is applicable only to old age homes where no charges are levied for boarding and lodging of inmates. During the inspection of APTS, Thrissur unit on 16/01/2023, it was observed the inmates were admitted on charging an advance fee and monthly fee. The copy of the receipt issued to an inmate was also produced along with the statement of fact. Then the tariff applicable should be LT VI B not LT VID. A short assessment for Rs. 2,03,619/- was prepared due to the wrong tariff application. The petitioner is still claiming that they should come under LT VID. The petition was filed to CGRF and CGRF issued their order dated 23/06/2023. This petition was filed as appeal to the order of CGRF. |
