The appellant applied for change of ownership in respect of a building which he purchased by the sale deed dated: 16-02-2011 from Sri Rajan Kunju and Sri Pradeep Kumar. But, due to the objections filed by Sri Pradeep Kumar, the service connection was not transferred in the appellant’s name. The appellant approached the CGRF seeking for transfer of ownership of the service connection in his name since he submitted all the requisite documents for change of ownership. According to the respondent, the change of ownership is not registered due to the dispute over the title and ownership of the property. After hearing both parties the Forum found that there was no fault or purposeful delay on the part of the respondent in transferring service connection, since there were series of litigation regarding the ownership of the building. At the same time the Forum was of the view that the right of the appellant herein for electric supply could not be delayed in the event of producing satisfactory proof of his ownership over the building. The CGRF, therefore, disposed of the petition directing the appellant herein to pursue his application for service connection on finalisation of the pending dispute regarding the ownership of the property. Aggrieved against the said order this appeal petition was filed. Respondent is directed to transfer the ownership within a period of 15 days on receipt of application along with required documents. |

The appellant is a consumer having consumer No. 5244 with LT IV tariff under Electrical Section, Nadakkavu, Kozhikode. He has been running an industry, M/s National Diesels for the last 32 years. Meanwhile he was served with a bill dated 31-03-2014 for Rs. 12,210.00 based on an inspection conducted by the Division Squad on 22-03-2014. It was alleged by the respondents that they had found a small counter where telephone recharge coupons had been sold. This counter was not connected to the power systems of the licensee. There was no additional load detected by the licensee. A site mahazar was prepared by the Sub Engineer of the KSEB. Subsequently the appellant approached the CGRF seeking to direct the respondents to quash the bill and to change the tariff to previous LT IV A. The Forum, in its order directed the respondents to reassign LT IV tariff to the appellant from 11/2014 onwards. The Forum also directed the respondents to maintain good consumer friendly relationship. But the Forum made no orders for quashing the bill issued by the respondents. Aggrieved against this order this appeal petition was filed. The respondents are directed to refund the sum of Rs.12,210.00 within a period of 30 days. |

The appellant’s establishment has two service connections with consumer Nos. 11315 and 15114 under Electrical Section, Vandiperiyar. Two short assessment bills dated: 23-11-2013 amounting to Rs. 30,647/- and Rs. 3.,173/- respectively were issued to the appellant. The appellant approached the CGRF on 01/08/2014 seeking to revise the said bills. The Forum found that the appellant already remitted the bill amounting to Rs. 3,173/- for consumer No. 15114 on 13-02-2014 without any objection. Therefore the Forum did not intervene in that matter. As far as the bill relating to consumer No. 11315 is concerned, the Forum is of the view that the assessment cannot be recovered after a span of two years. Hence the respondents were directed to revise the bill for Rs. 30,647/- by limiting the period of assessment for two years. Aggrieved against the said order, this appeal petition was filed. The period of short assessment limited to 2 years. Appeal allowed. |
