| The appellant is running an Ice Plant bearing consumer No. 1590 under Electrical Section, West Hill. According to him, he replaced the Current Transformers of his meter with new ones, when he was informed by the APTS that the previous CTs had been lacking in capacity. Subsequently the respondents issued a short assessment bill amounting to Rs. 1,34,653/-. The CTs were first installed when the capacity of the plant was 46 kW. The same was continued to be used even after the capacity of the Ice Plant was increased from 46 kW to 82 kW. According to the appellant, no official of KSEB who conducted periodical inspection ever recorded any infirmity on the functioning of the CTs. The CTs were said to have been installed at the expense of the appellant. The appellant approached the CGRF seeking to withdraw the short assessment bill. The Forum found that the contention of the appellant was genuine and justifiable. Setting aside the short assessment bill amounting to Rs. 1,34,653/- the Forum, in its order, directed the respondents to issue fresh bill after finding the actual period of fault of the CT with the split up details. But the respondent issued revised bill for an amount of Rs. 1,79,050/- even without considering the order issued by the Forum. Challenging the above bill for an amount higher than the original bill amount, this appeal petition was filed. The short assessment bill issued for Rs. 1,79,050/- is set aside. CGRF order modified. |
