| The appellant is a Low Tension three phase consumer with consumer number 89 under Electrical Section, Fort Kochi. The service connection stands registered in the name of Sri Augustine Joseph with a connected load of 33265 watts. On 20-11-2012, an APTS inspection was conducted in the appellant’s premises and detected that the wiring in the CT meter box was damaged and hence the meter was not recording the actual consumption by making voltage fluctuations. Consequent upon the inspection, a short assessment bill dated 05-03-2013 for Rs. 28,841/- was issued to the appellant for the unaccounted consumption during 11/2012 and 12/2012. Aggrieved against this, the appellant filed a petition before the Hon’ble High Court with W.P. (C) No. 9809/2013 which was adjudicated directing the Assistant Engineer, Electrical Section, Fort Kochi to hear the matter and dispose the petition. Accordingly the Assistant Engineer heard the appellant and confirmed the bill. Dissatisfied with the decision, the appellant approached the Deputy Chief Engineer, Electrical Circle, Perumbavoor who in turn directed the Executive Engineer, Electrical Division, Mattancherry to examine the matter. But the Executive Engineer simply ratified the orders passed by the Assistant Engineer without adverting to any of the contentions made by the appellant in the said appeal. Hence the appellant filed a complaint before the CGRF, Ernakulam which was disposed with a finding that 1. The short assessment bill dated: 05/03/2013 is in order. 2. The respondents are directed to take action against the officers who delayed the rectification of the anomalies in the meter. Aggrieved against the order, the appellant has submitted this appeal petition before this Authority. Order of CGRF set aside. The respondent is directed to revise the bill taking the average consumption for a previous period of 6 months from 10/2012 after deducting the amount already remitted. |
