| The appellant, M/s KITCO Ltd., is a Kerala State public sector Company engaged in consultancy and allied activities. The appellant has applied for HT supply of power to the extent of 130 kVA under Electrical Section, Vennala. The licensee has demanded a sum of Rs. 2,95,000.00 computed @ Rs. 2270.00/kVA as pro-rata transmission side development charges on per kVA basis from the appellant, as the proportionate cost for enhancing the capacity of Sub Station. Against this demand, the appellant had filed WP (C) 3951/2013 and the Hon’ble High Court in its interim order dated 11-02-2013 directed KSEB to effect power connection without collecting per kVA development charges and in judgment dated 27-05-2016, it was directed the appellant to approach the CGRF and accordingly the Writ Petition was disposed of. So, the appellant filed a petition before the CGRF which was disposed of vide Order No. 32/2016-17 dated 30-09-2016, with a finding that the demand raised by the respondent is correct and the appellant is bound to pay the same. Challenging the decision of the CGRF, the appellant approached this Authority by filing this appeal petition. In view of the above discussions the respondent is hereby directed to prepare a revised demand on the estimate cost of work for the capacity enhancement necessitated for giving supply to the appellant at any rate within a period of 30 days from the date of receipt of this order and the appellant shall remit the same within one month, failing which the licensee shall be entitled to recover the same. Excess remittances if any made by the appellant shall be refunded by adjustment in the monthly current charges/direct refund within a period of 3 months. The appeal filed by the appellant is admitted to the extent as ordered above. Having concluded and decided as above it is ordered accordingly. The CGRF order No. 32/2016-17 dated 30-09-2016 is set aside. No order as to costs. |
