| The appellant Sri Sajive Manjila, is an LT three phase consumer of electricity with No. 5871 under Electrical Section, Kunissery and is the Chairman of the firm, M/s Manjilas Food Tech Pvt. Ltd.

It was detected in the inspection that no manufacturing process in the premises and a mahazar was also prepared noting down the anomalies found there. Since the tariff for a mill without manufacturing process comes under LT VIIA‐commercial, a short assessment bill for of Rs. 5,23,323/‐, was prepared to recover the revenue loss occurred, due to the difference in the tariff rate between the LT VII A ‐ commercial and LT IV ‐ industrial tariff and served on the consumer.

Aggrieved by this Order, the appellant has filed the Appeal Petition before this Authority.

The appellant is also free to approach the respondent for reclassification of tariff on the basis of present activities and the respondent shall take proper action in the application under Regulation 98 of Supply Code, 2014.
