P/049/2017 Sri. Muhammed Farookn Thiruvananthapuram
The appellant, Con.No.25667 is a consumer under Electrical Section, Kadakkal. It is a single phase service connection with registered connected load of 2800 watts and the assigned tariff is LT VII A. On 04-11-2016, KSEBL served a demand notice for Rs.23690/‐ towards the recovery of revenue loss due to meter not functioning correctly for the period from 05/2014 to 01/2015, based on an Audit report of the Internal Audit Wing of the licensee. Aggrieved by the bill, the consumer preferred a petition before the CGRF, Kottarakkara which was partly allowed by quashing the impugned bill dated 4/11/2016 for Rs.23690/- and directing the respondent to revise the bill for the meter faulty period of two billing cycles from 12/2014 to 01/2015 based on the average consumption of succeeding three billing cycles after the meter replacement vide Order OP No. 313/2016 dated 14-03-2017. Being aggrieved by the said order, the appellant has submitted this Appeal Petition before this Authority on 27/04/2017. From the analysis done and the conclusions arrived at, which are detailed above, I take the following decisions. 1. The order dated 14-03-2017 issued by the CGRF, Kottarakkara, in Op No. 313/2016 is set aside. 2. The revised short assessment bill for Rs.17266/- is quashed. The respondent is directed to reassess the bill based on the average consumption of 239 units for billing from 04/03/14 to 03/07/2014. 3. The respondent is directed to revise the bill as decided above and shall issue to the consumer with thirty days time (due date) given for making the payment. 4. The request of the appellant for tariff change from LT VIIA to LT 1 A is rejected. Having concluded and decided as above, it is ordered accordingly. No order on costs.
