P/062/201 Sri. Dayaram, Kollam
The appellant is a commercial consumer in LT VIIB tariff having connected load of 1000 watts, vide Con. No. 6674 under Electrical Section, Cantonment, Kollam. While being so, he received an abnormal bill for Rs. 47815/‐ in 08/2016. He approached the Assistant Engineer, Cantonment with a complaint that he used to consume less and hence the disputed bill for Rs. 47815/‐ was not in tune with his consumption. Based on the complaint the meter was sent to the meter testing laboratory and the appellant has been directed to remit the bill amount as it was proved that the meter was working in good condition and the errors are within limit. Being aggrieved by this, the consumer lodged a complaint before the CGRF, Kottarakkara which was dismissed vide Order OP No. 346/2017 dated 22.04.2017. Aggrieved by this order, the consumer has filed the Appeal Petition before this Authority. From the conclusions arrived at as detailed above, I decide to quash the short assessment bill amounting to Rs. 47,815/- issued to the appellant. The respondent is directed to revise the bill by taking 120 units as consumption for the bill period from 20-06-2016 to 19-08-2016 and to issue the revised bill to the consumer within fifteen days. Having concluded and decided as above it is ordered accordingly. The appeal petition filed by the consumer is allowed as ordered and stands disposed of as such. The order of CGRF, Kozhikode in OP No. 346/2017 dated 22-04-2017 is set aside. No order on costs.
