Sri Paulachan P.P. is a consumer of electricity of Electrical Section, Kanjoor with Consumer No. 1157479007722 since 04-10-2011 having a connected load of 73 kW and a contract demand of 80 kVA under LT IV ToD tariff. He is running a firm in the name and style of “M/s Penta Pack” in the Mini Industrial Estate, Kanjoor. An inspection was conducted in the premises by the Sub Engineer in the presence of the APTS unit Ernakulam KSEB on 28/10/2017 and detected that one phase of the CT meter was not recording consumption due to the failure of current from the current transformer (CT). Subsequent to the inspection, a provisional demand amounting to Rs. 4,19,344/- was issued to the appellant. The Assessing Officer after the personal hearing denied all objections raised by the appellant and directed to remit the assessed amount vide proceedings dated 10/11/2017. Aggrieved by the decision of the Assistant Engineer, the appellant had filed petition before the CGRF Ernakulum vide OP No. 84/2017-18. From the findings and conclusions arrived at as detailed above, I decide to set aside the short assessment bill amounting to Rs. 4,19,344/- issued to the appellant. The respondent is directed to revise the bills for the consumption for the period from 9-6-2017 to 10/2017 by taking the average consumption of 03/2017, 04/2017 and 05/2017. Accordingly the respondent shall raise a bill for the meter faulty period and issue the revised bill to the consumer within fifteen days. The appellant is also eligible for installments, if requested for, and the respondent shall issue the same. The consumer shall pay the whole amount or the 1st installment within 30 days of the revised bill date. The subsequent installments will bear interest from 30th day of the bill issued to the day of payment. No interest or surcharge is payable by the consumer for the Petition and Appeal pending period before the CGRF and this Authority up to 30th day of the revised bill date. 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.
