Two sample cases of energy bills of DS category connections where Electricity Duty (ED) is being levied but IDF has not been levied were sent to IT section to examine and to take the corrective action. W.r.t this IT office has intimated that, i. ii, iii, IT section has taken the corrective measure in billing logic “to levy IDF wherever ED is being levied”. The reason behind the nan-levy of IDF (where ED is being levied) is that DS office had selected wrong rate category “DS” instead of “DS_DPC”. Further, a list of 2178 of different categories of connections (CP-3 to 4) where wrong rate category is selected has also been sent to field offices by IT cell with the request to get it corrected. {Now “DS DPC” categories are functional instead of “DS” etc.).

Whearas in the above case only one register (i.e. KWH) has been set, causing wrong billing and financial loss to the corporation. Similarly, Due to non-recording of MDI in the SAP system due to non -maintenance of MDI register results into non levy of demand surcharge in case of demand exceeds more than sanctioned CD, This may results into financial loss to PSPCL which is a matter of grave concern.

It means if one default exist or multiple default occurs the consumer shall pay for one default only ie Rs750, . It says that if a consumer made two default in a month then he should not be levied Rs 1500 per kVA (750 x two defaults). he shall be only charged for one default ie Rs750/-. This relaxation shall be given only for one month ie 30 or 31 days as the case may be. + If he made another default in 31s or 32-4 day then Rs750/ kVA shall be charged for another month. Same rule of charging of one default only will be followed in this month also. 2. But here in the above bill as no. of days is 23 days (less than 30) demand Surcharge has been reduced proportionality. Here is a question suppose if bill is made of 35 days in that case whether in same situation demand surcharge will be enhanced proportionately. tp Spe View of undersigned! i, It is observed that generally bills are made on monthly basis.
