Bharat Feeds and Extractions Limited (engaged in manufacturing cattle feed and poultry feed )
challenged the Madhya Pradesh Electricity Regulatory Commission's order, seeking reinstatement of
its tariff category , quashing of demand notice from MP Discom, and bill revision, with the Tribunal
later invalidating the bills and demand notice, setting aside the Commission's order, and allowing the
discom to take fresh action following principles of natural justice as the agreement between Bharat
Feeds and Extractions Limited and MP Discom needs to be amended to change the Tariff Category of
Bharat Feeds and Extractions Limited.
