Public hearing by DERC on the issue of revision of power tariff

East Delhi RWAs Joint Front was today invited by DERC to participate in Public Hearing. Mr. B S Vohra, Mr Sandeep Kapoor & Mr K K Ghei, participated in the public hearing & raised various issues.

Mr Vohra specifically raised the issue of  inconsistency of the figures as below :

Please refer the Annexure 9 on the bsesdelhi.com. On page number 10, paragraph 5 says that, “It is pertinent to note that while in the corresponding paragraph the Chairman has alleged that after the prudence check the actual trued up figures shows a revenue surplus of around Rs. 75 Crores as against a deficit of Rs. 606 Crores claimed by the DISCOMS, on the other hand at paragraph G (ix) at page 12 of the advice, the Chairman has stated that the DISCOMs had claimed a gap of Rs. 606 Crores which, after the prudence check was found to be a surplus of Rs. 25 Crores. This inconsistency in the figures provided in the advice further puts to question the veracity of the statement made in the advice and the conclusions arrived therefrom.”. It continues saying that, “ without prejudice to the above, assuming but not admitting that the said figures are correct, it is submitted that…………”

Therefore, it was requested to DERC to opt the CAG Audit as only that Audit can lead us to a proper direction. Hence we should wait for the Audit & till than there should be no UPWARD REVISION in the Power Tariff.
