State Reports (Vol.-III)
Study on `Impact of Restructuring of SEBs’
Limited (PGCIL). The Secretary and the Member (Finance) of the erstwhile
APSEB have been inducted to the positions of CMD and Director (Finance)
respectively in the board of directors of APTRANSCO. All other directors
appointed are from engineering background with experience in APSEB.
Subsequently, the Board has been further expanded with the induction of two
joint managing directors, one for HR and administration (from Indian
Administrative Service) and the other for vigilance and security (from Indian
Police Service).
With the creation of four DISCOMs certain changes have been made in the
composition of board of directors of APTRANSCO. The three positions of
Director (Distribution) have been abolished and the incumbents posted as MDs
of three DISCOMs. The Director (Technical) of APTRANSCO was posted as
MD of the fourth DISCOM. The MDs of the DISCOMs were later made CMDs
of the same.
The structure of the APTRANSCO management board has been further altered.
At present, Principal Secretary (Energy) and Secretary (Finance) of the State
Government are part-time directors in the board of APTRANSCO.
3.1.3 Structure of DISCOMs
DISCOMs were created as subsidiaries of APTRANSCO in 2001. Initially, the
companies started functioning with only one top-level executive, i.e., the
managing director. The CMD of APTRANSCO was Chairman of all the four
DISCOMs. The DISCOMs have later become autonomous and their Boards
were reconstituted with the induction of whole-time directors and redesignating
the managing director (MD) as chairman and managing director
(CMD). The top-level organisational structure of the DISCOMs is indicated
below:
