However certain deviations have been considered with a justification for the purpose of<br />

this Petition and request the Hon’ble Commission to approve the same.<br />

2.4 Summary of Assumptions<br />

2.4.1 TANTRANSCO has premised its tariff petition while projecting its revenue requirements<br />

on the following:<br />

a. The provisional figures of FY 2011-12 have been considered for creation of baseline<br />

data against various heads.<br />

b. The relevant Judgments of Hon’ble Appellate Tribunal have been referred to while<br />

projection of some of the heads.<br />

c. Escalation factors have been considered for projecting certain expenses on a realistic<br />

basis.<br />

d. In the tariff order dated 30 th March 2012, the Hon’ble Commission has approved the<br />

figures for a whole year for each component. Since the company has started its<br />

operation from 1 st November 2010 and was in operation for 5 months only, the<br />

approved figures are re-calculated on a proportionate basis.<br />

e. The cost claimed by the appellant for the transmission activities includes the<br />

expenses of SLDC and transmission function as the ring fencing is under process and<br />

not yet been finalized.<br />
