Tariff Petition 2008-09 to 2010-11 - WBSEDCL

TARIFF PETITION- 2008-09,2009-10 & 2010-1115) Consequent upon provision of a separate tariff for single point supply to bulk cooperativesat high/medium voltage in the tariff order for the year 2007-08, anattempt was made to introduce single point supply at high voltage to the HousingComplexes/Bulk Co-operatives. But the said move is not being accepted by mostof the Housing Developers and most of the developers have been insistingindividual supply to the dweller in the Housing Estate on WBSEDCL. In thatcontext it is felt that separate tariff for single point supply to HousingComplexes/Bulk Co-operatives can hardly be implemented by WBSEDCL inspiteof the fact that the said tariff is lower than the high voltage domestic tariff S(d)incorporated in the tariff order. To avoid the difficulty being faced by WBSEDCL asmentioned above it is proposed that the single point supply at high voltage to theHousing Complexes/Bulk Co-operative shall be made mandatory for any Cooperativeshaving more than 24 flats. In the event it is considered by the Hon’bleCommission that the tariff for single point supply at high voltage to the BulkHousing Co-operatives/Society as incorporated in the tariff order for the year2007-08 shall be kept optional, Hon’ble Commission may kindly evolve a suitablemechanism so that techno commercial loss associated therewith is suitablycompensated. In the event supply of power at high voltage at single point to theBulk Housing Complexes/Bulk Co-operative Societies is kept optional by theHon’ble Commission it is proposed to fix the monthly minimum charge payable byindividual consumer at the Housing Complex/Bulk Co-operatives at Rs. 400/- permonth per K,W. of the sanctioned load as applicable to high voltage domesticconsumers in terms of tariff order of the Hon’ble Commission for the year 2007-08.West Bengal State Electricity Distribution Company Ltd. 51
