Shahbaaz Husain for Precinct Legal, made submissions for Review/modification/amendment of the Tariff Order dated 27.03.2025 passed by the Commission placing reliance on Sections 62(4), 94(2), 94(1) (f) read with Regulation 8 of the KERC (General and Conduct of Proceedings) Regulations, 2000 to reduce the Tariff determined under LT-4(a) category and prays to admit the petition. The Learned Advocate General made submissions to reduce the Tariff determined under LT -4(a) category and increase the tariff for other category like industry and Commercial. Commission heard the learned Advocate General, noted the submissions, perused the petition with prayer and noted that no comprehensive proposal with sufficient grounds is forthcoming in the present petition. It is seen that the main prayer prays for reduction in Tariff for LT-4(a) category only, whereas the interim relief prays for staying the entire Tariff Order. At this stage learned Advocate General fairly submitted that interim relief sought cannot cross the boundaries of the main relief sought and as such there is a need to make necessary amendment to the petition to bring more clarity and prays for time till 02.05.2025 to file appropriate amendment application. Commission granted time pending decision on maintainability and admission of the petition. Call on 06.05.2025 at 11.00am.
