for the year 2003-04 for the reasons stated in the order, the
Hon'ble Commission, in exercise of powers conferred upon it,
decided to and passed the aforesaid interim order, upon consideration
of the balance of convenience and inconvenience and to protect
the interest of both the consumers and the utility.

will be an ad-hoc increase of Re. 0.06 (Paise Six) per Kwh
for the year 2003-04 over the rates fixed by the Commission
for the year 2002-03.

charges, rebates, penalty, incentives etc. as presently applicable.

pilferage/theft of power. All the other existing terms and
conditions as presently applicable remain unchanged except
to the extent specifically amended by this order.
- The
