3.1.1 This chapter deals with the annual performance review of ARR for FY 2014-15 and

revised ARR for FY 2015-16 against as approved by the Hon’ble Commission vide MYT

order dated 29th May 2014. In order to undertake Annual Performance Review for

FY 2014-15 & Revised Annual Revenue Requirement for FY 2015-16, various

assumptions and other practical approaches have been taken into the consideration.

The same has been described in detail, while projecting each component.

3.2 Assessment of Energy Sales for 2014-15 and 2015-16

3.2.1 DHBVNL submits herewith that for the sales projections of FY 2014-15, the sales for

FY 2014-15 have been arrived at by projecting the sales of FY 2013-14 based on CAGR

for last three years with sales of FY 2012-13 as the base.

3.2.2 The sales for the previous years have been adjusted after adding the sales of Jind circle

in the sales of DHBVN. Similarly, the sales for FY 2015-16 have been projected by

applying the same CAGR over the estimated sales for FY 2014-15.

3.2.3 For agriculture, 5% growth has been considered in line with the methodology adopted

by the Hon’ble Commission.

3.2.4 It is re-iterated that the sales projections for FY 2014-15 is based on previous sales

growth trend and has been arrived after validating the effect of energy sales of Jind

Circle of the previous years.

3.2.5 Hence, keeping the above basis, DHBVN envisages the expected sales figures in

following table:

3.2.6 DHBVNL request Hon’ble Commission to approve energy sales, as per revised

projections for FY 2014-15 and FY 2015-16 tabulated above.

3.3 Energy Availability for Haryana

3.3.1 For FY 2014-15, energy availability has been projected by taking into consideration

actual power received from all stations from April 2014 to September 2014, i.e. the first

six months of the current financial year, as received from HPPC.

3.3.2 For FY 2014-15, energy availability has been projected by taking into consideration

actual power received from all stations from April 2014 to September 2014, i.e. the first

six months of the current financial year, as received from HPPC.

3.3.3 The actual data for April 2014-September 2014 was available from the HPPC. The annual

power purchase of FY 2014-15 has been projected based on this actual data as well as

the MYT trajectory. The projections were done month wise and plant wise for FY 2014-

15. The ratio of power received from each station in the first six months of the current

financial year i.e. percentage of units purchased with respect to total Long Term for first

half of 2014-15 from each station, has been considered for plant wise projections in FY

[ Dec-14] Page 18


2014-15. The short-term purchase, though not planned in the current year (FY 2014-15)

has been retained at the same quantum as already purchased in the current year till

September 2014.

3.3.4 The power purchase quantum for UHBVN and DHBVN have been divided on the same

proportion as per the approved MYT tariff order

3.3.5 The rate for power purchase for each plant have been assumed to be equal to average

rate of power purchased during first half of FY 2014-15 as received from HPPC. The intra

state transmission charges have been taken as approved by the Hon’ble Commission

vide MYT tariff order dated 29th May 2014.The interstate transmission charges of 805

Crores have been approved in the MYT tariff order dated 29th May 2014; and the same

have been bifurcated in UHBVN and DHBVN in the ratio of respective inter-state power

purchases of the two utilities in FY 2014-15.

3.3.6 For 2015-16, the approved quantum for power purchase from various stations are

considered subject to variations in case of upcoming stations that are given below:

Parbati II, HEP (H.P.)

Koldam HEP NTPC (H.P.)

Barh, Stage II, ER (NTPC)

Uri II, HEP (J&K)

Raghunathpur TPP Phase I (DVC) (West Bengal)

Koderma TPP (DVC) (West Bengal) (in Unit II)

Parbati III HEP (H.P.)(Har. share 5.38%)

3.3.7 For these stations, the power purchase has been considered 50% of the quantum that

was approved vide MYT order dated 29.5.2014, assuming that they shall start power

generation by mid of FY 2015-16.

3.3.8 Additionally For FY 2015-16, the power purchase and rate for the following stations

have been taken as equal to that projected for FY 2014-15; as they are expected to

provide power congruently in FY 2015-16 as well. Consequently, the extra power

[ Dec-14] Page 19


purchase from HPGCL has been reduced as the power from the following stations is

cheaper comparatively:

PTC GMR KAMALANGA

PTC KARCHAMWANGTOO

3.3.9 The solar power purchase from SECI that would be available to the extent of 80 MW

from 2015-16 has also been added as the same shall be available in 2015-16.

3.3.10 The rate for power purchase from each station has been calculated by increasing the

actual rate of power purchase from each station (projected in estimations for FY 2014-

15) in the same proportion as per the increase in approved power purchase cost of FY

2015-16 w.r.t. FY 2014-15 vide MYT order dated 29.5.2014.

3.3.11 The intra state transmission charges have been taken as approved by the Hon’ble

Commission vide MYT tariff order dated 29th May 2014.The interstate transmission

charges of 805 Crores have been approved in the MYT tariff order dated 29th May 2014;

and the same have been bifurcated in UHBVN and DHBVN in the ratio of respective

inter-state power purchases of the two utilities in FY 2015-16.

3.3.12 The details of power purchase quantum, amount (for within and outside state) and

other applicable charges has been tabulated below. Source wise detailed power

purchase for the state of Haryana and DHBVN has been shown under Annexure-B.

3.3.13 The Nigam has assumed that the surplus power available will be sold entirely as ‘inter-

state sales’ throughout the FY 2014-15 and FY 2015-16 at 80% of the average power

purchase cost including transmission charges for DHBVN.

3.3.14 The Nigam has assumed that the surplus power available will be sold entirely as ‘inter-

state sales’ throughout the FY 2014-15 and FY 2015-16 at 80% of the average power

purchase cost including transmission charges for DHBVN.

3.3.15 However, in practice i.e. during lower demand or surplus availability the Nigam shall

resort to boxing down of plants thereby reducing losses by just paying fixed cost for box-

down units and turning out the loss incurred in inter-state sale of power.

3.3.16 The Nigam prays that in case of any variance in the cost of new plants, the Nigam should

be allowed to recover the additional cost.

[ Dec-14] Page 21


3.3.17 The total power purchase cost from external and state sources for DHBVN has been

assessed at Rs 11,640.42 Cr. for FY 2014-15 and Rs. 12,950.93 Cr. for 2015-16 including

inter-state and intra-state transmission charges.

3.3.18 DHBVN request the Hon’ble Commission to approve total power purchase quantum and

cost for FY 2014-15 and FY 2015-16 as per above submission.

3.4 Transmission losses

3.4.1 For the FY 2014-15, the inter-state transmission losses and intra-state transmission

losses have been considered as 3.82% and 2.50% respectively. However for the FY 2015-

16, the inter-state transmission losses and intra-state transmission losses have been

considered as 3.82% and 2.48% respectively, as approved by the Commission.

3.5 Distribution losses

3.5.1 For FY 2014-15 and 2015-16, the distribution losses of DHBVN have been projected as

24.46% and 21.96% respectively based on the AT&C losses as notified by the Ministry of

Power, Government of India.

3.6 Transmission Charges

3.6.1 The intra state and interstate transmission charges for FY 2015-16 have been taken as

approved by the Hon’ble Commission vide MYT tariff order dated 29th May 2014.

3.6.2 As per the MYT Order for 2014-15 to 2016-17, the Hon’ble Commission has allowed the

transmission charges for both the Utilities Rs. 805 Cr. for FFY 2014-15 and same amount

for FY 2015-16.

3.6.3 For FY 2014-15 inter-state transmission charges and Intra state transmission charges

have been projected on the basis of the actual details available from HPPC, by

proportional estimates in FY 2013-14.

3.6.4 For FY 2014-15 inter-state transmission charges and Intra state transmission charges

have been projected on the basis of the actual details available from HPPC, by

proportional estimates in FY 2013-14.

[ Dec-14] Page 22


3.6.5 It is submitted that the amount of Rs. 805 Cr. has been divided between both of the

Discoms based on the actual power drawl ratio of individual Discoms. On the same

presumption, the detailed working of RE transmission charges for Discoms for the

period of FY 2014-15 and FY 2015-16 has been tabulated below:

3.6.6 The Nigam prays that in case of any variance in the cost of new plants, the Nigam should

be allowed to recover the additional cost.

3.7 Energy Balance

3.7.1 DHBVN has computed the energy balance based on the availability of power based on

the drawl ratio, sales forecast and transmission and distribution losses for FY 2014-15

and 2015-16.

3.7.2 The total power purchase quantum is divided into power availability within the state i.e.

(generating stations within the state) and power availability outside the state i.e.

generating stations located outside the state.

3.7.3 Distribution losses for DHBVN has been taken based on projected loss trajectory of

Ministry Of Power, in which Jind circle has been taken as a part of UHBVN. However, in

actual Jind has been transferred to DHBVN, as per the Transfer Scheme, dated, 3rd July,

2013.

3.7.4 Thus, in order to take in the effect of losses on account of Jind Circle, the loss trajectory

as specified by MoP has been re-stated by DHBVN, with due treatment of actual losses

of Jind and the re-stated figures of losses (24.48% for FY 2014-15 and 21.96% for

FY 2015-16) has been considered for energy balancing of DHBVN.

3.8 Operation & Maintenance Expanses

3.8.1 The operation and maintenance expenditure of DHBVNL comprises of Employee

Expenses, Repair & Maintenance expenses and Administration & General expenses. The

O&M expenses, as per the MYT regulations, 2012 are considered as controllable Factor

with the exception of terminal benefits. The cost of terminal benefits has been

considered as uncontrollable factor.

3.8.2 The MYT Regulations have clearly set out the methodology to calculate the O&M

expenses for the Distribution and Retail supply business for the control period, the same

is reproduced below:

The actual audited O & M expenses for the financial year preceding the base year,

subject to prudence check, shall be escalated at the escalation factor of 4% to arrive at

the O & M expenses for the base year of the control period. The O&M expenses for the

nth year of the control period shall be approved based on the formula given below.

O&Mn = (R&Mn + EMPn + A&Gn)* (1-Xn) + Terminal Liabilities

Where,

R&Mn – Repair and Maintenance Costs of the Distribution Licensee(s) for

the nth year;

EMPn – Employee Costs of the Distribution Licensee(s) for the nth year

excluding terminal liabilities;

A&Gn – Administrative and General Costs of the Distribution Licensee(s)

for the nth year;

The above components shall be computed in the following manner.

[ Dec-14] Page 26


(a) R&Mn = K * GFA * INDXn / INDXn-1

Where,

‘K’ is a constant (expressed in %) governing the relationship between

O&M costs and Gross Fixed Assets (GFA) for the nth year. The value of K

will be 1.65% for DHBVN and UHBVN respectively for the entire control

period;

‘GFA’ is the average value of the gross fixed asset of the nth year.

‘INDXn’ means the inflation factor for the nth year as defined herein

after.

(b) EMPn (excluding terminal liabilities) + A&Gn = (EMPn-1+A&Gn1)*(INDXn/ INDXn-1)

Where,

INDXn – Inflation Factor to be used for indexing the Employee Cost and

A&G cost. This will be a combination of the Consumer Price Index (CPI)

and the Wholesale Price Index (WPI) for immediately preceding year and

shall be calculated as under:

INDXn = 0.55*CPIn +0.45*WPIn.

Note 1: For the purpose of estimation, the same INDXn value shall be used for all

years of the control period. However, the Commission shall consider the actual

values of the INDXn at the end of each year during the annual performance

review exercise and true-up the employee cost and A&G expenses on account of

this variation.

Note 2: Any variation in employee cost and A&G cost on account of reasons

beyond variation in INDXn shall be subject to the incentive and penalty

framework specified in regulation 12.

[ Dec-14] Page 27


Note 3: As and when any material price index specific to power sector or a more relevant

Index becomes available, the same shall replace the Index used for working out R&M

cost.

Note 4: Terminal liabilities shall be approved as per actual expenditure incurred

by the distribution licensee or established through actuarial valuation for the

ensuing year.

Note 5: O&M expenses made on account of extraordinary situations (if any) shall

be submitted to Commission for its approval. Such expenses shall be filed

separately and will not be subjected to incentive and penalty framework. The

approved amount by the Commission shall be trued up in the annual

performance review.

Note 6: Changes in the pay scales of employees necessitated on account of pay

revision by Pay Commission or by the State Government orders shall be

considered by the Commission for true-up during the annual performance review.

(c) Xn is an efficiency factor for nth year

The Value of Xn will be determined by the Commission in the MYT order for the

control period.

3.9 Computation of Inflationary Indices

3.9.1 The computation of applicable Inflationary Indices for the projection of O&M expenses

and its sub-heads are as under:

3.14.3 The Petitioner further submits that delayed payment surcharge is collected against the

receivables from the consumers that are not received in time. As there is a delay in

receiving the revenue, the Nigam has to procure additional working capital. Therefore,

the revenue received on account of delayed payment surcharges is not income of the

Nigam, rather it’s a carrying cost recovered from consumers to pay the interest on the

increased portion of working capital which occur because of delay in receiving the

revenue. Therefore, it is requested that the revenue from delayed payment surcharge

should not be considered as income of the Nigam.

3.14.4 DHBVN prays the Hon’ble Commission to approve non-tariff income for FY 2014-15 and

FY 2015-16 as tabulated above after adjusting the income on account of delayed

payment surcharge.

capital expenditure done by DHBVN, it has estimated to undertake an expenditure of Rs.

857.39 Cr. for FY 2014-15 and Rs. 1334.22 Cr. for FY 2015-16.

3.16.2 While estimating CWIP it is assumed that 70% of the opening balance of CWIP and fresh

capital investment shall be capitalized during each year of operation.

3.16.3 Based on the estimated capital expenditure and capitalization schedule, the gross fixed

assets (GFA) are estimated for each year the Control Period. The category wise additions

a portion of Capital Expenditure planned by the Utility in order to improve the system

and to achieve further loss reduction. Disallowing RoE on the context of financial

performance deprives the Discom of an indispensable source of internal accrual which is

more important in view of the financially constrained position that makes it very difficult

for it to borrow funds from the market to fund basic capital expenditure. Moreover,

DHBVN would like to state that it has submitted an application against Review of HERC

MYT Regulations 2012 wherein it has requested the Hon’ble Commission to allow the

RoE at a rate of 14%.

loan of the year by applying the weighted average rate of interest;

(v) The generating company and the licensee shall from time to time

review their capital structure i.e. debt and equity and make every

effort to restructure the loan portfolio as long as it results in net

savings on interest. The costs associated with such re-financing shall

given so that the difference may be perused accordingly.

3.19.5 The tables below provide the details of AP sales considered by HERC and Discoms for

the FY 2011-12 and FY 2012-13 for UHBVN and DHBVN:

Table 22: AP consumption Calculations for FY 2011-12 and FY 2012-13 (in Rs. Cr.)

Gross AP consumption 4,831.10 4,060.38

3.19.6 Thus it may be seen that the difference in the sales quantum of AP sales arises owing to

the following grounds:

In case of AP Consumption as calculated by HERC for FY 2012-13, the Hon’ble

Commission has considered 100.26 MUs as AP units on other feeders of UHBVN;

which does not emerge as per the actual data received from the Energy Audit

Division of UHBVN

The Consumption of other category consumer on segregated AP feeder that

emerges to 118.26 MUs should be added to the Net AP consumption (4,058.12

MUs) after 16% losses to get the Total AP consumption of 4,176.37 MUs in

respect of UHBVN for FY 2012-13

The Consumption of other category consumer on segregated AP feeder in respect

of DHBVN for FY 2011-12 and 2012-13 has been taken before applying the losses

of 16% as the feeder remains the AP feeder only, whereas, the Hon’ble HERC has

considered subtracting the same post applying the losses of 16%.

3.19.7 Thus, the calculations of RE Subsidy based on the actual AP sale as per feeder data and

following the HERC methodology of considering 16% losses on the total consumption

recorded on AP feeders recorded by the energy meters installed on 11KV segregated AP

feeders has been placed below:

3.19.8 Hence, it is humbly prayed to Hon’ble Commission that the true up of subsidy on actual

basis be allowed as above by the Hon’ble Commission to the appellants.

3.20 True up of RE subsidy for FY 2013-14

3.20.1 The total agricultural sales approved by the Hon’ble Commission in FY 2013-14 were

8109 MUs and against the same a subsidy of Rs. 4853.40 Cr. for UHBVN and DHBVN was

allowed. This amounts to a per unit subsidy of Rs. 5.99/unit. Based on the feeder data,

the actual agricultural sales, following HERC methodology of 16% losses on AP Feeder

data emerges to 3705.09 MUs for UHBVN and 4158.06 MUs for DHBVN.

3.20.2 Therefore, for total sales of 7863.15 MUs, the eligibility of subsidy emerges to Rs.

4706.25 Cr (7863.15 MUs*Rs. 5.99 per unit). Consequently, post true up, the surplus

subsidy emerges to Rs. 147.15 Cr.

3.21 Depreciation

3.21.1 For FY 2014-15 and FY 2015-16, DHBVN has estimated depreciation charges on the basis

of estimated additions in GFA as per the capital investment plan for the FY 2014-15. The

transfer of total Capex to fixed asset has been considered as 70%. Based on the Capex

done from April 2014 to September 2014, the Capex is estimated to be Rs. 857.39 Cr. in

FY 2014-15 and Capex during FY 2015-16 has been projected Rs. 1334.22 Cr.

3.21.2 For the purpose of projecting depreciation charges for FY 2014-15, the licensee has

considered the category-wise actual depreciation rates (as a percentage of opening

balance of asset-class-wise GFA for that year).

3.21.3 It is also submitted to the Hon’ble Commission that the depreciation has been projected

considering the addition of transferred assets of Jind during FY 2013-14 at an average

rate of depreciation.

3.22 Revenue Estimations

3.22.1 The revenue calculations have been done based on the Average Billing Rate of FY 2013-

14 as per the category wise actual revenue collected and actual units sold in FY 2013-14.

The ABR achieved as above was increased by 50 paise per unit (in all categories except

agriculture and domestic) as per the increase in tariff that was done vide tariff order

dated 29th May 2014. The tariff of domestic category has been reduced by 38 paise per

unit. The details of revenue calculations have been given below:

3.22.2 It is submitted by petitioner that above computed revenue is based on the approved

tariffs and revised projections of sales, consumers and loads for respective years and

thus, the Hon’ble Commission is requested to approve the same.

3.23 Revenue from inter-state sales

3.23.1 Revenue from inter-state sales has been projected for FY 2014-15 and FY 2015-16 at 80%

of average power purchase cost including transmission charges.

3.23.2 The estimated revenue from interstate sales for FY 2014-15 and FY 2015-16 has been

worked out as below:

3.23.3 It is requested Hon’ble Commission to approve the same.

3.24 Agriculture Subsidies

3.24.1 The Hon’ble Commission is requested to consider the combined subsidy of Rs. 5284 Cr.

as approved vide tariff order dated 29.5.2014 for both the discoms, for FY 2014-15 and

the same has been calculated to be Rs. 5623 Cr. for both the discoms for FY 2015-16. The

amount of subsidy allocation for DHBVN has been taken in the proportion of projected

agriculture sales of DHBVN against the projected agriculture sales of entire state. The

detailed justification of the aforesaid methodology has been submitted in the

subsequent chapters of this Petition.

3.24.2 The subsidy requirement for the year 2015-16 after adjusting the average rate of growth

on the subsidy approved by HERC for the FY 2014-15 has been given below. The AP sales

for FY 2015-16 has been taken at 5% increase with respect to the AP sales in FY 2014-15

as has also been approved by the HERC. Moreover, the effect of increase in approved

average cost of supply by the HERC vides MYT tariff order dated 29.5.2014 has also been

3.25 Revenue from FSA

3.25.1 Revenue from FSA has been calculated for the existing FSAs (except recovery from the

quarterly FSA for power purchase in FY 2014-15). The FSA recoveries vide HERC order

dated 26 June 2012 and Automatic recovery of FSA from September 2012 (FSA for 2012-

13) have been considered in FY 2014-15 and FY 2016-17 for the entire year as the

recovery of the aforesaid FSAs have been considered to be continue over the projection

period of FRP without sunset (FRP stands approved from the state Cabinet and approved

in-principle from the Hon’ble Commission). The recovery from the FSA for FY 2014-15 has

[ Dec-14] Page 51


not been included in the revenue from FSA.

3.26 Apportionment of AP Subsidy for FY 2014-15

3.26.1 It is submitted that the total agricultural sales approved by the Hon’ble Commission in FY

2013-14 were 8109 MUs (4397 MUs of UHBVN and 3712 MUs of DHBVN).

3.26.2 It is further submitted that, the actual combined agricultural sales arrives at 7863.15

MU’s (3705 MUs for UHBVN and 4399 MUs for DHBVN) for FY 2013-14.

3.26.3 However, in the Tariff Order, vide dated 30th March, 2013; the Hon’ble Commission has

approved a consolidated/ combined subsidy amount of Rs. 4853.40 Cr. for both Discoms-

UHBVNL & DHBVNL.

3.26.4 It is submitted that vide Government of Haryana notification No- 22/4/2012-3 power

dated 03rd July 2013, the Jind Circle has been transferred from Zone- I (UHBVN) to Zone-II

(DHBVN)

3.26.5 Historically Jind circle is has considerably higher amount of AT&C losses Approx. 50%

after the transfer scheme Jind is now a part of DHBVN so for as per annual audited

account of DHBVN, Jind Circle has been accounted approximately for the period of nine

months)

3.26.6 However as per the ARR Of UHBVNL & DHBVNL for their distribution & retail supply

business under MYT Framework for the Control Period

FY 2014-15 to FY 2016-17 and Distribution and Retail Supply Tariff For FY 2014-15 dated

29th May 2014, Jind has been conceded as a part of UHBVN, However the Hon’ble

Commission has estimated normative AP sales for the Jind circle as 514 MUs.

3.26.7 It is further submitted that presently the tariff applicable for AP (Agriculture Pump set)

consumers in Haryana is currently under two categories i.e. AP metered consumers billed

on energy consumption basis and AP un–metered consumers who are currently paying a

flat rate per BHP per month. There is a huge difference between the actual CoS (Cost of

Supply) to these consumers and the applicable concessional tariff. The State Government

is providing subsidy to bridge this gap to the Discoms.

[ Dec-14] Page 52


3.26.8 It is further submitted that Hon’ble HERC issued the impugned single order dated

31.03.2012 for aggregate revenue requirement of Uttar Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam

Limited (UHBVNL) and Dakshin Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam Limited (DHBVNL) for their

distribution and retail supply business tariff for FY 2012-2013 (impugned tariff order), the

Hon’ble Commission has segregated the subsidy between the Discoms on the basis of

approved revenue gap of respective Discom.

3.26.9 The DHBVN further submits that such allocation of subsidy received from the State

Government on the basis of revenue gap instead of agricultural sales is contrary to the

provisions of the Electricity Act, 2003, National Tariff Policy and the provisions of the

Haryana Electricity Regulatory Commission (Terms and Conditions for Determination of

Wheeling Tariff and Distribution & Retail Supply Tariff) Regulations, 2008.

3.26.10 However, The DHBVN would also kind to bring to the kind notice of the Hon’ble

Commission that in the previous tariff orders passed by the Hon’ble State Commission,

it had adopted the methodology for subsidy allocation based on Agricultural sales of

respective Discom. The relevant portion of the tariff order dated 13.09.2010 for the FY

2010-11 is represented below for ready reference:-

“……….Consequently, the Commission has apportioned the State Government

subsidy between UHBVNL and DHBVNL in proportion to the projected

volume of sales to the AP consumers. Resultantly, Rs. 17559.54 million has

been considered as subsidy in the case of UHBVNL as against the

requirement of Rs. 20289.10. In the case of DHBVNL, the allocation of

subsidy is Rs. 12082.46 million as against the requirement of Rs.13960.63

million. ……...”

3.26.11 Similarly, in the tariff order for FY 2011-12 also, the Hon’ble State Commission had

apportioned the subsidy support on the basis of the projected volume of sales to the AP

consumers. The relevant paragraph of the tariff order dated 27th May 2011 for the FY

2011-12 is represented below:

“........Consequently, the Commission has apportioned the remaining amount

of State Government subsidy amounting to Rs. 29657.50 million between

UHBVNL and DHBVNL in proportion to the projected volume of sales to the

AP consumers…….”

[ Dec-14] Page 53


Emphasis added:

3.26.12 Para 8.2.1 (3) of National Tariff Policy notified by the Central Government in compliance

with Section 3 of the Electricity Act, 2003 is reproduced below for the reference:

".......Section 65 of the Act provides that no direction of the State

Government regarding grant of subsidy to consumers in the tariff

determined by the State Commission shall be operative if the payment on

account of subsidy as decided by the State Commission is not made to the

utilities and the tariff fixed by the State Commission shall be applicable from

the date of issue of orders by the Commission in this regard. The State

Commissions should ensure compliance of this provision of law to ensure

financial viability of the utilities. To ensure implementation of the provision

of the law, the State Commission should determine the tariff initially,

without considering the subsidy commitment by the State Government and

subsidised tariff shall be arrived at thereafter considering the subsidy by

the State Government for the respective categories of consumers.......”

3.26.13 Further, According to Section 65 (Provision of subsidy by State Government) of the

Electricity Act, 2003:

“...........If the State Government requires the grant of any subsidy to any

consumer or class of consumers in the tariff determined by the State

Commission under section 62, the State Government shall, notwithstanding

any direction which may be given under section 108, pay, in advance and in

such manner as may be specified, the amount to compensate the person

affected by the grant of subsidy in the manner the State Commission may

direct, as a condition for the licence or any other person concerned to

implement the subsidy provided for by the State Government..............”.

3.26.14 Therefore, it is humbly submitted that the subsidized tariff for a particular category of

consumer is determined after considering the subsidy to be provided by the State

Government. The amount that the State Government provides for subsidy should

compensate the person affected by the grant of subsidy.

[ Dec-14] Page 54


3.26.15 In continuation of above, DHBVN has worked the subsidy allocation on the based on the

approach of actual agricultural sales, as per the table below:

Table 31: Proposed Subsidy apportion for FY 2013-14

3.26.16 DHBVN submits herewith that on the basis of actual AP sales, the subsidy receivable

arrives at Rs. 2566.52 Cr. against Rs. 1460.33 Cr. as actual subsidy received in the annual

accounts of FY 2013-14 of DHBVN.

3.26.17 It is very much clear from above tabulated workings that there is a huge difference

(approximate Rs. 1106.19 Cr.) between the subsidies received in real and to be received

for provided supply to agricultural consumers of DHBVN.

3.26.18 In the light of above submissions, the DHBVN prays to Hon’ble Commission to allocate

Agriculture (AP) subsidy for FY 2013-14 between two of Discoms (DHBVN & UHBVN)

based on actual Agriculture (AP) sales, which would be justified/ realistic approach to

bridge the financial gap of DHBVNL to provide supply to AP consumers at subsidised tariff

as well as pass such order(s) and or direction(s) for upcoming years, which the Hon’ble

Commission may deem fit and proper in the facts and circumstances described above.

However, DHBVNL also describing the steps has been taken to meet its RPO mandate as

follows:

(A) Solar RPO:

HPPC has signed Power Sale Agreement (PSA) with Solar Energy Corporation of India

(SECI) on 22.8.2014 for purchase of 80 MW of solar power at per unit price of Rs.

5.5/Kwh for 25 years. Considering 19% PLF, HPPC will get 133 MUs in a year.

In addition to above, HPPC has floated NIT for purchase of 50 MW of solar power

whose date of opening has been fixed as 13.10.2014. With this power available, HPPC

will get 83 MUs of solar power in a year.

plant is likely to be commissioned by 31.10.2014. With it 34 MU’s of energy would be

generated from November onwards till March 2015.

Thus, against the cumulative shortfall of 143 MU’s from FY 2011-12 to FY 2014-15, HPPC will

be almost close to meet the RPO target.

(B) Non-Solar RPO:

HPPC has floated NIT for purchase of 100 MW of non-solar power, whose date of

opening has been fixed at 17.10.2014. Considering 50% PLF, HPPC will get 438 MU’s

Chapter 8. Other Submission to the Hon’ble Commission

8.1 Practical issue of Bulk-supply Domestic Tariff

8.1.1 The Slab-wise tariff depending upon consumption per flat/dwelling unit has been made

applicable for Bulk Domestic Supply in relevant tariff order issued by Hon’ble

Commission w.e.f. 1.04.2013. The implementation of new tariff is not practical as

number of dwelling units varies month on month basis and it is not possible to verify the

number of dwelling units by the DISCOM’s field staff and the figures intimated by

builders/ RWAs is being relied upon. Due to operational constraints, the Nigam is

compelled to charge highest slab stipulated in the relevant Tariff order issued by

Hon’ble Commission for FY 2013-14 & onwards.

8.1.2 In this context, it is pertinent to mention here that earlier only single tariff was

stipulated in the tariff order issued by Hon’ble Commission since the introduction of

above category of consumers till FY 2012-13.

8.1.3 Moreover, it is worthwhile to mention here that the occupant of flats of Group Housing

Societies /Cooperative Societies are higher end consumers and generally located in big

cities. Therefore it would be appropriate if the tariff of bulk domestic supply is kept at

par with the highest tariff prescribed by Hon’ble Commission for Domestic Category.

However, it is further submitted that since the Operation & Maintenance of internal

electrical system is carried out by developers on their own and character of supply is at

11kV level or higher voltage level, suitable tariff as deemed fit may be considered.

8.2 Additional clarifications to be sought from the Hon’ble Commission regarding Tariff

Structure

8.2.1 In reference to Sr. No. 11 of table 4.14 of Tariff order for FY 2014-15. The Hon’ble

Commission is requested to clarify whether the energy charges for Bulk supply (LT) in

KVAH is compulsory or optional. In case it is optional then KWH rates be specified. It is

pertinent to mention here that the Bulk Supply (LT) category is not mentioned at Sr. No.

2 in the note given below table 4.14 where the categories on which KVAH billing is

applicable is specified

[ Dec-14] Page 72


8.2.2 In reference to Sr. No. 11 of table 4.14 of the said order, the Hon’ble Commission is

requested to clarify whether the rate of fixed charges in KW or KVA is to be kept the

same for Bulk supply at 11 KV voltage level and above.

8.2.3 The Hon’ble Commission is requested to clarify the procedure for levy of fixed charges

on LT industrial consumers (defied at Sr. No. 4 below table 4.14 of the order) with

illustration for meters with or without MDI facility. In case where MDI facility is available

in case of MMC billing, the Hon’ble Commission is requested to clarify whether fixed

charges are to be recovered additionally or same is covered in MMC.

8.2.4 The Hon’ble Commission is requested to refer to LT and HT Industrial category under

schedule of Tariff for FY-2013-14:- If the first month consumption of any industrial

consumer who has been allowed temporary disconnection exceeds the minimum

charges @ Rs.220 per kW or part thereof of the connected load and Rs.400 per KVA or

part thereof of the contract demand for LT & HT Industry, respectively then the facility

extended to the consumer is to be continued or withdrawn.

8.2.5 The tariff to be charged for building used partly or exclusively for PG (Paying Guest)

purposes may be defined by the Hon’ble Commission

8.2.6 The tariff for schools i.e. Government School & Colleges and private school with and

without hostel facility may be defined by the Hon’ble Commission

8.2.7 The Petitioner humbly submits that a surcharge of Rs 0.20 per unit is imposed on

1. Sources of Material

DHBVN/UHBVN undertakes material procurement through various media as per its

requirement to execute various projects. The pre-dispatch and post-dispatch quality

inspections for the following three major categories are required:-

a) Material directly procured by Nigam : MM Department

b) Material procured under the turnkey contracts : PD&C Department

c) Material procured under turnkey contracts : Field Offices

Apart from pre-dispatch quality inspection, the measurement and workmanship of erected

material is also essential in the following cases:-

1) Turnkey execution of the contract by PD&C and field offices

2) Work executed departmentally

3) Work got executed by prospective consumers through private contractors

The Material is required to be inspected under all the three heads as mentioned above to

ensure proper quality. The material shall be inspected as per the provisions of relevant

IS/IEC and specifications of the Nigam which should necessarily be referred to during

inspection and it shall be ensured that the test results are in accordance with the

Standards/Specifications.

Hereunder, a process flow is laid down for inspection of the material being procured by the

Nigam to ensure effective quality checks.

Large number of items required for day to day maintenance of Low Distribution system (not

enlisted against centrally procured items) are being procured locally by field offices as per

provision in Delegation of Power (DOP). Since these items are procured in smaller numbers

at a time, (though the total quantity becomes sizeable) as such it become necessary to

procure these items on central level as there is no proper procedure to check & ensure the

price & quality of the material. It would be appropriate that items of regular use required in

sizeable quantity may be procured by MM for the entire utility.

2. Material Quality Assurance

This includes the material which is:

o Procured directly by the Nigam through MM department.

[ Dec-14] Page 88


o Supplied to the Nigam under turnkey contracts i.e. supply, erection and

commissioning of new 33kV sub-stations, replacement of defective equipments,

bifurcation of feeders, erection of new LD system, release of tubewell connections

or any other project etc. These projects are mainly dealt by PD&C department in

DHBVN/UHBVN and also by field offices.

2.1. Submission of Quality Assurance Procedure

The Vendor / Contractor at the time of submission of the drawings for approval from

DHBVN/UHBVN is also required to submit a Quality Assurance Procedure (QAP) of the

materials to be supplied for review and approval. In this QAP, the vendor / contractor

shall clearly indicate the quality measures being taken by the manufacturer to maintain

the quality of the finished product. The drawings/QAP once approved shall not be

required to be submitted for approval again.

QAP will indicate the following details:-

i) Tests being performed on the raw material purchased by manufacturer for

manufacturing of the finished product.

ii) Tests being conducted during manufacturing of the product (In process testing).

iii) Tests which shall be done on the finished product at the time of pre-dispatch

inspection.

iv) Test results assured by the vendor.

v) Tests procedure followed for the inspection with full details of test setup etc.

The Inspection shall be carried out on the basis of the approved QAP. All the details

provided by the vendor / contractor shall be verified by Nigam / Third Party during the

inspection and if any deviation is found from the approved documents, it will be noted

in the inspection report.

2.2. Inspection call raised by Vendor / Contractor
