Section 41. The consumption so assessed as per L x F x D x H formula and after deducting the units already billed/to be billed up to the date of inspection shall be charged at twice the applicable tariff rate for the relevant category of service. The amount billed at this rate shall not be taken into consideration for the purpose of computing consumer's liability to pay monthly/annual minimum charges, wherever applicable.
Section 12. If the connected load of the consumer is found in excess of load contracted, then the fixed charge or the demand charge, as the case may be, shall also be charged for the excess load at twice the applicable tariff rate. The period for computation in such cases shall be as stated in 'D' above.
Section 23. If the connected load of LT consumer is found in excess of contracted load and no tampering or bypassing of the meter or theft is detected and meter is found working satisfactorily, then in such cases the short fall in units in Monthly Minimum Consumption (MMC) in energy consumption, if any, and the fixed charge for the excess load detected during the inspection/raid shall be charged at twice the applicable tariff rate for the period stated in 'D' above.
Section 34. In cases where fixed monthly tariff exist, monthly assessment shall be made at twice the normal rate for excess load.
Section 46. If it is found at any time that the connection has been shifted to a premises or area other than for which supply of electricity was authorised, the assessment shall be made for entire period during such unauthorised shifting has taken place, however the period during which such unauthorised use of electricity has taken place cannot be ascertained shall be limited to 12 months immediately preceding the date of inspection. The assessment shall be made at the rate equal to twice the applicable
