THE decision on payment of 60 per cent of billed amount came later in the month while some of the consumers, like me, had paid the bill in full. My normal electricity bill ranges between Rs2,000 and Rs3,500 depending on the usage of weather-dependent appliances. This time the bill was Rs6,300 and I paid the same to avoid default on my bills, as I was travelling.

There were a few other people in the queue who paid the billed amount. I am wondering as to how the adjustment of amount will be made, especially under the situation when the government is thinking of reducing the tariff as well. Can the relevant authority please clarify the concern?
