Approach for FY 2013-14

1.28 On the basis of the MYT Regulations, 2011, a detailed MYT Order specifying AT&C

loss trajectory, controllable expenses, etc. during the period FY 2012-13 to FY 2014-

15 was issued along with the Tariff Order dated 13.07.2012.

1.29 Accordingly, under the MYT Framework, the Commission has projected the ARR for

the Petitioner for each year of the Control Period in the MYT Order 2012-15 issued

on 13.07.2012. Under MYT Regulations 2011, the components of ARR have been

segregated into controllable and un-controllable parameters. As per the regulation

4.21 of the MYT Regulation 2011, various controllable and un-controllable

parameters shall be trued-up as per the principles stated as follows:

a) Variation in revenue / expenditure on account of uncontrollable sales / power

purchase respectively shall be trued-up every year;

b) For controllable parameters,

i. Any surplus or deficit on account of Operation and Maintenance (O&M)

expenses shall be to the account of the Licensee and shall not be trued-up in

Tariff Order for FY 2015-16 New Delhi Municipal Council

Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission Page 16

September 2015

ARR; and

ii. Depreciation and Return on Capital Employed shall be trued-up every year

based on the actual capital expenditure and actual capitalization vis-à-vis

capital investment plan (capital expenditure and capitalisation) approved by

the Commission.

Provided that any surplus or deficit in Working Capital shall be to the

account of the Licensee and shall not be trued-up in ARR.

Provided further that the Commission shall not true-up interest rate, if

variation in State Bank of India Base Rate as on 01.04.2012, is within ±1%

during the Control Period. Any increase/decrease in State Bank of India Base

Rate beyond ±1% only shall be trued-up.

1.30 The Petitioner was directed to submit asset wise capitalization details for the FY

2005-06 to FY 2013-14 within two months from the date of issue of order in the

Tariff Order dated 31.07.2013. The Petitioner has not submitted the requisite details

related to capitalisation including audited financial statements for electricity

distribution business from FY 2005-06 till date

1.31 The true-up of Capitalization involves physical verification of assets with the

procurement and accounting records of the utilities. The true-up, therefore, will be

possible only after the exercise of physical verification is complete. For physical

verification, a linkage needs to be established between equipments installed at site

and Fixed Asset Register being maintained by the distribution licensees. The

Commission is of the view that capitalization review for any year cannot be taken up

in isolation before completion of the exercise for previous years, as there are

overlapping issues like completion of schemes, MAP, IDC etc. The Petitioner has

been committing to provide the list of capitalised schemes, but never sought

approval for new schemes or provided the desired information on completed

schemes or audited accounts. In view of the excess Capitalization considered by the

Commission in past Tariff Orders based on the Petitioner’s submission without

adequate details and comparing the GFA of Electricity Distribution Business with

total GFA as per Annual Financial Statement of FY 2013-14, the Commission has now

Tariff Order for FY 2015-16 New Delhi Municipal Council

Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission Page 17

September 2015

decided to restrict the GFA addition on provisional basis from FY 2005-06 to FY 2013-

14 subject to the actual details submitted by the Petitioner. Accordingly the

treatment of each parameter has been given in Chapter 3.

1.32 The Commission has accordingly, trued up the uncontrollable parameters viz. Power

Purchase Cost, Energy Sales and Revenue based on the information submitted by the

Petitioner for FY 2013-14 after exercising prudence check. The true up of

controllable parameters is governed by Regulation 4.21 of the 2nd MYT Regulations

as mentioned above. The detailed treatment of each component of uncontrollable

and controllable parameters is provided in Chapter 3 of this Order.

Approach for FY 2014-15

1.33 The Petitioner requested for a review of ARR for FY 2014-15 which had been

determined earlier by the Commission in its Order dated 23.07.2014. The mechanism

for True up as specified in the MYT Regulations envisages that variations on account

of uncontrollable items like energy sales and power purchase cost shall be trued up.

Truing up shall be carried out for each year based on actual/audited accounts and

prudence checks undertaken by the Commission. Accordingly, the Commission is of

the opinion that in accordance with the MYT Regulations, 2011 the True up of FY

2014-15 can only be considered based on the audited financial statement once the

Petitioner makes a regular tariff Petition for True up of FY 2014-15.

Approach for FY 2015-16

1.33 The ARR for the FY 2015-16 shall be determined inter alia based on the following

provisions of the MYT Regulations, etc. pertaining to Distribution business:

(a) Regulation 3.2 - ARR and Tariff for Wheeling Business and Retail Supply

business separately.

(b) Regulations 4.5 and 4.6 - Base line values (operating and cost parameters) and

performance targets.

(c) Regulations 4.7 and 4.8 - Targets for controllable Parameters including AT&C

loss, Distribution losses, Collection efficiency, O&M expenditure, Return on

capital employed, Depreciation and quality of supply and conditions for

eligibility for higher rate of incentive.

(d) Regulations 4.10, 4.11 and 4.12 - Sales forecast.

Tariff Order for FY 2015-16 New Delhi Municipal Council

(e) Regulations 5.28 and 5.29 - AT&C loss reduction trajectory for each year of the

Control Period.

(f) Regulation 5.30 - Transmission and Load Dispatch Charges and Wheeling

charges.

(g) The allocation from the unallocated quota of Power at the disposal of GoNCTD

may change from time to time and needs to be considered based on the latest

available data or the Commission may have to make reasonable assumptions

with respect to allocation of power from the unallocated quota.

(h) Availability of power from the new sources of generation, based on their actual

/revised Commissioning schedule.

1.34 The Commission has evaluated the ARR submitted by the Petitioner on the basis of

the 2nd MYT Regulations extended for one year and other factors considered

appropriate by the Commission.

A2: RESPONSE FROM STAKEHOLDERS

Introduction

2.1 Section 64(3) of the Electricity Act, 2003, stipulates that the Commission shall

determine tariff under Section 62 of the Electricity Act, 2003 for the distribution

licensees, after consideration of all suggestions received from the public and the

response of the DISCOMs to the objections/suggestions of stakeholders, issue a tariff

order accepting the applications with such modifications or such conditions as may

be specified in the order. Public hearing, being a platform to understand the

problems and concerns of various stakeholders, the Commission has encouraged

transparent and participative approach in hearings to obtain necessary inputs

required for tariff determination. Accordingly public hearings was held in Siri Fort

Auditorium, New Delhi on 04.08.2015 with consumers to discuss the issues related

to the Petitions filed by NDMC for true up of expenses for FY 2013-14, Review for FY

2014-15 and ARR for FY 2015-16.

2.2 In the Public Hearings, the stakeholders offered their comments and

suggestions before the Commission in the presence of the Petitioners.

2.3 The Commission has examined the issues taking into consideration the

comments/suggestions offered by the various stakeholders in their written

statements and during the public hearings and also the response of the Petitioners

thereon.

2.4 The comments/suggestions of various stakeholders, the replies/response by the

Petitioners and the views of the Commission thereon are summarized under

following subheads:

Issue 1: Tariff Rates

Stakeholder’s comments

2.5 Proposed new rates are unfair to soldiers/veteran. Tariff rate should be Rs. 2 per unit

upto 400 units and Rs. 4 per unit for 401 to 800 units.

2.6 Proposed Tariff hike is not justifiable. Rates for electricity in Delhi are already very

high. It is not easy for a common man to bear them. Electricity rates are to be

reduced by 70%.

Tariff Order for FY 2015-16 New Delhi Municipal Council

Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission Page 20

September 2015

Petitioner’s Submission

2.7 Cost of Power Procurement and transmission charges are very high. If same are

reduced, increase in Tariff may not be required.

2.8 NDMC Tariff is lowest in Delhi and Tariff hike is the need of the hour. Tariff

rationalization is required to cover the regulatory assets.

2.9 Aggregate Revenue Requirement for NDMC is justified in the tariff petition.

Commission’s View

2.10 The Commission determines the ARR for the DISCOMs as per the provisions of the

Regulations. The Commission in its Tariff Order has provided the details of the

breakup of major components considered for projecting costs of supply during FY

2015-16, like power purchase cost, O&M costs, CAPEX, financing cost, gap in true up

of FY 2013-14 and carrying cost for the regulatory assets etc. This forms the basis for

projection of the gap between present requirement in terms of ARR and revenue

available at existing tariff. The gap between these two figures has to be filled by

increasing the tariffs and this is in consumer interest because failure to increase tariff

will only result in an increase in accumulated revenue gap/Regulatory Assets and

thus impose an additional burden on the average consumer. The Tariff Order is

issued after prudence check of the Petitions submitted by the DISCOMs and after

considering each element of their petitions with due analysis and ensuring proper

justification.

2.11 Further, the tariff for NDMC is relatively lower as compared to other DISCOMs. The

Commission has also retained the tariff for FY 2014-15 in FY 2015-16 as well.

Issue 2: Fixed Charges

Stakeholders’ View

2.12 Fixed charges to be reduced to reasonable level. Load is increased on the basis of

three highest KW readings in a year but it is not decreased on the same pattern.

Petitioner’s Submission

2.13 Load is increased because consumer consumes more than the sanctioned load

burdening the feeders and transformers. In case a consumer decides to use less load

Tariff Order for FY 2015-16 New Delhi Municipal Council

Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission Page 21

September 2015

than sanctioned he/she can approach the DISCOM office for getting the load

reduced.

Commission’s View

2.14 The Commission is of view that the fixed cost in the Tariff has to be recovered so as

to meet the fixed cost element of the distribution business.

2.15 Tariff includes both Fixed and Energy charges. If Fixed charges are reduced, the

Energy charges are to be correspondingly increased to meet the ARR. When only

energy charge is levied or energy charge as well as fixed charge is levied, the same

would have to be recovered from the consumers. The Commission has already

initiated revision in Standard of Performance Regulation, 2007 and the stakeholder’s

comments/suggestions regarding revision of Sanctioned Load based on the three

highest MDI has been noted.

2.16 Further, the Commission has retained the existing practice of different fixed charges

slab for load upto 2 KW and between 2-5 KW

Issue 3: Tariff Rate for Doctor’s Clinics

Stakeholders’ View

2.17 Doctors who have their clinics at their residencies, which is allowed by law, should

not be charged at commercial rates for the electricity consumed, as this is a service

to the community.

Petitioner’s Submission

2.18 In Tariff Order issued by the Commission for FY 2014-15 for NDMC, under “Other

Terms and Conditions of Tariff”, it is mentioned that;

“Professionals i.e. individuals engaged in those activities involving services based

on professional skills including Doctors may utilize the domestic connection at

their residence for carrying out their professional work, provided the area used

for professional activity does not exceed the area permitted to be used for such

activity in residential area under the Master Plan for Delhi, 2021 (MPD-2021),

which as per MPD-2021 is permissible on any one floor only but restricted to less

than 50% of the permissible or sanctioned FAR whichever is less on that plot or

Tariff Order for FY 2015-16 New Delhi Municipal Council

Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission Page 22

September 2015

dwelling unit.”

2.19 Applicability of category for Tariff shall be decided by the Commission through Tariff

Order for FY 2015-16.

Commission’s View

2.20 The Commission has already covered Doctors under the domestic tariff category as

per the tariff schedule approved, therefore if they are charged under non domestic

tariff category, stakeholders should approach to the Petitioner for charging under

the correct tariff category.

2.21 The Commission is of the view that extending concessional tariff to clinics/hospital,

etc. run by private parties would be a retrograde step and will increase the cross

subsidy element.

Issue 4: Separate sub-category for Telecom Towers

Stakeholders’ View

2.22 Telecom towers have been categorized under commercial category by Delhi utilities.

Telecom towers continuously consumed Power all around the day, thereby

maintaining a high load factor. Around 86% of electricity consumption is fairly

constant over a 24 hours period. Due to their telecom towers do not contribute

significantly to the peak hour consumption of the DISCOMs and are part of the base

load of distribution utility. Such a load profile does not pressure out the distribution

utility to buy additional short term power at higher prices there by leading to overall

lower ‘cost to serve’ for such consumers. Hence, a new sub-category for telecom

towers within commercial category with timer Tariff has to be introduced.

Petitioner’s Submission

2.23 Telecom towers are commercial establishments and should be treated at commercial

category. However, direction of DERC shall be accepted.

Commission’s View

2.24 The Commission is of the view that in most of the states, telecom towers are covered

under commercial Tariff Category only. For example MERC and UPERC etc. also do

not recognize Telecom Service Sector as a separate category for electricity Tariff

Tariff Order for FY 2015-16 New Delhi Municipal Council

Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission Page 23

September 2015

Purpose. Therefore, creation of a separate Tariff category for Telecom Tower

Operators is not considered necessary.

Issue 5: Time of Day Metering and Net Metering

Stakeholders’ View

2.25 Time of Day Metering: DISCOMs have proposed to cover all consumers under ToD

having sanctioned load of 10KW and above in order to flatter the load curve. It may

be ensured that the smart meters procured by DISCOMs should have all these

features like ToD, net metering etc and all these features should be activated so that

undue burden on consumers is avoided.

2.26 Net Metering: DISCOMs have proposed that consumers opting for net metering for

installing Solar PV plants on their roof tops should pay in single slab of 400-800 units

(Rs. 7.80 per unit) this will discourage solar power which is a clean and sustainable

source of power.

Petitioner’s Submission

2.27 NDMC has implemented ToD and net metering as per DERC Regulations.

Commission’s View

2.28 The Commission is of the view that ToD tariff is an important Demand Side

Management (DSM) measure to flatten the load curve of the DISCOMs. Surcharge

has been introduced under ToD tariff during the peak hours consumption to offset

the costly power purchase during the peak hours and rebate is given to consumers

for shifting the demand from peak to off peak hours.

2.29 The Commission has reviewed the ToD time slots as per the suggestions/comments

received from various stakeholders including GoNCTD and the latest available trend

for demand and supply of power.

2.30 It is observed that during the months of October - April, the maximum demand is less

than the available base supply of power. Accordingly, the ToD Tariff has been

modified and shall be applicable for remaining five (5) months i.e., May – September

of the year as follows:

Tariff Order for FY 2015-16 New Delhi Municipal Council

Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission Page 24

September 2015

a. The Rebate during the Off Peak hours has been reduced from 25% to 20%,

whereas for Peak hours Surcharge shall continue at existing 20%.

b. For other than Peak and Off Peak period, Normal charges as defined shall be

applicable.

c. It shall be now applicable for all consumers (other than domestic) whose

sanctioned load/ MDI is 25kW/ 27kVA and above instead of 50kW/ 54kVA.

d. Option of TOD tariff is also available for all consumers (other than Domestic)

whose sanctioned load/MDI (whichever is higher) is 11kW/12kVA to

25kW/27kVA. Such ToD Consumers will have the option to move back to non-ToD

regime only once within one Financial Year.

Issue 6: Payment of Electricity Bill by Credit Card

Stakeholders’ View

2.31 Payment of Electricity bill above Rs. 5000/- to be allowed through credit card.

Petitioner’s Submission

2.32 In NDMC, payment of any amount can be made through net banking. For payment of

collection centres, directions of DERC are complied.

Commission’s View

2.33 Regarding payment of electricity bills of more than Rs. 4000/- not by cash, the

Commission has taken a conscious decision that in case the bill for consumption of

electricity is more than Rs. 4000/-, payment of the bill be accepted by the Petitioner

by means of Account Payee Cheque/DD. However, payment of any amount can be

made through net banking payment. The Commission has in its tariff order for FY

2009-10 also directed the Petitioner to accept the cash payment of more than Rs.

4000/- for payment of electricity bill in the case of visually impaired consumers only.

Issue 7: Audit of NDMC Accounts

Stakeholders’ View

2.34 Warning should be given to NDMC that if they do not comply with directives, their

License shall be revoked. NDMC does not have separate accounts since inception 13

years have been passed. NDMC shall be directed to do the same in 6 months,

otherwise License revocation proceeding should be started. No expenses shall be

allowed this year if NDMC has not complied with the directive.

Petitioner’s Submission

2.35 NDMC is not an exclusive electricity utility as others are. NDMC is a municipality

formed under Parliament Act for providing general services to the residents of NDMC

area. Electricity distribution is one of the many obligations of NDMC. Most of the

directives of DERC are compiled by NDMC. Separation of accounts is extremely

difficult. Except the Engineers, all other posts in NDMC are transferable from one

department to another. However, for separating accounts, NDMC has appointed a

consultant and shall be able to separate accounts.

Commission’s View

2.36 The Commission observed that NDMC has not been maintaining separate records/

accounts for the electricity business as a separate entity for supplying electricity in

the NDMC area. The Commission has already directed NDMC to separate the

accounts of the electricity business from other activities latest by April, 2010 to

which NDMC has not complied with till date. Due to non-availability of this critical

data, the Commission could not carry out detailed analysis/periodic review of various

elements of expense and revenue. Therefore, the Commission once again directs the

Petitioner to maintain regulatory accounts and expedite the process of segregation

of accounts for its electricity business.

2.37 Further, the Commission has revised the provisional GFA from FY 2005-06 onwards

for the Petitioner due to non submission of audited financial statement and other

details and carrying cost, if any, shall not be allowed to the Petitioner on

substantiating the additional impact based on the audited financial statement on

account of GFA revision.

Tariff Order for FY 2015-16 New Delhi Municipal Council

Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission Page 26

September 2015

Issue 8: Tariff for DMRC

Stakeholders’ View

1. Tariff Increase:

2.38 NDMC proposed to increase the tariff for DMRC i.e. fixed charges from Rs. 125/KVA

to Rs. 164/KVA (31% increase) and energy charges from Rs. 6.10/KVAh to Rs.

7.99/KVAh (31% increase). The unit rate is fixed over and above the power purchase

of DISCOMs instead of fixing unit rate based on purchase cost by DISCOM at 66

KV/220 KV. Thereby even after taking supply at 220KV/66 KV, DMRC is made to bear

energy losses of the distribution net work as well as paying to DISCOMs at the tariff

which is higher than Power Purchase Cost.

2. Effect of increase in Tariff:

2.39 There is an effective increase of almost 178% in last 5 years (i.e from Rs. 2.50 to 6.94

per unit). This has resulted in increase in working expenses of DMRC by 647.7% (i.e.

from Rs. 51.5 Crore in 2007-08 to Rs. 399 Cr in 2013-14), whereas increase in energy

consumption is only 186% (22 Cr units in 2007-08 to 63 Cr units in 2013-14). DMRC

will not be in a position to sustain any additional increase in tariff without passing on

to the consumer.

3. Distribution Losses

2.40 DISCOMs have not disclosed voltage wise losses in its ARR Petition for FY 2015-16.

The purchase cost at 66 KV without considering distribution losses of lower voltage

will be much lower than Rs. 5.77/unit. Since DMRC takes power at 220kV/66KV and

does not contribute to distribution losses, separate power purchase costs may be

given by DISCOMs at various voltage levels (i.e. 220KV 66KV and L.T. level) after

taking into consideration losses at corresponding voltage levels along with

declaration of power purchase cost at each of the above voltage levels, clearly

accounting for the losses for respective voltage levels.

4. Change in contract demand twice in a year

2.41 DMRC may be allowed to change the contract demand twice in a year as the

maximum demand in summer due to high Air Conditioners in service is nearer to

Tariff Order for FY 2015-16 New Delhi Municipal Council

Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission Page 27

September 2015

contract demand and it is much lower in winter. DMRC is paying every month for

contract demand same amount throughout the year.

5. Fixed Charges

2.42 As per agreed principle in November 2002, there is no provision of fixed charges.

Hence, fixed charges are not applicable to DMRC and withdrawal of the same to be

considered by DERC.

6. Revenue Deficit Surcharge

2.43 DMRC may be exempted from payment of Revenue Deficit surcharge (8%

Surcharge).

Petitioner’s Submission

2.44 No response.

Commission’s View

2.45 The DMRC has already been considered as a special tariff category in the tariff orders

issued by the Commission year on year. The issue of drawing power at higher voltage

and rebate thereon has been inbuilt in the Tariff design and addressed appropriately

in the Tariff Order.

2.46 The revision in load can be carried out as per the Provisions of Delhi Electricity

Supply Code and Performance Standards Regulations, 2007.

2.47 The commission is of the view that any increase in tariff for DMRC is on account of

increase in power purchase cost and other components forming part of the ARR of

the distribution licensees.

2.48 The Commission has already directed to the Petitioner for energy audit to determine

the voltage wise loss in the network of the Petitioner.

2.49 The Tariff determined by the commission in respective tariff order was also fixed by

considering all the factors discussed above.

2.50 The Commission has already directed Petitioner for restricting the outages so that

they do not exceed 1% in its area. Therefore, the losses have also been factored in

determining tariff of relevant category.

September 2015

A3: True up of FY 2013-14

Background

3.1 The Commission had approved the Aggregate Revenue Requirement (ARR) of the

Petitioner i.e., New Delhi Municipal Council (NDMC) for FY 2013-14 in its tariff order

dated 31.07.2013. The Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission (Terms and

Conditions for Determination of Wheeling Tariff and Retail Supply Tariff) Regulations,

2011, which are extended for further one year up to FY 2015-16 vide order dated

22.10.2014, provide for truing up of controllable components i.e. Depreciation and

Return on Capital Employed based on review of actual investment during the control

period and uncontrollable components of the ARR at the end of each year of the

Control Period based on audited accounts and prudence check by the Commission.

3.2 NDMC in its Petition has sought for truing up of uncontrollable components for

FY 2013-14. It was informed by the Petitioner that figures in the petition are based

on the budget book for FY 2013-14.

3.3 The Commission would like to reiterate that the Petitioner is not complying with the

directives issued by the Commission in its earlier tariff orders since the first Tariff

Order for FY 2005-06. The Commission in its earlier Tariff Orders for FY 2005-06 and

FY 2006-07 had given directives to NDMC to submit audited information regarding

break-up of assets, separate records for Repair & Maintenance and Administration &

General Expenses incurred for electricity business in its annual petitions. The

Petitioner is yet to comply the directives issued by the Commission.

3.4 The Commission observed that NDMC has not been maintaining separate records/

accounts for the electricity business as a separate entity for supplying electricity in

the NDMC area to the Commission. The Commission directed NDMC to segregate

the accounts of the electricity business from other activities latest by April 1, 2010

and extended the deadline in subsequent Tariff Orders, to which NDMC has not

complied with till date.

3.5 Further, the Commission had directed the Petitioner to take prior approval of capital

expenditure from the Commission in its Tariff Order dated 31.07.2013 as follows:

“3.19 However, for truing up purpose the Commission has provisionally retained

the capitalisation for the first Control Period as approved by the Commission in

Tariff Order for FY 2015-16 New Delhi Municipal Council

Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission Page 29

September 2015

its MYT Order for FY 2007-08 to FY 2010-11 and as approved in Tariff Order for

FY 2011-12. The Commission will carry out the truing up of the actual

capitalisation for the first Control Period once the Petitioner submits scheme wise

details of asset capitalisation with cost benefit analysis to the satisfaction of the

Commission. The Commission accordingly directs the Petitioner to submit

scheme wise asset capitalisation details within two months from the date of

issue of this Order.

.........

3.83 The Commission re-iterates that the consideration of capital investment

including capitalization of interest and establishment expenses during the

Control Period for the purpose of determination of ARR does not imply approval

of schemes and the Petitioner has to obtain the scheme wise approval for the

capital expenditure to be incurred during each year of the Control Period as per

the annual investment plan drawn for the purpose. The Annual investment plan

should be submitted prior to commencement of the respective Financial Year.

The Petitioner is directed to submit the complete DPRs along with cost benefit

analysis for schemes more than Rs 2 Cr for obtaining investment approval of the

Commission. The Petitioner shall also obtain the approval from the Commission

for individual schemes less than Rs 2 Cr but aggregating to Rs 20 Cr. The

Petitioner is advised to submit the quarterly progress report of actual capital

investment in the format prescribed by the Commission within one month of the

respective quarter. The Commission would also True-up the capital investment

for each year at the end of the Control Period based on the actual capital

investment carried out by the Petitioner.

3.84 In the absence of the afore-mentioned information, it is not possible to carry

out final once again directed to comply with directions stipulated in the MYT

Order so that the Commission can carry out due prudence check before

approving the same.”

3.6 The Commission has commented in its Tariff Order dated 23.07.2014 regarding

audited accounts and relevant data for capitalisation as follows:

Tariff Order for FY 2015-16 New Delhi Municipal Council

Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission Page 30

September 2015

“The Commission is constrained to remark that despite the assurance given by

the Petitioner every year that it would furnish all relevant data and audited

accounts for the relevant Financial Year/s to the Commission, it has never

submitted separate records/accounts for electricity business as a separate entity

in any of its Petition. Further, the Petitioner has not provided the requisite

information in all the detailed formats prescribed by the Commission under the

2nd MYT Regulations.”

3.7 The Petitioner was directed to submit asset wise capitalization details for the FY

2005-06 to FY 2013-14 within two months from the date of issue of order in the

Tariff Order dated 31.07.2013. NDMC has not submitted the requisite details related

to capitalisation including audited financial statements for electricity distribution

business from FY 2005-06 till date.

3.8 The Commission officers have visited the office of the Petitioner to examine the

details for true up of capitalisation from FY 2005-06 onwards. The Petitioner

provided Annual Financial Statement for FY 2013-14 during the Technical Validation

Session at the office of the Petitioner. It is observed from Annual Financial Statement

(signed by Chairperson, NDMC) that indicates Gross Fixed Asset for NDMC as a whole

as on 01.04.2013 is Rs. 277.51 Crore as against GFA of Rs. 1080.07 Crore

provisionally recognized in Tariff Order dated 23.07.2014.

3.9 The Commission had recognized the opening GFA of Electricity Business for NDMC in

Tariff Order dated 02.11.2005 as follows:

“2.13.2…the Commission asked the Petitioner to submit the write-up on

methodology adopted for arriving at total value of assets for Electricity

Department. The salient features of details provided by the Petitioner are as

follows:

· Asset Value as on 31st March 2004 has been arrived at based on book value of

material and erection as per the information obtained from all the divisions

· The land and buildings belong to NDMC and therefore not allocated to

electricity department

· The original value of assets includes the value of assets taken over from DVB

and the investments made by NDMC since 1989.

September 2015

· Asset Register is being maintained by the concerned divisions of electricity.

Assets valuation is being done on the basis of the cost of its acquisition and other

elements to be capitalised as per the norms

The Commission has considered the value of Gross Fixed Assets at the end of

March 2004 as provided by the Petitioner.”

3.10 In view of the excess Capitalization considered by the Commission in past Tariff

Orders based on the Petitioner’s submission without adequate details and

comparing the GFA of Electricity Distribution Business with total GFA as per Annual

Financial Statement of FY 2013-14, the Commission has now decided to restrict the

GFA addition from FY 2005-06 to FY 2012-13.

3.11 The GFA addition during FY 2005-06 to FY 2012-13 has been restricted provisionally

on the basis of minimum of GFA addition submitted by the Petitioner and maximum

of Rs. 20 Crore GFA addition allowed without approval of the Commission during a

year till the time the Petitioner submits the scheme wise details of Capitalisation for

True up of Capitalisation.

3.12 The Petitioner is directed to submit the actual claim on account of GFA addition from

FY 2005-06 to FY 2013-14 with scheme wise details on yearly basis. Further, no

carrying cost shall be allowed on difference if any in the provisional capitalisation

and actual capitalisation.

Tariff Order for FY 2015-16 New Delhi Municipal Council

Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission Page 38

September 2015

3.29 The Commission in its 2nd MYT Order dated 13.07.2012 had fixed AT&C loss

reduction target for NDMC at 10.10% for FY 2013-14.

3.30 The Commission has considered 1400.12 MU as the energy input to the NDMC

periphery as submitted by SLDC through letter number F./DTL/207/14-15/GM

(SLDC)/F-41/01 dated 06.04.2015 against 1425.69 MU as submitted by the Petitioner

earlier in its petition, which later on was revised as 1448.15 MU by the Petitioner

vide their letter dated 10.04.2015.

3.31 The Commission noted that the Petitioner has submitted revised month-wise sales,

revenue billed data in Form 2.1 (a) as per which the revenue billed is at Rs. 978.34

Crore for FY 2013-14 including Electricity Duty of Rs.42.82 Crore. Therefore as per

the claim of the Petitioner, the revenue billed is approved at Rs. 935.52 Crore after

deduction of Electricity Duty and other adjustments.

3.32 The Petitioner has submitted that revenue realised during FY 2013-14 from sale of

electricity is Rs. 951.34 Crore. During the prudence check, the Petitioner submitted

figures of Rs. 42.82 Crore and Rs. 6.89 Crore and Rs. 15.49 Crore realized as

Electricity Duty, Non Tariff Income (NTI) and arrears of previous years respectively. In

view of this, the Commission considered Rs. 886.14 Crore as revenue realised net of

Electricity Duty, NTI and arrears of previous years.

3.33 Accordingly, the revised AT&C loss of the Petitioner for FY 2013-14 as approved by

the Commission is summarized as follows:

3.34 The AT&C loss level of 11.57% achieved is higher than the target AT&C loss level of

10.10% for the Petitioner as specified in the Tariff Order dated 13.07.2012 for FY

2013-14. As per Regulation 4.8 of the MYT Regulations, 2011,

“The Distribution Licensee will be eligible for incentive by the way of higher rate

of Return on Equity (to be considered while calculating RoCE) as shown below for

achieving lower AT&C loss level than specified in the loss reduction trajectory:

Additional Return on Equity (%) = (Xi-Yi)/Xi-1-Xi)

Where, Xi = Target AT&C loss level for ith year,

Xi-1 = Target AT&C loss level for (i-1)th year

Yi = Actual AT&C Loss level for ith year

Provided that any financial loss on account of underperformance with respect to

AT&C loss targets shall be to the Licensee’s account.”

3.35 Therefore, Distribution loss, AT&C loss and Collection efficiency calculated by the

Commission while truing up for FY 2013-14 are as follows:

Commission’s Analysis

3.43 The Commission in its Tariff Order dated 31.07.2013 had approved gross power

purchase cost of Rs. 978.67 Crore for FY 2013-14. Further, the Commission had

approved Inter-State Transmission charges of Rs. 18.90 Crore, Intra-State

Transmission charges including SLDC charges of Rs. 28.55 Crore, Rebate on

Transmission charges at Rs. 0.95 Crore and Power Purchase rebate at 2% of

Rs. 19.20 Crore.

3.44 The Commission had estimated revenue from sale of surplus power at Rs. 263.05

Crore and net power purchase cost (inclusive of cost for RPO obligations,

transmission charges & previous years truing up surplus) at Rs. 730.70 Crore for

FY 2013-14 vide tariff order dated 31.07.2013 (Table 49).

3.45 In paragraph 5.24 of DERC (Terms and conditions for Determination of Wheeling

Tariff and Retail Supply Tariff) Regulations, 2011 it is specified that:

“Distribution licensee shall be allowed to recover the net cost of power it

procures from sources approved by the Commission, viz. Intra-State and Inter-

State Trading Licensees, Bilateral Purchases, Bulk Suppliers, State generators,

Independent Power Producers, Central generating stations, non-conventional

energy generators, generation business of the Distribution Licensee and others,

assuming maximum normative rebate available from each source for payment

of bills through letter credit on presentation of bills for supply to consumers of

Retail Supply Business”.

3.46 The Commission on the basis of prudence check, noted that the Power Purchase

Cost from long term sources is Rs. 974.47 Crore and Transmission Charges (including

Tariff Order for FY 2015-16 New Delhi Municipal Council

Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission Page 43

September 2015

SLDC charges) at Rs 48.41 Crore for FY 2013-14.

3.47 In the absence of actual rebate, the normative rebate to be considered at maximum

rate of 2% in the Power Purchase Cost as per the Regulation 5.24 of 2nd MYT

Regulations. The Commission has therefore considered maximum normative rebate

allowable to the Petitioner from long term power purchase and transmission

charges at the rate of 2% as follows:

Table 3.15: Computation of Normative Rebate (Rs. Crore)

Particulars Rebate

Rebate on Gross Power Purchase Cost from long term sources 19.49

Rebate on Total Transmission charges (Inter State + Intra State) (Rs. 48.41 Crore*@2%) 0.97

Total 20.46

3.48 Hence, the Commission has considered the Normative Rebate as Rs. 20.46 Crore

while computing the net Power Purchase Cost for FY 2013-14. The Petitioner is

directed to furnish the details of rebate along with supporting documents within 2

months. However, no carrying cost shall be allowed to the Petitioner on account of

revision in the amount of normative rebate, if any, from the date of this tariff order

to the date of submission of relevant documents.

3.49 The Petitioner claimed a total of Rs. 73.72 Crore as Transmission Charges consisting

of Rs. 24.35 Crore as Inter State Transmission Charges and Rs. 49.37 Crore towards

Intra State Transmission Charges (including SLDC Charges) for FY 2013-14. The

Commission officers have visited the office of the Petitioner to examine the Power

Purchase and Transmission Charges Bills for FY 2013-14 and the Petitioner submitted

Transmission Charges of observes that of Rs. 48.41 Crore comprising Rs. 24.34 Crore

towards Inter-State transmission Charges and Rs. 24.07 Crore for Intra-State

Transmission Charges including SLDC Charges. Thus, the Commission considers the

total Transmission Charges of Rs. 48.41 Crore for FY 2013-14.

3.50 The quantum of UI i.e. 57.41 MU has been considered as per the information

received from SLDC against 29.10 MU considered by the Petitioner. Further, it has

also been observed that the Petitioner has shown amount of Rs. 1.78 Crore against

UI sale of 29.10 MU at an average rate of 61 paisa per unit.

Tariff Order for FY 2015-16 New Delhi Municipal Council

Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission Page 44

September 2015

3.51 However, the Commission has considered the rate of UI at Rs. 1.08 per unit which is

the least UI rate among other three DISCOMs. Hence, the amount computed on sale

of 57.41 MU at Rs. 1.08/unit is Rs. 6.20 Crore.

3.52 Therefore the Commission approves net power purchase quantum based on SLDC

certification as per the following details:

Petitioner’s Submission 3.54 As per Section 7.8 and Section 10.2 of the 2nd MYT Regulations, the Petitioner is

required to submit information as part of annual review on actual performance to

assess the performance vis-à-vis the targets approved by the Commission. The

Tariff Order for FY 2015-16 New Delhi Municipal Council

Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission Page 46

September 2015

Petitioner submitted in its petition that it has restricted itself to submission of actual

expenses for FY 2013-14 for controllable factors.

Commission’s Analysis

3.55 As per Regulation 4.7 of the 2nd MYT Regulations 2011, the Commission has specified

targets for controllable parameters which inter-alia include Operation &

Maintenance expenses (comprising Employee Expenses, Repair & Maintenance

Expenses, Administrative & General Expenses and other Miscellaneous Expenses, viz.

Audit Fee, Rent, Legal Fees etc.), Return on Capital Employed and Depreciation.

3.56 Further, as per Regulation 4.21(b) of 2nd MYT Regulations 2011, for controllable

parameters, any surplus or deficit on account of O&M expenses shall be to the

account of the Licensee and shall not be trued up in the ARR and Depreciation and

RoCE shall be trued up every year based on the actual capital expenditure and

capitalization vis-à-vis capital investment plan (Capital Expenditure and

Capitalization) approved by the Commission.

3.57 The Commission has reviewed the Controllable components in the subsequent

paragraphs based on inter alia 2nd MYT Regulations. The Commission has observed

that the petition filed by the Petitioner had several discrepancies with respect to the

provisions of the 2nd MYT Regulations and the tariff order dated 31.07.2013. The

Commission issued a deficiency note to the Petitioner on 18.03.2015 highlighting the

deficiencies observed in the petition, and directed the Petitioner to submit

clarifications and/or further information. The Petitioner replied to the observations

of the Commission vide its letter dated 10.04.2015. However, the Petitioner has not

submitted scheme-wise details of capitalization and segregation of accounts based

on audited accounts for FY 2013-14 for electricity business relevant to some of the

issues mentioned in the deficiency note for the consideration of the Commission.

3.58 In consideration of the non-availability of the audited accounts for the electricity

business for the FY 2013-14, the Commission did prudence check of expenses for the

True-up of FY 2013-14.

Operation & Maintenance Expenses

Petitioner’s Submission

3.59 Operation & Maintenance (O&M) Expense is total of Expenses incurred towards

Employee, A&G and R&M Expenses. The Petitioner has claimed net O&M Expenses

of Rs. 148.12 Crore as approved in the tariff order dated 31.07.2013.

3.60 Regulation 4.21(b)(i) of DERC Tariff Regulations, 2011 specify “any surplus or deficit

on account of O&M expenses shall be to the account of licensee and shall not be

trued up in ARR.”

3.61 The Petitioner has erroneously considered the net O&M expenses (after efficiency

improvement) at Rs. 151.14 Crore as gross O&M expenses and adjusted for

efficiency improvement at 2% and net O&M expenses claimed at Rs. 148.12 Crore

for FY 2013-14 in true up.

3.62 Further, it has been observed by the Commission that the per unit O&M Expenses

for the Petitioner is higher than the other 3 DISCOMs which works out to Rs. 1.16 per

unit. The Petitioner has not provided any details for the high O&M expenses incurred

during FY 2013-14.

3.63 The Commission in terms of Regulation 4.21(b)(i) has considered the O&M expenses

at Rs. 151.14 Crore in true up for FY 2013-14 as approved in MYT Order dated

Administrative and Civil Engineering Departments Expenses

Petitioner’s Submission

3.64 The Petitioner has submitted that the services of the Administration & Civil

Engineering Department are common to all the functions carried out by it and the

expenditure pertaining to these departments should be allocated to all functions of

the Petitioner.

3.65 The Petitioner has quoted the Commission’s decision in Tariff Order for FY 2005-06

which states that “……..as the exact details of the cost of the works carried out by the

Civil Engineering department for Electricity Department are not available at this

stage, the Commission, for the purpose of determination of ARR for FY 2005-06 has

considered a lump-sum amount of Rs.10.00 Crore on provisional basis towards this

expenditure. The Commission will consider the actual cost of works carried out by

Civil Engineering Department for electricity appropriately during the truing up

process at the end of the year…..”. Since the Petitioner is yet to segregate the

expenses shared by its Civil Engineering Department on account of electricity

distribution business, it has requested the Commission to consider an amount of Rs.

10.00 Crore under this head, which it claims is the same as approved in the Tariff

Order for FY 2005-06 as well as in the MYT Order.

3.66 Further, in respect of Administrative Department expenses, the Petitioner has

quoted the decision of the Commission in Tariff Order for FY 2005-06 which states

that “……thus, while 19% of total administrative department expenses have been

considered to be allocated to electricity department, an amount…...”.

3.67 Accordingly, the Petitioner has requested the Commission to approve the actual

Administrative and Civil Engineering Department Expenses of Rs. 143.54 Crore for FY

2013-14 for the electricity business as per the following Table:

Crore, being 19% of the amount as the allocation for Administrative and Civil

Engineering Expenses purported to be spent by the Petitioner.

3.69 In this regard, the Commission had directed vide Para 4.62 of tariff order dated

31.07.2013 to the Petitioner to separately book the cost of works carried out by Civil

Engineering Department for Electricity Department and provide the complete details

of such works and associated costs at the end of the year bringing out clearly the

percentage expenditure of Civil Engineering Department booked to Electricity

Department vis-à-vis other departments. However, the Petitioner has not complied

with this directive.

3.70 Further, as discussed earlier, the per unit rate of O&M Expenses of the Petitioner is

highest among all the DISCOMs. The Commission is of the view that since the

segregated audited accounts of electricity business of the Petitioner are not

available, the exact details of the cost of works carried out by the Civil Engineering

Department and Administrative Department for electricity business cannot be

identified.

3.71 In view of the above, the Commission has decided to disallow the Administrative and

Civil Engg. Department Expenses for FY 2013-14.

Capital Expenditure & Capitalization

Petitioner’s Submission

3.72 The Petitioner has submitted capital expenditure of Rs. 9.56 Crore and capitalization

of Rs. 9.56 Crore in the truing up for FY 2013-14. The Petitioner has furnished the

Commission’s Analysis

3.73 As detailed in Para 3.9, the Commission has decided to discard previous provisional

GFA and adopt revised provisional GFA for FY 2013-14. The Petitioner has not

submitted the audited financial statement and detailed information regarding

capitalisation including consumer contribution. Therefore, the Commission has

considered the maximum ceiling for GFA addition during each year at Rs. 20 Crore

and the amount of capitalisation submitted by the Petitioner. The impact on account

of consumer contribution shall be considered based on the actual data to be

submitted by the Petitioner in the subsequent years for true up of ARR. Accordingly,

closing GFA worked out for FY 2013-14 is as follows:

Depreciation

Petitioner’s Submission

3.74 The Petitioner has submitted that depreciation is charged on straight-line method on

average GFA at the beginning and at the end of FY 2013-14. The rate of depreciation

is adopted as approved by the Commission in the MYT Order. As per the

Commissions Analysis

3.75 As per Regulation 4.21 (b)(ii) of the 2nd MYT Regulations, Depreciation and Return on

Capital Employed shall be trued up every year based on the Capital Expenditure and

Actual Capitalisation vis-à-vis Capital Investment plan (Capital Expenditure and

Capitalisation) approved by the Commission.

3.76 The Regulation 5.16 of the 2nd MYT Regulations, specify that “…… Provided that

depreciation shall not be allowed on assets funded by consumer contribution and

capital subsidy/ grant”.

3.77 The Commission has considered rate of depreciation @ 3.60% for FY 2013-14.

Hence, in view of the prudence check, the Commission approves Depreciation for FY

2013-14 as follows:

Depreciation and RoCE for the actual investment vis-à-vis approved Capital

3.81 The Commission had approved an amount of Rs. 102.82 Crore towards RoCE in the

tariff order dated 31.07.2013 for FY 2013-14. However, the Petitioner has claimed

Rs. 95.64 Crore towards RoCE and Rs. 4.61 Crore on account of reduction in AT&C

loss, amounting to Rs. 100.25 Crore for FY 2013-14 in its True-up Petition.

3.82 Working Capital requirement has changed due to annual truing up of uncontrollable

expenses as compared to the expenses approved in the MYT order dated

13.07.2012. The Commission therefore uses Working Capital figures calculated as

per Table 3.24 of this order.

3.83 Accordingly, RRB computed in accordance with the provisions of the 2nd MYT

Regulations is as follows:

3.84 Prior to tariff order dated 31.07.2013, RoCE was calculated on average Regulated

Rate Base (RRB) assumed to be funded through 100% debt. As per the MYT

regulations 2011, RoCE is a controllable parameter which will be Trued-up at the end

of the Control Period. The Commission has changed the system of calculating RoCE

from the Tariff order dated 31.07.2013 onwards. Normative 70:30 Debt-Equity is

considered, as NDMC has funded the Capital Expenditure through internal sources.

Tariff Order for FY 2015-16 New Delhi Municipal Council

Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission Page 54

September 2015

The actual scheme wise funding details, Equity, Loans, Grants and Consumer

Contribution are not made available by NDMC. Thus, the Commission has computed

the RoCE as shown in table 3.29.

3.85 Regulation 4.21 of the 2nd MYT Regulations, states that “the Commission shall not

true up the interest rate, if variation in State Bank of India Base Rate as on April 1,

2012, is within ±1% during the Control Period. Any increase/decrease in State Bank of

India Base Rate beyond ± 1% only shall be trued up.” Since Base rate of SBI as on

01.04.2013 was 9.70% and remained within the range of 1% during FY 2013-14 i.e. @

9.70% from 01.04.2013 to 18.09.2013, @ 9.80% during 19.09.2013 to 06.11.2013

and @ 10.00% from 07.11.2013 to 31.03.2014, the Commission has not trued up the

interest rate.

3.86 Accordingly, RoCE calculation for FY 2013-14 for Petitioner is as follows:

Commission’s Analysis

3.88 The Regulation 5.36 of the 2nd MYT Regulations states that “the amount received by

the licensee on account of Non Tariff Income shall be deducted from the Aggregate

Revenue Requirement in calculating the net revenue requirement of such licensee”.

3.89 As per Regulation 5.24 of the 2nd MYT Regulations, the distribution licensee shall be

allowed to recover the net cost of power and transmission assuming maximum

normative rebate available from each source for payment of bills through Letter of

Credit (LC) on presentation of bills for supply to consumers of Retail Supply Business.

The Petitioner has not offered any income on account of Rebate earned on payment

of power purchase and transmission charges bills.

3.90 As per the 2nd MYT Regulations, only two sets of parameters are recognized i.e.

controllable and uncontrollable. The uncontrollable parameters include revenue/

expenditure on account of sales and power purchase and the MYT Regulations

provide for their annual True Up. On the other hand, the controllable parameters

include O&M expense, Capex related expenses and RoCE, but does not specifically

include Non Tariff Income. The MYT Regulations specifically provide for True Up of

controllable expenses of Capex related expenditure i.e. RoCE and Depreciation every

year. The Non-tariff Income is influenced by various factors and is uncontrollable

parameter even though the Regulations are silent and hence shall be trued up based

on the actual Non-Tariff Income every year.

3.91 Further, the arrear amount of Rs. 15.49 Crore collected during FY 2013-14 has been

treated as Non Tariff Income for FY 2013-14.

3.92 Accordingly, the Commission has approved the amount of Non Tariff Income as per

the submissions made by the Petitioner for FY 2013-14 as follows:

3.95 During the year, the energy sales are at 1307.18 MU and the Solar purchases shall be

at 2.61 MU (0.2% of total sales) and the non solar purchase shall be at 60.13 MU

(4.60% of the total sales). The Commission has observed that the Petitioner has

bought only 0.33 MU of solar and no quantum of non solar purchase. Hence, there is

a shortfall of 62.41 MU (Solar – 2.28 MU and Non solar – 60.13 MU). Accordingly, the

REC to be purchased as per the DERC RPO Regulations is worked out as shown in the

table below:

3.96 BRPL & BYPL has requested reconsideration of compliance of RPO for FY 2012-13 and

FY 2013-14 in Petition No. 30 & 31 of 2015. The Commission will decide regarding

levy of penalty, if any, for non-compliance of RPO in the final Order of the Petition

No. 30 & 31 of 2015. The impact as per the Order in the said petition shall be

considered in the subsequent Tariff Order and the same will be applicable for the

Petitioner as well.

Revenue available towards ARR

Petitioner’s submission

3.98 The Petitioner has submitted that based on the tariff rates approved by the

Commission and the monthly consumption, it has raised bills of Rs. 935.52 Crore to

its consumers against energy and demand charges. The total revenue realized from

consumers in FY 2013-14 is submitted to be Rs. 886.12 Crore after deducting the

Electricity Duty, arrears of previous years and NTI.

Commission’s Analysis

3.99 The total amount collected as approved by the Commission is Rs. 886.12 Crore.

Therefore, Commission has computed the total revenue of the Petitioner available

towards ARR to be Rs. 886.12 Crore. However, due to the impact of Rs.14.71 Crore

on account of underachievement by the Petitioner, the amount to be taken as

revenue available towards ARR for FY 2013-14 900.83 Crore.

Estimated Sales for FY 2015-16

4.11 For projecting the sales, the Commission has adopted an Adjusted Trend Analysis

method of demand forecasting for FY 2015-16 which assumes that the underlying

factors which drive the demand for electricity are expected to follow the same trend

as in the past. The forecast is also based on the assumption that the past

consumption trend will continue in future.

4.11 The trend based approach has to be adjusted based on judgment of the

characteristics of the specific consumer categories.

Tariff Order for FY 2015-16 New Delhi Municipal Council

Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission Page 63

September 2015

4.12 The strength of the method, when used with balanced judgment lies in its ability to

reflect recent changes and therefore, probably best suited as a basis for a short term

projections as used for the ARR/Tariff in the context of ARR determination.

4.13 The category-wise sales forecast for FY 2015-16 is discussed as follows:

Domestic Consumers

4.14 The consumption of energy by Domestic consumer’s category constitutes to about

19% of total sales in FY 2014-15. The Petitioner has projected Domestic sales of

269.97 MU for FY 2015-16 considering 3 Year CAGR of 1.71% (FY 2010-11 to FY 2013-

14) against the estimated sales of 265.43 MU for FY 2014-15. The Commission

considers the growth rate of 3.14% i.e. 6 year CAGR (FY 2008-09 to FY 2014-15) on

the actual sales of FY 2014-15 (i.e. 251.60 MU) for projecting sales in FY 2015-16.

Thus, the Commission approves the sales of 259.50 MU for FY 2015-16 for Domestic

consumer’s category.

Non-Domestic Consumers

4.15 In the present petition, the mixed load consumers are clubbed into Non-Domestic

consumers and the total sales are considered under Non-Domestic category. The

Petitioner has projected sales of 1045.80 MU for FY 2015-16 considering 3 Year

CAGR of 1.96% (FY 2010-11 to FY 2013-14) against the estimated sales of 1025.67

MU for FY 2014-15.

The sales to Non-Domestic consumer’s category alone constitutes to about 19% of

total sales in FY 2014-15. The sale for this category has shown negative growth in the

past. However, 1 year CAGR (FY 2013-14 to FY 2014-15) shows a growth of 3.42%.

The sale during FY 2014-15 is at 247.56 MU. Thus, the Commission approves the

sales of 256.03 MU considering 1 year CAGR of 3.42% for FY 2015-16 for Non-

Domestic consumer’s category.

Mixed Load Consumers

4.16 The consumption of energy by Mixed Load category constitutes to about 58% of total

sales in FY 2014-15. The Commission considers the growth rate of 4.28% i.e. 6 year

CAGR (FY 2008-09 to FY 2014-15) on the actual sales of FY 2014-15 (i.e. 757.47 MU)

Tariff Order for FY 2015-16 New Delhi Municipal Council

Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission Page 64

September 2015

for projecting sales in FY 2015-16. Thus, the Commission approves the sale of 789.88

MU for FY 2015-16 for mixed load consumer’s category.

Small Industrial Power

4.17 The consumption of energy by small industrial power category was only 0.05 MU in

FY 2014-15, where as the sales are 0.26 MU in FY 2012-13 and 0.21 MU in FY 2013-

14. The maximum and minimum sales during the period FY 2008-09 to FY 2013-14

were 0.35 MU and 0.21 MU respectively. Thus, the Commission approves 0.21 MU

sales to Small Industrial Power for FY 2015-16 at the same level of actual sales of

FY 2013-14.

Public Lighting

4.18 The consumption of energy by Public Lighting constitutes less than 1% of total sales

in FY 2014-15 at 8.08 MU. It is observed that CAGR varies from 0.82% (FY 2007-08 to

FY 2014-15) to (-)14.56% (FY 2011-12 to FY 2014-15). It has been further observed

that the actual sales in this category for FY 2013-14 is 8.32 MU and for FY 2014-15 is

8.08 MU, which is almost constant. Thus, the Commission approves 8.08 MU sales to

Public Lighting for FY 2015-16 at the same level of actual sales of FY 2014-15.

Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC)

4.19 The consumption of energy by DMRC constitutes about 2.27% of total sales in

FY 2014-15. The Petitioner has projected the sales at 41.10 MU for FY 2015-16.

The Commission inquired from DMRC about its projected quantum of sales in the

Petitioner’s area of supply. DMRC vide its letter No. DMRC/O&M/Tr./VK/T-4/DERC

dated 22.04.2015 has intimated the projected purchase of 33 MU during FY 2015-16

from NDMC. Thus, the Commission has considered the quantum of sale at 33 MU for

NDMC as projected by DMRC for FY 2015-16.

Other Categories

4.20 Other categories consist of enforcement, temporary connections etc. The Petitioner

has projected the sale of 9.83 MU for FY 2015-16. The sale to this category during

FY 2014-15 was 18.25 MU and the sales in FY 2012-13 and FY 2013-14 was 9.57 MU

Tariff Order for FY 2015-16 New Delhi Municipal Council

Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission Page 65

September 2015

and 9.74 MU respectively. The sales recorded during FY 2014-15 at 18.25 MU may

not sustain in future. The nature of sale in this category may not follow the past

CAGR trends in future. Thus, the Commission has considered the quantum of sales to

such other categories at 19.49 MU as actual of FY 2013-14.

Approved Sales for FY 2015-16

4.21 The energy sales for FY 2015-16 as approved by the Commission are as shown in the

Revenue in FY 2015-16 at Existing Tariff

Petitioner’s Submission

4.23 The Petitioner has projected the revenue billed at Rs 977.96 Crore for FY 2015-16 at

existing tariff on the projected quantum of sales of 1375.19 MU.

Commission’s Analysis

4.24 As per two-part tariff principle followed in the NCT of Delhi, the tariff for each

category consists of fixed charges as well as Energy Charges. The fixed charges are

specified for different categories as a fixed amount per month, or as a fixed amount

per kW of connected load per month. The Energy Charges on the other hand are

always usage-based and are specified per unit of electricity consumed.

4.25 The Power Factor considered by the Commission for different categories is as

follows:

Tariff Order for FY 2015-16 New Delhi Municipal Council

Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission Page 66

September 2015

Table 4.6: Power Factor considered by the Commission for FY 2015-16

Sl. No. Consumer Slab Power Factor

1 Non Domestic Low Tension (NDLT)

A Up to 10 kW 0.89

B 10-100 kW 0.93

C Above 100 kW 0.93

2 Non Domestic High Tension (NDHT) 0.95

3 Small Industrial Power (SIP)

A 10-100 kW 0.91

B Above 100 kW 0.93

4 DMRC 1.00

4.26 Hence, taking into account the sales, number of consumers and sanctioned load

approved for each tariff category for FY 2015-16 and the connected load for each

slabs, the Commission has projected revenue to be billed by the Petitioner in

FY 2015-16 at Rs. 1080.18 Crore. Since the Collection Efficiency for FY 2015-16 was

approved at 100% in the MYT Order dated 13.07.2012, the revenue realized in FY

2015-16 is projected to be equal to the amount of revenue billed i.e., Rs. 1080.18

Crore. This amount is excluding Electricity Duty.

4.27 It is observed that the past revenue gap of Rs. 324.08 Crore up to FY 2012-13 as

approved in T.O. dated 13.07.2014, has been liquidated in current truing up exercise

as discussed in past period truing up in chapter 3 of this order. The Commission is of

the view that 8% additional surcharge which had been introduced in case of the

Petitioner for gradual liquidation of the principle of the revenue, should be

withdrawn. Therefore, the revenue realised by the Petitioner through 8% additional

surcharge on existing tariff collected by the Petitioner from April'15 to September'15

has been considered against the ARR of FY 2015-16 which amounts to Rs. 43.21

Crore. Hence, the total revenue computed is Rs. 1123.39 Crore. The category wise

estimated revenue for FY 2015-16 is shown in the Table below:

Petitioner’s submission

4.27 The Petitioner has projected the transmission and distribution losses for FY 2015-16

at the same level as the actual T&D loss for FY 2013-14. Further, the Petitioner has

projected the collection efficiency at 100% as projected in the 2nd MYT Order. The

AT&C loss as projected by the Petitioner for FY 2015-16 is given n the Table below:

Commission’s analysis

4.28 The Commission has considered the Distribution loss targets for FY 2015-16

considering the second MYT control period trajectory for reduction of distribution

loss of 0.25% loss reduction every year due to extension of MYT Regulations, 2011 in

the MYT Order dated 13.07.2012. Hence, the Commission has considered 9.60%

distribution loss for FY 2015-16 against the distribution loss target of 9.5% in FY

2014-15 and collection efficiency at 100% as specified in the 2nd MYT Order for

projection for FY 2014-15 and also as proposed by the Petitioner for FY 2015-16,

which is indicated in the Table as follows:

Commission’s Analysis

4.43 The following methodology has been adopted by the Commission for estimation of

power purchase cost for FY 2015-16.

(a) The Commission has considered the fixed charges and energy charges as per

the petition of the NTPC stations (BTPS and NCPP-Dadri) filed before CERC in

line with the CERC Tariff Regulation FY 2014-19. Further, the Commission has

considered an escalation of 5% on the Energy Charges of these stations.

(b) For Pragati-I, the Commission has considered the rate as approved in Tariff

Order of PPCL for FY 2015-16.

(c) The cost of power purchase from Solar Energy Corporation of India (SECI) has

Petitioner’s Submission

4.45 The Petitioner has not shown any purchase of power from the short term sources.

Commission’ Analysis

4.46 The Commission directs the Petitioner that in case of excess demand, the Petitioner

may first utilize the quantum of Banked Energy and in case of further shortage they

may purchase from Bilateral/Exchange etc. so as to keep the short term power

purchase cost at minimum level.

4.47 The Commission directs to adhere strictly the principle of merit order dispatch while

scheduling of power from long term and short term transactions of power. As per

Merit Order Dispatch principle, the plants are stacked in least cost approach of their

Variable Cost. The demand is then met through stations in ascending order of their

Tariff Order for FY 2015-16 New Delhi Municipal Council

Variable Cost subject to various Technical Constraints and the balance power from

the left over stations after meeting the required demand, are not scheduled.

Renewable Power Purchase Obligation (RPO)

4.48 The Commission has notified the Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission

(Renewable Purchase Obligation and Renewable Energy Certificate Framework

Implementation) Regulations, 2012 with effect from October, 2012 and it states as

follows:

“Every obligated entity shall meet its RPO target by way of its own

generation or by way of purchase from other licensee(s) or by way of

purchase of Renewable Energy Certificate(s) or by way of combination of any of

the above options.”

4.49 The Commission has prescribed the following year-wise Solar and Non-solar

Renewable Obligations for the Distribution Companies for the period FY 2013-14 to

FY 2016-17 in the above said Regulations:

4.72 The Commission had approved the formula for Power Purchase Cost Adjustment

Charge vide its tariff Order dated 31.07.2013.

4.73 The Power Purchase Adjustment would be according to the formula as follows:

Power Purchase Adjustment (PPA) formula

PPA for nth Qtr. (%) = (A-B)*C + (D-E)-F

{Z * (1- Distribution losses in %)} * ABR Where,

A = Total units procured in (n-1)th Qtr (in kWh) from power stations having long term Power Purchase Agreements (To be taken from the bills of the GENCOs issued to distribution licensees)

B = Proportionate bulk sale of power from Power stations having long term Power Purchase Agreements in (n-1)th Qtr (in kWh)

=

Gross Power Purchase including short term power in (n-1)th Qtr (in kWh)

Total bulk sale and gross power purchase in (n-1)th Qtr to be taken from provisional

accounts to be issued by SLDC by the 10th of each month.

C = Actual average Power Purchase Cost (PPC) from power stations having long term Power Purchase Agreements in (n-1)th Qtr (Rs./ kWh) (Projected average Power Purchase Cost (PPC) from power stations having long term Power Purchase Agreements (Rs./ kWh)

D = Actual Transmission Charges paid in the (n-1)th Qtr

E = Base Cost of Transmission Charges for (n-1)th Qtr = (Approved Transmission Charges/4)

F = Net revenue billed from ToD i.e. (Revenue billed on account of Surcharge-Rebate)

Z = [{Actual Power purchased from Central Generating Stations having long term PPA in (n-1)th Qtr (in kWh)*(1- INTERSTATE TRANSMISSION LICENSEE losses in %) + Power from Delhi GENCOs including BTPS (in kWh)}*(1 - DTL losses in %) – B] in kWh

formula approved by the Commission and recover from the consumers on approval

of the Commission.

4.76 In Order to give effect to PPAC on quarterly basis the following directives are to be

implemented:

(a) The PPAC will be charged to all categories of consumers.

(b) The PPAC for any quarter would be charged only after it is approved by the

Commission.

(c) The weighted average base cost in Rs/kWh shall be as approved in this Tariff

(d) The Distribution licensee shall submit to the Commission the details in

respect of changes in power purchase cost of plants having long term PPAs, as

listed in Table for (n-1)th quarter. Further, Auditor’s Certificate along with

statement indicating plant-wise details of fixed charges, variable charges,

other charges and units purchased from each plant having long term PPAs, as

listed in Table for (n-1)th quarter along with actual transmission charges for

(n-1)th quarter, revenue realised from surcharge and rebate given during (n-1)th

quarter on account of ToD shall be furnished along with the proposal of PPAC

surcharge submitted for the Commission’s approval. Further, similar

information in respect of current bills should also be furnished in the Auditor’s

certificate.

(e) The percentage of PPAC will be rounded off to two decimal places.

(f) The percentage increase on account of PPA will be applied as a surcharge on

the total energy and fixed charges (excluding theft bills, arrears, LPSC,

Electricity duty etc.) billed to a consumer of the utility.

(g) The bill format shall clearly identify the PPA percentage and amount of PPAC

billed as separate entries.

(h) The PPAC calculated for any quarter, the first quarter being July-September

2013, shall be applied prospectively for 3 months after approval is received

from the Commission.

(i) In view of the fact that PPAC computed for any quarter will be applied after a

time delay for a subsequent 3 month period, there would necessarily be a

difference between the actual power purchase cost increase and the recovery

by the distribution utility through the quarterly adjustments. The difference

will be adjusted at the time of annual true-up undertaken by the Commission

for that year.

(j) The PPAC claim of any quarter submitted by the Petitioner shall be examined

by the Commission every quarter and abnormal increase in PPAC claim in any

quarter will be carried forward to the subsequent quarter to avoid tariff shock

and to normalize the PPAC burden on to the consumer.

(k) This PPAC formula shall remain applicable till it is amended, reviewed or revised.

O&M Expenses 145.09

Commission’s Analysis

4.78 The Commission vide Order dated 22.10.2014 has extended the MYT period of FY

2012-13 to FY 2014-15 for a further period of one year i.e. FY 2015-16, ordered vide

clause 23 that

“.......... Further in Order to avoid any doubt or ambiguity, the Commission in its

wisdom considers it appropriate that the MYT Regulations 2011 be extended in

totality i.e. the control period should be extended for one year i.e. FY 2015-16.

Therefore the Commission is of the considered view that public interest is best

served by extending the MYT regulations 2011 by one year i.e. FY 2015-16”.

4.79 The Commission has approved inflationary increase at 8.00% in the MYT Order dated

13.07.2012 and accordingly, approved the O&M expenses for the MYT period with

year on year escalation for inflationary increase over the base expenses.

4.80 The Commission, in terms of ruling at Clause 23 in its Order dated 22.10.2014, has

considered year on year growth rate of 8.00% on the O&M expenses considered for

FY 2014-15 (as per MYT Order dated July 13, 2012) and approves the O&M expenses

for FY 2015-16.

4.81 The Commission has approved net O&M expenses at Rs.158.99 Crore (after

efficiency improvement of 4%) for FY 2014-15 in the MYT Order dated 13.07.2012.

Tariff Order for FY 2015-16 New Delhi Municipal Council

Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission Page 84

September 2015

4.82 It is observed that the Petitioner has projected the O&M expenses for FY 2015-16 at

the same level of FY 2013-14 without escalation for year on year inflationary

increase.

4.83 The Commission has considered the O&M expenses of FY 2014-15 as base O&M

expenses in accordance with the MYT Order dated 13.07.2012 and escalated with

8.00% for inflationary increase and projected the O&M expenses for FY 2015-16. The

efficiency factor is considered at 4% in line with the efficiency factor considered for

FY 2014-15 due to higher per unit of O&M expenses of the Petitioner in comparison

of other distribution licensee in the area of GoNCTD.

4.84 The Commission, accordingly, has considered the O&M expenses for FY 2015-16 as

given in the table below:

Administrative Expenses and Civil Engineering Department Expenses

Petitioner’s Submission

4.86 The Petitioner has stated that it is yet to segregate the expenses shared by its Civil

Engineering Department on account of electricity distribution business and hence

considered the same amount as approved by the Commission for FY 2015-16 in the

tariff Order dated 31.07.2013 provided in the Table as follows:

Particulars Petitioner's submission

Administrative and Civil engineering Department Expenses

45.37

Commission’s Analysis

4.87 As discussed in chapter 3 of this Order, the O&M Expenses per unit of the Petitioner

is highest among all the DISCOMs. Further, addition of Administrative and Civil

Engineering Department Expenses increases the O&M Expenses to about 3 times

than the other DISCOMs. Hence, in view of the high O&M Expenses of the Petitioner

in comparison of other distribution licensee operating in the area of GoNCTD, the

Commission has not considered the cost of Administrative and Civil Engineering

Department Expenses over and above the normative O&M expenses of the

Petitioner for FY 2015-16.

Capital Expenditure and Capitalization

Petitioner’s Submission

4.88 The Petitioner has proposed Capital expenditure and Capitalization for FY 2015-16

with escalation of 5% over the capex and capitalisation approved for FY 2014-15 in

the MYT Order dated 13.07.2012 as given in the Table below:

Particulars Petitioner’s Projections

Capital expenditure 12.00

Capitalisation 15.29

Commission’s Analysis

4.89 Regulation 4.21(b)(ii) specifies that Depreciation and Return on Capital employed

shall be trued up every year based on the actual Capital investment plan (Capital

expenditure and capitalization) approved by the Commission. The actual financial

and physical performance of Capex for FY 2014-15 are not yet available for the

Petitioner to arrive at the actual Capital Expenditure, Capitalization, Depreciation,

the closing balance of GFA and the Regulated Rate Base that need to be carried

forward as opening balances for FY 2015-16 for considering any changes/revision of

these expenses for FY 2015-16. The Petitioner has projected the Capital Expenditure

the rate of interest considered for FY 2015-16 in the tariff Order dated 31.07.2013

and RoE is considered at 16% as per DERC Tariff Regulations, 2011. The Petitioner

has computed the WACC as detailed in the following Table:

Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission Page 90

September 2015

Table 4.41: WACC projected by the Petitioner for FY 2015-16 (Rs. Crore)

Commissions’ Analysis

4.99 As per the Regulation 5.11 of the MYT Regulations 2011,

“For the purpose of determination of tariff, debt equity ratio for the asset

capitalised shall be 70 : 30. Where equity employed is in excess of 30%, the

amount of equity for the purpose of tariff shall be limited to 30% and balance

amount shall be considered as notional loan. Where actual equity employed is

less than 30%, the actual equity and debt shall be considered. The working

capital shall be considered 100% debt financed for the calculation of Weighted

Average Cost of Capital.

4.100 The Commission has considered the weighted average cost of debt at 11.50% equal

to the cost of debt considered for FY 2015-16 in the tariff Order dated 31.07.2013.

4.101 The Commission has accordingly, computed the weighted average cost of capital as

Commission’s Analysis:

4.108 The Commission observed that past accumulated revenue gap has been liquidated

by the impact of past period truing up as discussed in chapter 3 of this Order.

4.109 Further, the Commission had introduced 8% additional surcharge in the Tariff Order

dated 23.07.2014 towards liquidation of accumulated revenue gap at the end of FY

2012-13. The expected revenue had been estimated from 8% additional surcharge

during FY 2014-15 was Rs. 67.23 Crore which will be adjusted in the Truing up of

ARR of FY 2014-15 against Revenue Gap, if any, of the Petitioner.

4.110 In view of the above, the Commission has decided that carrying cost on account of

accumulated revenue gap is not required to be allowed in the ARR for FY 2015-16.

Therefore, the Commission has not considered any amount of carrying cost in the

Treatment of Revenue (Gap)/Surplus

Petitioner’s Submission

5.5 The revenue deficit for FY 2015-16 as submitted by the Petitioner is Rs. 365.64 Crore

at existing tariff. The Petitioner projected gross gap of Rs. 636.56 Crore as on

31.03.2014. The Petitioner proposed an increase of 37.39% flat tariff increase for

different categories of consumer to get additional revenue of Rs. 365.64 Crore

during FY 2015-16. The Petitioner has not submitted any proposal for liquidation of

closing gap upto FY 2013-14.

Commission’s analysis

Revenue (Gap)/Surplus at Existing and Revised Tariffs

5.6 The summary of revenue billed at existing tariffs for NDMC for FY 2015-16 is as

follows:

Table 5.3: Revenue at existing and revised tariffs for FY 2015-16 (Rs. Crore)

Total 1080.18

Total Revenue Realized @ 100% Collection Efficiency

1123.39

5.7 The Commission has revised the tariff with effect from 01.10.2015.

5.8 The Commission observes that the Revenue surplus till FY 2013-14 is Rs. 44.60 Crore,

while revenue gap for FY 2015-16 is Rs. 6.54 Crore at existing tariff. The surcharge

approved by the Commission in the last Tariff Order collected by the Petitioner will

enable them to generate additional revenue of Rs. 43.21 Crore for FY 2015-16.

5.9 The impact of past true-up upto FY 2013-14 has resulted into a revenue surplus at

the end of FY 2013-14. Since there is only minimal revenue gap projected during FY

2015-16 which will be offset against the current surplus available at the end of FY

Tariff Order for FY 2015-16 New Delhi Municipal Council

Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission Page 96

September 2015

2013-14. Therefore, the Commission decides that there is no need to levy 8%

surcharge in the area of NDMC.

5.10 The Commission is also encouraging the Petitioner to take various DSM measures

which would have the impact of reducing the peak demand of Delhi and

consequently reduction in the purchase of costly peak power.

5.11 Considering the factors listed above, the Commission has decided not to increase the

tariff in FY 2015-16.

5.12 Further, the Commission in this Tariff Order has made an effort to reduce the

prevailing cross subsidy level in the existing tariff structure. The prevailing tariff

structure in Delhi contains a large degree of cross subsidy, with some categories of

consumers paying well above the cost of supply. It has to be recognized that low and

subsidised tariffs initiate inefficient high demand for power, which puts pressure on

the system capacity and the quality of service. As per Section 61(g) of the Electricity

Act 2003, the tariff should progressively reflect the cost of supply of electricity

and also reduce and eliminate cross-subsidies within the period to be specified by

the Commission.

Cross-Subsidization in Tariff Structure

5.13 The Electricity Act, 2003 provides for reduction of cross subsidies by moving the

category wise tariffs towards cost of supply. The Commission also recognizes the

need for reduction of cross subsidy. However, it is equally incumbent on the

Commission to keep in mind the historical perspective for the need to continue with

cross-subsidy for some time.

5.19 Regarding cross subsidy, clause 8.3 of the National Tariff Policy states,

“… Direct subsidy is a better way to support the poorer categories of consumers

than the mechanism of cross subsidizing the tariff across the board. Subsidies

should be targeted effectively and in transparent manner. As a substitute of

cross subsidies, the State Government has the option of raising resources

through mechanism of electricity duty and giving that subsidy to only needy

consumers. This is a better way of targeting subsidies effectively.”

5.14 In line with the above provision of the National Tariff Policy, Regulation 8.1 of the

Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission (Terms and Conditions for Determination of

Tariff Order for FY 2015-16 New Delhi Municipal Council

Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission Page 97

September 2015

Wheeling Tariff and Retail Supply Tariff) Regulations, 2011, states that any

consumer desirous of getting subsidized tariff shall approach the appropriate

Government and if the request for subsidy is found justified, the appropriate

Government may give subsidy to that class of consumers so that these consumers

get electricity at concessional tariff.

5.15 At present, there are a number of consumer classes such as some slabs of domestic

consumers, Government Schools/Colleges, Hospitals, etc. which are being cross

subsidized by other consumers. Several stakeholders have raised serious concern

over cross subsidization of some categories and argued that electricity distribution is

purely commercial operation and there is no justification for making some

consumers pays for others. If any class of consumers is to be given concessional tariff

on socio-economic ground, the State Government shall bear the cost on this count as

supporting weaker sections of society is the responsibility of the government and

this responsibility cannot be thrust upon other sections of consumers.

5.16 The Commission is of the view that in an ideal case, electricity tariff for all

categories of consumers should be fixed on cost to serve basis. In accordance

with the Act and the policies prescribed from time to time, the Commission has

made an attempt in this Tariff Order to maintain the prevailing cross-subsidy.

Tariff Structure

Domestic Tariff

5.17 Domestic tariff is applicable for power consumption of residential consumers,

hostels of recognized/aided educational institutions and staircase lighting in

residential flats, compound lighting, lifts and water pumps or drinking water supply

and fire-fighting equipment, etc. in Cooperative Group Housing Societies (CGHS),

bona fide domestic use in farm houses, etc. as per the revised tariff schedule.

5.18 All the Cattle/ Dairy Farms and Dhobi Ghat across Delhi with a total consumption of

not more than 400 units in a month and connected load of up to 2 kW shall be

charged domestic tariff. However, in case the consumption in a month exceeds 400

units, the total consumption including the first 400 units shall be charged non-

domestic rates as applicable to the consumers falling under the Non Domestic

category.

5.19 The Commission in its Tariff Order dated June 26, 2003 introduced two part tariff for

domestic consumers, i.e., fixed charges and energy charges and abolished minimum

charges and meter rent. The fixed charge in two-part tariff represents the fixed

component of charges, which is independent of consumption level and depends on

the fixed cost incurred by the Utility in supplying electricity.

5.20 The Commission has considered the views expressed by the stakeholders and after

considering various options, the Commission proposes to continue with the existing

methodology of levying fixed charges on slab system, based on the sanctioned load

till sanctioned load of 5 kW and for sanctioned load above 5 kW, the fixed charges

shall be applicable in Rs/kW terms.

5.21 Under Domestic category, the slab above 800 units has further been changed to 801-

1200 units and above 1200 units.

Domestic single delivery point for CGHS

5.22 In last order dated July 31, 2013 the Commission has revised the slab structure for

co-operative group housing societies (CGHS) complexes and considered first 55% of

Tariff Order for FY 2015-16 New Delhi Municipal Council

Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission Page 99

September 2015

the consumption at the rate of 201-400 units slab rate of Domestic Category, next

40% of the consumption at the rate of 401-800 units slab rate of Domestic Category,

and balance 5% of the consumption at the rate of 801 units and above slab rate of

Domestic Category.

5.23 In this order the Commission has revised the slab structure for co-operative group

housing societies (CGHS) complexes and considered first 40% of the consumption at

the rate of 201-400 units slab rate of Domestic Category, next 30% of the

consumption at the rate of 401-800 units slab rate of Domestic Category, next 20%

of the consumption at the rate of 801-1200 units slab rate of Domestic Category, and

balance 10% of the consumption at the rate of 1201 units slab rate of Domestic

Category. Further the Commission has clarified that the energy charges for

independent connection for common facilities through separate shall be billed as per

respective slabs of CGHS instead of highest of the Domestic rates as in the earlier

Tariff Schedule.

Non-Domestic Tariff

5.24 Non-domestic category of consumers comprises two sub-categories viz., Supply on

low Tension and Supply on High Tension (11 kV and above).

Non-Domestic Low Tension (NDLT)

5.25 This category covers LT Non-Domestic consumers having contract demand or

sanctioned load (whichever is applicable) up to 100 kW/108 kVA.

5.26 For the consumers with sanctioned load up to 10 kW in this category, the

Commission had specified the kWh based tariff only. The Commission has decided to

continue with the existing practice.

5.27 For Non-domestic consumers having contract demand or sanctioned load more than

10 kW (11 kVA) and up to 100 kW (108 kVA), the Commission has specified kVAh

based energy charges.

Tariff Order for FY 2015-16 New Delhi Municipal Council

Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission Page 100

September 2015

5.28 For Non-Domestic low tension (NDLT) category, the slab between 10 kW (11 kVA)

and up to 100 kW (108 kVA), the Commission has specified kVAh based energy

charges.

5.29 For Non Domestic consumers having contract demand or sanctioned load (whichever

is lower) more than 100 kW/108 kVA and up to 200 kW/215 kVA and availing supply

on LT will also be charged kVAh tariff which will be higher than tariff for non

domestic consumers having contract demand or sanctioned load more than 10 kW

and up to 100 kW/(108 kVA). This has been done in view of the fact that the lower

the voltage of supply, higher will be the system losses and hence the consumers with

connected load more than 100 kW (108 kVA) at LT voltage (400 V) have to be

discouraged.

5.30 The Commission believes that with gradual movement towards voltage linked tariff,

irrespective of load of the consumer, the tariff for consumption at higher voltages

will be lower than that for lower voltages, which will discourage consumers to opt

for LT connections particularly for loads higher than 100 kW.

5.31 For existing consumers having sanctioned load/contract demand, whichever is

applicable, in kW, the actual power factor of the consumer in the relevant billing

cycle shall be considered for converting kW to kVA for computing the fixed charges.

For new consumers, the sanctioned load/contract demand shall be in terms of kVA

only.

Non-Domestic High Tension (NDHT)

5.32 Non-domestic consumers with contract demand or sanctioned load more than 100

kW/108 kVA shall avail supply on 11 kV.

5.33 Non domestic consumers availing supply on 33 kV/66 kV or 220 kV will be entitled

for rebate of 2.5% and 4% respectively on the applicable energy charges on 11 KV

tariff.

Tariff Order for FY 2015-16 New Delhi Municipal Council

Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission Page 101

September 2015

5.34 For existing consumers having sanctioned load/contract demand, whichever is

applicable, in kW, the actual power factor of the consumer in the relevant billing

cycle shall be considered for converting kW to kVA for computing the fixed charges.

For new consumers, the sanctioned load/contract demand shall be in terms of kVA

only.

Industrial Tariff

5.35 Industrial category of consumers consists of two sub-categories, viz., Small Industrial

Power (SIP) and Large Industrial Power (LIP).

Small Industrial Power (SIP)

5.36 This category covers industrial consumers having contract demand or sanctioned

load, whichever is applicable, up to 200kW/215kVA.

5.37 For the consumers with sanctioned load up to 10 kW in this category, the

Commission had specified the kWh based tariff only. The Commission has decided to

continue with the existing practice.

5.38 For Small Industrial Power (SIP less than 200 kW/215 kVA) category, the slab

between 10 kW (11 kVA) up to 100 kW (108 kVA), the Commission has specified the

kVAh based tariff.

5.39 Industrial consumers having contract demand or sanctioned load more than

100 kW/108 kVA and up to 200 kW/215 kVA and availing supply on LT will also be

charged kVAh tariff which will be higher than the tariff for Industrial consumers

having contract demand or sanctioned load more than 11 kVA and up to 108 kVA.

This has been done in view of the fact that lowers the voltage of supply, higher the

system losses and hence consumers with connected load more than 108 kVA at LT

voltage (415 V) have to be discouraged.

5.40 For existing consumers of 10 kW and above having sanctioned load/contract

demand, whichever is applicable, in kW, the actual power factor of the

consumer in the relevant billing cycle shall be considered for converting kW to kVA

for computing the fixed charges. For new consumers, the sanctioned load/contract

demand shall be in terms of kVA only.

Tariff Order for FY 2015-16 New Delhi Municipal Council

Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission Page 102

September 2015

Large Industrial Power (LIP)

5.41 Industrial consumers with contract demand or sanctioned load more than 108 kVA

shall avail supply on 11 kV.

5.42 The Commission believes that with gradual movement towards voltage linked tariff,

irrespective of load of the consumer, the tariff for consumption at higher voltages

will be lower than that for lower voltages, which will discourage consumers to opt

for LT connections particularly for loads higher than 100 kW.

5.43 For supply at 33/66 kV, consumers will get a rebate of 2.5% on the energy charges

applicable for supply at 11 kV and a rebate of 4% for supply at 220 kV.

5.44 For existing consumers having sanctioned load/contract demand, whichever is

applicable, in kW, the actual power factor of the consumer in the relevant billing

cycle shall be considered for converting kW to kVA for computing the fixed charges.

For new consumers, the sanctioned load/contract demand shall be in terms of kVA

only.

Agriculture

5.45 Agriculture connections are available for tube wells for irrigation, threshers and

kutty cutting in conjunction with pumping load for irrigation purpose for loads up to

Mushroom Cultivation

5.46 This category is applicable to the consumers who are engaged in mushroom

cultivation/processing.

Public Lighting

5.47 Tariff for this category is applicable to all street light consumers including MCD, DDA,

PWD/CPWD, CGHS, Slums, DSIIDC and certain civilian pockets of MES. The share of

MCD, however is dominating as most of the street lights in the city are owned by the

MCD.

5.48 The Commission has decided that tariff for public lighting which is metered will be

lower than tariff for public lighting which is unmetered. Therefore, the Commission

has prescribed different tariff for metered and unmetered public lighting.

Tariff Order for FY 2015-16 New Delhi Municipal Council

Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission Page 103

September 2015

5.49 As regard to the maintenance charges for street lighting, the Commission would like

to clarify that the maintenance charges and other conditions of maintenance of

street lights as approved in the Commission’s Order dated September 22, 2009 will

continue till such time it is amended. Further, it is to clarify that the maintenance

charges are exclusive of applicable taxes and duties.

Railway Traction

5.50 This category is applicable to Indian Railways for traction purposes for loads more

than 100 kW/108 kVA.

DMRC

5.51 This category is available to Delhi Metro Rail Corporation (DMRC) to run its

operations (other than construction projects).The Commission has decided to

increase the applicable energy charges for DMRC to meet the cost of supply. The

commercial load at DMRC stations shall be metered and billed separately as per the

relevant tariff category.

Advertisement and Hoardings

5.52 The Commission, in its last Tariff Order dated July 31, 2013 has created a separate

category to cover the consumption for the advertisements and Hoardings. This

category will be applicable for supply of electricity for lighting external

advertisements, external hoardings and displays at departments stores, malls,

multiplexes, theatres, clubs, hotels, bus shelters, Railway/Metro Stations, Airport

and shall be separately metered and charged at the tariff applicable for

“Advertisements and Hoardings‟ category, except such displays which are for the

purpose of indicating/displaying the name and other details of the shop, commercial

premises itself. Such use of electricity shall be covered under the prevailing tariff for

such shops or commercial premises.

Temporary Supply

5.53 The Commission does not propose any change in the existing tariff methodology for

temporary supply as mentioned in the Tariff Schedule.

Tariff Order for FY 2015-16 New Delhi Municipal Council

Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission Page 104

September 2015

Time of Day (ToD) Tariff

5.54 It is observed that the cost of power purchase during peak hours is quite high. Time

of Day (ToD) tariff is an important Demand Side management (DSM) measure to

flatten the load curve and avoid such high cost peaking power purchases.

Accordingly, the Commission had introduced Time of Day (ToD) tariff wherein peak

hour consumption is charged at higher rates which reflect the higher cost of power

purchase during peak hours. At the same time, a rebate is being offered on

consumption during off-peak hours. This is also meant to incentivise consumers to

shift a portion of their loads from peak time to off-peak time, thereby improving the

system load factor and flatten the load curve. The ToD tariff is aimed at optimizing

the cost of power purchase, which constitutes over 80% of the tariff charged from

the consumers. It also assumes importance in the context of propagating and

implementing DSM and achieving energy efficiency. This is important in Delhi

situation where wide variations in load especially in summer causes problem of

shortages during Peak hours and surplus during off peak hours.

5.55 Introduction of higher peak hour tariff would initially generate additional revenue

which would compensate for the reduction in revenue on account of lower tariff

during off-peak hours.

5.56 In the long run, this would provide signals to the consumers to reduce load during

peak hours and, wherever possible, shift this consumption to off-peak hours. Any

loss of revenue to the utility on account of shifting of load from peak to off-peak

hours in the long run would by and large get compensated by way of reduction of

off-peak surplus to the extent of increase in off-peak demand.

5.57 The ToD Tariff would thus have immediate as well as long term benefits for both,

consumers as well as the utility and contribute towards controlling the rise in power

purchase costs.

5.58 The Commission in its MYT Order for second Control Period dated July 13, 2012 had

decided to introduce ToD Tariff on a pilot basis for large industrial and non domestic

consumers (300 kW and above). This was targeted to the consumer segment which

has capacity to bear a higher burden for peak hour consumption and also at least

partly (if not fully) offset the impact of this increase through higher off-peak

Tariff Order for FY 2015-16 New Delhi Municipal Council

Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission Page 105

September 2015

consumption at lower rates. The Commission as a progressive step in this direction

and to further encourage demand shift from peak hours to off-peak hours has

decided to lower the applicability limit for ToD Tariff.

5.59 In the Tariff order dated July 31, 2013, the Time of Day (ToD) Tariff# - ToD Tariff was

made applicable on all consumers (other than domestic) whose sanctioned load/MDI

(whichever is higher) is 100 kW / 108 kVA and above.

5.60 In the Tariff order dated July 23, 2014, the Time of Day (ToD) Tariff# - ToD Tariff was

made applicable on all consumers (other than domestic) whose sanctioned load/MDI

(whichever is higher) is 50kW / 54 kVA and above. Also Optional TOD tariff was made

available for all consumers (other than domestic) whose sanctioned load/MDI

(whichever is higher) was between 25kW/27kVA to 50kW/54kVA.

5.61 In this Tariff Order, the Commission has decided changes in Time of Day (ToD) Tariff#

as follows:

a) TOD tariff shall be applicable on all consumers (other than Domestic) whose

sanctioned load/MDI (whichever is higher) is 25kW/27kVA and above as shown in

the table below.

b) Option of TOD tariff shall also be available for all consumers (other than Domestic)

whose sanctioned load/MDI (whichever is higher) is 11kW/12kVA to 25kW/27kVA.

If the consumer who has opted for TOD of sanctioned load between 11kW/12kVA

to 25kW/27kVA, the charges for up-gradation of meters , if any, shall be borne by

respective consumers.

c) The Commission has decided to reduce the Rebate during the Off Peak hours from

25% to 20% whereas for Peak hours Surcharge shall continue at 20%. Optional

ToD Consumers will have the option to move back to non-ToD regime only once

within one Financial Year.

d) The Commission has reviewed the ToD time slots as per the suggestions/

comments received from various stakeholders including GoNCTD and the latest

available trend for demand and supply of power. It is observed that during the

months of October - April, the maximum demand is less than the available base

supply of power. Accordingly, the revised the time slots for Peak and Off-Peak

hours is as follows:

# For other than peak and off-peak hours, normal energy charges will be applicable. Note: The additional impact due to ToD tariff on the bill received by the management of commercial complexes may be recovered by the SPD manager by spreading this component of tariff on pro-rata basis on the users of the complex.

A6: DIRECTIVES

6.1. The Commission directs the Petitioner to make timely payment of bills/dues to

central & state generating stations and transmission utilities. No Late Payment

Surcharge shall be allowed as a pass through in the ARR, on account of delayed

payments.

6.2. The Commission directs the Petitioner to optimise its cost of a procurement of

power. No fixed cost on account of regulated power will be allowed as a pass

through in the ARR.

6.3. If the distribution licensee purchases any expensive power to meet the demand

during any time zone for which cheaper power has been regulated due to non-

payment of dues, in such an eventuality, the cost of such expensive power

purchases will be restricted to the cost of regulated cheaper power to that extent

at the time of true up.

6.4. In case the power is regulated by DTL/Interstate Transmission Licensee due to non-

payment of their dues, then in that case the transmission charges borne by the

Petitioner besides the treatment of regulated power as detailed in above directive

will also not be allowed.

6.5. The Commission directs the Petitioner to ensure that asset capitalization takes

place within a reasonable time and the approved cost so that IDC does not increase

disproportionately. Before start of work, the utility is aware of the actual approved

cost of completion of the scheme. As a norm, the Commission would consider the

completion period indicated by the utility at the time of seeking approval of the

scheme from the Commission at the approved capital cost by the Commission. In

exceptional cases where completion of a project gets delayed or there is a change

in cost of completion beyond 15% of approved cost, for reasons beyond the

control of the utility, the utility will take prior approval of the Commission of any

additional amount that needs to be capitalized in excess of the cost of completion.

This can only be an exception but not the rule and the utility would need to justify

delay in capitalization in each case where delay and/or cost overrun takes place.

Failing this or pending receipt of satisfactory explanation, the Commission would

go by the completion period indicated in the Commission’s approval to the scheme

Tariff Order for FY 2015-16 New Delhi Municipal Council

Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission Page 118

September 2015

and provide for IDC accordingly.

6.6. The Commission directs the Petitioner to ensure availability of power supply for

meeting the demand. The licensee shall ensure that the electricity which could not

be served due to any reason what-so-ever shall not exceed 1% of the total energy

supplied in units (kWh) in any particular month except in the case of force-majeure

events which are beyond the control of the Petitioner.

6.7. The Commission directs the Petitioner that there will be a cash limit of Rs.4000/-

while accepting billing dues from consumers. Any bill above Rs.4000/- must be paid

by any mode other than cash. This limit is also applicable in case of recovery of all

types of dues including LPSC, Misuse charges, theft charges etc. No authority in the

DISCOM is permitted to waive this condition pertaining to cash collection. Violation

of this directive shall attract penalty to the level of 10% of total Cash collection

exceeding Rs. 4000/-.

6.8. The Commission directs the Petitioner that for DMRC, Railways, DJB and DIAL, the

Security deposit charges against contract demand shall be allowed to deposit

through irrevocable bank guarantee to be renewed/revised, as and when required

depending on the billing demand as against prevailing practice of actual payment.

6.9. The Commission directs the Petitioner that RPO requirements for green power for

the year 2015-16, must be met along with requirements carried over from the

previous year, and if so required by way of purchase of REC’s from the exchange.

Non compliance of Renewable Purchase Obligation (RPO) shall attract penalty of

10% of the cost of REC for quantum of shortfall in RPO.

6.10. In case the consumer’s cheque is dishonoured, then he may be warned and given a

final opportunity for payment of cheque along with LPSC. If a second case of

dishonouring of the cheque occurs with the same consumer within next three

months, it shall be stipulated that payment in future will be received only by DD up

to a period of next six months.

6.11. The Commission has already decided to provide relief to those consumers whose

industries are non-functional for the period when it is either under shut down or

not functional and who utilize up to 5% of the sanctioned load (not available for

part use of the load), then the conversion from kW to kVA for the purpose of

calculation of fixed charges may be done considering 0.9 power factor.

6.12. The Commission directs the distribution licensee not to undertake any transactions

relating to purchase/sale of power with their related parties without open

tendering process. If any purchases/sales are affected through agent/ middleman

or a trader other than the power exchange (s), then any trading margin paid to

such agents/ middleman or trader will also not be admissible as a pass through in
