Accordingly, the tariff has been revised with retrospective effect and bill of Rs.5,98,088/- has been raised by the Licensee.

There is a service line drawn much earlier for the domestic connection to Sri. Prasannan, brother of the appellant, which is crossing her property. She has constructed a house and first floor of the building is completed and the service line to Sri. Prasannan is passing above this building. The Municipality has issued the plan approval without noticing the line. Now, the Municipality is not allocating the building number as the service wire is crossing above the building. The appellant is claiming that the service wire was drawn crossing her property without her consent. The appellant approached the Consumer Grievance Redressal Forum, Central Region Ernakulam and the CGRF ordered that this is sub-judice and hence, no decision is taken. The appellant filed the appeal petition before this Authority and decision is taken as: The appellant has to remit the revised estimate amount and the Licensee has to execute the shifting of this service wire.
