CESC (Calcutta Electric Supply Corporation) — Cumulative billing of consumption for 3 months in a Single Month

Address:Kolkata, West Bengal

Bills were tendered up to reading of 27609 recorded in February’ 2014 account, based on actual registrations of the erstwhile meter no: 2810655. On 11/03/2014 the erstwhile meter was replaced by the present meter no: 4988669, the removal reading of the former being 27640 and the fixing reading of the latter being 00001 On 02/04/2014 and on 30/04/2014 readings of 00158 and 00478 were recorded against the present meter no: 4988669, but due to pending updation of our records with the above exchange details, the bill for March’ 2014 account was tendered for Meter Rental only and the bill for April’ 2014 account included the consumption of 31 units[protected] registered by the erstwhile meter from its reading date of February’ 2014 account (Reading 27609 on 04/03/2014) to its date of replacement on 11/03/2014 (Removal Reading 27640) Till April’ 2014, no consumption registered by the present meter was billed As the total consumption has been charged in a single bill, the energy charges went up too as the slab varies depending on consumption. CESC was requested to spread the consumption evenly (through bills for 04/2014 to 06/2014) so that the undersigned may be relieved of this gigantic amount that is too unrealistic
