[Resolved]  Delhi Jal Board — change of faulty water meter / rectification of water bill

Address:

New Delhi, Delhi

Subject: Regarding miscalculated water bill due to defective water meter and requesting for the change of water meter. Dear sir/madam, This is regarding the water bill for the period 1st march 2014 to 23rd June 2014 received by me. My KNO No. [protected]. (category -1, domesic type). This is the first water bill after the installation of new water meter. The bill displays a shocking amount of Rs. 12, 179/- for a period of 115 days. It also shows an arrear of Rs. 4176.76/-, though I don’t have any pending dues! This bill seems to be miscalculated and erroneous after the installation of the new meter. Ours is a small family with 2 adults and 2 minors and only 500 Litres water tank with no electric motor. The history of the previous units consumed and the number of days along with bill is attached hereby for your kind consideration. My earlier bills cycle (with previous meter) shows an average bill in the range Rs 300 to Rs 700, which has suddenly jumped to rocking amount of Rs 12, 179/-. This new meter shows a steep hike of 210 units for 115 days, which is unbelievable, as my water consumption remains the same. I request you to kindly go through my problem on priority basis and do the needful to rectify the bill and change my present erroneous water meter. I request the concerned authorities to rectify the bill and bring me respite. Thanks Nidhi Bhatnagar R/o C-7/99A Lawrence Road Delhi -110035 Email: [protected]@rediffmail.com
