Tamil Nadu Electricity Board [TNEB] — Excess bill amount because of meter damage due to flooding

Address:

Chennai, Tamil Nadu, ‎603202

I own an apartment in Urapakkam, G.S.T Road, Chennai.
There were tenants in my flat until October and they vacated and my EB bill amount until October was Rs 3000 Per month as it had AC running. For October Month since My Tenant has vacated, I got a bill of Rs 988.

Because of Chennai Flooding on 01-Dec-2015, My Apartment EB Meters and Boards have got completely damaged and there was no power for more than a month in the flat and EB meter was replaced and power was restored only 2 weeks back.

Infact all the tenants of the flat has vacated because of flooding and no power supply . Only 25-30 families (Owners) are there in the flat now.

Since EB Meters are not there, TNEB has taken 6 months average bill and have sent a bill or Rs 4400. Have raised a complaint online and it has been closed that they were right in taking average.

But Rs 4400 with no complete Power Supply is not reasonable amount.

TNEB should review this and revise this charge to a nominal amount. I agree if they take my previous month average.
