I , M.M.GUPTA, consumer of electricity from CESC/Kolkata, consumer No.[protected], have to pay Rs morer because of wrong method applied in billing in April & May 2012 .
A Electric bill for April 2012 shows adjustment amount to
Rs (-) 100 ( with advice -please do not pay this bill )
[ In reality a meter no.2005758 replaced on 24/4/12 showed
consumption of 89 units, due for charging in April2012 bill , amounting to (25x3.92)+(35x4.38)+(29x5.35) = Rs 456.45 .
By deducting adjustment amount of Rs 100 , amoint to be paid was 456.45-100=Rs 356.45]
B Electric bill for May2012 shows 315 units due to a new meter
no.4481975 added with previous month's unrealised 89 units ,
[THUS INFLATING THE BILL FOR 89 UNITS @Rs7.75 per unit at a slab above 300 units ,resulting in (89x 7.75 =Rs689.75
against 456.45 , an increase by 689.75-456.45=Rs 233.39 PLUS adjustment Rs 100 not mentioned really in May 2012 ,meaning another Rs 100 loss ,totalling Rs 333.39 LOSS ]
C Comparing the loads -earlier meter recorded 89 units in 13 days(6.84 units per day) whereas new meter , for same loads, records 315 units in 29 days (10.86 units per day as from 25th May upto 13th june there was nobody in house to consume )
My point is meter is reading high
MAY I EXPECT REDRESSAL OF MY COMPLAINTS?

Subject: Application to correct wrong billing
Dear Sir,
This has reference to your Bill No. 142123 dated 25th October 2007 for the period from 13th April 2007 to 16th August 2007 against Connection No.R-85510 for sum of Rs.250/-.
I am to inform you that the above-mentioned bill for Rs.250/- was paid in cash by me at Corporation Bank, Vasant Lok, Vasant Vihar, New Delhi-57 in the month of November 2007. Unfortunately, this bill-amount is shown by you as outstanding and is repeatedly being reflected in the bills along with surcharge.
I have collected Detailed Report of Credits from Corporation Bank as a proof of payment made. Photocopy of this along with photocopy of Bill No.142123 and other bills thereafter are enclosed herewith for your ready reference.
You are requested to review my account and clear the above mentioned bill amount along with surcharge at the earliest.
Thanking you,
