3 Revenue at Existing Tariff

1. Revenue from sale of power for FY 2012-13 & FY 2013-14 is determined based

on the estimated/projected energy sales and category wise tariff prevalent in

the Jammu & Kashmir as per the Tariff Order for FY 2012-13.

2. Revenue billed from sale of power at existing tariff is expected to be Rs. 1601.51

Crores in FY 2012-13 and projected to be Rs. 1,743.28 Crores in FY 2013-14, as

shown in Table 2.

3. The table below summarizes the revenue from sale of power at existing tariff

for FY 2012-13 and FY 2013-14:

2. JKPDD would like to submit that the revenue gap takes into consideration the

collection efficiency levels also. The collection efficiency is expected to improve

from 95% in FY 2012-13 to 96% in FY 2013-14.

5 Tariff Revision Proposal

1. Table 4 summarizes the revenue at proposed tariffs for FY 2013-14.

2. As depicted in Table 3, total Revenue Gap of Rs. 3,506.08 Crores for the FY

2013-14 is proposed to be covered through additional revenue from proposed tariff

revision as well as through financial support from Government of J&K

3. In addition, there is estimated Revenue Gap of Rs. 3,479.00 Crores in FY 2012-13,

for which suitable recovery mechanism need to be evolved.

4. The increase in tariff will reduce the revenue gap by Rs 253.94 Crores in FY 2013-

14.

5. However, even after the proposed tariff hike, gap of Rs 3,270.13 Crores is still

remains. This unmet gap can be met through financial support from Government

of J&K.

6. It may be seen that there is a large gap between the average cost of supply and

category-wise average tariff, part of which is attributed to the fact that after the

tariff revision in the year 1999, the next tariff revision was done by Hon’ble

Commission for FY 2007-08 and thereafter in 2010-11, 2011-12 & 2012-13

respectively. However, average tariff still adequate enough to cover only 38% of

average cost of supply. Further besides agriculture and domestic consumers, non-

domestic and industrial consumers are also heavily subsidized. Hence following

proposal is made to increase average tariff to reduce this gap gradually.


7. Further, Tariff Hike currently proposed is based on the consideration of Prudent

Average Cost of Supply i.e. Rs 6.36 p.u. Prudent Average Cost of Supply has been

computed using national average loss level of 25.27% as mentioned in the annual

report for FY 2011-12 on the Working of State Power Utilities and Electricity

Departments, Planning Commission, Government of India, October 2011.

8. It is evident that even after proposed hike, except State Central Government

categor, all categories like Domestic, NDNC, Agriculture, Public Street Lighting,

LT industrial Supply, HT Industrial Supply, HT-PIU Industrial Supply, HT Public

Water Works & General Purpose / Bulk Supply are still below Average Cost of

Supply at Prudent Loss Level.

9. Also in this proposal, the average hike proposed for unmetered consumers is more

as compared to average hike proposed for metered consumers in same category.

10. No Hike has been proposed in the Miscellaneous Charges.

11. KVAh tariff (in Energy Charges only) is proposed to be introduced in following

categories for connected load > 20 kW (metered connections only):

a. Non Domestic / Commercial

b. State / Central Government Departments

c. LT Industrial Power Supply

d. LT Water Works

The rationale behind introduction of kVAh tariff is to encourage consumers to

initiate on their own, the steps to improve their power factor. The kWh and kVAh

tariffs are currently proposed to be introduced in energy charges only and are

proposed to be kept at par with each other so that at unity power factor there is no

disparity in the charges paid by the consumers in the same category for same

consumption.

12. In line with Commission’s Observation in last Tariff Order (clause 10.7) it is

proposed that the Minimum Charges are proposed to be discontinued from next

Financial Year and instead same Fixed Charges are proposed to be introduced in

these categories.
