Chandigarh Power Distribution Limited refunds meter rental charges to 2 lakh consumers
Chandigarh Power Distribution Limited (CPDL) has refunded meter rental charges to nearly two lakh consumers in compliance with directions issued by the joint electricity regulatory commission (JERC) and the electricity ombudsman.
The meter rental charges had earlier been abolished by JERC. However, the electricity wing of the engineering department, Chandigarh (EWEDC), continued to levy the charges between April 1, 2023, and November 5, 2024.
