Hyderabad Metro body moves HC against rise in power tariff
HYDERABAD: The Telangana High Court on Monday directed the counsel for the Discoms to obtain instructions by Tuesday in a plea filed by L&T Metro Rail (Hyderabad) Limited on the power tariff fixed for running the metro rail.
Metro Rail moved to the High Court after Telangana State Electricity Regulatory Commission (TSERC) upheld the increase in power tariff for Metro rail. The counsel for the petitioner informed the court that the petitioner had addressed a representation to the Government of Telangana Energy Department requesting to fix the tariff on a “cost to serve” basis as per clause 6.4 of the Concession Agreement.
