HYDERABAD: The question vexing the State government for months now — how to fill the huge revenue gap of Rs 10,928 crore of the two Discoms for the year 2022-23, remained unanswered on Monday, despite Finance Minister T Harish Rao and Energy Minister G Jagadish Reddy discussing the issue at length. The Ministers did agree to meet again, at a later date.
Monday’s meeting was held at BRKR Bhavan in the wake of the Telangana Electricity Regulatory Commission (TSERC) suggesting to the Discoms to increase the power tariff to bridge the gap. The TSERC also wants the Discoms to file the tariff proposals within seven days.
