Bordowali office issued a notice, why bills might go higher from October 25 for prepaid users, saying, “……….even after the tariff was increased in August, 2024, the system software was not changed. Now with the system's upgradation, the bills will be shown higher as three months' pending meter rents, and fixed charges have been added through a reconciliation process.”

The matter came to light after a consumer slammed the TSECL when he got only 79 units after paying Rs. 1,500

He was confused and resented after a heated exchange with the TSECL consumers.

“Earlier, at 500 rupees the unit was like 85 but this month it shows at 1,500 rupees only 79 unit was given which is totally confusing,” a consumer who came to Bordowali power office said.

“We want transparency. Also, we want to know how much charge was imposed per month and they are just not giving us any details,” he said.

It's turning insane; No room for complaint: An Electricity Consumer expressed heavy resentment over TSECL's functioning.

However, with the notice was published on our Facebook page, the confusion is clear.

But question raises, why did not the TSECL announce it for the common people earlier and how can they manage their budget with the sudden hike ?
