For Consumers who opt for demand based Tariff, Fixed charges are payable based on the sanctioned load as long as the recorded M.D. in a Trivector meter / demand meter, is less than the sanctioned load provided the Trivector meter / demand meter is in good working condition and not tampered with.

If recorded M. D. is higher than the sanctioned load, penal charges at twice the normal rate shall apply.
