    Case Summary: Regular Civil Suit No. 88/2025 The Principal Senior Civil Judge at Dhandhuka rejected UGVCL's suit for recovery of Rs. 15,388.86 in unpaid electricity charges against defendant Bhathibhai Kamabhai Butiya, finding the suit barred by limitation under Section 56(2) of the Electricity Act, 2003, which mandates filing within two years of permanent disconnection (18.05.2023). Although the court found merit in the plaintiff's claim based on undisputed evidence and ex-parte proceedings, the suit filed on 22.08.2025 exceeded the statutory limitation period, rendering it legally unenforceable.
