    Case Summary: RCS 56/2026 Court Decision: The court partly allowed PGVCL's suit for recovery of outstanding electricity dues. The defendant was ordered to pay the principal amount of Rs. 6,639.27 plus 6% simple interest per annum from the filing date until realization, along with costs. The court rejected the plaintiff's claim for 24% interest as unsupported by contract or statute. Key Reasoning: The court found the defendant liable based on undisputed documentary evidence (Consumer Ledger Account and Technical Report) showing accumulated arrears from Nov 2023 to Oct 2025. Since the defendant failed to appear or file any written statement despite notice, the unchallenged figures were deemed admitted under the doctrine of non-traverse, establishing the electricity debt and the statutory contract binding the defendant to pay under the Electricity Act, 2003.
