The court ordered the respondent to pay the outstanding electricity bill of ₹96,223.14 at 6% annual interest from the bill date until payment, along with recovery of PGVCL's case costs. However, the court rejected PGVCL's demand for 15% interest on pending dues, finding no contractual agreement between parties justifying that rate.
