The court rejected the power distribution company's civil suit for electricity theft charges against the respondent, finding the suit violated the Electricity Act, 2003. The court ruled that civil liability in electricity theft cases must be determined exclusively by the Special Court under Section 154(5) of the Act, not ordinary civil courts, and dismissed the case for lack of cause of action under CPC Order 7 Rule 11. This case analysis is maintained by casestatus.in based on publicly available court records.
