casestatus.in Summary

The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's decision that a potential transformer (PT) constitutes a "meter" under Section 26(7) of the Indian Electricity Act, 1910, thus confirming the Electrical Inspector's jurisdiction to review UPSEB's demand of Rs. 57,77,891.38 against Atma Steels for underreporting of electricity consumption due to a blown fuse. The Court remitted the appeal for merit-based hearing and upheld Atma Steels' obligation to pay the demanded amount per its undertaking to the Civil Judge, with 24% interest applicable depending on the final outcome.
