Power tarrif in Delhi
2) In Feb.2012, Govt again raised power tariff by 6%.
3) In July 2012, again power tariff was hiked by steep 26% for domestic consumers.
4) Prior to 2011 also power tariff was being regularly hiked almost every year. This was the forth hike during last 1 year at that time. When asked, DERC Chief said that due to Discoms deficit of about 6000Cr, they had no option but to increase power tariff. CM, Mrs Shiela Dixit washed off her hands by saying that DERC was an independent entity to decide power tariff.
Since AAP Govt has taken over, there has been no power hike for the last two years and most likely in 3rd year also no change is expected. This will have perpetual favorable impacty to all category of users. more
