The information provided by the expert is not authentic as clarified by the author in the article link given therein. It is prepared based on the electricity bill received from various users which may not be reliable. The author himself clarifies that the information gather is not from the trusted source.

For the reason as expressed i had suggested that it would be better if a local consultant is approached to get the practical solution. Thanks.

Yes, it is based on Bills received from the consumer. Now the moot question is that whether this bill issued by State Electricity Department is authentic or not? If bills are authentic one so the information.

The information pertains to individual consumer as the author indicated. But whether the querist is seeking individual electricity duty related information or that of industrial electricity info. This should have been an intial return question to the querist before casting reply by an expert.

Further, in my view individual bills of somebody (not relevant) may not be considered as a base for argument purpose. The proper document to rely upon would be notification, amendments etc.
