NKDA, constituted under the New Town Kolkata Development Authority Act, 2007, qualifies as a local authority; however, the service recipient is WTL, not NKDA, as payment flows from NKDA to WTL and then to the applicant on a back-to-back basis. Consequently, the applicant does not directly supply services to the local authority.
