Power distribution companies in Haryana, namely Uttar Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam (UHBVN) and Dakshin Haryana Bijli Vitran Nigam (DHBVN), have approached the Haryana Electricity Regulatory Commission (HERC) for amendments to Regulation 68 of the Multi-Year Tariff (MYT) Regulations, 2024. They are requesting to defer the recovery of the Fuel and Power Purchase Adjustment Surcharge (FPPAS) from consumers, proposing instead to recover the costs at a uniform rate of 47 paise per unit over subsequent financial years. This request comes as the companies aim to manage additional costs associated with fuel and power purchases more effectively. The HERC has initiated a public consultation process, allowing stakeholders to submit their objections and suggestions by May 1. A public hearing will take place on May 14 at the Commission's courtroom in Panchkula, where stakeholders can present their views. The Commission will consider public feedback before making a final decision, striving to balance the financial health of power utilities with consumer interests.
