D 8 - Projections and outlook on revenue gap 6.0 2.5 Outlook on Agricultural Consumption: The collection efficiency and metering<br />

would improve since there is an ef<strong>for</strong>t to meter IP sets and BJ/KJ installations.<br />

However because <strong>of</strong> the poor monsoons there would be an increase in agricultural<br />

consumption.This would affect revenues adversely.<br />

Outlook on <strong>Power</strong> Purchase Costs: Poor monsoons would result in decrease in<br />

hydel generation, which would mean an increase in thermal power purchase. This<br />

would increase the power purchase costs.<br />

Tariff Hike: The KERC has hiked tariffs <strong>for</strong> 2002-03. (Latest tariff order: July 1st<br />

2002)<br />

E Others 5.0 4.5<br />

> Quality and availability <strong>of</strong> MIS The KERC had directed KPTCL to improve its MIS System by the time <strong>of</strong> the<br />

second filing <strong>of</strong> tariff.<br />

FINAL SCORE 100.0 68.0<br />

Though the KERC opinion is quite negative about the MIS System, the data<br />

gathering exercise was relatively smooth. KPTCL and KPCL have been very<br />

prompt in providing data. One notable feature has been the generation <strong>of</strong> monthly<br />

status <strong>of</strong> <strong>Power</strong> <strong>Sector</strong> Re<strong>for</strong>ms underway and its monitoring in the state. Audited<br />

accounts till 2000-01 and the unaudited P&L <strong>for</strong> 2001-02 were made available.<br />
