           Prayers in the writ petition are as follows:<\/p>\n
                 (i)    call for the records connected<\/p>\n
          with the case leading to Exts.P5, P9 and P9<\/p>\n
          (a) and quash the same by issuing a writ of<\/p>\n
          certiorari<\/p>\n
                 (ii)   declare that power restriction is<\/p>\n
          not applicable in the case of the petitioner in<\/p>\n
          the light     of Ext.P2        order and       Ext.P3<\/p>\n
          rehabilitation package introduced by the 5th<\/p>\n
          respondent<\/p>\n
                 (iii)  direct the respondents 1 to 4 to<\/p>\n
          refix the quota of the petitioner in the light of<\/p>\n
          Ext.P8 Board order if power restriction is<\/p>\n
          inevitable.\n<\/p>\n
     2.    Ext.P5 is a notice issued to the petitioner fixing the<\/p>\n
monthly quota as 810 units. This is on the basis of the interim<\/p>\n
order passed by the Regulatory Commission. Ext.P9 is a bill<\/p>\n
issued in terms thereof. Ext.P9(a) is the calculation statement<\/p>\n
WPC.28560\/08
\n                                : 2 :<\/span><\/p>\n
showing the amount of consumption for which the petitioner is<\/p>\n
liable to pay in excess under the interim order of the<\/p>\n
Commission and also Ext.P14 dated 24.7.2008.<\/p>\n
      3.   According to the petitioner, the petitioner is a sick<\/p>\n
unit and it was forced to stop the production with effect from<\/p>\n
15.10.2005. Thereafter, it is only necessary for me to refer<\/p>\n
the fact that the connection was restored on 3.3.2008. The<\/p>\n
consumption for the month of March 2008 is 1120.<\/p>\n
Apparently, Ext.P5 notice is issued taking into consideration<\/p>\n
the consumption for the month of March 2008. According to<\/p>\n
the petitioner, the petitioner is entitled to be treated as a new<\/p>\n
unit within the meaning of clause 2(c) of Ext.P14 order dated<\/p>\n
24.7.2008. The petitioner represented the matter before the<\/p>\n
3rd respondent vide Ext.P7. In Ext.P7, it is contended that the<\/p>\n
3rd respondent took the decision that the petitioner may be<\/p>\n
treated as a new consumer and the quota may be fixed<\/p>\n
accordingly if the unit was under lock out during the previous<\/p>\n
year. According to the petitioner, it is while so, Ext.P9 bill<\/p>\n
WPC.28560\/08
\n                                 : 3 :<\/span><\/p>\n
came to be issued and Ext.P9(a) calculation statement is<\/p>\n
issued.\n<\/p>\n
       4.    A counter affidavit is filed by the Assistant<\/p>\n
Executive Engineer apparently on behalf of the respondents.<\/p>\n
It is, inter alia, stated in the counter affidavit as follows. The<\/p>\n
supply was under disconnection till 2\/08 and consumption for<\/p>\n
March 2008 was taken as base average. It is also stated that<\/p>\n
the petitioner is considered as a new consumer for quota<\/p>\n
fixation because as per Ext.P14, new consumer is one who<\/p>\n
started functioning on or after 1.4.2008, for which the base<\/p>\n
average is 250 units\/KVA contract demand. Of course, they<\/p>\n
have set up a case that Ext.P7 was a confidential document<\/p>\n
produced.       It is stated that the instructions to the 4th<\/p>\n
respondent (apparently in Ext.P7) issued by the 3rd<\/p>\n
respondent was under the impression that the firm had<\/p>\n
consumed only a meager unit after reopening the plant. It is<\/p>\n
stated that sufficient details are available and quota of 12668<\/p>\n
units was proposed and accordingly Ext.R1(a) is issued.<\/p>\n
WPC.28560\/08
\n                                : 4 :<\/span><\/p>\n
      5.    Petitioner has filed a reply affidavit. Therein the<\/p>\n
petitioner has produced Ext.P13 interim order of the<\/p>\n
Commission and Ext.P14 order dated 24.7.2008.                The<\/p>\n
petitioner states that there is no dispute that the production of<\/p>\n
the petitioner’s unit was started only during 4\/2008 and it is<\/p>\n
stated that there is no rationale in the monthly quota fixed by<\/p>\n
the 2nd respondent in the case of the petitioner. A further<\/p>\n
affidavit is filed by the 3rd respondent herself. Therein, it is,<\/p>\n
inter alia, stated that the Board has issued Ext.R1(b) through<\/p>\n
which the Board has authorised the Agreement Authority to<\/p>\n
look into individual cases and to fix quotas. It is stated that if<\/p>\n
the petitioner has any grievance about the fixation of quota,<\/p>\n
the same could be raised before the Agreement Authority and<\/p>\n
this court need not go into the facts. The 1st respondent also<\/p>\n
relies on Ext.R1(c) judgment in another writ petition which is<\/p>\n
stated to be issued in similar circumstances. That apart, the<\/p>\n
3rd respondent has also stated that the averments in<\/p>\n
paragraph 6 of the counter affidavit should be read as follows:<\/p>\n
WPC.28560\/08
\n                               : 5 :<\/span><\/p>\n
                  ”   In paragraph 6 of the counter<\/p>\n
            affidavit what is meant was that “This<\/p>\n
            petitioner is not considered as a new<\/p>\n
            consumer for quota fixation because as per<\/p>\n
            B.O. dated 24.7.2008, new consumer is<\/p>\n
            those who started functioning on or after<\/p>\n
            1.4.2008. ” The word “not” was not included<\/p>\n
            due to a typographical error and from the<\/p>\n
            meaning conveyed by the whole paragraph,<\/p>\n
            no other meaning was intended or could be<\/p>\n
            assumed. ”\n<\/p>\n
      6.    I heard learned counsel for the petitioner Sri.Julian<\/p>\n
Xavier      and      learned     senior    standing     counsel<\/p>\n
Sri.C.K.Karunakaran.        Learned     counsel    for petitioner<\/p>\n
reiterates the stand that the petitioner is a sick unit and the<\/p>\n
petitioner is to be treated as a new unit within the meaning of<\/p>\n
clause 2(c) of Ext.P14 and quota may be fixed accordingly.<\/p>\n
He would reiterate the fact that the production commenced<\/p>\n
only in April 2008 even going by Ext.R1(a). He would further<\/p>\n
advance his grievance that if the petitioner is relegated back<\/p>\n
to the 4th respondent, he may not get justice there. Learned<\/p>\n
WPC.28560\/08
\n                                 : 6 :<\/span><\/p>\n
standing counsel would submit that the petitioner will not fall<\/p>\n
within the ambit of clause 2(c) of Ext.P14 as the connection<\/p>\n
was not given to the petitioner after 31.3.2008. The petitioner<\/p>\n
was having a connection much earlier.             It came to be<\/p>\n
disconnected. The connection was restored on 3.3.2008 by<\/p>\n
no stretch of imagination the petitioner can claim the benefit<\/p>\n
under clause 2(c). He submits that the consumption pattern<\/p>\n
of the petitioner is available for the previous year and clause 2<\/p>\n
(a) has set the fixation.     Learned standing counsel further<\/p>\n
submits that if the petitioner still has a grievance, he can<\/p>\n
certainly approach the 4th respondent in terms of Ext.R1(b)<\/p>\n
and seek relief.\n<\/p>\n
     7.     The first question is to be considered is whether<\/p>\n
the petitioner will fall under clause 2(c) of Ext.P14. It reads as<\/p>\n
follows:\n<\/p>\n
               ” Clause 2(c) – In respect of industries<\/p>\n
          provided with connection on or after 1.4.2008,<\/p>\n
          whose average cannot be worked out; the<\/p>\n
          consumption as detailed below shall be taken<\/p>\n
          as the base average consumption to work out<\/p>\n
WPC.28560\/08
\n                               : 7 :<\/span><\/p>\n
         the monthly quota of energy.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
               (i)   EHT Consumer – 400 Unit\/KVA –
\n         Contact Demand per month\n<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
               (ii)  HT Consumer – 250 Units\/KVA –
\n         Contact Demand per month.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
      8.   I am not impressed by the contention of the<\/p>\n
petitioner that the petitioner will fall within the ambit of clause<\/p>\n
2(c). Clause 2(c) will apply only if a connection is granted<\/p>\n
after 1.4.2008.    Admittedly, the petitioner was an existing<\/p>\n
consumer. The petitioner was given the connection prior to<\/p>\n
1.4.2008. The petitioner’s connection came to be dismantled<\/p>\n
and reconnected on 3.3.2008. I am of the view that in this<\/p>\n
case it cannot be treated as a connection provided after<\/p>\n
1.4.2008. If that be so, I would not lay any store by the<\/p>\n
noting in Ext.P7 by the 3rd respondent that the petitioner may<\/p>\n
be treated as a new consumer. It is certainly not open to the<\/p>\n
3rd respondent to act against the terms of the Board order.<\/p>\n
When the matter comes up before this court under Article 226<\/p>\n
of the Constitution, it should not carry weight, at any rate,<\/p>\n
when the terms of Ext.P14 are unambiguously clear.<\/p>\n
WPC.28560\/08
\n                               : 8 :<\/span><\/p>\n
Therefore, the case based on noting in Ext.P7 and clause 2<\/p>\n
(c) is only to be rejected. Clause 1(a) on which reliance is<\/p>\n
placed by the learned standing counsel, in my view, does not<\/p>\n
empower the authority to take the consumption for the period<\/p>\n
prior to 1.4.2007 also as contended by him. Therefore, it may<\/p>\n
be a case where the petitioner may not strictly fall within any<\/p>\n
of the clauses.     It is in such circumstances, one has to<\/p>\n
consider the effect of Ext.R1(b). Ext.R1(b) is dated 7.8.2008.<\/p>\n
Though learned counsel for the petitioner would contend that<\/p>\n
the petitioner may not strictly fall within the four categories<\/p>\n
specifically enumerated, the respondents contend that the<\/p>\n
four categories mentioned are only illustrations as the said<\/p>\n
effect is inevitable by use of the word “like”. At any rate, the<\/p>\n
learned standing counsel submits that the case of the<\/p>\n
petitioner can also be directed to be considered by the 4th<\/p>\n
respondent. In the light of this, I feel that the only relief that<\/p>\n
can be given to the petitioner is to relegate the petitioner to<\/p>\n
approach the 4th respondent in terms of Ext.R1(b).           The<\/p>\n
WPC.28560\/08
\n                               : 9 :<\/span><\/p>\n
statement of the learned standing counsel that the quota of<\/p>\n
the petitioner can be fixed as 12668 is recorded. Equally, it is<\/p>\n
recorded that the petitioner can approach the 4th respondent<\/p>\n
in terms of Ext.R1(b), if he is aggrieved by the said fixation<\/p>\n
and seek the fixation of another quota.\n<\/p>\n
     9.    Recording the above submissions, writ petition is<\/p>\n
disposed of directing that if the petitioner represents the<\/p>\n
matter before the 4th respondent, within one week from today,<\/p>\n
in terms of Ext.R1(b) order, the 4th respondent will take a<\/p>\n
decision in the matter in accordance with law, within one<\/p>\n
month from the date of filing of the representation. I only<\/p>\n
hope that he will act in the matter which will allay the<\/p>\n
apprehensions of the petitioner that he may not get justice<\/p>\n
from the 4th respondent.\n<\/p>\n
