Electricity Matters

Energy, electricity, and regulatory law is our core practice. We advise and represent generators, renewable energy developers, industries, housing societies, and consumers in disputes with distribution companies and regulators: tariff and open access matters, power purchase agreements, billing and supply disputes, theft and unauthorised-use notices, and connection issues. We appear before State Electricity Regulatory Commissions, the Appellate Tribunal for Electricity (APTEL), the Electricity Ombudsman, consumer forums, and High Courts.

FAQ

Questions we hear often.

Usually first to the Consumer Grievance Redressal Forum (CGRF) of the DISCOM, then to the Electricity Ombudsman. Depending on the matter, we may go to the State Electricity Regulatory Commission, a consumer commission, or the High Court. We pick the fastest route for your case.

Do not sign anything or pay under pressure. Send us the notice and the inspection report right away. Theft notices have strict timelines, and a proper reply at this stage can decide the whole case.

Yes. We move quickly for urgent interim relief so supply is restored while the bill dispute is decided separately. Call us as soon as the disconnection happens; timelines are short.
