JUDGMENT

Petitioner challenges Exts.P4, P5, P6, P6(a) and P10 order. There is also a prayer claiming a refund of the amount allegedly due from the board.

2. It is not in dispute that pending the writ petition, the petitioner had availed the one time settlement scheme (OTS), and the liability of the petitioner amounting to Rs.1,10,76,583/- (Rupees one crore ten lakhs seventy six thousand five hundred and eighty three only) was reduced to Rs.22,27,559/- (Rupees twenty two lakhs twenty seven thousand five hundred and fifty nine only). The petitioner contends that they are entitled to a refund of the amount from the board, as there were mistakes in the bills issued to them.

3. Taking note of the above contention, this Court passed the following order on 25.11.2025:-

“There will be a direction to the Electricity Board to file an affidavit as to how the figure of Rs.22,27,559/- was arrived at, when the outstanding amount due from the consumer was Rs.1,10,76,583/-, and when W.P.(C) No.3053/2025 seeking refund of amounts, was pending consideration.

2. The affidavit shall also include the amounts, if any, paid by the petitioner towards the arrears due and also the balance payment towards the OT
