Address: Vimalachal Apartment, 1088 Ponamallee High Road

Ny name is Piyush, I use to stay in Vimalachal Apartment but from Jan 2021 i shifted to Alwarpet. My flat is not been used by anyone since last 5 months. When i checked my bill amount for the unoccupied flat it mentions Rs. 8182 for 1470 units consumed. This is impossible as no one has entered in the flat since last 5 months how can the reading state that 1470 units have been consumed. The reading taken for 01.02.2021 dated, as per the earlier...

We have received a bill amount of Rs.2242/- mentioning that the previous assessment amount was taken for generating this bill.

Also, we were away for most of the time for the past 2 months and have started utilizing power supply only from this week onwards. Hence, the bill amount should...
