approach the Commission for tariff revision. The Commission also directs that,

henceforth, the TNEB should submit a Tariff Proposal for any financial year by

the end of December of the previous financial year. In other words, the

Commission expects the TNEB to submit a tariff revision proposal for FY 2004-05

before the end of December 2003, in case the TNEB desires to revise the tariffs

for FY 2004-05.”

1.1.4 The TNEB did not come before the Commission for revision of retail tariff till January

2010. In the meantime, Electricity Regulatory Commission Act, 1998 was repealed and

1.6.1 In the State of Tamil Nadu, Tamil Nadu Electricity Regulatory Commission in exercise

of powers vested in it under the Electricity Act, 2003 (Act) passes the Tariff Order.

1.7 Brief Note on Tariff Filing and Public Hearing

1.7.1 The Tariff Petition TP 2 of 2011 filed by TANTRANSCO is the first Tariff Petition for

fixation of Transmission tariff for the year 2012-13 after unbundling and issue of transfer

scheme by the Government of Tamil Nadu. The Transfer scheme dated 19-10-2010 is

enclosed as Ann IV. This Transfer Scheme is a provisional Transfer Scheme and

addresses various issues like the transfer of assets and revaluation of assets to partly

address the accumulated losses. This Transfer Scheme also envisages deployment of staff

of the erstwhile TNEB in the TANGEDCO and TANTRANSCO. The Commission in its

earlier Tariff Order No. 3 of 2010 dated 31-07-2010 had suggested in line with the

National Electricity Policy and the Tariff Policy that the accumulated losses should not

be passed on to the successor entities and financial restructuring has to be resorted to, to

clean up the Balance Sheet of the successor companies and allow them to start on a clean

slate so that the successor entities can start performing better. The Commission had sent

statutory advices to Government of Tamil Nadu on 27.10.10 and 19.10.10, copies of

statutory advices are appended as Ann V and Ann VI.

1.7.2 The Government of Tamil Nadu has issued an amended Transfer Scheme on 02-01-2012

which is appended as Ann VII. This Transfer Scheme is also provisional and is subject to

revision. Besides various other issues, both the Transfer Scheme specified that the

retirement benefits of the employees of TNEB/ successor entities will be met out of the

Revenue Account.

Page 10: TAMIL NADU ELECTRICITY REGULATORY COMMISSION

6 | P a g e

1.7.3 It is also observed from the website of Government of Tamil Nadu that in page no. 40 of

Policy Notes-FY 2011-12, Energy Department, Government of Tamil Nadu that:

“The Board’s borrowings are being utilized to meet Capital Expenditure, Loan

repayments and managing revenue deficit”

1.7.4 Hence, it is clear that TANTRANSCO has been diverting Capital borrowings to meet its

principal repayment and its revenue deficit, in addition to meeting Capital expenditure

requirement.

1.7.5 Over a period of years, the Capital Account and the Revenue Account has been mixed up

in the operation of the TNEB and an attempt is being made in this order to segregate this

to bring financial discipline in the successor entities. TNEB and successor entities have

reported accumulated losses of around Rs. 50,000 crores over the years. The Commission

in its earlier Order dated 31-07-2010 and through its various Statutory advices has

suggested to the Government of Tamil Nadu to take care of the accumulated losses up to

the unbundling period by way of financial restructuring so that the burden of the same is

not passed on to the consumers. This suggestion is also in line with Para 5.4.3 of the

National Electricity Policy which is extracted below:

“5.4.3 For achieving efficiency gains proper restructuring of distribution utilities is

essential. Adequate transition financing support would also be necessary for these

utilities. Such support should be arranged linked to attainment of predetermined

efficiency improvements and reduction in cash losses and putting in place appropriate

governance structure for insulating the service providers from extraneous interference

while at the same time ensuring transparency and accountability. For ensuring financial

viability and sustainability, State Governments would need to restructure the liabilities of

the State Electricity Boards to ensure that the successor companies are not burdened

with past liabilities. The Central Government would also assist the States, which develop

a clear roadmap for turnaround, in arranging transition financing from various sources

which shall be linked to predetermined improvements and efficiency gains aimed at

attaining financial viability and also putting in place appropriate governance

structures.”

1.7.6 The Commission hereby directs TANTRANSCO not to mix capital accounts and revenue

accounts and maintain them separately, hereafter.

Page 11: TAMIL NADU ELECTRICITY REGULATORY COMMISSION

7 | P a g e

1.7.7 Keeping the above major issues in mind, the Commission would like to attempt

restoration of the electricity industry in the State of Tamil Nadu so that the utility is able

to undertake future expansion of transmission system for improving quality of service to

end consumers.

1.8 Various suggestions and objections that were raised on TANTRANSCO’s Petition after

issuance of the Public Notice both in writing as well as during the Public Hearing, along

with TANTRANSCO’s response and the Commission's rulings have been detailed in

Chapter 2 of this Order.

2 ISSUE WISE SUMMARY OF VIEWS, COMMENTS, AND SUGGESTIONS ON THE PETITION, TANTRANSCO’S RESPONSE AND RULINGS OF THE COMMISSION

The following are the views/ objections/ suggestions expressed by Members of the State

Advisory Committee and other stakeholders in their written submissions and in the Public

hearings.

2.1 Objections, Issues and Suggestions

2.1.1 The transmission charges should be fixed based on the acceptable norms per MW and not

based on the actual costs claimed by TANTRANSCO as this will lead to additional

impact on consumers. It is suggested that not more than 5% increase should be allowed

over the existing charges.

2.1.2 The proposed increase in transmission charges is about 2 ½ times from the existing Rs.

2,781/- per MW per day to Rs. 6,221.58 per MW per day as applicable for the year 2012-

13, which is not justified, as it will push up the wheeling cost to the industries procuring

power under Open Access to meet their shortfall on account of R&C measures of

TANGEDCO.

2.1.3 Tamil Nadu Electricity Consumers Association submitted that TANTRANSCO has

miscalculated the transmission charges as transmission capacity figures are wrong. It

should be related to the installed and allocated capacity of the stations from where the

power is drawn, which may be as under:

S. No Particulars 2010-11 2011-12 2012-13

1

Net annual total transmission

charges (Rs. Lakhs) 2,33,291.80 2,60,792.80 2,78,182.60

2

Net installed and allocated capacity

(MW) 28299.30 28299.30 28299.30

3 Transmission charges (Rs./MW/day) 2,258.56 2,524.80 2,693.25

Page 13: TAMIL NADU ELECTRICITY REGULATORY COMMISSION

9 | P a g e

2.1.4 Transmission charges to be recovered should be based on actual generation, i.e., installed

capacity adjusted to PLF.

2.1.5 For calculating the transmission capacity, due weightage should be given to the PLF of

each generating source and charges should be recovered based on actual generation.

2.1.6 The transmission charges should be fixed based on kWh basis wheeled instead of

installed capacity in MW.

2.1.7 The revision of transmission charges, scheduling and system operation charges and

reactive energy charges should only be proposed for FY 2012-13 and not retrospectively

for 2010-11 and 2011-12.

2.1.8 The transmission charges are proposed to be increased, even though transmission

capacity has not been increased.

2.1.9 Energy Audit has not been properly undertaken by TANTRANSCO. Current

Transformer/Power Transformer and meters provided on feeders are not being checked

for their correctness.

2.1.10 The reactive energy charges are mainly attributable to Wind Energy Generators. For

other Generators of firm power who can keep equilibrium in the power factor and pump

reactive energy in the specified limit to maintain grid voltage, for which incentive needs

to be provided.

2.1.11 Scheduling and System Operation Charges should be waived off for the generators who

have installed SCADA system at their own cost.

2.2 TANTRANSCO’s Response

2.2.1 The transmission tariff of Rs. 2,781/- per MW per day for Long Term Open Access and

Rs. 28.96 per MWh for Short Term Open Access was being charged on the basis of the

Commission’s Order dated 15-5-2006. There is no increase in the tariff for the past 10

years but TNEB had managed to fulfil its social obligations in the midst of escalation of

prices in all its business activities to supply power which resulted in accumulation of

huge loss. A portion of losses of erstwhile TNEB has been apportioned to

TANTRANSCO during the course of restructuring.

Page 14: TAMIL NADU ELECTRICITY REGULATORY COMMISSION

10 | P a g e

2.2.2 In order to discharge its responsibility as a transmission licensee, adequate financial

stability has to be ensured to enable TANTRANSCO to create well equipped and

advanced transmission infrastructure.

2.2.3 The marginal transmission cost for every incremental MW for 2010-11 works out to be

Rs. 148.13 lakh as compared to 2005-06.

2.2.4 The transmission charges proposed for 2010-11 has been arrived in accordance with the

existing and proposed transmission capacity. The transmission capacity has been derived

by applying weightage to the PLF of each generating source.

2.2.5 The transmission charges for the Short Term Open Access Consumers have been claimed

at 50% to that of the Long Term Open Access as per the norms of CERC. The Scheduling

and system operating charges has been proposed as Rs. 2,000/- for both Long Term and

Short Term Open Access Consumers, in line with the approved rates by CERC.

2.2.6 Regarding the increase for the Short Term Open Access, it is stated that the SLDC has to

observe all the technical and administrative formalities as observed to the long term

customers for the said functioning.

2.2.7 In respect of Reactive energy charges, the rate has been prayed for 10 paisa per KVARh

as approved by CERC considering the curtailment of VAR drawl by a consumer. This

would improve the system voltage and in turn ensure quality power.

2.2.8 The gross block of assets and depreciation shown in the petition are based on the assets as

envisaged in the Transfer Scheme. The transmission charges determined in Order no. 3

dated 31-7-2010, was provisional in nature and subject to revision based on actuals, as

per the Commission Order itself.

2.2.9 The evacuation lines on Deposit Contribution Work (DCW) basis and the expenditure

incurred by the consumer has been shown as Consumer Contribution. DCW works were

carried out in accordance with the necessities of the consumers and the lines so laid have

been taken care by TANTRANSCO for maintenance for which levy of transmission

charges is necessitated.

Page 15: TAMIL NADU ELECTRICITY REGULATORY COMMISSION

Commission’s View

2.2.10 Intra-State Transmission Charges are being determined by the Commission in accordance

with “Tamil Nadu Electricity Regulatory Commission (Terms and Conditions for the

determination of Tariff) Regulations, 2005” and cannot be based on normative cost as

suggested by some stakeholders.

2.2.11 Intra-State Transmission charges as determined by the Commission in its Order dated

15.5.2006, was based on cost base of Rs 730.62 Crore, whereas TANTRANSCO’s claim

in this Petition for FY 2012-13 is Rs 2781.83 Crore. Hence, the cost has increased around

4 times, which will have a bearing on Transmission tariff.

2.2.12 Evacuation capacity of a transmission system is not always equal to installed capacity of

the Generation Stations adjusted to PLF. The Commission has considered transmission

capacity of 13000 MW for FY 2012-13, based on system study results submitted by

TANTRANSCO.

2.2.13 Transmission tariff determined by the Commission cannot be determined on retrospective

basis and for the purpose of this Order the Commission has done provisional truing up for

FY 2010-11 and FY 2011-12. Revenue Gap pertaining to FY 2010-11 and FY 2011-12 is

carried forward and added to the revenue requirement of FY 2012-13.

2.2.14 Transaction between TANTRANSCO and TANGEDCO should be clear as they are

separate entities.

2.2.15 Transmission is a fixed cost business and recovery of the cost is based on transmission

capacity (MW) created and all CERC Regulations provides for recovery on MW basis. If

Transmission cost recovery is linked to kWh basis, it may lead to under or over

recoveries, depending upon generation achieved.

2.2.16 Some generators suggested that scheduling and operation charges should be waived off

for generators who have made SCADA system at their own cost. The Commission is of

the opinion that scheduling and operation charges collected by System Operation are

provided for the recovery of costs incurred by SLDC and is not linked to the

conditionality of SCADA system established by generators.

2.2.17 It is necessary to install Availability Based Tariff (ABT) compliant meters for the

purpose of measurement of real power and reactive power at interface points in intervals

Page 16: TAMIL NADU ELECTRICITY REGULATORY COMMISSION

12 | P a g e

of 15 minutes. The ABT compliant meters are essential for the purpose of proper grid

management, sending commercial signals for ramping up / backing down of generation

and increase / decrease of load.

3 ANNUAL TRANSMSSION CHARGES

The Commission for the purpose of Determination of Annual Transmission Charges for Tamil

Nadu Transmission Corporation Limited (hereinafter referred to as TANTRANSCO) has

analysed the following components:

Operation and Maintenance Expenses

3.1.1 The Operation and Maintenance Expenses comprises of the following:

a. Employee Expenses

b. Administration and General Expenses

c. Repair and Maintenance Expenses

3.1.2 TANTRANSCO in its Petition has projected employee costs by taking into account

employee strength and salary profile. On an average, 4% increase is proposed over FY

2010-11, for all the account heads in the FY 2011-12 and for the ensuing year FY 2012-

13.

3.1.3 It is also submitted that terminal benefits mainly include Gratuity & Commuted pension

paid to the retiring employees. TANTRANSCO submitted that Terminal benefits have

been growing over the past 5 years due to higher number of retiring personnel. Thus

terminal benefits expenses are estimated to show an increasing trend over the years.

3.1.4 TANTRANSCO submitted that since separate accounts are maintained for Generation

function, cost pertaining to generation function is removed from total cost of erstwhile

TNEB, to arrive at cost pertaining to T&D function. The total expenses up to 31-10-2010

for the financial year 2010-11 and the balance cost for T&D segment have been

apportioned on the basis of number of employees and gross fixed assets. For the period

from 1-11-2010 to 31-3-2011, the actual expenses of TANTRANSCO have been

considered.

Page 18: TAMIL NADU ELECTRICITY REGULATORY COMMISSION

“25. Operation and Maintenance Expenses

1. The operation and maintenance expenses shall be derived on the basis of actual

operation and maintenance expenses for the past five years previous to current year

based on the audited Annual Accounts excluding abnormal operation and

maintenance expenses, if any, after prudence check by the Commission. The

Commission may, if considered necessary engage Consultant / Auditors in the

process of prudence check for correctness.

Page 20: TAMIL NADU ELECTRICITY REGULATORY COMMISSION

16 | P a g e

2. The average of such normative operation and maintenance expenses after prudence

check shall be escalated at the rate of 4% per annum to arrive at operation and

maintenance expenses for current year i.e. base year and ensuing year.

3. The base operation and maintenance expenses so determined shall be escalated

further at the rate of 4% per annum to arrive at permissible operation and

maintenance expenses for the relevant years of tariff period.

…”

3.1.10 The Commission observed that TANTRANSCO has submitted component wise O&M

Expenses for previous 6 years, i.e., FY 2005-06 to FY 2010-11. The Commission also

observed that R&M Expense as submitted by TANTRANSCO is within the limit

approved by the Commission in its last Tariff Order. The projection of FY 2011-12 and

FY 2012-13 is also consistent with Regulation 25 of TNERC Tariff Regulations. Hence,

the Commission has approved the R&M expenses as sought for by TANTRANSCO.

3.1.11 As regards A&G Expenses in FY 2010-11, the Commission notes that all components of

A&G Expenses except Miscellaneous charges as claimed by TANTRANSCO are

reasonable. The Commission observed that TANTRANSCO has submitted miscellaneous

charges as Rs. 10.39 Crore. However the last 5 years average for miscellaneous charges

is around Rs. 8.88 Crore. In absence of any explanation submitted by TANTRANSCO in

its Petition towards miscellaneous charges, the Commission has considered the same as

Rs. 8.88 Crore. The Commission further observed that the projection of FY 2011-12 and

FY 2012-13 is also consistent with Regulation 25 of TNERC Tariff Regulations. Hence,

the Commission has approved the A&G expenses as sought for by TANTRANSCO.

3.1.12 As regards employee expenses, the Commission finds that the gross employee expenses

as claimed by TANTRANSCO from FY 2010-11 to FY 2012-13 are reasonable.

Therefore the Commission has considered the same from FY 2010-11 to FY 2012-13.

The Commission has considered escalation of 4% on gross employee expense submitted

for FY 2010-11. However, the Commission observed that the average capitalisation of

employee expenses for period of FY 2005-06 to FY 2009-10 is 9%, whereas the

petitioner has projected a capitalisation of Rs 37.44 Crore for all the three years of

Control Period, which is around 6% of gross employee expenses of respective years. The

petitioner has also not substantiated the reason for such assumptions. Hence, the

Commission has assumed average capitalisation of 9% for the purpose of calculation of

net employee expenses. The summary of O&M expenses approved by the Commission is

as under:

two companies based on the segregation notified by Government of Tamil Nadu vide

G.O. Ms. 100 dated 1910-2010.

b) During the year, for additions and deductions for the transmission assets (i.e. Plant and

Machinery and Lines & Cables) a ratio of 55:45 is adopted for segregation between

Transmission and Distribution. This is the overall ratio of transmission and distribution

assets as per provisional transfer scheme notified vide G.O. Ms. 100 dated 19-10-2011.

3.2.2 TANTRANSCO submitted that segregation of fixed assets for FY 2010-11 is done based

on the following:

a) During the year additions and deductions up to 31.10.2010 for the transmission assets at

distribution circles (i.e. Plant and Machinery and Lines & Cables) a ratio of 55:45 is

adopted for segregation between Transmission and Distribution, which has been the

overall ratio of transmission and distribution assets as per provisional transfer scheme

notified vide G.O. Ms. 100 dated 19-10-2011.

b) The actual addition and deduction to the assets of transmission circles from November

2010 to March 2011 are segregated based on the monthly accounts of November 2010 to

March 2011 of TANTRANSCO circles.

3.2.3 TANTRANSCO submitted that addition to fixed assets for FY 2011-12 and 2012-13 is

based on:

a) Capital expenditure to be undertaken and its proportion of completion in each financial

year considering the past trend.

3.3 Capital Expenditure and Capitalisation

3.3.1 Regulation 17 (5) of the Tariff Regulations, 2005 and Regulation 3 (v) of the Tariff

Regulation under MYT framework specifies that the licensee shall get the capital

investment plan approved by the Commission before filing ARR and Application for

determination of Tariff. The TANTRANSCO has not complied with this provision.

Page 23: TAMIL NADU ELECTRICITY REGULATORY COMMISSION

19 | P a g e

3.3.2 The TANTRANSCO submitted the capital investment plan for 2010-11 to 2012-13 vide

its letter dated 09-02-2012 without capitalization schedule. This will be dealt with

separately by the Commission and its impact will be reflected in the Final Truing up for

FY 2010-11.

3.3.3 TANTRANSCO in reply to the deficiency raised by the Commission has submitted

following capital expenditure:

Commission’s View:

3.3.4 The Commission observed that the TANTRANSCO has over projected capital

expenditure plan in its last tariff petition and sought provisional approval from the

Commission. However actual Capital expenditure incurred vis-a-vis the capital

expenditure submitted in the last Tariff Petition for FY 2010-11 and FY 2011-12, is

around 58% and 80% respectively. The Commission further observed that the

capitalisation is even lower, i.e., around 52% and 49%, respectively. The Comparison of

actual figures as compared to figures in submitted in the last Tariff Petition is as under:

these Regulations, for determination of provisional tariff in advance of the anticipated

date of completion of the project, based on the capital expenditure actually incurred upto

the date of making of the application or a date prior to making of the application, duly

audited and certified by the statutory auditors, and the provisional tariff shall be charged

from the date of commercial operation of the respective units of the generation station or

the line or sub-station of the transmission system.”

3.3.6 The capital investment plan requires further analysis and explanation from

TANTRANSCO before according approval of cost proposed by TANTRANSCO.

3.5 Interest expenses

3.5.1 TANTRANSCO submitted the following basis of segregation of Loans between

TANGEDCO and TANTRANSCO:

a) REC and PFC loans are apportioned between TANGEDCO and TANTRANSCO as

per the provisional Balance Sheet mentioned in the G.O. Ms. No. 100, dated 19-10-

2010.

b) Generic loans (i.e.) loans availed from Banks, TNPFC, LIC, HUDCO and funds

raised through private placement of bonds are apportioned between TANGEDCO and

TANTRANSCO in the ratio of 40 : 60.

c) Due to non-revision of tariff, there is huge accumulated loss and huge borrowings.

TANTRANSCO has to repay the interest on loan and repayment of principal has

considerably increased. In order to meet out the huge repayment of loan by

TANTRANSCO, the borrowings have been increased to that extent.

d) For FY 2011-12, interest is being calculated at the average rate of interest for the

previous year outstanding balance. For the current year borrowing, interests are being

calculated at the rate of 11.75% p.a. for six months for the financial year 2011-12. In

respect of REC, PFC, TNPFC, Commercial Bank Loans and other loans, interests are

calculated on actual basis.

e) For FY 2012-13, interest is being calculated at the average rate of interest for the

previous year outstanding balance. For the current year borrowing, interests are being

calculated at the rate of 12.00%, 10.00% p.a., 11.75% p.a. and 10.50% p.a. for six

months for the financial year 2012-13 in respect of TNEB Bonds, REC, PFC,

TNPFC, and Commercial Bank Loans, respectively. Interest on LIC loan and

HUDCO are being worked on actual basis.

f) The TANTRANSCO’s (erstwhile TNEB) entire programmed capital expenditures,

repayment of loan, and payment of interest and also part of the other revenue

expenses are to be met out through borrowed funds in view of the non-availability of

internal source of funds due to non-rationalization of tariff.

Rural Electrification Corporation Ltd.

g) TNEB/TANTRANSCO has been availing loans from REC from the year 1970-1971

onwards to implement the system improvement. The REC interest rate is applicable

as on the date of disbursement of loan and not on the date of the sanction of loan. The

Page 29: TAMIL NADU ELECTRICITY REGULATORY COMMISSION

25 | P a g e

period of repayment of principal is 13 years (including moratorium period of 3 years).

The loan drawl period is 3 years for the distribution scheme and will be extended up

to one year at the request of the borrower. Each and every reimbursement of claim on

each scheme loan is treated as separate loan since the rate of interest differs.

Power Finance Corporation Ltd.

h) Power Finance Corporation Ltd., New Delhi, is also extending financial assistance for

specific Transmission and Distribution Schemes and also power projects. In addition

to this, short term loan for a period of six months to one year has also been availed to

meet expenditure.

HUDCO

i) HUDCO is providing financial assistance for a period of 15 years. The repayment of

loan is to be made in 56 quarterly installments. The present rate of interest is 13% p.a.

floating. As and when the interest rate increases/ reduces, the same effect will be

reflected in the rate of interest.

Life Insurance Corporation of India:

j) TNEB/TANTRANSCO has availed loan from Life Insurance Corporation of India.

The period of loan is 15 years. The repayment of loan is equal annual/semiannual

installments.

Commercial Banks:

k) TANTRANSCO is availing Medium term loans from commercial banks for the

purpose of meeting the capital expenditure and short term loan for meeting the

mismatch of the cash flow. The loans availed from the banks are being utilized for

meeting power purchase, payment commitments, repayment of principal and payment

of interest and other inevitable payments. The short term and medium term loans

carry an interest rate of more than 12.00% p.a.

3.5.2 Section 131 of Electricity Act 2003: “Vesting of Property of Board in State Government”

states as under:

“131. (1) With effect from the date on which a transfer scheme, prepared by the State

Government to give effect to the objects and purposes of this Act, is published or such

further date as may be stipulated by the State Government (hereafter in this Part

referred to as the effective date), any property, interest in property, rights and

liabilities which immediately before the effective date belonged to the State Electricity

Board (hereafter referred to as the Board) shall vest in the State Government on such

terms as may be agreed between the State Government and the Board.

(2) Any property, interest in property, rights and liabilities vested in the State

Government under sub-section (1) shall be re-vested by the State Government in a

Government company or in a company or companies, in accordance with the transfer

scheme so published along with such other property, interest in property, rights and

liabilities of the State Government as may be stipulated in such scheme, on such terms

and conditions as may be agreed between the State Government and such company or

companies being State Transmission Utility or generating company or transmission

licensee or distribution licensee, as the case may be :

Provided that the transfer value of any assets transferred hereunder shall be

determined, as far as may be, based on the revenue potential of such assets at such

terms and conditions as may be agreed between the State Government and the State

Transmission Utility or generating company or transmission licensee or distribution

licensee, as the case may be.

(3) Notwithstanding anything contained in this section, where,-

(a) the transfer scheme involves the transfer of any property or rights to any person or

undertaking not wholly owned by the State Government, the scheme shall give effect to

the transfer only for fair value to be paid by the transferee to the State Government;

(b) a transaction of any description is effected in pursuance of a transfer scheme, it

shall be binding on all persons including third parties and even if such persons or

third parties have not consented to it.” Emphasis Supplied

3.5.3 The Commission has considered loan allocated in the Transfer Scheme to

TANTRANSCO, for the purpose of opening loan balalnce for TANTRANSCO. The

Commission has also considered the Gross Interest expenses as submitted by

TANTRANSCO in the Petition.

3.5.4 As regards capitalisation of interest expenses, the Commission has considered the actual

capitalisation of interest expenses in FY 2010-11 as submitted by TANTRANSCO. For

FY 2011-12 and FY 2012-13, the Commission has considered the capitalisation of

interest expenses as 10% of average of opening and closing work-in-progress for

respective years. The capitalisation of interest expenses as calculated by the Commission

is tabulated below:

3.5.5 The Commission has observed in many places in this Order that there is a mix up

between the capital account and the revenue account. Equity as well as capital

borrowings have been diverted from time to time to meet the revenue expenses. Equity

being the owner’s investment, the Commission has taken a view that the return on equity

shall not be permitted if equity has been diverted for meeting revenue expenses. Further,

borrowings are also more than the investment shown for capital expenditure. This clearly

brings out the fact that capital borrowings have also been diverted for revenue

expenditure. This is also recognized by the policy paper which has been published in the

Government of Tamil Nadu Website.

3.5.6 The Regulations of the Commission are for normal situations and does not cover a

situation which is encountered now. Therefore, the Commission has to take a practical

view on this issue. The option available to the Commission is to disallow the interest

costs on the entire borrowings in excess of capital works which will be in line with the

Regulation but such a move would create a lot of confusion and may also affect the

borrowing ability of the TANGEDCO / TANTRANSCO. The proposal regarding

revaluation of assets in the two Transfer Schemes already issued by the Government of

Tamil Nadu may address the balance sheet problems but will not generate additional cash

to repay the existing loans which were borrowed. Loans would be carried forward for

final settlement. This issue may also be covered by the two committees constituted by

Government of India. viz., Shunglu Committee and Chaturvedi Committee. Shunglu

Committee has already submitted its report which is available in the website of Planning

Commission. The report of the Chaturvedi Committee is not available in public domain

yet. Under these circumstances, Commission is allowing the interest on entire borrowing

duly considering the loans shown in the Transfer Schemes and provisionally allows such

interest, subject to final adjustment when the audited accounts are made available. This

is also further subject to the actions taken by the appropriate authorities as well as the

Page 34: TAMIL NADU ELECTRICITY REGULATORY COMMISSION

30 | P a g e

TANGEDCO / TANTRANSCO with regard to handling of the past liabilities based on

the outcome of the above referred two reports and implementation thereof.

3.6 Return on Equity

3.6.1 TANTRANSCO in its Petition has submitted that it has allocated equity to Transmission

function based on Gross Fixed Assets and Return on Equity at 14% (post-tax) is

calculated. Return on Equity as sought by TANTRANSCO is as under:

Table 21: Return on Equity submitted by TANTRANSCO

Return on Equity (%) 14% 14% 14%

ROE 180.59 225.81 230.89

Commission’s View:

3.6.2 Regulation 21 of TNERC Tariff Regulations states as under:

“21. Debt-Equity Ratio

For the purpose of determination of tariff, debt-equity ratio as on the date of

commercial operation of Generating Station and transmission projects, sub-station,

distribution lines or capacity expanded after the notification of these Regulations

shall be 70:30. Where equity employed is more than 30% the amount of equity shall

be limited to 30% and the balance amount shall be considered as loans, advanced at

the weighted average rate of interest and for weighted average tenor of the long term

debt component of the investment.

Provided that in case of a Generating Company or other licensees, where actual

equity employed is less than 30%, the actual debt and equity shall be considered for

determination of return on equity in tariff computation.”

3.6.3 Funding pattern of TANTRANSCO is as under:

Table 22: Funding Pattern

(in Rs Crore)

Particulars FY 2010-11 FY 2011-12 FY 2012-13

Capital Expenditure (Capex) 1003.39 1285.25 2280.83

Loan Borrowing 2927.01 5515.5 5475

Equity 444.65 323.04 36.24

3.6.4 The Commission observed that the loan borrowing is more than the capital expenditure

incurred by TANTRANSCO. The Commission also observed that TANTRANSCO has

submitted equity addition from FY 2010-11 to FY 2012-13. The Commission is of the

view that since the loan borrowing is more than the capital expenditure incurred from FY

2010-11 to FY 2012-13; the equity infusion shown by TANTRANSCO has been diverted

to revenue accounts and has been deployed for meeting Revenue expenditure. Therefore

the Commission has not allowed any Return on Equity from FY 2010-11 to FY 2012-13.

3.7 Other Debits and Prior Period Income

3.7.1 TANTRANSCO has accounted material cost variance, extra ordinary expenses, etc.,

under this head.

3.7.2 The expenses projected under this head are within the limit approved in the last Tariff

Order. Hence, the Commission accepts the projection of TANTRANSCO and approved

Other debits are shown in the table below:

3.7.3 The Commission has accepted the prior period income of Rs 6.38 Crore projected by

TANTRANSCO in its Petition for FY 2010-11.

3.8 Interest on Borrowing for Working Capital

3.8.1 The TANTRANSCO has claimed interest on working capital as a part of Interest on

Loan.

3.8.2 TANTRANSCO has been borrowing (short term loan / cash credit/ overdraft) for

working capital and interest on such borrowing is included along with interest on capital

loan and allocated to all the functions.

3.8.3 Hence, interest on working capital is not allowed separately.

3.9 Revenue from Transmission Charges for FY 2010-11

3.9.1 TANTRANSCO has prayed for redetermination of Transmission charges for FY 2010-11

and FY 2011-12, i.e., on retrospective basis

3.9.2 The Commission is of the opinion that tariff cannot be determined on retrospective basis

and for the purpose of this Order the Commission has done provisional truing up for FY

2010-11 and FY 2011-12, based on the revenue from transmission charges approved by

the Commission in its Order dated 31-7-2010.

3.9.3 The Commission in its Order dated 31-7-2010 has approved revenue from transmission

charges as Rs 1785.84 Crore and Rs 1916.58 Crore for FY 2010-11 and FY 2011-12,

respectively and the same has been considered for the purpose of true up.

3.9.4 Revenue Gap pertaining to FY 2010-11 and FY 2011-12 is carried forward and added to

the revenue requirement of FY 2012-13.

4 TRANSMISSION TARIFF

4.1 AVAILABLE TRANSMISSION CAPACITY

4.1.1 TANTRANSCO has arrived at the available capacity of transmission system for FY

2010-11, FY 2011-12 and FY 2012-13 as 8279.61 MW, 10646.47 MW and 12250.02

MW, based on the normative Plant Load Factor (PLF) of the generating system including

contracted supply connected to the grid.

4.1.2 TANTRANSCO has also proposed the postage stamp method so that uniform

transmission charges per MW taking the entire State as one segment could be arrived at

by dividing the annual transmission charges by the available capacity.

4.1.3 The CERC in Appendix IV to their CERC Tariff Regulation, 2009 have detailed the

procedures for calculation of transmission system availability and the formulae for

calculation of availability of each category of transmission element have been given.

4.1.4 The transmission system in TANTRANSCO does not have split up information on

different transmission line segments and other transmission elements. In the absence of

required information, the procedure outlined in CERC’s regulation cannot be followed.

4.1.5 The Commission has adopted the following definition for “Allotted Transmission

Capacity” in Tariff Regulations based on the guidelines in CERC’s Tariff Regulations.

“Allotted Transmission Capacity means the power transfer in MW between the specified

point of injection and point of drawal allowed to a long-term open access customer on

the intra-state transmission system under the normal circumstances and the expression

“allotment of transmission capacity” shall be construed accordingly.” Emphasis

supplied

4.1.6 As per Regulation 59 of TNERC’s Tariff Regulations, the transmission charges payable

by an open access customer shall be calculated by dividing the Aggregate transmission

charges by the sum of allotted transmission capacity to all the long-term open access

customers of the intra-state transmission system and multiplied by the capacity allotted to

that long-term open access customer.

4.1.7 However, the Commission is of the opinion that transmission capacity should be

determined based on system studies and hence, the Commission raised a query on the

Page 40: TAMIL NADU ELECTRICITY REGULATORY COMMISSION

36 | P a g e

issue, asking TANTRANSCO to submit the maximum transmission capacity of the

System.

4.1.8 TANTRANSCO confirmed that total transmission capacity of TANTRANSCO is 13000

MW for FY 2012-13.

4.1.9 The Commission has considered the available transmission capacity from 13000 MW for

FY 2012-13, based on the submission of TANTRANSCO on query raised by the

Commission on maximum transmission capacity of the State.

4.2 Transmission Charges payable by Short-term Customers

4.2.1 TANTRANSCO submitted that short-term open access consumer and inter-State OA

consumers using Intra-State network shall be charged at 50% of transmission charges

applicable to long-term access consumer on MWhr basis.

4.2.2 CERC in its Order dated 29.4.2011 on Approval of Transmission Service Agreement,

Revenue Sharing Agreement, Billing, Collection and Disbursement Procedure under

Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (Sharing of Transmission Charges and

Losses), Regulations, 2010 ruled that:

“8.3 Point of Connection (PoC) Charges for Long Term Access, Medium Term

Open Access and Short Term Open Access

8.2.1 There shall be no differentiation in PoC charges, as determined by the

Implementing Agency for the Application Period, among the long-term access,

medium-term open access and short-term open access to the ISTS.”

4.2.3 The Commission based on above mentioned CERC Regulation, rules that there shall be

no differentiation in Intra-State transmission charges, among the long-term access,

medium-term open access and short-term open access to the Intra-State Transmission

system.

4.3.2 The Commission accepts the submission of TANTRANSCO.

4.4 SCHEDULING AND SYSTEM OPERATION CHARGES

4.4.1 TANTRANSCO has submitted that Scheduling and System Operating Charges should be

Rs. 2000 per day or part of the day for long term as well as short term open access

customers, as approved by Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (CERC).

Page 42: TAMIL NADU ELECTRICITY REGULATORY COMMISSION

38 | P a g e

4.4.2 The Commission in its Order No. 2 dated May 15, 2006 fixed composite Scheduling and

System Operation Charges on the basis of charges specified by CERC and Other

Commissions which are as under:

a. Long Term Open Access Consumers-Rs. 1000 per day or part thereof

b. Short Term Open Access Consumers- Rs. 500 per day per transaction.

4.4.3 Section-17 of CERC (Open Access in Inter-state Transmission) Regulations, 2008 states

as under:

“Operating Charges

17 (1) Operating charges at the rate of Rs. 2,000 /- per day or part of the day for

each bilateral transaction for each of the Regional Load Despatch Centre

involved and at the rate of Rs.2,000 /- per day or part of the day for each

State Load Despatch Centre involved shall be payable by the applicant.

...”

4.4.4 Accordingly the Commission has considered the composite Scheduling and System

Operating Charges of Rs. 2000 per day for long term as well as short term open access

customers.

4.5 REACTIVE ENERGY CHARGES

4.5.1 TANTRANSCO has submitted that CERC has approved the reactive energy charges as

10 paise/KVARh w.e.f 1-5-2010 and requested the Commission to also fix the reactive

energy charges as 10 paise per KVARh.

4.5.2 The open access customer shall endeavour to minimize the reactive power drawal at an

interchange point when the voltage at that point is below 95% of rated and shall not

return reactive power supply when the voltage is above 105% rated.

4.5.3 As per regulation 62 (c) of the TNERC’s Tariff Regulations 2005, the reactive energy

charges would be a variable charge reflecting voltage related drawal of Reactive Power

and Reactive Power drawals by beneficiaries are to be priced as follows:-

a) The beneficiary pays for reactive power drawal when voltage at the metering

point is below 97%

b) The beneficiary gets paid for reactive power (return) supply when voltage is

below 97%

c) The beneficiary gets paid for reactive power drawal when voltage is above 103%

Page 43: TAMIL NADU ELECTRICITY REGULATORY COMMISSION

39 | P a g e

d) The beneficiary pays for reactive power (return) supply when voltage is above

103%

e) The charges for reactive energy shall be as decided by the Commission.

4.5.4 Reactive energy flows in the transmission network reduces the active power carrying

capability of the system apart from increasing transmission losses and reducing voltage at

the points of drawal. Reactive energy flows can be compensated by means of capacitor

installations in the local networks.

4.5.5 Further, in the context of open access regime, reactive energy management by

distribution company (DISCOM) would play a critical role in maintaining steady voltage

profile of grid. Poor reactive energy management would result in sub-optimal utilization

of transmission resources. Hence, pricing (‘Tariff’) for reactive energy drawal should be

such that it provides stronger economic signal for better reactive power management by

the DISCOM or Transmission Open access Users. Appropriate incentive and penalty

mechanism for reactive energy drawal/injection linked to voltage at inter-connection

point should also be devised in order to encourage better demand side management

practices.

4.5.6 As such, for the inter-State energy transactions, the associated reactive energy has not

been assigned a price, but there is a scheme under the Indian Electricity Grid Code, 2010

notified on April 28, 2010, which penalizes reactive energy drawal and rewards reactive

energy injection @ 10.00 paise/kVARh, w.e.f April 1, 2010, escalated at 0.5

paise/kVARh when the voltage at the inter-State connection point is below 97% of

nominal value. Similarly, the scheme penalizes reactive energy injection and rewards

reactive energy drawal @ 10.00 paise/kVARh, w.e.f April 1, 2010, escalated at 0.5

paise/kVARh, when the voltage at the inter-State connection point is above 103% of

nominal value. The reactive energy accounting is done by the RLDCs based on the

readings of the Special Energy Meters (SEMs) installed at the point of interconnections

over the inter-State transmission system.

4.5.7 Hence, the Commission rules that a rate of charge for such reactive energy exchange for

the applicable duration (injection or absorption) will be levied/compensated at the rate of

10.00 paise/kVARh for FY 2012-13 escalated at 0.5 paise/kVARh annually in subsequent

years, unless otherwise revised by Commission.
