What legal steps should I take for delayed CGRF order implementation?
Hi Team My CGRF order was passed 7 months back but the MSEB officials are delaying the order processing and are not responding at all the two options in front of me are Consumer court or filing petition with Maharashtra Electricity Regulatory Commission need your assistance in the same.

You can file a complaint with the Maharashtra State Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission since MSEB's non-compliance with CGRF order for 7 months constitutes deficiency in service under Consumer Protection Act. Alternatively, you can approach MERC under Section 142 of Electricity Act for non-compliance of CGRF order, which might be faster as MERC has direct authority over MSEB. A consumer court case typically takes longer but may allow you to claim compensation for the delay and mental agony.

You can file a complaint with the Maharashtra Electricity Regulatory Commission (MERC) for non-compliance of CGRF order, which is typically faster and less expensive than pursuing a consumer court case. Alternatively, you can approach the Consumer Court under Section 71(6) of the Electricity Act, 2003, where you may be eligible for compensation due to the extended delay in implementing the CGRF order.

Sir, you can approach the Consumer Court under the Consumer Protection Act for non-compliance with the CGRF order by seeking implementation and compensation. Alternatively you may file a petition with the Maharashtra Electricity Regulatory Commission (MERC) for delay in processing.
