HON’BLE DR. JUSTICE G. YETHIRAJULU W.P.No.8799 of 2004 DATE: 08-02-2008 Between: M/s. Advanta India Limited ……………… Petitioner and 1. A.P. Transco Replay, represented by its CMD, Vidyuth Soudha, Hyderabad and others. ………….. Respondents HON’BLE DR. JUSTICE G. YETHIRAJULU W.P.No. 8799 of 2004 ORDER: This writ petition is filed by the petitioner questioning the back billing on account of non-functioning of one of the phases of the service. A provisional assessment was issued and after receiving the explanation of the petitioner, a final assessment order was passed by the third respondent confirming the provisional assessment. Against the final assessment order passed by the third respondent, an Appeal has to be preferred to the Chief General Manager. But the petitioner, instead of preferring an Appeal, approached this Court seeking the remedy by invoking the writ jurisdiction. It is appropriate for the petitioner to file an Appeal before the Chief General Manager instead of approaching this Court. In the result, the writ petition is dismissed as not maintainable by giving liberty to the petitioner to prefer an Appeal to the Chief General Manager against the final assessment order passed by the third respondent and the Chief General Manager shall pass appropriate orders on such Appeal after giving opportunity to the petitioner. No order as to costs. ___________________ DR. G. YETHIRAJULU, J Date:08-02-2008 YCR
