## A N S W E R

THE MINISTER OF STATE (INDEPENDENT CHARGE) FOR POWER AND NEW & RENEWABLE ENERGY

( SHRI  R. K. SINGH )

(a) : The Government has launched the scheme 'Ujjwal DISCOM Assurance Yojana  (UDAY)'  to  improve  financial  and  operational  efficiencies  of  state  owned Power  Distribution  Companies  (DISCOMs).    UDAY  aims  to  reduce  the  burden  of interest, cost of power and Aggregate Technical & Commercial (AT&C) losses.  The scheme  seeks  to  reduce  the  gap  between  Average  Cost  of  Supply  (ACS)  and Average Revenue Realized (ARR) to zero as per defined trajectories.  The scheme also  incentivizes  the  States  by  exempting  State  takeover  of  DISCOM  debts  from Fiscal Responsibility and Budgetary Management (FRBM) limits for two years i.e. 2015-16 and 2016-17, and lays down commitments on fiscal prudence by DISCOMs.

..........2.

So far, Twenty Seven (27) States and Five (05) Union Territories (UTs), namely,  Andhra  Pradesh,  Arunachal  Pradesh,  Assam,  Bihar,  Chhattisgarh,  Goa, Gujarat,  Haryana,  Himachal  Pradesh,  Jammu  &  Kashmir,  Jharkhand,  Karnataka, Kerala,  Madhya  Pradesh,  Maharashtra,  Manipur,  Meghalaya,  Mizoram,  Nagaland, Punjab, Rajasthan, Sikkim, Tamil Nadu, Telangana, Tripura, Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand,  Andaman  &  Nicobar  Islands,  Dadra  &  Nagar  Haveli,  Daman  &  Diu, Lakshadweep  and    Puducherry  have  signed  the  Memorandum  of  Understanding (MoU) with the Ministry of Power (MoP) under UDAY.

(b) : The  UDAY  web  portal  (www.uday.gov.in)  ranks  the  performance  of participating  States/DISCOM  in  a  dynamic  manner  based  on  a  combination  of operational and financial performance entered by the States/DISCOMs. The latest Rankings of the States/UTs as on 31-12-2017 are given at Annex-I.

- (c) & (d): All State/UTs, who have signed MoUs under UDAY, have undertaken to reduce the AT&C losses and ACS-ARR gap as per agreed trajectories. Details are given at Annex-II & III respectively.

The  State-wise  details  of  achievements  made  under  UDAY  on  the performance  of  operational  parameters  i.e.  AT&C  losses  and  ACS-ARR  gap  as updated by the States/UTs including Uttar Pradesh, Karnataka and Tamil Nadu are given at Annex-IV & V respectively.

- (e) : Provision  of  meters,  including  smart  meters,  is  the  responsibility  of the States and their respective Distribution utilities. The Government of India has been supporting States for provisioning of smart meters under several Smart Gird pilots, the status of installation of which is enclosed as Annex-VI. Under Integrated Power Development Scheme (IPDS), sanctions for 2,48,438 smart meters have been issued as per Annex-VII and recently on the basis of UDAY performance, approval for  additional outlay of Rs.750 crore for smart metering projects has been made. Further,  Energy  Efficiency  Services  Limited  (EESL)  is  undertaking  a  project  for installation of 40 lakh smart meters in Uttar Pradesh and 10 lakh smart meters in Haryana.
- (f) & (g) : A Monitoring Committee under the chairmanship of Secretary (Power) has  been  constituted  to  ensure  close  monitoring  of  the  performance  of  the participating  States/UTs  under  UDAY.    Further,  State-specific  focused  meetings have  also  been  initiated  to  handhold  States/UTs  and  the  DISCOMs  for  effective turnaround.   In  addition  to  the  above  monitoring  mechanism, the scheme is  also being  periodically  monitored  in  the  monthly  Review,  Planning  &  Monitoring Meetings (RPMs) as well as monthly review separately, by the Hon'ble Minister of State(I/C) for Power, NITI Aayog as well as at the PMO level to avoid any slippages.
