Dear Sir,<br><br>Noida Power Corporation has taken up the responsibility from Greater Noida Authority to provide uninterrupted electric supply to its residence. Instead of that they have been maintaining 6-10 hours outage every day during summer and 4-6 hours in winters. Moreover, they are charging the meter rent (that they have now rechristened as Fixed charged) every month and is ever increasing. The meter that must working for the whole months to justify the charged amount, is actually works for its 50-60% duration in summer and 80% in winter. <br>I would like to request you that since we the consumer who are forced to install alternative device at our house be it inverter or Generators, to overcome their NPCL's inefficiency , we would like you to order the NPCL authority to charge the Meter Rent (Fixed Charge) proportionally to the total number of hours of electricity actually supplied w.r.t. total number of hours in that month.<br><br>Thanking You<br><br>Shiladitya Banerjea<br>G-530, ALpha- II, Greater Noida- UP-201306
