The transmission system capacity is therefore determined as per the MPERC (Terms and conditions for Intra-State Open Access in MP) Regulations, 2005. The Average Capacity of Intra-State transmission system is defined as; Average capacity means the average capacity in MW served by the Intra- State transmission system of the transmission licensee in the previous financial year, and shall be the sum of the generating capacities, connected to the transmission system and contracted capacities of other Long Term transactions handled by the system of Transmission Licensee. The power corresponding to Intra-State generating capacity is available to transmission system after deducting the auxiliary consumption. Similarly, power from the Central Sector generating stations is available at M.P. periphery after deduction of auxiliary consumption and losses in Inter-State transmission system. While determining transmission system capacity for the earlier control period, the above mentioned fact has been taken into consideration. The transmission system capacity for year 2012-13 has also been subjected to True-up on above mentioned basis. The Regulations provide that the Average Capacity during a year shall be taken as that served in previous year. Therefore, the transmission capacity during 2012-13 is taken as that existing as on 01.04.2012. The capacity for year 2012-13 is worked out taking into consideration the actual generating and contracted capacities as on 01.04.2012 based on State Government s notification dated 29.03.2012. 8

2.3 STATE GOVERNMENT ORDER FOR CAPACITY ALLOCATION The Government of Madhya Pradesh vide notification 2660/F-3-24/2009/ XIII dated 29.3.2012 has allocated the total available generating capacity. A copy of the notification is enclosed as Annexure-II. Based on the State Government order dated 29.03.2012, the total Generating Capacity is summarized hereunder; In addition to the above capacity of 2145 MW from expected Generating Stations have been also allocated to Tradeco. 2.4 Hon ble Commission in the Transmission Tariff order dtd. 17.4.2012, considered the total capacity of 2145 MW allocated to the Tradeco (MPPMCL) as existing resulting in total Transmission capacity of 10200.6 MW. However, out of 2145 MW, only 490.52 MW could come during 2012-13. Therefore, the Transmission capacity in True up now computed is much less than 10200.6 MW. 2.5 The State Government vide notification 2260-F-3-24-2009-XIII dtd. 19 th March 2013 has allotted generating capacities to Discoms. This notification has however not been taken into consideration as the Transmission capacity for an year as per definition is to be considered at the beginning of year. 2.6 TRANSMISSION CAPACITY FOR FY 2012-13 Transmission capacity for FY 2012-13 is to be worked out on the basis of generating capacity allocation as on 1.4.2012. The generating capacity allocation as on 1.4.2012 is computed as under; S. Particulars MW 1 Generating capacity MP Share as given in table in Para 2.3 8432.01 2 Additional allocation for Bundelkhand area 200.00 9

From this, Auxiliary consumption has been reduced from the Generators within the State. For Generating Stations, outside the State, both the Auxiliary consumption as well Inter-State Transmission losses have been reduced. Station-wise details are given in Annexure-III. Based on above, Transmission capacity is worked out as 8535.0 MW for year 2012-13. 2.7 TRANSMISSION CAPACITY ALLOCATION AMONG DISCOMS & SEZ - The capacity allocation to Discoms is proposed on the following basis. (i). (ii). Total transmission capacity (inclusive of 200 MW specific allocation for Bundelkhand Region in MPPKVVCL) available for a particular year is apportioned in the percentage ratio as indicated in State Government order dated 29.03.2012. SEZ allocation is treated as additional. The percentage takes care of Bundelkhand s allocation to East Discom. The capacity during the year is taken as that on 1 st April i.e. beginning of year. (iii). Since SEZ has availed additional power under Open Access from NTPC, and has been allocated capacity at MP periphery as 12 MW, same has been considered. (iv). The fractional allocation worked out has been rounded off. Based on above, the allocated transmission capacity proposed is tabulated hereunder; S. 1 2 Distribution Licensee MP Poorva Kshetra Vidyut Vitaran Company Ltd. Jabalpur.

In line with the mention in National Tariff Policy to avoid the need of AAD for repayment of loans, Hon ble CERC rationalized the depreciation rates and formula. Hon ble MPERC also rationalized the depreciation formula in the tariff regulations notified on 08.05.2009. Whereas the other provisions in this regard remain the same, the important changes are in respect of rates and formula for charging depreciation mentioned in para 25(1) (e) & (f) of the regulations as reproduced hereunder; 25.1 (e) Depreciation shall be calculated annually based on straight line method and at the rates specified in Appendix-II to these Regulations for the assets of the Transmission System. Provided that, the remaining depreciation value as on 31 st March of the Year closing after a period of 12 Years from Date of Commercial Operation shall be spread over the balance useful life of the assets. 24

Provided further that the Consumer contribution or capital subsidy/ grant etc. for asset creation shall be treated as per the Accounting Rules notified and in force from time to time. 25.1(f) In case of the existing Projects, the balance depreciable value as on 1.4.2009 shall be worked out by deducting the cumulative depreciation including Advance Against Depreciation as admitted by the Commission upto 31.3.2009 from the gross depreciation value of the assets. The rate of depreciation shall be continued to be charged at the rate specified in Appendix-II till cumulative depreciation reaches 70%. Thereafter, the remaining depreciable value shall be spread over the remaining life of the asset such that the maximum depreciation does not exceed 90%. Appendix-II of the regulations provides for depreciation rates for different category of Assets. 8.3 ASSET DATA BASE FOR WORKING OUT DEPRECIATION The Petitioner has finalized an Asset Register with the Gross Fixed Assets & Accumulated Depreciation figures matching with Opening Balance Sheet as indicated in Para 8.1 of this Petition. This base is utilized for extending the data base till 2012-13; the salient features of the database are; (i) (ii) (iii) (iv) (v) The Gross Fixed Assets & Accumulated Depreciation figures in this database is matched as per Final Opening Balance Sheet notified on 12 th June 2008 in the position of 31.05.05. The works Capitalized during subsequent years have been entered in the data base till 31.03.2013. The Depreciation rates after 31.05.05 have been taken as per Hon ble MPERC s Regulations applicable from time to time. Depreciation working formula is as per Straight Line Method of Depreciation The Depreciation ceases to further add-up as soon as the Depreciation reaches 90% of Opening Gross Block. Balance 10% is scrap value. 8.4 UPDATION IN THE DEPRECIATION MODEL SOFTWARE The Asset data base has been modified in light of above mentioned provisions in the following respect; (i) (ii) In case of assets created on or after 01.04.2009, the depreciation rates as per Appendix-II of the Regulation will continue up to 31 st March of the year closing after a period of 12 years. Thereafter rate automatically changes equal to remaining depreciation out of 90% limit divided by the balance life of assets. In case of assets commissioned prior to 01.04.2009, the depreciation w.e.f. 01.04.2009 will be booked at the rates mentioned in Appendix-II of regulations till the depreciation reaches 70% of the book value. Thereafter the 25

rate of depreciation automatically changes as equal to 20% residual value (90% - 70%) divided by remaining life of assets. (iii) All assets are depreciated to maximum 90% of book value. Thereafter no depreciation is charged. (iv) Hon ble Commission has prescribed the procedure to account for the Depreciation on Assets formed under Consumers Contribution. Hon ble Commission also mentioned to review this since 31.05.2005, the date of Opening Balance Sheet transfer. No works funded through Consumers Contribution Assets have been capitalized upto 31.03.2010. Such Assets have been capitalized in 2011-12 and 2012-13. The Depreciation on these Assets have been computed as per other Assets. Thereafter, these Assets are tabulated separately in Depreciation Model and Depreciation charged on these has been subtracted from total Depreciation claim. Since the adjustment has been given in Depreciation itself, the amortization is not shown again as other income. No Depreciation has been charged by the MPPTCL against contributory works, till FY 2009-10. 8.5 CHANGE IN YEARLY DEPRECIATION BECAUSE OF ASSET REGISTER RECONCILIATION Regarding reconciliation of Asset Register, it was earlier submitted that this work got delayed due to the fact that the MPSEB has not furnished the estimate-wise details of Assets while transferring the Asset through Final Opening Balance Sheet dtd. 12 th June 2008 in the position of 31.5.2005. It has also been submitted that the Assets from 01.06.2005 are final and reconciled with the accounts. As mentioned earlier, a Committee had been formed to finalize this job. The Assets have been identified and reconciled with the Opening Gross Block of the Opening Balance Sheet. On finalization of the Asset details as on 01.06.2005, a small difference was expected. The Asset Register has since been finalized and because of change in base constituents some difference vis-à-vis the amount earlier claimed under Depreciation has been observed. These yearly differences of accumulated depreciation are tabulated below; S.
