    The above additional capitalization from DOCO up to cut off date i.e. 31.03.2013 was on account of Balance/Retention payment for substation works. As against the total allowed add cap of RS.693.82 Lakhs, actual expenditure incurred is Rs.462.87 Lakhs up to cut-off date 31.03.2013.

    It is to mention that as against DOCO cost of RS.1303.05 lakhs, as per the auditor certificate dtd 11.11.2010, Hon'ble Commission has considered DOCO cost of RS.1239.59 lakhs for determination of tariff for the 2009-14 block after reducing excess cost of Rs.63.46 lakhs of initial spares for combined assets as on notional DOCO: 01.11.2010 (by restricting the initial spares@ 2.5% of estimated completion cost of Substation equipments).

    Accordingly, the estimated completion cost allowed by the Hon'ble Commission was RS.1933.41 lakhs as against claimed amount of Rs.1996.87 lakhs. Now as per the final cost certificate, the completion cost of the assets is Rs1769.21 lakhs. Accordingly, cost of allowable Initial spares @2.5% of Substation cost works out to Rs.42.50 lakhs as against total spares cost of RS.111.8 lakhs indicated in the Auditor Certificate. The excess initial spares of RS.69.30 lakhs has been adjusted in the DOCO cost of RS.1306.35 lakhs and the adjusted DOCO of RS.1237.05 lakhs has been considered for the purpose of determination of tariff for 2009-14 block.

    In view of above, the capital cost for determination of transmission tariff for truing up 2009-14 and tariff block 2014-19, is considered after restricting the initial spares to normative values (Rs.42.50 lakh), in line with the CERC Order dtd 13.05.2011 in the petition no 309/2010, as per the provision 8, Chapter-2, of the CERC Regulations 2009.

    A copy of auditor's certificate in respect of the assets covered in this petition is enclosed herewith as Encl-2 (page 4i.. to ¥t). It is humbly prayed that tariff may be allowed on the adjusted actual Completion cost of Rs 1699.91 Lakhs.

    RETURN ON EQUITY

    20. Regulation 15 of the 2009 regulations provides that,

    "15. (1) Return on equity shall be computed in rupee terms, on the equity base determined in accordance with regulation 12.

    (2) Return on equity shall be computed on pre-tax basis at the base rate of 15.5% to be grossed up as per clause (3) of this regulation:

    Provided that in case of projects commissioned on or after 1st April, 2009, an additional return of 0.5% shall be allowed if such projects are completed within the timeline specified in Appendix-II:

    Provided further that the additional return of 0.5% shall not be admissible if the project is not completed within the timeline specified above for reasons whatsoever.

    (3) The rate of return on equity shall be computed by grossing up the base rate with the normal tax rate for the year 2008-09 applicable to the concerned generating company or the transmission licensee, as the case may be:

    Provided that return on equity with respect to the actual tax rate applicable to the generating company or the transmission licensee, as the case may be, in line with the provisions of the relevant Finance Acts of the respective year during the tariff period shall be trued up separately for each year of the tariff period along with the tariff petition filed for the next tariff period.

    (4) Rate of return on equity shall be rounded off to three decimal points and be computed as per the formula given below:

    Rate of pre-tax return on equity = Base rate / (1-t)

    Where t is the applicable tax rate in accordance with clause (3) of this regulation.

    ,.~.",.~ Page 9 of 23

  • 21. Return on equity has been calculated based on Average equity

    consequent to additional capital expenditure during the period 2010-11 to 12

    13. Return on Equity has been calculated as follows- Base rate/(1-t), where

    Base Rate is 15.5% and 't' is normal tax rate for the period 2008-09

    applicable to PowerGrid which is under MAT i.e. 10%+

    surcharge@10%+3%Education Cess.

    22. The petitioner has also prayed that it may be allowed to gross up the

    base rate of ROE as per the Finance Acts of the relevant years. This prayer

    has already been taken cognizance of in the Commission's order dated

    3.8.2010 in Petition 1\10. 17/2010 wherein a decision has been taken to

    address the issue raised by the petitioner. Relevant portion of the said order is

    extracted as under:

    "We are of the view that this issue of 'grossing up the base rate with the normal tax rate for the year 2008-09' is generic in nature and therefore, it will be appropriate to make suitable provisions in the 2009 regulations to cater to any future changes in the tax rate. Accordingly, we direct the staff of the Commission to prepare and submit draft amendment to the 2009 regulations for allowing grossing up of base rate of return with the applicable tax rate as per the Finance Act for the relevant year and direct settlement of tax liability between the generating company/transmission licensee and the beneficiariesllong term transmission customers on year to year basis. Any under/over recovery on account of direct settlement of tax liability shall be subject to the final adjustment at the time of true up exercise."

    23. Pending decision on revision of MAT rate, ROE has been computed as

    per Regulation 15 of the 2009 regulations, and pre-tax ROE of 17.481% has

    been considered.

    24. As the single asset has been commissioned on 1.10.2010, RoE in

    respect of the same has been calculated for six months in the year 2010

    Provided that if there is no actual loan for a particular year but normative loan is still outstanding, the last available weighted average rate of interest shall be considered: Provided further that if the generating station or the transmission system, as the case may be, does not have actual loan, then the weighted average rate of interest of the generating company or the transmission licensee as a whole shall be considered.

    (6) The interest on loan shall be calculated on the normative average loan of the year by applying the weighted average rate of interest.

    (7) The generating company or the transmission licensee, as the case may be, shall make every effort to re-finance the loan as long as it results in net savings on interest and in that event the costs associated with such re-financing shall be borne by the beneficiaries and the net savings shall be shared between the beneficiaries and the generating company or the transmission licensee, as the case may be, in the ratio of 2:1.

    (8) The changes to the terms and conditions of the loans shall be reflected from the date of such re-financing.

    (9) In case of dispute, any of the parties may make an application in accordance with the Central Electricity Regulatory Commission (Conduct of Business) Regulations, 1999, as amended from time to time, including statutory re-enactment thereof for settlement of the dispute:

    Provided that the beneficiary or the transmission customers shall not withhold any payment on account of the interest claimed by the generating company or the transmission licensee during the pendency of any dispute arising out of re-financing of loan."
