class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Getting a notice from UPPCL or the Electricity Department alleging unauthorised use, excess load, meter tampering or electricity theft can be a serious matter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For a consumer in Lucknow, the first step should not be panic or simply paying the demanded amount. The notice should be carefully examined to understand what exactly has been alleged, which section has been invoked and what remedy is available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Two provisions that frequently become important are Section 126 and Section 135 of the Electricity Act, 2003.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Advocate Manoj Sharma, a legal professional handling electricity and related legal matters in Lucknow, can assist consumers in understanding the notice, preparing objections and pursuing appropriate legal remedies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-section-126-vs-section-135-what-is-the-difference\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Section_126_vs_Section_135_What_Is_the_Difference\"><\/span>Section 126 vs Section 135: What Is the Difference?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This distinction is extremely important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Provision<\/th><th>What It Deals With<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Section 126<\/td><td>Unauthorised Use of Electricity<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Section 135<\/td><td>Theft of Electricity<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-section-126-unauthorised-use-of-electricity\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Section_126_%E2%80%94_Unauthorised_Use_of_Electricity\"><\/span>Section 126 \u2014 Unauthorised Use of Electricity<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Section 126 primarily deals with assessment for unauthorised use of electricity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A consumer may receive an assessment notice where the electricity authorities allege unauthorised use, such as certain situations involving excess load or use contrary to the authorised purpose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The procedure generally involves provisional assessment, the opportunity to object and a hearing before final assessment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-section-135-theft-of-electricity\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Section_135_%E2%80%94_Theft_of_Electricity\"><\/span>Section 135 \u2014 Theft of Electricity<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Section 135 deals with the offence of theft of electricity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The allegations may involve matters such as dishonest abstraction, consumption through unauthorised means, meter tampering or other conduct covered by the statutory provision.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A Section 135 matter can therefore have criminal-law consequences and should be handled more carefully.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-received-a-section-126-notice-in-lucknow-what-should-you-do\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Received_a_Section_126_Notice_in_Lucknow_What_Should_You_Do\"><\/span>Received a Section 126 Notice in Lucknow? What Should You Do?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you receive a Section 126 notice, start by checking the details mentioned in the assessment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Look at:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Consumer number<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Meter number<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sanctioned load<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Alleged connected load<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Inspection date<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Alleged irregularity<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Assessment period<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Amount assessed<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Date of hearing<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Time allowed for objections<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Do not ignore the deadline mentioned in the notice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-step-1-obtain-the-inspection-amp-assessment-documents\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_1_Obtain_the_Inspection_Assessment_Documents\"><\/span>Step 1: Obtain the Inspection &amp; Assessment Documents<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The inspection report can be extremely important in determining whether the department\u2019s allegations and calculations are correct.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Check whether the report accurately records:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Meter condition<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Connected load<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Seals<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Appliances<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Alleged irregularity<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Inspection findings<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If any factual detail is incorrect, it should be specifically addressed in the objection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-step-2-check-the-load-calculation\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_2_Check_the_Load_Calculation\"><\/span>Step 2: Check the Load Calculation<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the notice relates to excess load, compare:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Sanctioned Load<\/th><th>Actual Connected Load<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Load authorised for the connection<\/td><td>Load allegedly connected during inspection<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sometimes disputes arise because an appliance has been incorrectly included, the connected load has been calculated incorrectly or the sanctioned load records do not reflect the current position.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Any such discrepancy should be supported with documents wherever possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-step-3-check-the-assessment-amount\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_3_Check_the_Assessment_Amount\"><\/span>Step 3: Check the Assessment Amount<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Don\u2019t assume that the amount mentioned in a provisional assessment is automatically the final liability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Review:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Assessment period<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Load considered<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Applicable tariff<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Calculation method<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Supporting inspection findings<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If the calculation appears incorrect, the objection should clearly explain the specific error.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-step-4-file-a-written-objection\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_4_File_a_Written_Objection\"><\/span>Step 4: File a Written Objection<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A strong objection should respond to the actual allegations, rather than simply denying everything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It can address:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Incorrect inspection findings<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Wrong load calculation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Incorrect meter observations<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Incorrect assessment period<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Incorrect calculation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Relevant documents and evidence<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A copy of the objection and proof of submission should be preserved carefully.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-step-5-attend-the-hearing\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_5_Attend_the_Hearing\"><\/span>Step 5: Attend the Hearing<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Under the Section 126 framework, the consumer gets an opportunity to make representations against the provisional assessment and to be heard before the final assessment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Therefore, the hearing stage should be taken seriously.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Relevant documents and factual explanations should be presented clearly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-what-if-you-receive-a-section-135-electricity-theft-notice\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_If_You_Receive_a_Section_135_Electricity_Theft_Notice\"><\/span>What If You Receive a Section 135 Electricity Theft Notice?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A Section 135 allegation requires additional caution because it concerns electricity theft, which is a statutory offence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If your notice mentions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>\u201cElectricity Theft\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u201cSection 135\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u201cFIR\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u201cPolice Complaint\u201d<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>\u201cCriminal Case\u201d<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You should obtain legal advice promptly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The appropriate legal response depends upon the inspection report, evidence, meter-related material, allegations and procedural history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-can-electricity-supply-be-disconnected\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_Electricity_Supply_Be_Disconnected\"><\/span>Can Electricity Supply Be Disconnected?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In specified circumstances, the Electricity Act permits disconnection when theft is detected, subject to the statutory requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Therefore, if a consumer has received a theft-related notice or faces disconnection, immediate attention to the matter can be important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The exact legal position depends upon the circumstances and the action taken by the electricity authorities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-can-a-section-126-assessment-be-challenged\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_a_Section_126_Assessment_Be_Challenged\"><\/span>Can a Section 126 Assessment Be Challenged?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A consumer who is aggrieved by a final assessment order under Section 126 may have a statutory right of appeal under Section 127, subject to the prescribed requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This makes the process broadly:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Inspection \u2192 Provisional Assessment \u2192 Objection \u2192 Hearing \u2192 Final Assessment \u2192 Appeal, where applicable<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The relevant limitation period and statutory deposit requirements should be checked before filing an appeal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"h-what-documents-should-you-keep-ready\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Documents_Should_You_Keep_Ready\"><\/span>What Documents Should You Keep Ready?<span
