There are four types of consumer bills, depending upon the usage.
Usually, normal consumers get normal bills. Normal Bill is issued as per actual meter reading recorded by the meter installed and calculated as per rates notified by Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority (OGRA) for all categories of consumers.
Previously the readings were recorded manually but now automatic meter readers have been installed.
This is the second type of billing method which is used when actual meter reading could not be recorded due to certain factors.
These factors can be:
A minimum bill is issued when consumption is nil/zero or below the prescribed consumption limit as per rates notified by the Oil and Gas Regulatory Authority (OGRA) for all categories of consumers.
During these cases, a person still has to pay the line rent.
Sticky / Stopped Meter Bill is issued if the meter is sticky / stops (out of order) and is unable to record the gas passing through it.
The bill is based on seasonal average consumption in case of domestic category whereas in case of Industrial and Commercial category, it is based on the previous two month’s or following two month’s average consumption whichever is higher as per Gas Sales Agreement.
Usually, pressure factor is applied for the calculation of the corrected volume of gas consumed for commercial consumers, while pressure, temperature and super compressibility factors are applied to work out the corrected volume of gas consumed by Industrial / Bulk supply consumers.
