No. 1/2015-RA/CERC
The Electricity Regulatory Commissions Act, 1998 paved way for creation of the Regulatory Commissions at the Centre and in the States. Since the enactment of Electricity Act 2003 the power sector has undergone major structural changes.
The Electricity Act, 2003 has significantly enlarged the spectrum of responsibility of CERC. Under the ERC Act, 1998 only the tariff fixation powers were vested in CERC. The new law of 2003 has entrusted on the CERC several other responsibilities in addition to the tariff fixation powers, for instance, the powers to grant license for inter-State transmission, inter-State trading and consequently to amend, suspend and revoke the license, the powers to regulate the licensees by setting performance standards and ensuring their compliance, etc.
