The weekly brief metro & rail professionals read.
The Petitioners have attempted to attain the details regarding the projected load, load factor, etc., from the Madhya Pradesh Metro Rail Corporation Limited, yet have yet to be successful.
In their Annual Performance Report, the Discoms informed the regulator that they are ready to cater to the connection demands of PMRCL, having analysed the tariffs applicable to Metro Rail in other states. Thus, the Petitioners have proposed a separate tariff and Tariff Category for this purpose, as the nature of services, load factor and other parameters are distinct from other categories, including Railways.
