Government have been

industries in the matter of power connection. Taking into
consideration the announcements made by the Minister (Finance) in
the current year’s budget speech and after discussions with all
concerned, Government are now pleased to issue the following
orders in this context which will have effect from 1.4.1990:
1. Power
connection will be given on completion of any project irrespective
of whether a general power cut is in force or not.
2. New units
commencing industrial production will be exempted from power cut
for a period of five years from the date of commercial production.
3. Exemption from
payment of electricity duty for a period of 5 years from the date
of commencement of commercial production will be given to the new
units.
4. In future the
electricity duty will not be collected from the industries if they
are eligible for exemption.
5. Service
connection charges will not be levied if no line extension is
required or if the additional line to be provided is less than 500
metres in length.
