Msedcl disconnection notice for unpaid electric bills whereas kdmc does'nt on unpaid water bill

Financial health of several housing societies would have been disciplined if there is a uniform policy over disconnection of not only electricity but also water and property tax. The crux of the matter is that the MSEDCL issues disconnection notice for non-payment of electricity Bill whereas the KDMC has no such disconnection notice policy over unpaid water bills and property tax bills.

It is another matter of charging penal interest for delayed payments which is out of context here. Of course, both the MSEDCL and KDMC collect penal interest . 

My point is why Electricity is considered more valuable for disconnection notice while the same value is not given to water and property tax ?

This appears to be a hypothetical question.

It is the rules and policy matter of the different departments, if at all you want to know the reason for the importance given to electricity supply, you may go through the regulations of the said department.

You have delivered your lecture on the financial health of your (or any other ) housing society, how and where the experts are concerned on this platform.

You may appreciate the fact water and electricity bill is generated / paid to suppliers of the service, whereas property tax is levied by municipal authority.

What do you mean from the terms MSEDCL and KDMC used in your post ?

Charging of penal interest is altogather a different subject for debate with concerned authorities except this platform.

As observed no legal issue is involved in your post / lecture for consideration and obligation of experts on this platform. However, if you have any legal dispute / concern / problem it would be appropriate to contact, consult and engage a local prudent lawyer for proper appreciation of facts / documents, professional advise and necessary proceeding.

The posting is a proposition or a suggestion devoid of any query.
