A consumer with a maximum demand of 500 kVA at 350 per kVA and 200 000 kWh at 8 per kWh pays a total of

  • A.19.50 lakh
  • B.17.75 lakh
  • C.16.00 lakh
  • D.1.75 lakh

Answer: B

Correct answer: 17.75 lakh

Compute the two parts and add: \[ 500 \times 350 = 1\,75\,000, \qquad 200\,000 \times 8 = 16\,00\,000, \] \[ \text{total} = 17\,75\,000 = 17.75\ \text{lakh}. \] The demand charge is about a tenth of the bill here; for a consumer with the same demand but a lower load factor it would be a far larger share, which is what the demand charge exists to capture.
