Power capacity and electricity billing are related but separate questions. A tenant selecting a warehouse in the Sriperumbudur–Oragadam corridor needs to know both what electrical service is available and how consumption and shared charges will be recorded.
Identify what the meter measures
Ask which meter serves the offered unit, which equipment is downstream of it and whether any common services share the same measurement. Record the meter identifier and the relevant boundary on the service or layout documents.
If there are submeters, ask how they relate to the main meter and what happens when readings do not reconcile. A number on a bill is easier to check when the physical boundary is clear.
| Item | Information to request |
|---|---|
| Unit consumption | Meter identifier, reading method and billing period |
| Common services | Which services are shared and how their cost is allocated |
| Other charges | An itemised explanation and the agreed charging basis |
| Reading evidence | Start and end readings, dates and accessible records |
| Disputes or anomalies | Contact route and process for investigating differences |
Use an illustrative calculation carefully
Suppose a meter rises from 125,400 kWh to 131,900 kWh across a billing period. The recorded consumption is 6,500 kWh. Applying a hypothetical energy rate of ₹8 per kWh gives ₹52,000 for that component alone.
That example is arithmetic, not a Tamil Nadu tariff quote. Actual bills may contain other items and depend on the applicable service and agreement. Ask the relevant billing or electrical team to explain the current basis instead of importing the example into a commercial forecast.
Record the opening position
At handover, record the meter identifier, reading, date and time with the property representative. Keep the record with the unit details and any agreement on the fit-out period. Identify whether tenant contractors or common works will use the same supply before normal operations begin.
Have electrical installation, capacity and any modifications assessed by the responsible professionals. Metering information alone does not establish that a supply is suitable for the proposed equipment.
Assign review responsibility
- Choose who records and checks each bill.
- Compare the billing period with operating days and major changes in activity.
- Investigate unexpected jumps using readings and equipment records.
- Keep agreed allocation methods and supporting documents together.
A recurring review can reveal misunderstandings early. If the workload changes, retain the context so a higher bill is not automatically attributed to a rate change when consumption also increased.
Use the same scope across property offers
Compare base rent, common services, power charges and any tenant installation cost separately. Ask each landlord for a written explanation using the same operating brief. This makes a low headline rent easier to assess against the full property arrangement.
Mansi’s supplied M-101 brochure does not specify an electricity tariff or a complete metering arrangement. Request those details for the offered unit before finalising an occupancy budget.
