The Kerala State Electricity Board (KSEB) said on Thursday that it expects to submit a tariff petition to the Kerala State Electricity Regulatory Commission (KSERC) by December 25.

The power utility, in a statement issued here today , said it would seek only a just revision in line with the tariff determination regulations notified by the commission.

The power utility pointed out that the new tariffs could not be predicted now as these are decided by the commission after holding public hearings.
