Thus, the expression "malpractices" has to
be construed in its proper perspective and
normally may not amount to theft of
electricity as contemplated under Section
135 of the 2003 Act. Such
acts/malpractices would fall within the
mischief of unauthorised use of electricity
as stipulated under Section 126 of the
2003 Act. Cases of pilferage of electricity
by adopting malpractices which patently
may not be a theft would be the cases that
would fall within the jurisdiction of the
Board in furtherance to the terms and
conditions of supply. Reference in this
regard can be made to the judgment of this
Court in Hyderabad Vanaspathi Ltd. v. A.P.
