It is not an irregularities. You may like to check

So, RDF stands for "Reading Defect". This is an auto-generated meter read remark if the billing system finds that previous read is higher than the current read. In such situation, system generates bill with the average consumption of last 3 months, which is 95 units in your case.

Once, bill generated into "RDF". it has to go through the "Bill Revision" process to continue the correct bill.
There could be the following possibilities:

  • Meter is OK and reads wrongly punched, Need to revise the bill.
  • Meter is actually defective and reading back. Such meter needs to replace and then proceed for revision.

So, You may call 1912, or use  UPPCL's Complaints Portal or directly visit the local office to correct this bill.
