Model B
Revenue Franchisee Input Based
The operations and remuneration under this model are similar to that of the collection franchisee. The basic difference is in the target setting mechanism by the utility. The input energy into the area covered by the franchisee is measured by the utility while the target for revenue collection is set based on the collections made as a percentage of the input energy supplied to the consumers beyond the point of metering by the utility. Measurement of the energy input can be at:
11 KV feeder level Distribution Transformer level

Input-based Franchisee
Model C
The Franchisee needs to purchase electricity at a predetermined tariff from the Utility termed as Bulk Supply Rate (BST) and distribute in the designated area.
The energy is measured at pre-decided input point for example 33KV side of 33/11 KV transformer.
Below the input point all the commercial activities are undertaken by the franchisee including supply related consumer complaints
Franchisee is extensively involved in loss reduction and collection efficiency improvement since the franchisee gains are proportionally linked to the AT&C loss improvement.
The Franchisee earnings is the gap between the collection (after meeting all his operating expenses) and the amount to be paid to the Utility for the Energy Input to the Franchisee to the designated area.
