I think this particular regulation will have very little impact in reality. Going by the current situation in various states, there is practically no chance that a commercial enterprise or a residential apartment or similar users of large gensets will do away with an emergency backup.
For example, in Calcutta, we hardly ever have power cuts. I can’t honestly remember when we had a power cut and yet every residential apartment block, mall, cinema theatre, office building etc have backup gensets.
Added: just saw this news after posting this… how on earth will the discoms guarantee quality of power in their current state?
