** Base O&M= (0.015 x Capital cost) escalated at the rate of 4 percent per annum to bring it to 2003-04 level    
For example if the capital cost of the plant commissioned in 2000-01 is Rs 1000 cores then the base for 2003-04 is computed as follows:-            
Base O&M for 2003-04= Rs. (0.015*1000)*(1.04)3       crore
