Thrissur Municipal Corporation and TCED are separate entities and the TCED is run on a commercial basis.[1] The municipal corporation purchases power in bulk from the Kerala State Electricity Board (KSEB). The budget for this operation, however, is separately prepared and is not included in the annual municipal corporation budget. The separate books of accounts of the operation are also kept under the cash based system.
