Yes Anoop, from April 1st all the properties can use water only if they have fixed meters.. otherwise the AMC will take action against them. I think it may take off the connection temporarily or so..

It has been made mandatory to fix water meter for all properties. The new rule will be coming to effect from 1st April and Rs 4425-crore municipal budget has also been sanctioned for this purpose. As per the new rule, any property in the city, whether residential or non-residential, has to install water meters without which it will not be permitted to use water. Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation has planned to install water meters to all properties in Ahmedabad in the next 5 years.
