ISLAMABAD: The National Electric Power Regulatory Authority (NEPRA) on Thursday increased the power tariff by Rs4.74 per unit on account of fuel charges adjustment (FCA) for October 2021.
The FCA for October 2021 will be charged with the bill of December 2021, which will be paid by all consumer categories of distribution companies, except for lifeline customers of all ex-WAPDA distribution companies (XWDISCOs).
The Rs4.74 increase will put a burden of Rs60 billion on consumers, including a 17% GST.
It is pertinent to mention that 10.98 billion units of electricity were sold during October.
