NEPRA Approves Electricity Tariff Adjustment: Consumers to Face Impact in March Bills
In a significant move, the National Electric Power Regulatory Authority (NEPRA) has given the green light to an electricity tariff adjustment, setting the new rate at 7.05 Pakistani Rupees per unit for the upcoming month.
Reason Behind the Increase:
NEPRA’s decision is rooted in the adjustment of fuel prices for January, as outlined in their recent notification. This change is anticipated to influence consumers when they receive their electricity bills in March.
The adjustment translates to an additional financial burden of 66 billion rupees, inclusive of GST, which consumers will need to bear.
It’s essential to note that this increase will not be universal, as NEPRA has specified that the adjustment won’t apply uniformly to all electricity consumers.
