In a bid to address consumer concerns about rising electricity costs, K-Electric has introduced a hassle-free solution for fully domestic consumers to eliminate advance income tax from their electricity bills. The company’s spokesperson has revealed that consumers sharing the same address and identity card can easily remove the imposed advance tax by following a straightforward process on the K-Electric website.
The rising costs of electricity have prompted concerns among consumers, and K-Electric acknowledges their right to express worries while emphasizing the importance of maintaining a respectful approach towards the workforce. It’s crucial to understand that the authority to determine electricity rates lies with NEPRA and the Ministry of Energy. Taxes applied to the bills are the responsibility of electricity distribution companies, not the consumers.
