- The June bills will reflect a net relief of Re0.80 after adjusting the fuel duty.
- A relief of Rs67 billion will be provided as part of the first quarterly adjustment.
- The discount applies nationwide, including K-Electric consumers.
The National Electric Power Regulatory Authority (Nepra) has approved a reduction of Rs 1.98 per unit in electricity tariffs; however, the June bills will reflect a net relief of Re0.80 per unit after applying a fuel charge adjustment (FCA) of Rs1.19.
Under the new decision, electricity tariffs have been reduced by Rs 1.98 per unit in the first quarterly adjustment of 2026, which will result in an estimated relief to consumers exceeding Rs 67 billion.
The discount will remain in effect for three consecutive months, specifically covering the June, July and August billing cycles.
The adjustment was applied uniformly across the country, including K-Electric consumers. However, the notification clarified that essential consumers were not included in the revised tariff structure.
In a separate decision today, electricity tariff was increased by Rs 1.19 per unit across the country, including Karachi, according to a notification issued by Nepra. The adjustment was made as part of the April 2026 Fuel Price Adjustment (FCA).
The monthly adjustment will also apply to K-Electric consumers, the regulator said in its notification. The increase will be reflected in electricity bills issued for the current month of June.
According to the notification, the Central Power Purchasing Agency (CPPA) had initially requested an increase of Rs1.73 per unit as part of the April adjustment. However, the regulator approved a hike of Rs1.19 per unit after reviewing the submitted data and calculations.
