AERC Tariff Order for APDCL FY 2026-27, dated 6 March 2026, in force from 1 April 2026. A link to the PDF is in the sources box on this page.
What does this estimate leave out?
Consumer-payable rates after the Assam Government targeted and tariff subsidy, as tabulated in the AERC order. Electricity duty not included. The FPPPA line uses AERC’s approved schedule; APDCL’s actual monthly figure can differ slightly. The calculator adds FPPPA at Rs 0.17 a unit (October 2026 bills, from the approved June 2026 to March 2027 schedule); you can switch it off. The example bills leave it out.
Where is the consumer number on my Assam electricity bill?
The name differs by discom. APDCL: Consumer Number (12 digits). The table on this page shows where each discom prints it, when its official pages say so.
Where to find your consumer number
Your bill shows a number that identifies your connection. In Assam the discom calls it:
| Discom | Name on the bill | Digits | Where to find it | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| APDCL | Consumer Number | 12 | At the top, in the middle column, on the first line. Your old consumer number is below it. | APDCL bill (sample bill, August 2025) |
From the discoms’ own websites, bill guides and sample bills, read on 17 October 2026. Where the source is a sample bill, we read only its layout: the label, the place and the number of digits. A dash means the official page we read does not say. Never share your consumer number with an unknown caller or app.
