Electricity bills by state
The same home use priced under every state’s tariff. At 200 units a month Punjab and Delhi homes pay nothing under the state’s free-units scheme; of the rest, Chhattisgarh is cheapest at ₹465 and Maharashtra costliest at ₹2,333.
Monthly bill for an urban home with a 2 kW sanctioned load, single phase. States billed every two or three months are priced for the same monthly use and shown per month. Includes fixed charges, surcharges set in the tariff and subsidies the tariff builds in (for example Tamil Nadu’s and Punjab’s free units). Electricity duty and the monthly fuel surcharge are left out, except where the state’s tariff builds them into the bill (marked). They can add 5–20% elsewhere.
