In force

The Government of Punjab memo of 4 March 2026 and the PSERC tariff order for 2026-27 continue the scheme.

Last checked against the official texts: 15 October 2026.

Tick what is true for your home

The check runs on your phone. We do not ask for your name, consumer number or Aadhaar, and nothing leaves your device.

Who qualifies

  • Your connection is for a home (residential use).
  • The connection is not a place of worship, a Government hospital, school or hostel, a Sainik rest house or a Government sports institution.

What you get

  • Up to 300 units a month, you pay no energy charge, fixed charge, meter rent or Government levies.
  • A two-month bill uses 600 units and doubled slabs.

If you use more than the limit

If a general home uses more than 300 units in a month, it pays the whole bill for all its units. Some households have a different rule above the limit. See the official order.

How to apply

  1. Homes do not need to register. PSPCL applies the free units in the bill.
  2. Read PSPCL’s circular with the Government memo. Open the official page
Watch for scams. No official scheme asks you to pay a fee, give an OTP or open a link in a text message. Use only the official links on this page. If someone asks for money to "activate" free units, do not pay.

What we could not confirm

  • The memo does not say if the fuel adjustment (FPPAS) is free. The tariff order applies FPPAS to all metered consumers.
