How we work it out

  • One home: urban, single phase, 2 kW. It uses 100, 200 or 300 units a month.
  • The bill is energy charge plus fixed and customer charges, from the tariff in each order. It does not include electricity duty, tax or fuel surcharge.
  • “In today’s rupees” uses the consumer price index of MoSPI (all India, general). We use the average of the months of each financial year. For 2026-27 we use April to September.

What we could not confirm

  • We did not find the JERC order of 6 April 2015 online. We took the 2015-16 rates from the 2016 order, which lists them as the existing tariff.
  • We could not confirm the start date of the 2015-16 tariff. Bills in April 2015 may have used the 2014-15 tariff.
  • The orders do not state the billing cycle of the Electricity Department. Our figures assume a monthly bill.
  • From April 2022 the fixed charge depends on connected load. Our figures assume a 2 kW connected load.
  • The order of 2025 gives a column for each year. We take 1 April 2026 as the start of the second-year rates.
  • Our figures leave out electricity duty and the fuel cost adjustment.
