Maharashtra bill questions
How much is the electricity bill for 100 units in Maharashtra?
About ₹836.36 for 100 units in a month, using the current MERC tariff. Sanctioned load 2 kW, urban, single phase. Electricity duty and the monthly fuel surcharge are not included.
What will 200 or 300 units cost in Maharashtra?
Roughly ₹2,332.76 for 200 units, and ₹3,829.16 for 300 units. Use the calculator above for your exact units and load.
Are Maharashtra domestic slabs telescopic?
Yes. Each band of units is charged at its own rate, so only the units above a slab boundary pay the higher rate.
How often are Maharashtra electricity bills issued?
Homes are billed monthly. Enter the units for one billing period.
Which tariff order are these Maharashtra rates from?
MSEDCL MYT tariff for the 5th Control Period as revised by MERC's post-remand order in Case No. 75 of 2025, dated 25 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?
FAC changes monthly; default is MSEDCL's Sep 2026 slab FAC (0.25/0.50/0.65/0.70). Enter this month’s FAC under “Monthly charges from your bill” to use your own. Tax on sale of electricity is nil for MSEDCL homes in every area (MSEDCL Commercial Circular 354, 15 April 2026).
Is MSEB the same as MSEDCL?
MSEB is the old Maharashtra State Electricity Board. MSEDCL, also called Mahavitaran, now supplies and bills most homes in Maharashtra. Many people still call it the MSEB bill or the light bill.
Where is the consumer number on my Maharashtra electricity bill?
The name differs by discom. MSEDCL: Consumer No. (12 digits); Adani Electricity: CA No. (9 digits); BEST: Consumer No. 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 Maharashtra the discoms call it:
| Discom | Name on the bill | Digits | Where to find it | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| MSEDCL | Consumer No. | 12 | At the top, on the line below your name. It is also on the payment slip. | MSEDCL LT bill format (sample), October 2026 (PDF) |
| Adani Electricity | CA No. | 9 | In the blue box below the bill details, in large print next to the QR code. | Adani Electricity bill (sample bill, April 2026) |
| BEST | Consumer No. | 9, then a check digit | In the box at the top right, on the first line. The C.A. No. is below it. | BEST bill (sample bill, April 2026) |
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.
