Prepaid rules in Mizoram
- Prepaid rebate
- We could not confirm a prepaid rebate. The official order did not open for us, so the calculator uses the normal tariff.
How we work it out
- We price the month with today’s tariff for homes, from the calculator’s official rates.
- Then we apply the prepaid rules of the state order: a rebate, prepaid rates, and the time-of-day rates of smart meters.
- Units used earlier in the month decide the slab of the new units.
- Discoms take money each day, but the slabs count the whole month. Your daily balance can differ from our figures for the month.
