UPERC tariff order for FY 2025-26: no tariff hike, minor schedule changes
UPERC (UPPCL discoms) · Petitions 2162-2165/2024 and 2176/2024, Tariff Order dated 22 November 2025
The Commission held that the discoms were in surplus and gave no tariff hike for FY 2025-26, with minor changes in the schedule linked to a revised GoUP subsidy letter (5 Aug 2025). The domestic rate payable stayed at urban 5.50, 5.50, 6.00, 6.50 a unit. The order was issued in November 2025, well into the year, and applies seven days after newspaper publication.

Per month, payable after subsidy. Rural metered 3.35, 3.85, 5.00, 5.50 and lifeline 3.00 unchanged. The FY 2024-25 schedule table prints Rs 90.00 as the urban payable fixed charge against Rs 110.00 before subsidy; the FY 2025-26 table prints Rs 110.00, so the urban fixed charge may have moved from 90 to 110, which is not explained in the text read.
