Government schemes in West Bengal
Schemes that change what a home pays, read from the government order, the regulator’s order or the discom’s own notice. Checked 15 October 2026.
Government of West Bengal domestic subsidy In the calculator, on by default
For Domestic (Rural) and (Urban) homes using up to 300 units a month, the State Government pays part of every slab (quarterly slabs) and Rs 10 of the Rs 30/kVA monthly fixed charge. The bill shows the tariff amount, the State subsidy and the net amount. WBSEDCL area only; CESC and IPCL homes are not covered.
- We treat a home above 900 units in the quarter as getting no subsidy, which is how the gist words it ("having monthly consumption upto 300 unit"). No official text says what happens above that.
Source: WBSEDCL Gist of Tariff Order 2025-26 (tariff / subsidy / net table, p. 2); no 2026-27 order has been issued, so the 2025-26 tariff and subsidy continue WBERC order 24-01-2022, Case B-11/23, with GoWB memo 152-POW of 23-12-2021 (continues till further notification)
Hasir Alo In the calculator, switch it on in the form
Lifeline domestic consumers with connected load up to 0.3 kW using up to 75 units a quarter (25 a month) pay nothing, including meter rent: "no electricity charges will be levied". It covers lifeline consumers of WBSEDCL, CESC and IPCL, and continues "till further order".
- The order does not say what happens above 75 units a quarter, and there is no lifeline rate above 75 units. We show no Hasir Alo saving and a warning.

West Bengal bill questions
How much is the electricity bill for 100 units in West Bengal?
About ₹1,727.76 for 300 units (about ₹576 a month) in a 3-month bill, using the current WBERC tariff. Sanctioned load 2 kW, urban, single phase. With Government of West Bengal domestic subsidy applied (on by default; see Government schemes below). Electricity duty and the monthly fuel surcharge are not included.
What will 200 or 300 units cost in West Bengal?
Roughly ₹3,746.76 for 600 units (about ₹1,249 a month), and ₹5,813.76 for 900 units (about ₹1,938 a month). Use the calculator above for your exact units and load.
Are West Bengal 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 West Bengal electricity bills issued?
Homes are billed every three months. Enter the units for one billing period.
Which tariff order are these West Bengal rates from?
WBERC Tariff Order for WBSEDCL, FY 2025-26 (dt 20-03-2025), in force till further order, dated 20 March 2025, in force from 1 April 2025. A link to the PDF is in the sources box on this page.
What does this estimate leave out?
Tariff of the WBERC order of 20-03-2025, continuing; the State subsidy is shown as its own line. Electricity duty and fuel adjustment not included.
Where is the consumer number on my West Bengal electricity bill?
The name differs by discom. WBSEDCL: Consumer ID; CESC Kolkata: Customer ID (11 digits). 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 West Bengal the discoms call it:
| Discom | Name on the bill | Digits | Where to find it | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| WBSEDCL | Consumer ID | — | — | WBSEDCL online bill payment page (field label) |
| CESC Kolkata | Customer ID | 11 | At the top left, below the bill number. | CESC bill (sample bill, May 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.
