ISLAMABAD: In an effort to provide a consistent power pricing throughout the nation, the National Electric Power Regulatory Authority (Nepra) has lowered the electricity rate by Rs1.15 per unit for all but lifeline customers. K-Electric customers are also affected by this change.
This comes after Nepra heard the Power Division’s motion for a uniform basic tariff, arguing that tariff rationalization actually makes it possible to fulfill the policy’s and the Constitution’s requirements rather than increasing federal revenue.
According to the regulator’s ruling, lifeline users who use 50 units would continue to pay Rs3.95 per unit, while users who use 100 units will continue to pay Rs7.74 per unit.
