NEPRA has changed the Base Tariff Rate from FY 07-2022 to onwards. The new rate are so complicated and very high in Price. The common man can not offered & survive with these rates. There are two main category of consumer declared by NEPRA. One to them is protected (life line consumer) and other is non-protected consumers. Here is list of life line consumer rates given below.

Here is the rate list of non-protected consumer. The tariff rate has been changed. So the price of electricity according to tariff rate will be so much high even more than double than the last three month’s tariff rates. You can compare your pesco electricity bill with previous last six month bill to check how much the cost of electricity has been increased and the difference of Tariff. It is now very alarming situation for the consumer of PESCO as well as the rest of all DISCO’s consumers to pay the bill. The GOVT should reconsider about their decision for a common man. In this situation the people can pay their bill only and on the other hand they have nothing for other expenses. Hick in Tariff rate will create extra burden on consumer to pay bill.

Here is the new tariff rate list given below to calculate your pesco bill with the help of this chart.

According to the Pesco Official that the consumers who use the electricity units ≤ 200 in last 6 month continuously are considered as a protected consumer and will charge lowest rate per unit. If the protected consumer use more than 200 units in a month will not remain in the category of protected consumer unless he use again less than 200 unit continuously for 6 months.

The protected consumer of Pesco will pay the FPA for the month of June @ 3.89 per unit.

So to protect yourself use under 200 units per month to get more benefits and save your money.

Once you fallout from protected category than it will take a long time near about six month to come back in protected consumer list.

The consumer who use more than 200 units in a month are fall in the category of non-protected consumers. The non-protected consumer will charge the high rate per unit than the protected consumer.

But one thing for the non-protected consumer that if they have consumed 300 units or less than 300 then they will pay no FPA for the month of June 2022. The reasons is that they already paid high rate of units in the previous month.

If you want to be a protected consumer then you will have to use 200 units or less than 200 units for 6 months continuously.

One interesting fact about a unique consumer of Pesco Company. This consumer that use only 50 units or less than 50 units per month is called a life line consumer of the pesco company. A life line consumer pay only the minimum and fix charges for 50 units.

 NEPRA May Allow Charging Pesco’s Consumers Rs4.34/Unit FPA on July ,2022 Units

According to authentic sources the news has come out that NEPRA may charge 4.34 per units in lieu of FPA. This increase may effect in the billing cycle of September ,2022. Already there is issue raised between the authority and the consumers of the X-Discos. Although the base tariff has been revised already. The cost of electricity has been doubled in the last two month. The increasing in the cost of electricity making much harder for a common man to pay the Pesco bill.

The Govt should need to re-think about its decision before to set into action. Again the raise in Fuel Price Adjustment (FPA) will disturb the whole WAPADA community. There is possibility 100% if i am not wrong there will be conflict between the consumers and Company.

So the Authority must think about the anger of people and the consumer of pesco. If the NEPRA apply the fuel price adjustment in the moth of September 202 @ 3.34 Per Unit then this will be almost 5.25 Per units with including all taxes.

As keeping in mind that the whole country in miserable condition due to flood. The GOVT should not take these kind of steps.
