ISLAMABAD: The National Electric Power Regulatory Authority (Nepra) announced an increase in the power tariff by Rs2.83 per unit due to monthly fuel cost adjustment.
This decision will impose an additional burden of Rs26 billion on electricity consumers, although it will not be applicable to K-Electric and lifeline consumers.
The revised electricity prices will reflect in the bills for May 2024.
Last month, the government also raised the electricity tariff by Rs4.92 per unit through fuel adjustment.
Nepra increased the price for February, which was reflected in the bills of April 2024.
