Nepra hits masses with another electricity tariff bomb

ISLAMABAD: The National Electric Power Regulatory Authority (NEPRA) has approved an increase of Rs0.48 per unit in the power tariff.

The national power regulatory authority’s notification stated that the price hike was made in the context of fuel price adjustment made in August.

“The increase will be collected in November bills, however, the increase in electricity prices will not apply to K- Electric customers,” the notification stated.

This recent increase in electricity prices would impose an additional burden of more than Rs5 billion on consumers. (With input from INP)
