Where to Find Your 10-Digit UPPCL Account ID
Required to view, download, or pay your electricity bill on the official UPPCL portal.
* Note: Format varies slightly across regional DISCOMs (PVVNL, MVVNL, DVVNL, PuVVNL, KESCO). The 10-digit Account ID is consistently located at the top section of the receipt.
Look at the top-right corner of your bill receipt next to 'Account No' or 'खाता संख्या'. It is a strictly 10-digit numeric ID (e.g., 1029384756).
When meter readers generate your bill, UPPCL sends an SMS from sender header VD-UPPCL mentioning your 10-digit Account Number and payable amount.
Under UPPCL's unified billing platform upgrade, all rural consumers with legacy 12-digit account numbers were migrated to a new 10-digit ID. You can lookup your new ID on the official portal.

Quick Answer: The Uttar Pradesh electricity bill is determined under the tariff schedules approved by the Uttar Pradesh Electricity Regulatory Commission (UPERC). Domestic electricity consumers fall under category LMV-1 (Light, Fan and Power), which is divided into Urban (LMV-1b) and Rural (LMV-1a) schedules. Both use progressive telescopic slabs, with Urban fixed charges at ₹110/kW/month and Rural fixed charges at ₹90/kW/month, plus a 5% statutory electricity duty.
Understanding UPERC Regulations & Your Electricity Bill
The UPERC regulates retail electricity tariffs across all five state distribution companies in Uttar Pradesh: PVVNL (Paschimanchal), MVVNL (Madhyanchal), DVVNL (Dakshinanchal), PuVVNL (Purvanchal), and KESCO (Kanpur Electricity Supply Company). All five DISCOMs adhere to the unified statewide LMV-1 domestic tariff structure.
Domestic Tariff Slabs (LMV-1): Urban vs. Rural
Under official UPERC tariff orders, domestic consumers are billed under distinct schedules depending on whether the service connection is located in an urban municipal area or a rural village area.
Urban Domestic Tariffs (LMV-1b)
For urban residential consumers, consumption is billed across four telescopic slabs alongside a fixed charge of ₹110 per kW per month:
| Units Consumed (kWh/Month) | Energy Charge (₹/Unit) |
|---|---|
| 0 - 150 units | ₹ 5.50 |
| 151 - 300 units | ₹ 6.00 |
| 301 - 500 units | ₹ 6.50 |
| Above 500 units | ₹ 7.00 |
Note: Fixed connection charges of ₹110 per kW per month and 5% Electricity Duty apply.
Rural Domestic Tariffs (LMV-1a Metered)
Rural domestic consumers benefit from subsidized base slabs to promote rural electrification, with a fixed charge of ₹90 per kW per month:
| Units Consumed (kWh/Month) | Energy Charge (₹/Unit) |
|---|---|
| 0 - 100 units | ₹ 3.35 |
| 101 - 150 units | ₹ 3.85 |
| 151 - 300 units | ₹ 5.00 |
| Above 300 units | ₹ 5.50 |
Note: Fixed connection charges of ₹90 per kW per month and 5% Electricity Duty apply.
Components of a UPPCL Electricity Bill
- Energy Charges: Telescopic sum of units consumed across the applicable rate slabs.
- Fixed Demand Charges: ₹110/kW/month for Urban or ₹90/kW/month for Rural based on sanctioned load.
- Electricity Duty (ED): 5% statutory tax levied by the Government of Uttar Pradesh on energy and fixed charges.
- Late Payment Surcharge: Charged if dues remain unpaid past the prescribed grace period.
Step-by-Step Example Calculation
Consider an urban household consuming 250 units in a 30-day billing cycle with a 2 kW sanctioned load:
- Fixed Charges: 2 kW × ₹ 110 = ₹ 220.00
- Energy Charges: (150 units × ₹ 5.50) + (100 units × ₹ 6.00) = ₹ 825 + ₹ 600 = ₹ 1,425.00
- Electricity Duty (5%): 5% of ₹ 1,425 = ₹ 71.25
- Total Estimated Payable: ₹ 220.00 + ₹ 1,425.00 + ₹ 71.25 = ₹ 1,716.25 (rounded to ₹ 1,716)
