How UPPCL Electricity Bill is Calculated in Uttar Pradesh

UPPCL electricity bills follow a telescopic slab tariff structure established by the Uttar Pradesh Electricity Regulatory Commission (UPERC). Under telescopic billing, your consumption is divided across rate tiers. Lower units are billed at lower rates, and higher units trigger higher slab tiers.

Example Calculation for 250 Units (Urban LMV-1, 2 kW Load):

First 150 units (0 - 150 kWh): 150 × ₹5.50 = ₹825.00
Next 100 units (151 - 250 kWh): 100 × ₹6.00 = ₹600.00
Total Energy Charges: ₹825 + ₹600 = ₹1,425.00
Fixed Charge: 2 kW × ₹110/kW = ₹220.00
Electricity Duty (5%): 5% of ₹1,425 = ₹71.25
Estimated Total Payable Bill: ₹1,425 + ₹220 + ₹71.25 = ₹1,716.25
