Due to a monthly fuel adjustment, the National Electric Electricity Regulatory Authority (NEPRA) approved an increase in the power rate on Tuesday of 0.18 rupees per unit (MFA).
Following a public hearing on a petition submitted by the Central Power Purchasing Agency (CPPA) to take into account the monthly fuel adjustment, the power tariff increase was granted (MFA). The complete verdict will be made public later.
