The National Electric Power Regulatory Authority (NEPRA) raised electricity prices by Rs 2.83 per unit on Wednesday as part of its monthly fuel adjustment.
According to the details, the increase in electricity prices will affect the current month’s (May) electricity bills.
However, Life Line and K-Electric customers are exempt from the hike. The revised price is expected to impose an additional burden of over Rs 26 billion on customers.
Previously, on April 29, K-Electric (KE) sought a whopping Rs18.86/unit hike in the power tariff on account of monthly Fuel Charges Adjustments (FCA) of seven months in an application to NEPRA.
