Unit Rates

Learn how each component shapes your bill

From per-unit energy charges to fixed charges and FAC, this page breaks the terms into practical language.

Per Unit Rate

This is the cost applied to the electricity you consume. Higher usage usually increases the bill significantly.

Fixed Charges

These are recurring charges that do not change based on your monthly units consumed.

FAC

Fuel adjustment cost can vary based on energy procurement and other operational considerations.

Electricity Duty

This component is applied as a statutory charge and may vary by category and geography.

Meter Charges

Some bills include meter-related service charges that may be billed separately.

Example

If you consume 300 units and your per-unit rate is ₹7.00, the energy component is roughly ₹2,100 before other charges.
