How your bill is calculated
- Cost of electricity: units × your slab rate. Non-protected consumers pay the rate of the slab they fall in on all units, so crossing a slab line by even one unit raises the whole bill.
- Fixed charges: your sanctioned load in kW × the fixed rate for your slab.
- FC surcharge: Rs 3.23 per unit (Rs 0.43 for protected consumers).
- Fuel price adjustment (FPA): a monthly per-unit charge or credit decided by NEPRA.
- Quarterly adjustment (QTA): a per-unit adjustment that can be positive or negative.
- Electricity duty: about 1.5% of the energy cost and adjustments.
- GST: 18% on the bill amount.
- Income tax: 7.5% extra for non-filers when the bill is Rs 25,000 or more.
Protected vs non-protected consumers
You are a protected consumer if your home used 200 units or less in each of the last six months. Protected consumers pay much lower rates. Cross 200 units even once and you can lose protected status for the next six months, so keep an eye on summer AC use.

Cut your electricity bill with solar
Every unit your solar panels make and you use directly removes the most expensive units from your bill, and can drop you into a lower slab. In most Pakistani cities, a 5 kW system makes roughly 600–700 units a month. Enter your expected solar units in the calculator above to see your bill after solar. For sizing, try the solar calculator and read how net billing treats exported units.
Frequently asked questions
How is the electricity bill calculated in Pakistan?
Units are charged at your slab rate, then fixed charges, FC surcharge, the monthly fuel adjustment, quarterly adjustment, electricity duty and 18% GST are added. Non-filers with bills of Rs 25,000 or more also pay 7.5% income tax.
What is the per unit price of electricity in Pakistan in 2026?
The base rate ranges from Rs 10.54 for protected consumers up to Rs 47.20 per unit above 700 units. After taxes and adjustments, most homes pay roughly Rs 45 to Rs 65 per unit overall.
Why did my bill jump when I used just a few more units?
Non-protected consumers pay their slab rate on every unit. Moving from 300 to 301 units, for example, moves the whole bill to the 301–400 rate.
Does this calculator work for K-Electric?
Not yet. K-Electric bills follow a different format, so this calculator is designed for ex-WAPDA distribution companies.
