KESC allowed to raise tariff, says Nepra



By Our Staff Reporter


ISLAMABAD, Sept 14: The National Electric Power Regulatory Authority (Nepra) officially announced here on Saturday that it had allowed an average 6.5 per cent increase in consumer tariff to the Karachi Electric Supply Company (KESC).

The announcement said no increase had been granted for domestic consumers using up to 50 units per month but beyond this limit the household consumers would be charged 27 paisa per unit higher than the existing rate. An average 27 paisa per unit increase has been allowed for commercial consumers, 36 paisa per unit for industrial consumers and 28 paisa per unit increase for average bulk consumers.

The rates for agricultural tubewells in Sindh and Balochistan have been increased by 62 paisa and 60 paisa, respectively.

Nepra said there might be a possibility of reduction in consumer tariff at the end of seven years period or even before.
