Published 29 August 2026
Peshawar Electric Supply Company (PESCO) distributes power across Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Understanding PESCO tariff slabs helps consumers manage their monthly electricity consumption and avoid jumping into higher cost brackets.

- Unprotected Category: Consumers exceeding 200 units or with seasonal spikes in energy use fall into progressive slab tiers (1-100, 101-200, 201-300, 301-700, and 700+ units).
Additional Bill Taxes & Surcharges
Your PESCO bill total includes the base unit rate plus:
- Fuel Price Adjustment (FPA)
- Financing Cost Surcharge (FC Surcharge)
- Electricity Duty (ED) & General Sales Tax (GST 18%)
- TV Fee (Rs. 35 Domestic / Rs. 60 Commercial)
