PESCO Tariff & Slab Guide

The residential per-unit rates behind your PESCO bill — every slab, protected and unprotected, plus the surcharge, duty, GST and fixed charges that sit on top. Dated and honest about how old the figures are.

Reviewed July 2024Progressive slabsMatches the estimator

These are the residential (domestic, non‑ToU) slab rates the estimator on this site uses. They follow the NEPRA‑notified structure and were last reviewed July 2024. Pakistan revises base tariffs at least yearly and the fuel adjustment (FPA) changes every month, so treat every figure here as a working reference and confirm against your printed PESCO bill.

Unprotected (standard residential)

Charged progressively: the first 100 units at the first rate, the next 100 at the next, and so on.

Units per monthRs / unit
1 – 100Rs 23.59
101 – 200Rs 30.07
201 – 300Rs 34.26
301 – 400Rs 39.15

601 – 700Rs 43.60

Protected

For households that have stayed at or below 200 units a month. Cross the cap and protected status is lost for that month.

Units per monthRs / unit

101 – 200Rs 14.16

Surcharges, taxes & fixed charges

  • SurchargeRs 3.23 / unit

  • Fuel Price Adjustment (FPA)varies every month

Rates last reviewed: July 2024. These are indicative residential (non‑ToU) rates held on this page, not a live feed from NEPRA. Tariffs are revised periodically and fuel adjustments change monthly, so confirm against your printed bill or the official PESCO portal.

How the slabs add up

Domestic electricity in Pakistan is billed on progressive slabs. If you used 350 units, you are not charged 350 units at one rate: the first 100 are billed at the first rate, units 101–200 at the second, 201–300 at the third, and the final 50 at the fourth. That is exactly what the Bill Estimator does for you, line by line.

Crossing a slab boundary raises the rate only on the units above it — not on your whole consumption. Trimming a heavy month back under a boundary can still be worth it, because the top units are the dearest.
