NEPRA Raises Power Tariff by Rs. 2.58/unit

The National Electric Power Regulatory Authority (NEPRA) on Friday notified a Rs. 2.58/unit increase to electricity tariffs for consumers nationwide through monthly and quarterly fuel cost adjustments.

In its notification, the regulator said it was increasing the electricity tariff by Rs. 2.06/unit under the monthly fuel cost adjustment for July. This effectively places an additional burden of Rs. 33 billion on consumers.

Also on Friday, NEPRA set quarterly adjustment for September to November 2026 at Re. 0.52/unit. This decision imposes an additional burden of Rs. 12.67 billion on consumers. Both combined raise the price of electricity for the coming month by Rs. 2.58/unit.

According to NEPRA, power distribution companies and K-Electric would reflect the July 2026 adjustments in the billing month of September.
