Understanding the Upcoming Changes to Electricity Tariffs
If you’re a homeowner or business operator, keeping track of electricity rates can feel a bit like navigating a maze. Recently, some important news emerged that everyone should be aware of. The National Electric Power Regulatory Authority (NEPRA) has officially confirmed that starting January 1, 2026, the basic electricity tariff will remain unchanged across Pakistan. This can be a relief for many, especially with the regular fluctuations in utility costs.
So, what does this mean for you? During a recent hearing, NEPRA approved a request from the federal government to maintain the current rates, ensuring that consumers nationwide, including those with K-Electric, won’t see any hikes in their basic tariffs. This decision provides a level of stability for households and businesses alike.
Here’s a quick breakdown of the rates for various domestic categories: Protected consumers will still pay Rs10.54 per unit for the first 100 units, and Rs13.01 for up to 200 units. If you’re a non-protected consumer, the rates stand at Rs22.44 for 1-100 units and Rs28.91 for 101-200 units. The cost increases incrementally as usage rises, with rates set at Rs33.10 per unit for 201-300 units and topping out at Rs47.69 per unit for those using 701 units and above.
Maintaining these rates means consumers can plan their budgets more effectively without the fear of unexpectedly rising costs. It’s crucial, especially for families and small businesses watching their monthly expenses closely.
