Add this month’s adjustments (optional)

Copy the per-unit FCA and QTA from your bill or our adjustments log. Use a minus sign for a reduction. Some consumers (e.g. lifeline) are excluded from some adjustments.

How the estimate is worked out

Find your rate. It depends on your units this month and whether you are lifeline, protected or unprotected — see the MEPCO tariff table.
Apply the slab rule. Protected consumers above 100 units pay the first 100 units at the lower rate. Unprotected and lifeline consumers pay every unit at their slab’s rate.
Add the fixed charge if you are unprotected and above 300 units (Rs 200 to Rs 1,000 a month).
Add adjustments you enter: units × FCA per unit, units × QTA per unit.

Example (ours, current rates): an unprotected home using 305 units pays 305 × Rs 37.99 = Rs 11,586.95, plus a Rs 200 fixed charge = Rs 11,786.95 before adjustments and taxes. At 300 units it would be 300 × Rs 33.10 = Rs 9,930 with no fixed charge — five extra units cost about Rs 1,857.

Why your real bill will differ

Taxes are added to the electricity charge; this calculator does not include them.
Adjustments change every month (FCA) and quarter (QTA), and not every consumer pays every adjustment. Recent amounts are in the adjustments log.
Arrears, instalments, surcharges or credits from earlier bills.
Status changes: going over 200 units once makes a protected home unprotected for six months.
Estimated bills: a defective-meter bill is estimated from last year’s use, not this month’s.
