Nepra announces increase of Rs 4.56 in electricity prices<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The National Electric Power Regulatory Authority (Nepra<\/a>) has announced an immediate increase of Rs 4.56 per unit in electricity prices, citing the December fuel adjustment.<\/p>\n

This adjustment, effective immediately, is set to burden consumers with an additional Rs40 billion in the upcoming month.<\/p>\n

This escalation in tariffs continues a recent trend, with electricity prices surging by a total of Rs8.69 in the past two months. November alone saw a Rs4.13 increase, leading to a collective extra cost of Rs76 billion for consumers within this short two-month span.<\/p>\n

The price hike applies to all consumer categories, excluding K-Electric and Lifeline customers.<\/p>\n

Attributed to fluctuations in fuel costs during December 2023, the impact on individual bills will vary based on consumption levels and specific tariff categories.<\/p>\n

This supplementary cost adds strain to households and businesses already grappling with rising inflation, potentially leading to heightened production costs for industries reliant on electricity and influencing product prices.<\/p>\n
