How MEPCO calculates your bill
- Units = present reading − previous reading on your MEPCO bill.
- Energy cost = units × the rate for your slab (protected consumers up to 200 units get lower, telescopic rates).
- Fixed charges = rate per kW × sanctioned load.
- FPA = units × the fuel price adjustment NEPRA approved for an earlier month.
- Taxes: electricity duty and 18% GST, plus income tax for consumers not on the Active Taxpayer List where applicable.
Reading your MEPCO bill
- Reference number – 14 digits, used to check bills online and pay through banking apps.
- Sanctioned load – in kW; it decides your fixed charges.
- Units consumed – the billing month and the last 12 months history, useful to check protected status.
- Arrears and adjustments – previous unpaid amounts and corrections.

Frequently asked questions
Are MEPCO per-unit rates different from other companies?
No. MEPCO charges the same uniform national domestic tariff notified by the federal government and NEPRA as the other distribution companies. Differences between bills come from units used, sanctioned load, FPA, taxes and arrears.
