⚡ Electricity Bill Calculator

Indian electricity bills are calculated using a slab-based tariff structure. This means the rate per unit (1 kWh) increases as your consumption goes up. Each state electricity board sets its own slab rates, fixed charges, and surcharges.

Key Components of Your Bill:

• Energy Charge: Cost per unit (kWh) consumed, calculated slab-wise
• Fixed / Demand Charge: Monthly fixed amount based on connected load or sanctioned demand
• Fuel Adjustment Charge (FAC): Variable charge based on fuel cost fluctuations
• Electricity Duty / Tax: State-imposed duty, typically 5-16% of the energy charge
• Subsidies: Some states provide subsidies for low-consumption households

Tips to Reduce Your Electricity Bill:

• Use BEE 5-star rated appliances (ACs, refrigerators, fans)
• Switch to LED lights — they use 75% less energy than incandescent bulbs
• Set AC temperature to 24°C — each degree lower increases consumption by ~6%
• Use solar panels to offset grid consumption and reduce bills
• Turn off appliances completely — standby mode still consumes electricity
