The National Electric Power Regulatory Authority (NEPRA) approved an increase in electricity prices of Rs1.24 per unit on Monday. According to a notification issued by the regulatory authority, the power tariff has been increased due to a quarterly fuel adjustment. Customers will be charged the additional amount in their bills for the months of July, August, and September. The decision would cost inflation-stricken consumers Rs46.53 billion. The revised prices will not be applicable to K-electric customers.
