Frequently Asked Questions
What is UPPCL and how does it calculate electricity bills?

UPPCL (Uttar Pradesh Power Corporation Limited) is the state electricity board of Uttar Pradesh. It calculates bills based on fixed charges (based on contracted load) and energy charges (based on units consumed), with different rates for various consumer categories and consumption slabs.
How accurate is this bill calculator?
▼
Our calculator uses the official tariff rates approved by UPERC for FY 2024-25. While it provides highly accurate estimates, the actual bill may vary slightly due to additional charges like electricity duty, meter rent, or other regulatory surcharges that may apply.
What is the difference between rural and urban tariff schedules?

What are lifeline consumers and how do they benefit?
▼
Lifeline consumers are those with contracted load of 1 kW and energy consumption up to 100 kWh per month. They enjoy the lowest tariff rates and maximum subsidies, making electricity more affordable for low-income households.
How are tube well connections charged differently?
▼
Tube well connections (LMV-5) are charged based on BHP (Brake Horse Power) instead of kW. Rural tube wells receive substantial subsidies to support agricultural activities, while urban tube wells pay higher rates.
What additional charges might appear on my actual bill?

Additional charges may include electricity duty, meter rent, late payment surcharge, fuel and power purchase adjustment surcharge (FPPAS), and other regulatory charges as applicable. These vary and are updated periodically.
