✅ What is Protected Consumer Status for GEPCO?

If your monthly consumption is ≤200 units, you qualify as a protected consumer and pay subsidised rates (lifeline rates). If you exceed 200 units in any month, you become non‑protected and your entire consumption is billed at higher rates.

Example: 190 units → Protected → Bill ~Rs 3,115. 210 units → Non‑protected → Bill ~Rs 8,674. Difference of Rs 5,559 for just 20 extra units!

📉 GEPCO FCA Range 2026

Fuel Cost Adjustment (FCA) for GEPCO typically ranges between Rs 2.8 and Rs 3.8 per unit. Check your monthly bill or visit GEPCO’s official FCA page for the exact current rate.

📌 Real GEPCO Bill Calculation Examples (including FCA)

Example 1 – Protected (180 units):
Energy: (50×3.95)+(50×7.74)+(80×13.01) = Rs 1,625
Fixed: Rs 300 | Subtotal: 1,925 | GST: Rs 347 | Base bill: Rs 2,272
Add FCA (Rs 3.3/unit ×180 = Rs 594) → Final ≈ Rs 2,866

Example 2 – Non-Protected (350 units):
Energy: (50×3.95)+(50×7.74)+(100×13.01)+(150×33.10) = Rs 7,018.5
Fixed: Rs 400 | Subtotal: 7,418 | GST: Rs 1,335 | Base bill: Rs 8,753
Add FCA (Rs 3.3/unit ×350 = Rs 1,155) → Final ≈ Rs 9,908

💡 How to Reduce Your GEPCO Bill

• Stay under 200 units – Protected consumer rates save you thousands.
• Monitor your meter every 5 days – If you reach 160 units by the 25th, reduce usage drastically.
• Set AC to 26°C – Each degree below 26 adds 8% to your bill.
• Install LED bulbs – Replace 10 bulbs → save 30‑50 units monthly.
• Use fans instead of ACs when possible – Fans consume only 70W, ACs 1500W.

How this GEPCO bill estimate is calculated

Tariff data last reviewed: 23 August 2026. Slab rates used by this page are stored in a single file (assets/tariffs.js) and applied to every calculator on this site.

1. Your monthly units are split across the NEPRA domestic slabs and each part is charged at its own rate.
2. A fixed (minimum) monthly charge is added according to your consumption band.
3. General Sales Tax at 18% is applied to the energy plus fixed charge.

The result is a base estimate. It deliberately excludes items that change every month and are printed on your own bill.

Why your actual GEPCO bill can differ

• Fuel Cost Adjustment (FCA) – typically around Rs 2.8–3.8 per unit for GEPCO, changing monthly. Multiply your units by the FCA on your bill and add it.
• Quarterly tariff adjustments – recovered over several months and shown as a separate line.
• Billing period length – a cycle of 33 days records more units than one of 28 days.
• Arrears and late-payment surcharge – unpaid amounts from earlier months.
• Fixed line items – meter rent, TV fee and, where applicable, income tax or municipal charges.
• Time-of-Use meters – if your bill lists peak and off-peak units separately, a single-rate slab estimate will not match it.

GEPCO's region has a high share of small home-based manufacturing in Sialkot and Gujranwala, so households sometimes find part of their load billed on a commercial meter with different rates.

What you need before using the GEPCO calculator

Only one number: units consumed this month. You can find it in two ways.

• Read the Units Consumed field on your printed GEPCO bill.
• Or subtract the previous meter reading from the current reading – both are printed on the same bill.
