ISLAMABAD – Another bad news for electricity consumers as proposal to increase power tariff by Rs 0.57 per unit has been tabled.
Central Power Purchasing Agency (CPPA) has submitted an application regarding increase in power tariff in National Electric Power Regulatory Authority (NEPRA).
NEPRA will consider the matter in its meeting being held on May 28. It is pertinent to mention here that the proposed increase in power tariff is on account of fuel cost adjustment.
Earlier, Central Power Purchasing Agency had appealed for a hike on power tariff with Rs1.23 per unit last month from which NEPRA had approved Rs0.81 hike leading to the consumers having to bear an additional financial burden.
