Frequently Asked Questions

How is the electricity bill calculated in India?

Indian electricity bills use a slab-based (tiered) system where the first X units cost less per unit and usage above that costs more. Your bill = (energy charges by slab) + fixed meter charge + fuel/power purchase adjustment charge + electricity duty/tax − any government subsidy. Use Clacify's Electricity Bill Calculator to see each component separately for your DISCOM.

Why is my electricity bill so high this month?

Common reasons: (1) You crossed a higher tariff slab — in slab systems, using 201 units instead of 200 means ALL units are charged at the higher rate in some states. (2) Fuel surcharge increased quarterly. (3) Air conditioner running longer in summer. (4) Geyser or EV charger added to usage. Use the calculator to find exactly which slab you're in.

How to reduce electricity bill in India?

Top 5 ways: (1) Set AC to 24°C or higher — each degree lower adds 6% to consumption. (2) Switch to 5-star BEE-rated appliances. (3) Stay within lower slabs — if you're at 195 units, reducing by 5 saves disproportionately. (4) Use LED bulbs. (5) Turn off geysers 15 minutes after use and switch to solar water heaters for maximum savings.
