Details of Price Reductions:
- For DISCO Consumers:

- The reduction is based on November’s Fuel Charges Adjustment.
- Consumers will receive the benefit in their January 2025 electricity bills.
- For K-Electric Consumers:

- This reduction corresponds to October’s Monthly Fuel Price Adjustment.
NEPRA’s Notification:
NEPRA has issued official notifications for the revised electricity prices for both DISCOs and K-Electric consumers. This reduction aims to provide relief to electricity users by adjusting for fluctuations in fuel costs.
Impact on Consumers:

This initiative reflects NEPRA’s commitment to ensuring transparency and affordability in electricity tariffs. Consumers are advised to review their bills for January to ensure the adjusted rates are reflected.
