The National Electric Power Regulatory Authority (NEPRA) has approved an increase of 33 paisas per unit in electricity tariffs under the monthly fuel cost adjustment (FCA) for May 2026.
According to a notification issued on Wednesday, the increase will apply to consumers across Pakistan, including K-Electric customers, and will be reflected in July electricity bills.
The Central Power Purchasing Agency (CPPA) had requested a fuel cost adjustment of Rs0.82 per unit. However, NEPRA approved a lower increase of Rs0.33 per unit after holding a public hearing.
The monthly fuel cost adjustment allows electricity tariffs to be revised in line with fluctuations in fuel prices used for power generation.
