A day after the National Electric Power Regulatory Authority (NEPRA) approved K-Electric’s (KE) request for a hike in electricity tariff for Karachi consumers, the power utility sought another increase of Rs 3.09 under fuel charge adjustment (FCA).
The KE sought Rs 3.09 hike under the fuel adjustment for the month of July which will be charged from the consumer in the electricity bills of November if the request is approved
The increase in electricity prices for KE consumers is expected to add a burden of over Rs 10 billion on Karachiites.
The NEPRA will hear KE’s request for provisional monthly fuel charge adjustments (FCA) on August 29.
