The Complete Bill Calculation Formula

Total Bill =
Energy Charges (by slab)
+ FPA (Rs 0.48 × units)
+ FC Surcharge (Rs 0.43 × units)
+ NJ Surcharge (Rs 0.10 × units)
+ GST (17% on energy + FPA)
+ Electricity Duty (1.5%)
+ TV Fee (Rs 35 flat)
+ Meter Rent (~Rs 1,000+)

Step-by-Step Example: 350 Units (Unprotected Consumer)

Step 1: Energy Charges (Slab Calculation)

Slab	Units	Rate	Amount
1–100	100	Rs 23.59	Rs 2,359
101–200	100	Rs 30.07	Rs 3,007
201–350	150	Rs 34.26	Rs 5,139
Energy Total	350		Rs 10,505

Step 2: Add Variable Surcharges

FPA: 350 × Rs 0.48 = Rs 168
FC Surcharge: 350 × Rs 0.43 = Rs 150.50
NJ Surcharge: 350 × Rs 0.10 = Rs 35

Step 3: Add Taxes

GST (17%): (10,505 + 168) × 17% = Rs 1,814
Electricity Duty (1.5%): 10,505 × 1.5% = Rs 158

Step 4: Fixed Charges

Why is my electricity bill higher than calculation?

Common reasons: (1) Estimated meter reading instead of actual — check if your bill says Estimated; (2) You crossed from Protected to Unprotected status; (3) TP (Theft Penalty) charge added; (4) Arrears from previous months; (5) MDI penalty (for commercial/industrial).
