NEPRA held a public hearing on Wednesday on the motion filed by the Ministry of Energy to apply quarterly adjustments (QTA) of Rs 0.4689 per unit and Rs 1.2489 per unit for the 2nd and 3rd quarter of FY22-23 respectively. The request was filed by the Ministry to maintain uniform tariff across the country, as these quarterly adjustments have already been determined and applied for XWDISCOs.
NEPRA will further scrutinize the request and issue a final decision through a determination on the amount to be passed on to customers as part of procedure. Distribution Companies across Pakistan operate in a regulated environment, and follow the directions issued by NEPRA and the Government of Pakistan regarding the costs of electricity to be applied on customers’ monthly bills. Individual Distribution Companies cannot influence the process or make unilateral changes.
