Your estimated bill
Domestic connection · 200 units per month
Energy charges are your units multiplied by the selected per-unit rate. Other items are added or subtracted only when entered. Your actual bill may differ if your tariff uses slabs, special charges or subsidies.

How is an electricity bill calculated?
A typical electricity bill can include energy charges based on units consumed, fixed or demand charges, fuel and power purchase adjustments, electricity duty or tax, meter-related charges, and eligible rebates or subsidies. The exact formula depends on your distribution company (DISCOM), tariff category, sanctioned load, billing period and official tariff order.
Basic estimate: energy charges are often calculated from units consumed multiplied by the applicable rate. Where the tariff uses slabs, each part of your consumption may have a different rate; a single average rate will not reproduce that slab calculation exactly.
- Find units consumed (kWh) and tariff category on your latest bill.
- Check your provider's official tariff schedule and its effective date.
- Include applicable fixed charges, adjustments, duty and subsidy.
- Compare this estimate with the final amount on your electricity bill.
BijliCalc uses the values entered in the calculator; it does not yet automatically calculate every state’s slab-wise tariff. Treat the result as an estimate and confirm your final amount with your electricity provider.

Frequently asked questions
How do I check how many electricity units I used?
Look for “units consumed”, “kWh”, or the difference between current and previous meter readings on your electricity bill. One unit equals one kWh.
Why can my actual bill be different?
Electricity providers may apply slab-wise rates, fixed or demand charges, fuel adjustments, electricity duty, meter charges, arrears, and subsidies. This simple calculator does not automatically apply every provider-specific rule.
Is this an official electricity bill calculator?
No. BijliCalc is an independent estimation tool and is not affiliated with any DISCOM or government department. Check your provider's official tariff and bill for the final payable amount.
Can I use this for commercial connections?
You can select commercial as a rough planning estimate, but commercial tariffs vary significantly by provider, load and connection category. Enter the rate and charges from your own bill for a more useful estimate.

How to read an Indian electricity bill
Your total is not always simply units multiplied by one rate. A bill may combine energy charges, fixed or demand charges, duties, adjustment charges, arrears and credits. The exact items and formulas depend on the applicable tariff order and your connection type.
1. Check the billing period and units
Confirm the number of days covered and the consumption in kWh (units). A long or short billing period can affect slab calculations, minimum charges and comparisons with another month.
2. Confirm the connection category
Domestic, commercial, industrial and other categories may have different rates. Also check sanctioned load, single-phase/three-phase conditions and whether the provider bills on a low-tension or high-tension tariff.
3. Identify variable and fixed components
Energy charges are generally linked to consumption, while fixed charges may depend on load, connection category or billing period. Some tariffs use progressive slabs; others use different structures. Do not apply a generic slab method unless the official order specifies it.
4. Check adjustments and benefits
Fuel or power-purchase adjustments, electricity duty, meter-related charges, arrears, late fees, rebates and subsidies can materially change the total. Eligibility for a subsidy may depend on provider, consumer category, usage limit or other conditions.
5. Verify the source and date
Use the relevant State Electricity Regulatory Commission tariff order and your DISCOM's published schedule. Check the order's effective date and any later amendments or government subsidy notifications. Keep a copy of the source used for a calculation.
Important: BijliCalc currently helps with estimates using entered values and indicative defaults. It does not yet automate every provider-specific tariff rule. For an official amount, use the bill issued by your electricity provider.
State-wise electricity tariff coverage
Choose from states and Union Territories across India and open the relevant regulator or electricity department website to check current rates. Tariffs can vary by DISCOM, domestic or commercial category, sanctioned load, consumption slab and billing period. This calculator currently uses the rates and charges you enter rather than automatically applying every official tariff schedule.
For the most reliable estimate: use the current official tariff order for your provider and connection category. Check the effective date, energy slabs, fixed or demand charges, duty, fuel adjustment and any eligible subsidy before entering values.
About BijliCalc
BijliCalc is an independent Indian electricity-bill estimation and tariff-literacy project. It is designed to help households, tenants, small businesses and other users understand the main components that can affect an electricity bill. BijliCalc is not a government service, electricity distribution company (DISCOM), regulator or billing authority.
What you can do here
- Estimate a bill from units consumed and the rates and charges entered.
- Review common bill components such as energy charges, fixed charges, adjustments and subsidy credits.
- Find official tariff sources and learn what to check before relying on an estimate.
How we approach accuracy
Electricity tariffs differ by state, distribution company, connection category, sanctioned load, consumption slab, billing period and effective date. A state selection or an indicative average rate is not proof that an official tariff has been implemented. We aim to label estimates honestly, link to primary sources where available, document assumptions and test calculation rules against suitable bill examples before describing a calculation as verified.
At present, the calculator should be treated as an estimate tool. It does not automatically apply every official slab schedule, subsidy, duty, fuel adjustment, demand charge or special billing rule. Please compare its result with your current bill and the applicable tariff order.
Editorial independence and corrections
We welcome corrections supported by an official tariff order, regulator notification or a suitably redacted bill. Never send an unredacted bill containing your name, address, account number, meter number, QR code or other identifying information.

BijliCalc is an independent estimation and educational website. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by or operated by any government department, electricity regulator or DISCOM unless expressly stated for a specific item. The calculator does not issue an official bill, determine legal tariff entitlement or replace the bill issued by your electricity provider.
Estimates are not guaranteed bills
Results depend on the inputs you provide and the calculation features currently implemented. The tool may not include every applicable energy slab, minimum charge, fixed charge, demand charge, load or phase condition, electricity duty, tax, fuel/power-purchase adjustment, meter charge, time-of-day rate, arrear, late fee, rebate, subsidy, deposit, rounding rule or other tariff condition. The same state may have multiple providers and tariff categories.
Tariff sources and effective dates
Tariffs and government subsidies can change. A link to an official source is provided for convenience and does not, by itself, mean that every rate has been extracted, implemented or independently tested in this calculator.
