About WapdaBill.pk
WapdaBill.pk is an independent online utility bill information portal for Pakistani consumers. The site was built with one purpose: to make it faster and easier for households and businesses across Pakistan to check, understand and pay their electricity and gas bills.
Pakistan has seven electricity distribution companies (DISCOs) covering different provinces and regions: LESCO (Lahore), GEPCO (Gujranwala), FESCO (Faisalabad), IESCO (Islamabad and Rawalpindi), MEPCO (Multan and South Punjab), PESCO (Peshawar and KPK) and HESCO (Hyderabad and interior Sindh). For gas, SNGPL serves Punjab and KPK while SSGC covers Sindh and Balochistan.
Each utility has its own website and bill checking portal. WapdaBill brings them all together in one place, so you do not need to remember nine different URLs. The bill data is fetched in real time from the official PITC billing server and from the individual utility company servers, so the amounts and due dates you see here are the same as on the official portals.
The site also provides detailed guides on how to read your bill, what each charge means, how tariff slabs work, how to pay online and how to register complaints. These guides are updated regularly to reflect changes in NEPRA and OGRA tariff determinations.
Why Use WapdaBill Instead of the Official Utility Websites?
Official utility websites work well, but they are often slow, difficult to navigate on mobile phones and spread across different domains. WapdaBill is optimised for mobile use, loads quickly on 3G and 4G connections and keeps all nine utilities accessible from one address. The bill checking functionality is identical since we use the same backend data source.
We also provide additional value through our tariff rate tables, payment guides and complaint procedures that are not always easy to find on the official utility websites. Over time, we plan to add load shedding schedules, NEPRA complaint tracking and tariff calculators.
Understanding Your Electricity Bill in Pakistan
Pakistani electricity bills include several charges beyond the base unit rate. Here is a breakdown of what each line item on your WAPDA or DISCO bill means.
Energy Charges
The core charge for units of electricity consumed during the billing month. Calculated by multiplying units consumed by the applicable per-unit rate from the NEPRA-approved tariff slabs. The rate increases as you consume more units, moving you into higher slabs.
Fixed Charges
A flat monthly charge applied regardless of consumption. The amount varies by consumption slab and connection type. Protected consumers (up to 50 units) pay Rs. 75/month while higher slab consumers pay up to Rs. 500/month. Fixed charges cover grid maintenance costs.
Fuel Adjustment Charges (FAC)
A variable monthly charge set by NEPRA to reflect changes in the cost of electricity generation fuel (natural gas, oil, imported coal, LNG). FAC is determined each month and can be positive (additional charge) or negative (rebate). It appears as a separate line on the bill.
Electricity Duty
A provincial tax levied by the respective provincial government on electricity consumption. The rate varies by province. Punjab and KPK charge 1.5 percent while other provinces may differ. This amount is collected by the DISCO and remitted to the provincial government.
TV Fee
A government levy collected through electricity bills on behalf of PTV (Pakistan Television Corporation). Domestic consumers pay Rs. 35 per month and commercial consumers pay Rs. 60 per month as TV license fee, included in the electricity bill for collection convenience.
General Sales Tax (GST)
GST at the standard rate is applied to electricity bills above the protected consumer threshold. Lifeline and protected consumers (up to 50 units) are generally exempt from GST on electricity. Above this threshold, GST adds 17 to 18 percent on top of the energy and fixed charges.
Surcharge for Late Payment
If you pay your bill after the due date printed on the bill, a surcharge of 10 percent of the net payable amount is added. The surcharge is automatically included in the next month's bill if the current bill remains unpaid beyond the due date.
Meter Rent
A monthly charge for the electricity meter installed at your premises, which remains the property of the utility company. Single-phase residential meters typically attract Rs. 10 to Rs. 25 per month in meter rent depending on the meter type and connection class.

Bank Branches
Any branch of National Bank of Pakistan, HBL, MCB, UBL and most other commercial banks accepts utility bill payments over the counter. Bring your printed bill or just your reference number. Some banks may charge a small processing fee for over-the-counter bill payments.

Frequently Asked Questions About Utility Bills in Pakistan
LESCO, GEPCO, FESCO, IESCO, MEPCO, PESCO and HESCO are all electricity Distribution Companies (DISCOs) formed from the breakup of WAPDA in 1998. Each covers a different geographic area. LESCO covers Lahore and central Punjab, GEPCO serves Gujranwala division, FESCO covers Faisalabad and surrounding districts, IESCO serves Islamabad and Rawalpindi, MEPCO covers South Punjab, PESCO serves KPK and HESCO covers interior Sindh. All DISCOs apply the same NEPRA-approved national tariff but have different load shedding schedules based on local system losses.
Your 14-digit reference number is printed on the top right section of every electricity bill, labelled "Reference No." or "Ref. No." It is also printed in the payment stub at the bottom of the bill. The first few digits of the reference number identify your DISCO circle and subdivision. If you do not have a copy of your bill, you can contact your DISCO's helpline (118) with your name and address to retrieve your reference number.
Yes. WapdaBill has no login or account requirement, so you can check as many bills as you like. Simply enter a different reference number each time. If you manage multiple properties, bookmark this page and check each connection's bill by entering its unique reference number.
If you believe your bill is incorrect, first compare the meter reading on the bill with the actual reading on your meter. If there is a discrepancy, call 118 immediately and request a meter inspection. You can also visit your DISCO's nearest subdivision office and submit a written billing complaint. Under NEPRA regulations, DISCOs must resolve billing disputes within 15 working days. If unresolved, you can escalate the complaint to NEPRA directly at nepra.org.pk.
Yes. Your reference number is a public identifier on your bill. It does not give access to your account, allow any changes to your connection or reveal any sensitive personal data. The same reference number is printed on every bill and shared with bank tellers and payment agents when you pay. WapdaBill does not store reference numbers or any personal information from your searches.
There are two common reasons. First, the current month's bill may not yet be generated. Utility companies update their billing servers in batches, typically within the first few days of the billing month. If the bill has not been issued yet, no data will appear. Second, check that you have entered the correct number of digits. LESCO and most DISCOs use 14 digits. SNGPL and SSGC use 10-digit consumer numbers. Count the digits on your printed bill carefully.
A surcharge of 10 percent of the net payable amount is added to your account and appears on the next month's bill. If the bill remains unpaid for two consecutive months, your DISCO can disconnect your electricity supply without further notice. Reconnection after disconnection requires paying all outstanding dues plus a reconnection fee. It is always cheaper and simpler to pay on or before the due date.
NEPRA-approved residential tariff slabs for 2025-26: up to 50 units at Rs. 7.74/unit (lifeline), 51 to 100 units at Rs. 16.45/unit, 101 to 200 units at Rs. 22.65/unit, 201 to 300 units at Rs. 28.30/unit, 301 to 700 units at Rs. 31.75/unit and above 700 units at Rs. 39.00/unit. Fixed charges and fuel adjustment charges apply separately. Rates are subject to NEPRA revision. Check each individual utility page on WapdaBill for the most current information.
