LESCO Protected Consumer – How to Stay Under 200 Units

What is a protected consumer in LESCO? If your monthly electricity consumption is 200 units or less, you qualify for subsidised rates (lifeline tariff). Exceed 200 units in any month and you become non‑protected, paying much higher rates for ALL units consumed that month.

Example: 190 units → Protected → Bill ~Rs 3,115. 210 units → Non‑protected → Bill ~Rs 8,674. That’s a difference of Rs 5,559 for just 20 extra units! To save money, monitor your meter every 5 days and reduce usage if you approach 180 units by the 25th of the month.

LESCO FCA Range 2026 – Fuel Cost Adjustment

FCA for LESCO typically ranges between Rs 2.8 and Rs 4.2 per unit. This monthly surcharge reflects changes in fuel prices. Check your bill or visit LESCO's official FCA page for the exact current rate. A 350‑unit bill at Rs 3.5/unit FCA adds Rs 1,225 to your total.
