Estimate your SEPCO bill instantly using official NEPRA 2026 tariff slabs. This guide explains protected consumer status (≤200 units), SEPCO FCA range (Rs 3.0‑4.5/unit), and provides real bill examples. Also explore our solar savings calculator and gas bill calculator.
Base estimate includes energy + fixed charges + 18% GST. Actual SEPCO bill may add monthly FCA (Rs 3.0–4.5/unit) and NJ surcharge.
If your monthly consumption is ≤200 units, you qualify as a protected consumer and pay subsidised rates (lifeline rates). If you exceed 200 units in any month, you become non‑protected and your entire consumption is billed at higher rates.
Example: 190 units → Protected → Bill ~Rs 3,115. 210 units → Non‑protected → Bill ~Rs 8,674. Difference of Rs 5,559 for just 20 extra units!
Fuel Cost Adjustment (FCA) for SEPCO typically ranges between Rs 3.0 and Rs 4.5 per unit. Check your monthly bill or visit SEPCO's official FCA page for the exact current rate.

Example 1 – Protected (180 units):
Energy: (50×3.95)+(50×7.74)+(80×13.01) = Rs 1,625
Fixed: Rs 300 | Subtotal: 1,925 | GST: Rs 347 | Base bill: Rs 2,272
Add FCA (Rs 3.8/unit ×180 = Rs 684) → Final ≈ Rs 2,956
Example 2 – Non-Protected (350 units):
Energy: (50×3.95)+(50×7.74)+(100×13.01)+(150×33.10) = Rs 7,018.5
Fixed: Rs 400 | Subtotal: 7,418 | GST: Rs 1,335 | Base bill: Rs 8,753
Add FCA (Rs 3.8/unit ×350 = Rs 1,330) → Final ≈ Rs 10,083
