There will be another hike of 56 Paise for per unit electricity consumed by every domestic consumer. The revised rate will be implemented from August 1st, 2011, thus taking the per unit rate to Rs 5.16 from the present Rs 4.60.
Mentionable that 25 Paise hike in per unit power consumed was made in May last this year. Mentionable that the power tarrifs would be raised every three months to shelve out the deficit that ASEB has been suffering per month and ASEB Chairman has explained the hike in gas fuel price has the prime reason for this power hike.
