The Kerala State Electricity Boards (KSEB) has revised Electricity Tariff for domestic users in Kerala. The new tariff is applicable from August 16, 2014.

About the KSEB

Kerala State Electricity Regulatory Commission is governing authority of Government of Kerala to look after power supply, consumption and related issues in the state.

The domestic consumers using less than 40 units a month are exempted from tariff hike.

The power subsidy is available to BPL families only.

What is telescopic billing?

KSEB follows a slab system for electricity billing.

According to this slab system, there are different rates applied for different slabs of electricity consumption.

As you move up in the slabs, the rate per unit goes up significantly. You will be billed different rates for the units consumed according to the slabs.

This is called telescopic billing.

Under the new arrangement, KSEB follows a Slab System to bill consumers. The new rates for each category are given below:
