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

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

For the first 40 units who come under the BPL Category Candidates with connected load 1000 watts or below, the rate is Rs 1.50 per unit.

Even for BPL category, if the monthly consumption goes above 40 units, the following general rates are applicable for BPL category as well.
