نیپرا نے کے الیکٹرک کا ٹیرف کم کر دیا، حکومتی سبسڈی میں 200 ارب روپے کی کمی

The National Electric Power Regulatory Authority (Nepra) has notified K-Electric's average base tariff at Rs32.37 per unit for FY24-FY30, a Rs7.60 reduction from its original determination. This decision, upheld by Nepra's Appellate Tribunal despite KE's challenge, is expected to reduce the government's subsidy burden by almost Rs200 billion over seven years. K-Electric, deeming the revised tariff financially unsustainable, may pursue further legal remedies. However, KE consumers will continue to pay the uniform tariff applicable to other distribution companies. This fiscal improvement could offer some support to the Pakistani Rupee by enhancing confidence in the government's financial management.
