How Telangana (TGSPDCL (TSSPDCL)) Bills You

Understanding slabs, billing cycles, subsidies, and non-tariff exclusions

Electricity distribution in Telangana is governed by the Telangana Electricity Regulatory Commission (TGERC) and supplied by two state utilities: TGSPDCL (Southern Power Distribution Company of Telangana Limited) and TGNPDCL (Northern Power Distribution Company of Telangana Limited).

Residential consumers (LT-I Domestic Category) are billed on a monthly billing cycle. Tariff rates follow progressive telescopic slab tiers: 0 to 50 units at ₹1.95/unit; 51 to 100 units at ₹3.10/unit; 101 to 200 units at ₹4.80/unit; 201 to 300 units at ₹7.70/unit; 301 to 400 units at ₹9.00/unit; 401 to 800 units at ₹9.50/unit; and above 800 units at ₹10.00/unit.

Standard domestic bills also include nominal Fixed Charges (₹10/kW of connected load), a 6% Telangana State Electricity Duty, and periodic Fuel Surcharge Adjustments (FSA).

Under the Telangana Government's Gruha Jyothi welfare scheme, eligible domestic households holding a valid food security card receive zero-cost electricity up to 200 units per month. Usage exceeding 200 units in a billing month forfeits the subsidy for that period. Consumers should verify active scheme rules directly on the official DISCOM portals.

What is NOT included in this standard estimate: This model computes standard domestic retail tariffs. Actual utility statements may include past unpaid arrears, late payment surcharges, or commercial connection fees.
