IN a move that will bring significant relief to the people of Delhi, a surcharge levied on power bills has been drastically reduced in the city, said the Delhi government on Friday.
The Power Purchase Adjustment Charge (PPAC) rates, which were previously 27.08% for BRPL, 31.6% for BYPL, and 29.33% for TPDDL, have been reduced to 18.19%, 13.63%, and 20.52%, respectively. This reduction will result in lower electricity bills for all consumers across Delhi.
Chief Minister Atishi, who also holds the Power portfolio, stated that this was made possible due to honest AAP governance.
The chief minister highlighted that the government has consistently prioritised shielding consumers from excessive tariff hikes by ensuring that power distribution companies (DISCOMs) adhere to the regulations set by the Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission (DERC).
