The Punjab Government has ordered that domestic consumers of IESCO who used between 201 and 500 electricity units in August will get a relief of 14 rupees per unit. According to IESCO, consumers in domestic tariff groups 1 to 5 who have already paid their bills will see the excess amount adjusted in their September bills. The revised bills with relief would be dispatched to the homes of those who have not paid yet.
Similarly, the bills for the consumers of groups 6 to 15 were being printed with relief and would be delivered in due course. To facilitate the consumers, IESCO has extended the last date of payment. Updated bills will be available on their website at www.iesco.com.pk.
