About CED Chandigarh tariff structure

Electricity Department, Chandigarh Administration bills domestic consumers using a telescopic slab structure. Each slab applies only to the units within that range, so adding a few more units never reprices your earlier (cheaper) units.

Beyond energy charges, the CED Chandigarh bill includes a fixed charge of a load-band based amount on your sanctioned load, an FAC pass-through of ₹0.15/unit (revised monthly), and Chandigarh electricity duty of 0%.

We verify CED Chandigarh rates against the latest SERC tariff order quarterly. Last verified: 2026-04-22. Original source: official tariff order.
