What are slabs in electricity billing?
Most Indian DISCOMs bill domestic electricity using telescopic slabs — tiered per-unit rates that rise as your consumption increases.
- Each slab has its own rate — for example the first 100 units might be billed at one rate and the next 100 at a higher one.
- Slabs are telescopic, not retroactive — only the units that fall inside a higher slab are billed at that slab's rate, not your entire consumption.
- The slab count resets every billing cycle — monthly, bimonthly or quarterly, depending on your DISCOM.
- Some DISCOMs add a fuel cost adjustment or electricity duty on top of the slab rate — see the tariff table above for what applies here.

Common APSPDCL bill traps
APSPDCL doesn't cover Visakhapatnam
Vizag and the surrounding coastal-north districts are served by a separate company, APEPDCL, not APSPDCL. Confirm which company issues your bill before relying on this calculator.
The six-slab structure is easy to miscalculate by hand
With six separate telescopic bands from ₹1.90 to ₹9.75/unit, manually estimating an AP bill is error-prone — small mistakes in which units fall in which band compound quickly.
The ₹0.06/unit electricity duty isn't in this estimate
It's a small flat addition, but consistently omitted when people estimate their bill by hand.
How the APSPDCL bill is calculated
A fine-grained six-slab tariff
Andhra Pradesh uses an unusually detailed six-slab telescopic tariff for domestic (LT-1) connections, from ₹1.90/unit for the first 30 units up to ₹9.75 above 400. APEPDCL, APCPDCL and APSPDCL all follow the same unified APERC schedule.
How the Andhra Pradesh bill is calculated
Andhra Pradesh domestic supply is billed monthly. Consumption is split across telescopic slabs from ₹1.9 to ₹9.75/unit, each band charged at its own rate. A fixed charge of ₹10 per kW of sanctioned load applies.
Your bill, component by component
Based on the 200-unit example above. Expand each line for what it means and whether you can influence it.
Energy chargeReducible₹867.00+
Priced across telescopic slabs — the more you use, the higher the marginal rate. Shifting usage below your next slab threshold lowers this line directly. This example totals ₹867.00.
Fixed chargeFixed₹30.00+
Charged regardless of how many units you use (₹10/kW × 3 kW). The only way to change this line is to change your phase, sanctioned load, or connection type.
What's included in your bill
| Component | What it is | Typical range |
|---|---|---|
| Energy charge | Units × slab rate, telescopic | ₹1.90–₹9.75/unit |
| Fixed charge | Flat, independent of usage | ₹10/kW of sanctioned load |
How to read your meter
Digital meters show a running total in kWh ("units") on an LCD display — write down the number before the decimal point. To find your consumption for a billing period, subtract your previous reading from your current reading; that is exactly what the "Meter reading" mode in the calculator above does for you. Analog meters use a set of dial gauges read left to right — note the number the pointer has just passed on each dial.
Tools that cut your bill
Swap CFL for LED bulbs
Replacing a 15W CFL with a 9W LED bulb, run 6 hrs/day, saves about ₹128.12/year at Andhra Pradesh's top slab rate (₹9.75/unit) — per bulb.

Top Slab Rate Comparison
APSPDCL's top domestic slab rate is ₹9.75/unit — cheaper than TSSPDCL (₹6.50/unit), — more expensive than TNEB (₹11.55/unit), — cheaper than KSEB (₹8.50/unit). Billing cycles also differ: APSPDCL bills monthly, while TSSPDCL bills monthly, TNEB bills bi-monthly, KSEB bills bi-monthly.
Tips to reduce your APSPDCL bill
- Where practical, keep usage below your next slab threshold — the marginal units above ₹9.75/unit cost the most.
- For high-usage households, rooftop solar can offset your most expensive top-slab units — see the solar section above.
Energy saving tips for Andhra Pradesh electricity bills
Switch to BLDC ceiling fans
BLDC motors typically use 60–70% less power than a regular induction-motor fan for the same airflow.
Choose BEE 5-star rated appliances
A 5-star AC, refrigerator or washing machine can use 20–30% less electricity than a 1-star model of the same capacity.
Set your AC to 24°C or higher
Each degree below 24°C typically adds 3–5% to an AC's power draw — 24°C with a fan running is usually just as comfortable.
Switch to LED lighting
LED bulbs use roughly 80% less energy than incandescent bulbs for the same brightness, and last far longer.
Unplug appliances on standby
TVs, set-top boxes and chargers left plugged in can draw a small standby load around the clock — unplugging them when not in use adds up over a billing cycle.
Net metering explained
Net metering lets a rooftop solar system export surplus power back to the grid through your existing meter, which runs in reverse. At billing time, your DISCOM credits the exported units against what you drew from the grid — you're billed only for the net difference. Combined with telescopic slabs, this typically offsets your most expensive units first.

Frequently asked questions
Is the Andhra Pradesh electricity tariff telescopic?
Yes. Andhra Pradesh charges telescopically: each slab is billed at its own rate, so moving up a slab does not re-price your cheaper units.
What is the fixed charge for a Andhra Pradesh domestic connection?
The fixed charge is ₹10 per kW of sanctioned load.
How accurate is this Andhra Pradesh bill estimate?
It uses the published domestic slab rates and is a close estimate, not a billing-grade figure. A flat ₹0.06/unit electricity duty is not modelled here. Always confirm against your official APSPDCL bill.
Does APSPDCL supply electricity to Visakhapatnam?
No. Visakhapatnam is served by APEPDCL (Eastern Power Distribution Company of AP), a separate distribution company. APSPDCL covers Vijayawada, Guntur, Nellore, Kurnool, Kadapa and Prakasam — check which company's name is on your bill.
How do I check or pay my APSPDCL bill online?
Pay via the official portal at apspdcl.in, using the digital payment section. For queries, call the helpline 1800-425-155333 or the 24×7 power-supply number 1912.
What is APSPDCL, and how did it form?
APSPDCL was incorporated on 1 April 2000 to distribute power in Krishna, Guntur, Prakasam, Nellore, Chittoor and Kadapa districts. After Andhra Pradesh was bifurcated on 2 June 2014, Anantapur and Kurnool districts were added to its territory.
