Common DNHPDCL bill traps
Distribution and transmission are now separate companies
DNH & DD Power Corporation Ltd (formerly DNHPDCL) now handles only transmission and is fully UT-owned, while your actual bill and retail supply come from the separately branded Torrent Power joint venture, DNHDDPDCL — don't confuse the two similarly named entities.
Your bill comes via a private operator's portal, not a .gov.in domain
Since April 2022, bill payment runs through Torrent Power's own consumer portal (connect.torrentpower.com) rather than a UT government site — bookmark the correct one to avoid confusion with older DNH-specific government pages.
The jump above 100 units is large
The domestic rate rises from ₹4.00 to ₹6.50/unit once you cross 100 units — a 62% jump on every additional unit.
How the DNHPDCL bill is calculated
Low-cost power in an industrial UT
The Dadra & Nagar Haveli and Daman & Diu UT is heavily industrial and offers some of India’s cheapest power to industry; domestic supply uses a simple two-slab structure of about ₹4.00 and ₹6.50/unit.
How the Dadra & Nagar Haveli and Daman & Diu bill is calculated
Dadra & Nagar Haveli and Daman & Diu domestic supply is billed monthly. Consumption is split across telescopic slabs from ₹4 to ₹6.5/unit, each band charged at its own rate. A fixed charge of a flat ₹30/month applies.
Your bill, component by component
Based on the 150-unit example above. Expand each line for what it means and whether you can influence it.
Energy chargeReducible₹725.00+
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 ₹725.00.
Fuel cost adjustment (FCA)Set by DISCOM₹0.00+
A ₹0/unit pass-through surcharge that tracks the DISCOM's power-purchase cost. It applies equally to every consumer on this tariff and isn't something you can reduce by changing usage.
Fixed chargeFixed₹30.00+
Charged regardless of how many units you use (flat). 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 | ₹4.00–₹6.50/unit |
| Fixed charge | Flat, independent of usage | ₹30 |
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.

Tips to reduce your DNHPDCL bill
- Where practical, keep usage below your next slab threshold — the marginal units above ₹6.50/unit cost the most.
- For high-usage households, rooftop solar can offset your most expensive top-slab units — see the solar section above.
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. Estimate your solar payback →
About DNHPDCL
The Union Territories of Dadra & Nagar Haveli and Daman & Diu merged into a single UT on 26 January 2020. DNH Power Distribution Corporation Ltd (DNHPDCL), originally founded in 2012 to serve DNH, was restructured and renamed DNH & DD Power Corporation Ltd, retaining only the transmission function (220/66 kV substations and solar generation) as a 100% UT-owned entity.
From 1 April 2022, retail distribution and billing across the whole merged UT moved to a new joint-venture company, Dadra and Nagar Haveli and Daman and Diu Power Distribution Corporation Ltd (DNHDDPDCL), with Torrent Power holding 51% and the UT administration the remaining 49% — one of the first Indian Union Territories to privatise its power distribution business. The venture serves roughly 150,000 customers.
Does one company handle both Dadra & Nagar Haveli and Daman & Diu?
Yes, for retail distribution — DNHDDPDCL (the Torrent Power joint venture) supplies both parts of the merged UT under one tariff. A separate, fully UT-owned company (DNH & DD Power Corporation Ltd, formerly DNHPDCL) handles transmission infrastructure only.

Since April 2022, retail distribution has been run by a new joint-venture company, Dadra and Nagar Haveli and Daman and Diu Power Distribution Corporation Ltd (DNHDDPDCL), in which Torrent Power holds 51% and the UT administration holds the remaining 49% — one of the first Union Territories to privatise power distribution.
