Short answer: A MEPCO bill in November 2026 is units x the uniform slab rate, plus a fixed charge per kW of sanctioned load, Rs 0.43 per unit F.C. surcharge, the Rs 2.3673 fuel adjustment and Rs 0.5194 quarterly adjustment per unit, and 18% sales tax on the total, with income tax for non-filers above Rs 25,000. A Multan home using 400 non-protected units on 2 kW pays about Rs 19,719. At 3 kW, going from 700 to 701 units adds about Rs 4,479.

Which districts MEPCO covers
Multan Electric Power Company has its head office on Khanewal Road, Multan. In its 2023 distribution licence, NEPRA records MEPCO’s territory as 13 districts:
- Multan, Khanewal, Vehari, Lodhran
- Bahawalpur, Bahawalnagar, Rahim Yar Khan
- Dera Ghazi Khan, Rajanpur, Muzaffargarh, Layyah
- Sahiwal, Pakpattan
That is more than 100,000 square kilometres, over six times LESCO’s territory. In the licence filing MEPCO reported about 7.36 million consumers, nine operation circles, 38 divisions and around 181 subdivisions. The licence map names the circles as Multan, Khanewal, Vehari, Bahawalpur, Bahawalnagar, Rahim Yar Khan, Dera Ghazi Khan, Muzaffargarh and Sahiwal.

Three MEPCO bill examples for November 2026
Each includes the November 2026 fuel adjustment of Rs 2.3673 and the quarterly adjustment of Rs 0.5194 under S.R.O. 1501. I checked each with a script.
1. Village home near Vehari: 200 units, protected, 1 kW
Cost of electricity 100 x 10.54 + 100 x 13.01 = Rs 2,355. Fixed 300 x 1 = Rs 300. F.C. surcharge Rs 86. FCA Rs 473.46. QTA Rs 103.88. GST 18% of Rs 3,318.34 = Rs 597.30. Total about Rs 3,916, or Rs 19.58 per unit.
2. Family home in Multan: 400 units, non-protected, 2 kW
Cost of electricity 400 x 36.46 = Rs 14,584. Fixed 400 x 2 = Rs 800. F.C. surcharge Rs 172. FCA Rs 946.92. QTA Rs 207.76. GST 18% of Rs 16,710.68 = Rs 3,007.92. Total about Rs 19,719, or Rs 49.30 per unit.
3. Bahawalpur house in peak summer: 701 units, non-protected, 3 kW
Cost of electricity 701 x 47.20 = Rs 33,087.20. Fixed 675 x 3 = Rs 2,025. F.C. surcharge Rs 301.43. FCA Rs 1,659.48. QTA Rs 364.10. GST 18% of Rs 37,437.21 = Rs 6,738.70. Total about Rs 44,176 for a filer, or Rs 63.02 per unit. At 700 units the same bill is about Rs 39,697, because all 700 units stay at Rs 41.85.
In a MEPCO summer, the single unit from 700 to 701 costs about Rs 4,479, more than a protected home pays for a whole month.
If your summer bills sit near 700 units, read the meter around day 25 of the billing cycle. Cutting AC hours for the last few days to stay at 700 saves more than any other single step.

What is different about MEPCO bills
- Uniform tariff, PITC billing. The rates and bill layout are the same as LESCO, IESCO and FESCO.
- No electricity duty. Unlike K-Electric, MEPCO adds no duty line.
- High summer slabs. Many South Punjab homes cross 500 or 700 units in June and July, where fixed charges reach Rs 675 per kW.
- Non-filer tax. With the November 2026 adjustments, a 3 kW home crosses the Rs 25,000 income tax line for non-filers at 466 units.

Frequently asked questions
What is the MEPCO per unit price in 2026?
Rs 10.54 and Rs 13.01 for protected homes and Rs 22.44 to Rs 47.20 for non-protected homes, before fixed charges, adjustments and tax. A 400 unit bill works out to about Rs 49 per unit all in.
How do I check my MEPCO bill online?
Open bill.pitc.com.pk/mepcobill and enter the reference number from your bill.
How do I use the MEPCO bill calculator with tax?
The calculator always adds 18% GST. Set “On FBR Active Taxpayers List” to No if you are a non-filer: it then adds 7.5% income tax when the bill reaches Rs 25,000.
Is Sahiwal under MEPCO or LESCO?
Sahiwal and Pakpattan are MEPCO districts in its 2023 licence. Okara, next door, is LESCO. The rates are the same either way.
Why is my MEPCO bill so high in summer?
Non-protected homes pay one rate on every unit. Crossing 300, 500 or 700 units raises the rate on the whole bill, and the fixed charge per kW rises too.
Does the MEPCO calculator work for commercial or tube well connections?
No. It covers residential connections below 5 kW. Commercial and agricultural connections use different tariffs.
This MEPCO bill calculator gives an estimate based on the uniform residential tariff in NEPRA’s decision of 11 February 2026 (S.R.O. 279(I)/2026), NEPRA’s September 2026 fuel adjustment and S.R.O. 1501(I)/2026, the Sales Tax Act 1990 and section 235 of the Income Tax Ordinance 2001. Service area from MEPCO’s 2023 NEPRA distribution licence. Rates last checked 10 November 2026. It does not cover lifeline, time of use, prepaid, commercial, agricultural or net metering connections, arrears or late payment surcharge. Your actual bill is what MEPCO issues.
