The billing cycle for PGVCL is structured on a monthly basis. This means that customers are required to make payments for their electricity usage every month.
PGVCL bill charges per unit vary based on a tariff rate and a slab system. Different slabs are defined depending on the monthly consumption of units. Rates vary for each slab for instance consuming less than 50 units per month costs Rs. 1.5 per unit.
51-150 units per month cost Rs. 3.5 per unit.
PGVCL levies a late surcharge of 1.25% on the outstanding amount if you fail to make payment within 15 days from the billing date.
Calculate your PGVCL bill by understanding the applicable slab system. Multiply the number of units you consumed by the corresponding slab rate. Example calculation for 75 units: (50 units * Rs. 1.5 per unit) + (25 units * Rs. 3.5 per unit) = Rs. 75 + Rs. 87.5 = Rs. 162.5.
If a PGVCL payment fails but the amount is deducted, the refund is usually processed automatically to the original payment method within 3 to 7 working days. The exact timeline depends on your bank or payment provider. If the refund is delayed beyond this period, you should contact the payment platform’s customer support with the transaction reference number.
