Percentage of late tariffs levied by the board

The Udhampur Electricity Board imposes late tariffs on overdue payments to encourage timely bill settlements. The percentage of late tariffs varies based on the outstanding amount and the delay duration.

Typically, a late fee of 1% to 2% of the total bill amount is added for payments delayed by up to 30 days. For delays exceeding 30 days, the late fee increases, compounding monthly until the bill is paid.
