The Government announced net electricity relief of Rs. 46.57 billion for consumers during the first eight months of FY 2025–26 (July–February), despite global fuel price volatility. This includes Rs. 13.28 billion from Fuel Charges Adjustments and Rs. 33.29 billion from Quarterly Tariff Adjustments, resulting in an overall reduction of Rs. 0.71 per kWh at the consumer level.

Industrial users benefited most, with pre-tax tariffs dropping from Rs. 49.19 per unit in March 2024 to Rs. 34.75 per unit in March 2026, a decline of Rs. 14.44 per unit. While the relief offsets some costs, temporary increases in adjustments have limited the net benefit, leaving consumers partially exposed to rising charges.

The Government continues to monitor fuel prices, exchange rates, and supply disruptions while coordinating with stakeholders to mitigate future electricity cost pressures.
