Goa electricity bill calculator — how your bijli bill is built
The Electricity Department of Goa bills on slabs of ₹2.10 (0–100), ₹3.10 (101–200), ₹4.15 (201–300), ₹5.45 (301–400) and ₹6.60 (401+) per unit with a ₹25/kW monthly fixed charge — and no duty or FAC — a deliberately simple five-slab ladder.
From Panaji to Margao the same JERC-approved tariff applies, and total domestic bills in Goa are among the smallest in India.
Example: your Goa bill for 250 units
Take a Goa household using 250 units in one month on Electricity Dept Goa. The telescopic energy charge is 100 × ₹2.1 + 100 × ₹3.1 + 50 × ₹4.15 = ₹727.50. Add the fixed charge (₹50.00), FAC (₹0.00) — that gives a gross bill of ₹777.50. With no subsidy in this state, ₹777.50 is your payable.
Here is the same 250 units across every DISCOM in Goa — useful when your board's name differs from the common one:
| DISCOM | Energy | Fixed | FAC | Duty | Subsidy | Total |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Electricity Dept Goa | ₹727.50 | ₹50.00 | ₹0.00 | ₹0.00 | — | ₹777.50 |
Does Goa offer a free-unit scheme?
Goa currently bills without a domestic free-unit subsidy, so the calculator's checkbox stays off and no green deduction line appears. That is tariff design, not an error — the energy charge is collected in full and the fixed charge, FAC and duty apply on top. If the state announces a scheme, we add it to the data and the toggle lights up automatically.

The table below is generated from the same data the calculator uses, so what you see here is exactly what is charged. Looking for the per-unit electricity price in The slab column IS your per-unit rate — each rate applies only to the units inside its own slab range.
| DISCOM | Slabs | Fixed charge | FAC |
|---|---|---|---|
| Electricity Dept Goa | 1–100 @ ₹2.1, 101–200 @ ₹3.1, 201–300 @ ₹4.15, 301–400 @ ₹5.45, 401–above 401 @ ₹6.6 | ₹25/kW load (₹25 flat if ≤ 0U) | ₹0/unit |
Remember: in telescopic billing each slab rate applies only to the units inside its range. Many websites multiply one rate by total units — that is wrong and overstates bills. This calculator, like your DISCOM, adds slab by slab.
