Tripura electricity bill calculator — how your bijli bill is built
TSECL serves Tripura on the TERC FY 2026-27 order of 4 May 2026 (effective 1 May 2026): ₹5.53 (0–50), ₹6.93 (51–150), ₹7.32 (151–300) and ₹8.52 (301+) per unit, with slab-linked fixed charges (₹35–₹65/month, ₹55 used here as the typical band) and 5% electricity duty.
Agartala and the districts share one tariff; the new order keeps the FY 2024-25 slab structure with small per-unit additions of 15–20 paise.
Example: your Tripura bill for 250 units
Take a Tripura household using 250 units in one month on TSECL. The telescopic energy charge is 50 × ₹5.53 + 100 × ₹6.93 + 100 × ₹7.32 = ₹1701.50. Add the fixed charge (₹32.00), FAC (₹0.00) and electricity duty (₹86.68) — that gives a gross bill of ₹1820.18. With no subsidy in this state, ₹1820.18 is your payable.
Here is the same 250 units across every DISCOM in Tripura — useful when your board's name differs from the common one:
| DISCOM | Energy | Fixed | FAC | Duty | Subsidy | Total |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| TSECL | ₹1701.50 | ₹32.00 | ₹0.00 | ₹86.68 | — | ₹1820.18 |
Does Tripura offer a free-unit scheme?
Tripura 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 |
|---|---|---|---|
| TSECL | 1–50 @ ₹5.53, 51–150 @ ₹6.93, 151–300 @ ₹7.32, 301–above 301 @ ₹8.52 | ₹16/kW load (₹16 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.
4 practical ways to lower your Tripura bill
- The first 50 units at ₹5.53 are the cheapest — keeping base usage lean matters most.
- Humidity makes dehumidifiers and AC the load kings; 26°C helps hold the 150-unit line.
- Crossing 300 units opens the ₹8.52 top slab — the steepest step on the Tripura ladder.
- Solar suits the region; at these rates a small plant trims the top slab fastest.
