What are slabs in electricity billing?
Most Indian DISCOMs bill domestic electricity using telescopic slabs — tiered per-unit rates that rise as your consumption increases.
- Each slab has its own rate — for example the first 100 units might be billed at one rate and the next 100 at a higher one.
- Slabs are telescopic, not retroactive — only the units that fall inside a higher slab are billed at that slab's rate, not your entire consumption.
- The slab count resets every billing cycle — monthly, bimonthly or quarterly, depending on your DISCOM.
- Some DISCOMs add a fuel cost adjustment or electricity duty on top of the slab rate — see the tariff table above for what applies here.

Common LED bill traps
A flat rate means no low-usage discount, but no high-usage penalty either
Because every unit costs the same ~₹1.50, there's no cheaper starter slab for light users, but equally there's no steep jump in rate as consumption rises — unlike most other states on this site.
Each island runs on its own diesel supply
Power on the islands is diesel-generated locally rather than drawn from a mainland grid, so supply reliability and outage patterns can vary between islands even though the tariff is uniform.
Published tariff detail is limited for this UT
Public secondary sources for Lakshadweep's exact domestic tariff structure are thin — treat this flat-rate estimate as indicative and confirm against your own LED bill.
How the LED bill is calculated
Heavily subsidised island power
Lakshadweep’s power is diesel-generated but heavily subsidised, with domestic tariffs among the lowest in India at around ₹1.50/unit on a flat basis.
How the Lakshadweep bill is calculated
Lakshadweep domestic supply is billed monthly. Every unit is charged at a flat ₹1.5/unit. A fixed charge of a flat ₹20/month applies.
Your bill, component by component
Based on the 100-unit example above. Expand each line for what it means and whether you can influence it.
Energy chargeReducible₹150.00+
Priced across telescopic slabs — the more you use, the higher the marginal rate. Shifting usage below your next slab threshold lowers this line directly. This example totals ₹150.00.
Fixed chargeFixed₹20.00+
Charged regardless of how many units you use (flat). The only way to change this line is to change your phase, sanctioned load, or connection type.
What's included in your bill
| Component | What it is | Typical range |
|---|---|---|
| Energy charge | Units × slab rate, telescopic | ₹1.50–₹1.50/unit |
| Fixed charge | Flat, independent of usage | ₹20 |
How to read your meter
Digital meters show a running total in kWh ("units") on an LCD display — write down the number before the decimal point. To find your consumption for a billing period, subtract your previous reading from your current reading; that is exactly what the "Meter reading" mode in the calculator above does for you. Analog meters use a set of dial gauges read left to right — note the number the pointer has just passed on each dial.
Tools that cut your bill
Swap CFL for LED bulbs
Replacing a 15W CFL with a 9W LED bulb, run 6 hrs/day, saves about ₹19.71/year at Lakshadweep's top slab rate (₹1.50/unit) — per bulb.
Tips to reduce your LED bill
- Where practical, keep usage below your next slab threshold — the marginal units above ₹1.50/unit cost the most.
- For high-usage households, rooftop solar can offset your most expensive top-slab units — see the solar section above.
Energy saving tips for Lakshadweep electricity bills
Switch to BLDC ceiling fans
BLDC motors typically use 60–70% less power than a regular induction-motor fan for the same airflow.
Choose BEE 5-star rated appliances
A 5-star AC, refrigerator or washing machine can use 20–30% less electricity than a 1-star model of the same capacity.
Set your AC to 24°C or higher
Each degree below 24°C typically adds 3–5% to an AC's power draw — 24°C with a fan running is usually just as comfortable.
Switch to LED lighting
LED bulbs use roughly 80% less energy than incandescent bulbs for the same brightness, and last far longer.
Unplug appliances on standby
TVs, set-top boxes and chargers left plugged in can draw a small standby load around the clock — unplugging them when not in use adds up over a billing cycle.
Net metering explained
Net metering lets a rooftop solar system export surplus power back to the grid through your existing meter, which runs in reverse. At billing time, your DISCOM credits the exported units against what you drew from the grid — you're billed only for the net difference. Combined with telescopic slabs, this typically offsets your most expensive units first.
