Delhi Electricity Rate

The Delhi government's draft aggregator policy has mandated cab companies, food delivery firms and e-commerce entities to transition to an all-electric fleet by April 1, 2030. It has also proposed a fine of Rs. 50,000 per vehicle if a company fails to make the transition.

Delhi's electricity regulator DERC on Thursday announced new tariff for the national capital without any increase in rates, saying it did not see any "good reasons" to do so.

Announcement of electricity tariff order in Delhi for 2021-22 have been delayed by over three months even as the discoms in the city have raised a demand with power regulator DERC for a hike in the rates in view of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Wednesday said there has been no hike in electricity tariffs in the national capital for the fifth consecutive year after power regulator DERC announced a significant reduction in fixed charges.

Upping the ante against the Aam Admi Party (AAP) government ahead of the Lok Sabha polls, Delhi Congress chief Sheila Dikshit on Monday accused the ruling dispensation of employing the same "cunning" strategy which it did four years back during the Assembly polls by claiming electricity rates have been reduced to half.

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) today claimed credit for the Delhi Electricity Authority Commission's (DERC) move to not hike power rates in the city at the end of its annual tariff determination process.

For the first time since 2011, Delhi Electricity Regulatory Commission (DERC) today announced no hike in power rates in the city at the end of its annual tariff determination process, prompting Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal to ascribe it to "honest politics".

Delhi's power regulator DERC is all set to announce the revised electricity rates for 2015-16 within a fortnight as it has nearly completed the tariff determination exercise including scrutinising the finances of the three private power distribution companies.

Delhi's Power Minister Satyendra Jain on Monday asked the state electricity regulator DERC to review its decision to hike power tariff, saying the move was at variance with rules.

The areas under the jurisdiction of New Delhi Municipal Council (NDMC) will be able to get water and electricity at subsidised rates from today.

A month after taking charge of Delhi, the Aam Aadmi Party or AAP government on Thursday announced a 10 per cent hike in water tariff for households that consume more than 20,000 litres per month. The new rates will be effective from April 1.

Arvind Kejriwal's decision to cut in power tariff in Delhi has inspired Congress MP Sanjay Nirupam to threaten an agitation against the government of his own party in Maharashtra if a similar reduction is not effected in Mumbai.

Scores of BJP workers including its Delhi President Vijay Goel were on Sunday evening detained when they tried to carry out a candle light march towards Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit's residence in Delhi demanding immediate roll back of power tariff hike announced two days back.

Electricity rates in the national capital are likely to go up soon with Union Power Ministry turning down a request by Delhi Government to provide cheaper power to the city, while private discoms are pushing for a steep hike in tariff due to increasing operational cost.

Under increasing attack for hiking the electricity rates, Delhi's power regulator DERC today started a process to adjust the tariff structure to bring down monthly bills of low-end consumers by up to 18 per cent.
