JBVNL बिजली टैरिफ 2026-27 — झारखंड

कौन-सी दर किस पर लागू होती है

DS Urban — areas under a Nagar Nigam, Parishad or Panchayat

₹7.40/unit on a flat ₹100 per connection per month. No slabs — the same rate applies from the first unit to the last.

DS Rural — areas outside municipal limits

₹7.20/unit on a flat ₹75 per connection per month.

ℹ️ Jharkhand does not slab domestic supply at all — one rate applies to every unit, and the only split is rural against urban. The fixed charge is levied per connection rather than per kW, and JSERC directs JBVNL not to inspect premises for load verification on that basis, so sanctioned load does not change a domestic bill. The domestic schedule also catches any connection up to 5 kW of contracted demand that would otherwise be commercial, industrial or institutional. The Government of Jharkhand's free-electricity scheme covers domestic consumption up to 200 units a month. It is a State subsidy applied to the bill, not a tariff rate, and is not modelled here — the figures shown are the JSERC tariff before any subsidy. JSERC abolished meter rent for every category from FY 2026-27.

कौन-सी दर किस पर लागू होती है

CS Urban — commercial in municipal areas

₹7.30/unit on ₹200 per kW per month.

CS Rural — commercial outside municipal areas

₹6.70/unit on ₹120 per kW per month.

CS-HT — commercial at 100 kVA and above

Supply at 6.6 kV and above, billed on kVAh: ₹8.00/kVAh on ₹400/kVA/month. Schools and colleges are excluded from this category.

ℹ️ Commercial reverses the domestic basis: the fixed charge is per kW, so load matters here in a way it does not for a household. Anything up to 5 kW of contracted demand is billed on the domestic schedule instead, which is cheaper on the fixed charge. At 100 kVA and above, supply moves to HT and is billed on kVAh against a ₹400/kVA demand charge, with billing demand taken as the higher of recorded maximum demand or 50% of contract demand.
