How many units does a recharge buy on JKPDD (Jammu Region)?
A rough estimate computed from JKPDD (Jammu Region)'s real domestic slab rates (₹1.5–₹4.5/unit). Remember — your prepaid balance doesn't only pay energy charges: fixed charges, FPPA and electricity duty are deducted daily too, so actual units will be somewhat lower.
| Recharge amount | Approx. units |
|---|---|
| ₹200 | ≈ 44 – 133 units |
| ₹500 | ≈ 111 – 333 units |
| ₹1,000 | ≈ 222 – 666 units |
| ₹2,000 | ≈ 444 – 1333 units |
What happens when the balance runs low or out?
You get low-balance alerts (SMS/app notification) from the meter. If the balance goes negative, supply can be disconnected automatically — though most DISCOMs do not disconnect at night, on Sundays or on holidays (rules vary by DISCOM). Once you recharge, supply is normally restored automatically with no separate reconnection fee. Full details in our guide: prepaid smart meter disconnection rules →
