APSPDCL at a glance
Distribution company
Southern Power Distribution Company of Andhra Pradesh Ltd.
APSPDCL scored 54.24 and ranks 27 of 54 state and private distribution utilities — up a grade from the 13th report.
The rating scores the utility’s financial and operational performance — AT&C losses, billing and collection efficiency, the gap between what supply costs and what it earns, and the regulatory support the utility gets. It is not a measure of supply reliability or customer service, and it does not affect your tariff.
APSPDCL applies the same state-wide 2026-27 tariff schedule as the other Andhra Pradesh DISCOMs (set by the state regulator). What differs by company is the service area, billing portal and contact details below.

ℹ️ Andhra Pradesh domestic supply is telescopic — the order labels the category "Domestic (Telescopic)" — so 200 units bills 30 at ₹1.90, 45 at ₹3.00, 50 at ₹4.50 and 75 at ₹6.00, not all 200 at the top rate. The fixed charge is a flat ₹10/kW/month whatever the slab. The step from ₹6.00 to ₹8.75 at 226 units is the sharpest in the schedule, so a household sitting just under 225 units pays heavily for the next unit. APERC's schedule is the tariff alone; electricity duty and any other State levies are notified separately and are charged on your bill in addition to the figures here.

Who each rate applies to
II-A(i) — Commercial
Shops, offices and general commercial supply. Fixed charge ₹75/kW/month, billed on kWh (or kVAh where a kVAh meter is installed).
II-A(ii) — Advertising hoardings
A single rate on all units, on a heavier ₹100/kW/month fixed charge.
II-A(iii) — Function halls / auditoriums
Flat ₹12.25/unit on all units, with no fixed charge at LT.
II-C — Electric vehicle charging stations
Flat ₹6.70/unit with no fixed charge — the cheapest rate in the commercial schedule, and well under the ₹9–10 a shop pays at the same consumption.
ℹ️ The commercial ladder is telescopic across five slabs from ₹5.40 to ₹10.15, on a ₹75/kW/month fixed charge. APERC sets separate rates for advertising hoardings, function halls, startup power, green power and EV charging; the ones modelled here are selectable above. Commercial supply is billed on kVAh wherever a kVAh meter is installed, so a poor power factor raises the units you are charged for. APERC's schedule is the tariff alone; electricity duty and any other State levies are notified separately and are charged on your bill in addition to the figures here.

Estimate your APSPDCL bill
Enter your units and sanctioned load for an itemised APSPDCL estimate. The result breaks
the bill into energy charge, fixed or demand charge, FPPA, duty,
and late-payment surcharge where applicable.
Domestic supply. The bracket in each option is the eligibility
limit — pick the one your connection actually falls under, because the rates differ
sharply between them. For commercial supply, time-of-day, solar export or arrears, the
full calculator carries every field.
APSPDCL FPPA — latest verified rate and trend
Latest verified APSPDCL FPPA (Fuel and Power Purchase Adjustment)
Typical domestic examples for a 2 kW LT-I (Domestic) connection, computed with the same engine as the calculator. Use them as a quick sanity check; your actual bill changes with sub-category, arrears, FPPA, duty and billing-period length.
The slab-wise price of the units consumed during the billing period. In telescopic slabs, each band is billed at its own rate.
Fixed charge
A monthly charge linked to sanctioned load, connected load, billing demand or consumer category. It applies even when usage is low.
Electricity duty
A statutory government levy. Depending on the state, it may apply on energy charges, fixed charges, or selected bill components.
FPPA (Fuel and Power Purchase Adjustment)
Fuel and power-purchase adjustment. It changes more often than the base tariff and may appear as a charge or a credit.
Arrears
Unpaid balance, corrections, security-deposit adjustments or previous-cycle amounts carried into the current bill.
LPSC
Late Payment Surcharge on overdue amounts. Check the due date and pay through the official DISCOM channel to avoid it.
