Dakshin Gujarat Vij Company Ltd.
Service area: South Gujarat (Surat, Bharuch, Narmada, Navsari, Valsad, Tapi, Dang)
DGVCL (Dakshin Gujarat Vij Company Ltd.) distributes electricity across South Gujarat, serving 7 key districts and towns including Surat, Bharuch, Narmada, Navsari and more.
DGVCL scored 97.85 and ranks 6 of 54 state and private distribution utilities.
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.
DGVCL applies the same state-wide 2026-27 tariff schedule as the other Gujarat DISCOMs (set by the state regulator). What differs by company is the service area, billing portal and contact details below.

Estimate your DGVCL bill
Enter your units and sanctioned load for an itemised DGVCL 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.
DGVCL FPPA — latest verified rate and trend
Latest verified DGVCL FPPA (Fuel and Power Purchase Adjustment)
Typical domestic examples for a 2 kW RGP (Residential General Purpose) 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.
