West Bengal State Electricity Distribution Company Ltd.
Service area: All of West Bengal outside the CESC and DPL licence areas
WBSEDCL scored 65.39 and ranks 22 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.
Up to 75 units a quarter (25 a month); fully covered by the State subsidy
ℹ️ WBSEDCL bills quarterly; the slabs above are the published quarterly bands (102 / 78 / 120 / 300 / 300 / above 900 kWh) expressed as monthly equivalents. Lifeline consumers under the Hasir Alo scheme pay nothing after the State subsidy. Bills also carry a Monthly Variable Cost Adjustment (MVCA), which WBERC revises month to month and which is not modelled here.

WBSEDCL FPPA — latest verified rate and trend
Latest verified WBSEDCL FPPA (Fuel and Power Purchase Adjustment)
Typical domestic examples for a 2 kW Rate A (DM) — 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.
