This request was submitted to NEPRA by the Central Power Purchasing Agency, on which NEPRA has scheduled a hearing. According to sources, this request will be heard on April 28, during which it will be decided whether to increase the price of electricity or not.

If the increase is approved, it will be applied to the bills of May, while consumers will be charged an additional amount on the units of electricity used in March.
