Electricity Bill Calculator Nepal (NEA units bill)
बिजुली बिल क्यालकुलेटर — आधिकारिक दरअनुसार
Calculate your NEA electricity bill in Nepal — enter meter units (kWh) and meter amperes (5A/15A/30A/60A) to get the slab-wise energy charge, service charge and VAT, per the official domestic tariff.
| Slab | Units | Rs/unit | Charge |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1–20 | २० | 0.00 | ० |
| 21–30 | १० | 6.50 | ६५ |
| 31–50 | २० | 8.00 | १६० |
| 51–100 | ५० | 9.50 | ४७५ |
Estimate only, per the official ERC domestic single-phase tariff schedule in force at the page's last-updated date. Real NEA bills may add duty, adjustment or arrears — your official bill is final.
About Electricity Bill
Nepal Electricity Authority (NEA) bills homes with a progressive slab tariff set by the Electricity Regulatory Commission: each block of units is charged at its own rate, a fixed service charge applies based on your meter capacity (5A, 15A, 30A or 60A) and the slab your total lands in, and a concessional 5% VAT applies only to energy consumed above 50 units.
This calculator reproduces that arithmetic and shows the slab-wise breakdown, so you can see exactly where the bill jumps — most families are surprised at how much the 51–100 slab step costs. The 5A 0–20 units band is the lifeline band: energy is free, you pay only the service charge.
How to use — step by step
- Find your monthly units on the NEA bill (or subtract last month's meter reading from this month's).
- Choose your meter capacity — printed on the meter box and the bill (usually 5 Ampere for homes).
- Enter the units (kWh) consumed.
- Read the slab-wise charges, service charge, VAT and the estimated total.
- Compare with your actual bill; differences are usually adjustments, duty or arrears.

Frequently asked questions
QHow is the NEA electricity bill calculated in Nepal?
Total = energy charge (units billed progressively through the slabs) + fixed service charge (set by your meter capacity and total consumption slab) + 5% VAT on the energy charge for consumption above 50 units.
QHow much is a 100-unit bill in Nepal?
On a 5A meter: energy 0–20 free, 21–50 at 6.50/8.00, 51–100 at 9.50 → about Rs 840 energy + Rs 75 service + 5% VAT on the part above 50 units ≈ Rs 939. Use the calculator with your exact meter type for your own figure.
QWhy is my neighbour's per-unit rate different from mine?
The tariff is progressive — higher slabs pay more per unit, and the service charge varies by meter capacity and slab. Two homes can therefore pay very different average rates.
QDo these rates change?
Yes — the Electricity Regulatory Commission revises the schedule occasionally (rates have been cut in recent revisions). This page states the schedule in force at its last-updated date; your official bill is always final.
Data note: Uses the Electricity Regulatory Commission's official domestic single-phase tariff schedule (six consumption slabs, service charge by meter capacity and consumption slab, 5% VAT on energy above 50 units). Actual NEA bills also include adjustments, duty or arrears — treat this as an estimate and check your official bill.
