Notes:

(A) The consumer's demand meter is not in kilovolt amperes but in kilowatts. The kilowatts of the consumers will be divided by 0.5 power factor and converted to kilovolt amperes. Such consumers must connect the capacitor within the period specified by the Nepal Electricity Authority. In order to calculate the demand charge of a consumer without capacitor connection within the specified period, KW will be divided by 0.5 instead of 0.5 and converted to kilovolt amperes.

(B) To continue the previous system of giving a 10% discount on the total bill amount in the case of the industrial sector specified by the government as per the policy directives of the Government of Nepal in the past.

(C) Government hospitals and health posts (excluding residential houses) will give a 20 percent discount on the total bill amount if the bill is paid within 21 days.

(D) No change has been made in other tariffs and service charges for all categories of consumers.

(E) 11 K.V. And above consumers are essentially T.O.D. To arrange for meter connection.
