Power companies seek fuel cost adjustment for Augustfuel cost adjustment for August
Power companies are requesting a Rs1.20 per unit increase in fuel costs for consumers in August. This adjustment is driven by the nearly doubled price of Regasified Liquefied Natural Gas (RLNG), which raised costs to Rs35 per unit compared to Rs16 in June last year.
The potential rate hike matters as it could significantly impact household energy bills and regional economic stability.
