How to read your IESCO bill — every line explained
IESCO, Islamabad Electric Supply Company, is the DISCO that bills electricity consumers in Islamabad, Rawalpindi, Attock, Chakwal and other districts of Federal / Punjab. It is a subsidiary of WAPDA, regulated by NEPRA, and its monthly bills are generated through the PITC platform at bill.pitc.com.pk.
Top of the bill — who, where, when
The top of your IESCO bill shows the consumer name, mailing address, sub-division office, and the tariff code (A-1, A-1a, A-2, B-1, D-1, D-2) that decides which slab ladder applies. Next to the address, the reference number is a 14-digit identifier that every payment channel uses to look up the bill.
Reading and consumption block
Look for Previous Reading, Current Reading, and Units Consumed. The reading date is the day the meter reader visited; if you suspect a wrong reading, you can compare it to what your own meter shows today. Unit counts drive every downstream line.
Charges breakdown
Energy charge is units × tariff rate for each slab; FPA is the monthly fuel adjustment approved by NEPRA; Electricity Duty and TRS (Tariff Rationalization Surcharge) add to the base; GST is applied on top; and the PTV fee is a fixed monthly levy. See our tariff cluster for each line in depth.
Payable amount and due date
The Payable within due date is what you owe on or before the printed date; the Payable after due date includes a late-payment surcharge. Pay before the date using any channel on our ways-to-pay hub.
Arrears, adjustments, and installments
Arrears are unpaid amounts from prior months. An Adjustment is a correction applied by IESCO (refund for wrong reading, credit for solar net metering, etc.). An Instalment line means a previous settlement is being billed over multiple months.
Barcode and payment stamp area
The barcode encodes the reference number plus payable amount — this is what a bank/ATM scanner reads. The stamp area at the bottom is where a bank teller stamps the consumer copy after a cash payment.
