May is the first real summer bill for most of the country. Air conditioners that ran a few hours a day in April are now running most of the afternoon and evening, and the unit count reflects it.

It works the same way regardless of which company bills you — MEPCO, LESCO, FESCO, IESCO, PESCO, GEPCO, HESCO, SEPCO, QESCO, TESCO, and HAZECO all run their duplicate-bill lookup through the same PITC-backed system. Type the 10 to 14 digit reference number printed on your last bill into the box on this page and your May statement opens for viewing, downloading, or printing.

No account, no login, no charge.

How the May billing cycle works

How the May billing cycle works

Your DISCO's own reading calendar decides when a May bill is generated, and that date — printed on the bill — sets both the issue date and the due date.

The one thing that's consistent across every subdivision: once the bill exists in the PITC system, it's available for duplicate lookup here within 24 to 48 hours.

Early Summer season impact on your May bill

Early Summer season impact on your May bill

By May, sustained heat across Punjab, Sindh, and Balochistan pushes AC and cooler use into daily habit rather than occasional relief, and this is usually the month households first notice they've crossed into a higher slab bracket for the year.

As a rule of thumb across the year: summer months (May through August) can double or triple a household's baseline consumption once AC use is factored in, winter months (November through February) push usage up through heaters and geysers, and spring and autumn (March-April, September-October) sit closest to the year's floor.

Knowing where May falls in that pattern is the fastest way to tell whether a bill's size is expected or worth a closer look.

You don't need the physical bill in hand, just the reference number printed on it.

Enter it here along with your DISCO — MEPCO, LESCO, FESCO, and the rest all work the same way — and the May duplicate loads directly from PITC with the full breakdown: amount, units, due date, arrears, taxes.

May electricity tariff and slab rates

May electricity tariff and slab rates

NEPRA sets a progressive slab structure for domestic consumers, and it applies to your May bill exactly as it does year-round: the first 100 units (the protected category) carry the cheapest per-unit rate, and each bracket above it — 101-200, 201-300, 301-700, and 700+ — costs more per unit than the one before. Cross a slab boundary and the bracket you land in, not just the extra units, drives the increase.

Commercial, industrial, and agricultural connections run on separate schedules from residential. Because NEPRA revises these rates quarterly, the safest way to confirm which schedule applied to your May bill is the issue date printed on it, not the month name alone.

FPA and surcharges in your May bill

FPA and surcharges in your May bill

If your unit count stayed flat but the rupee amount didn't, the Fuel Price Adjustment is the usual explanation. It tracks the real cost of the fuel used to generate power that month, so it moves with global oil, gas, and LNG prices rather than with anything you did differently — and it can land as an extra charge or, occasionally, a credit.

Layered on top of FPA and the base energy charge are a handful of standing surcharges: Financing Cost (covers sector debt servicing), a flat TV fee for residential connections, General Sales Tax on total consumption, and Tariff Rationalization. Together these typically add 15 to 30 percent to the base energy charge, which is why the bill total often moves more than the unit count alone would suggest.

How to pay your May electricity bill

Paying doesn't require the printed bill in hand — the reference number is enough for JazzCash, Easypaisa, NayaPay, or SadaPay, and for the mobile apps of most major banks (HBL, UBL, Allied Bank, Meezan, MCB), usually without a service fee. 1Link ATMs work too.

Prefer paying in person? Bank counters, Pakistan Post, and franchise outlets still take the physical bill. Miss the due date printed on it, though, and a Late Payment Surcharge of roughly 5-10 percent gets added on top.

Tips to reduce your May electricity bill

Tips to reduce your May electricity bill

May is late to be shopping for a new AC and early enough that a service call is still easy to book — a poorly maintained unit with dirty coils can use 20-30% more electricity for the same cooling, so a service visit now often pays for itself within the month.

Beyond what's specific to May, the one change that helps in every season is net metering: a rooftop solar system offsets daytime consumption year-round and can export surplus units back to the grid during peak sun hours, which is worth looking into regardless of which month you're reading this on.

Common May bill issues and how to resolve them

Common May bill issues and how to resolve them

Bill isn't showing up yet — if it's been fewer than 24-48 hours since the expected issue date, PITC probably hasn't received it from the DISCO yet; try again the next day rather than assuming something's broken.

Amount looks too high — the first check is always the previous month's unit count, not the rupee total. A sudden jump usually traces to a faulty meter, an estimated (not actual) reading, or an appliance that got left running; a call to your DISCO subdivision office gets a meter check scheduled.

Reference number won't work — it has to be exactly 10 to 14 digits, no letters, no spaces. Older meters occasionally get reassigned a new reference number during system upgrades, in which case your local DISCO office can confirm the current one.

Due date already passed — a Late Payment Surcharge applies from that point on and keeps accruing, so pay as soon as you can rather than waiting; letting it run risks disconnection.

Arrears showing on the bill — these are unpaid balances carried forward from earlier cycles rather than a new charge. Clearing them stops them compounding and avoids disconnection action later.

May Bill Check - Frequently Asked Questions

How soon after the issue date does my May bill show up here?

Within 1-3 days on the PITC portal, once your DISCO has finalized it — it isn't instant, and there's no way to speed that part up from this side.

I don't have a reference number handy — can I still check?

Not through PITC's system, no. You'll need it from a previous printed bill, an SMS alert from your DISCO, or by calling your subdivision office.

Is what loads here the same as the original paper bill?

Yes — same line items, amount, due date, and taxes, pulled from the same record.

Why is my May bill higher than April's?

Almost always one of three things: a seasonal usage shift, an FPA adjustment, or crossing into a higher slab bracket.

Will a bank accept this duplicate for loan paperwork?

Many do, since it's the same official PITC record, but confirm with the specific bank first rather than assuming.

Does this site keep a copy of my bill or reference number?

No — the reference number is passed to PITC to render your bill in the browser, and nothing is stored on our end.

Comparing bills across the year is often the quickest way to spot whether a change is seasonal or something worth a closer look. Jump to any other month below, or use the home bill checker directly.

Each distribution company has its own landing page with office details, tariff notes, and a bill lookup specific to that DISCO.
