About Bijli Guide
Bijli Guide is built for Indian households that want a simple answer to a common problem: why is the electricity bill high, and what can be done about it? The site explains electricity units, tariff slabs, appliance running costs, solar savings, and everyday bill-saving decisions in plain language.
Why This Website Exists
Electricity bills are often confusing because the final amount is not based on unit rate alone. A bill may include slab rates, fixed charges, electricity duty, fuel adjustment charges, meter rent, subsidies, and arrears. Bijli Guide breaks these parts into practical guides and calculators so readers can understand the bill before making a buying or usage decision.
The goal is not to replace an official DISCOM bill. The goal is to help you estimate, compare, and ask better questions before you buy an AC, run a geyser daily, switch to a BLDC fan, charge an EV, or plan rooftop solar.
What You Can Use Bijli Guide For
- Estimating a monthly electricity bill from units, unit rate, fixed charge, and duty.
- Calculating the running cost of appliances such as ACs, fans, geysers, refrigerators, pumps, lights, and kitchen appliances.
- Understanding state-wise electricity unit costs and tariff slab differences.
- Comparing older appliances with efficient models before spending money.
- Learning how solar, EV charging, and smart meters can affect future bills.

How We Try To Keep Content Useful
Every guide is written for a real use case: checking a bill, choosing an appliance, comparing tariffs, or planning a home energy upgrade. We prefer examples, formulas, assumptions, and tables over vague advice. When a number can vary by state, appliance model, or usage pattern, the guide should say that clearly.
If you find an outdated tariff, unclear explanation, broken link, or calculation issue, please contact us so it can be reviewed.
