DISCO rates change often. Update any rate below; your changes are remembered on this device.
This is an estimate. The protected consumer rule is under review — confirm your category and current rates on your printed electricity bill.
How to use
- Enter your monthly units for the last 6 billing months, oldest first.
- Enter your current month units for the saving comparison.
- Your protected or unprotected verdict and estimated monthly saving appear instantly.
Note: 200 units or less for 6 consecutive months keeps you protected; one month above 200 moves you to non-protected. Saving = bill at non-protected rates minus bill at protected rates for your current month units.
Tips
- Keep monthly usage at or below 200 units — a single high month can cost you the protected category for a long time.
- Shift heavy loads like the AC and water pump to off-peak hours to stay under the limit.
- Compare your estimate with the printed bill; if rates differ, update the rate editor.
