Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)


What is the cost of a room in Delhi?

Costs vary a lot by neighbourhood and the type of place you pick. On average you’ll find monthly rents from around ₹5,000 in budget areas to ₹20,000 or more in upscale localities. Proximity to transport, safety, and extra amenities (like a furnished room or attached bathroom) push the price up.

Is 200 units free in Delhi?

Yes — under the current Delhi tariff, domestic users get the first 200 units free each month. It’s part of a state subsidy meant to ease bills for lower-income households. Once you go past 200 units, normal slab charges kick in.

What is the cost of one unit of electricity in Delhi?

The per-unit price changes with how much you use. For example, rates start at about ₹3 per unit for up to 200 units and rise for higher consumption slabs. That tiered setup is meant to reward low users and discourage waste.

What is the cost of a smart meter unit in Delhi?

Smart meters are usually supplied by the local DISCOMs either free or at subsidised cost, depending on policy. Installation charges do vary, but they’re often recovered through your bill. Smart meters help you monitor use more closely and spot ways to save.

Why is Delhi’s electricity bill so high?

Several things add up: higher overall consumption, stepping into the more expensive slabs after subsidies, fixed monthly charges, and state taxes on electricity. Seasonal spikes in demand (like heavy cooling in summer) and how subsidies are applied can also make a bill look larger.
