BENGALURU: As part of an annual exercise, all energy supply companies (Escoms) in the state have proposed to the Karnataka Electricity Regulatory Commission (KERC) to increase power tariff.
Interestingly, the Bangalore Electricity Supply Company (Bescom) has sought a hike of 49 paise per unit for domestic consumers (irrespective of category), which is the lowest among all Escoms. It is also much less than what it had proposed last year at Rs 1.36.
