Punjab’s power utility PSPCL on Saturday issued a notification on 300 units of free electricity per month, exempting domestic category consumers, who consume up to 600 units in two months, from payment of any charge, meter rent or taxes.
Consumers belonging to scheduled castes, backward castes, below-poverty-line households and freedom fighters along with their successors (up to grandchildren) will have to submit self-declaration forms for availing free electricity of 300 units per month, according to the notification issued by Punjab State Power Corporation Limited (PSPCL).
The AAP-led government had earlier announced that it would provide 300 units of free electricity to households from July 1.
