HYDERABAD: Soon, electricity consumers and commuters of TSRTC may have to pay more as the state government is expected to clear the proposals on enhancing power charges and RTC bus fares in the next cabinet meeting. Chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao, who held a review meeting on the RTC and electricity department, asked the officials to come up with proposals on enhancement of charges.
The government has not revised the electricity tariff in the last seven years after formation of the state. The power distribution companies generally submit their aggregate revenue requirement (ARR) to the Telangana State Electricity Regulatory Commission (TSERC) in November every year and any hike will come into effect from the next financial year.
