WITH THE exception of domestic consumers with monthly consumption of over 400 units of electricity per month and above, household consumers in other categories pay comparatively cheaper power bills in Kerala, a study of the electricity tariff of various states conducted by Kerala State Electricity Regulatory Commission has shown.

According to government sources, the lower power tariff for industries has also contributed to its transformation into an industry-friendly state.

In the agriculture sector, Kerala offered the fourth best tariff in the country at ₹2.79 per unit, also the best among all south Indian states. For electricity provided to Railways, the state was placed in the ninth position at ₹7.16 per unit. However, the state's tariff for medium commercial establishments stood at ₹10.68 per unit, which was quite higher in comparison to other states.
