|May 21, 2025
ELECTRICITY Minister SS Sivasankar on Tuesday issued a release stating that Chief Minister MK Stalin has advised to ensure that there is no increase in power tariff to household consumers when TNERC issues orders regarding the power tariff increase.
He further added the CM has asked for the continuation of all free and subsidy schemes that are in place at the moment. This would mean that the state government would absorb the tariff hike for household consumers, which is likely to increase the tariff subsidy provided by the state government to the financially ailing Tamil Nadu Power Distribution Corporation Limited (TNPDCL). The tariff subsidy provided in 2024-25 to TNPDCL was 15,772.21 crore.
