The Chhattisgarh State Electricity Regulatory Commission on Tuesday announced a new tariff plan without hiking the rates charged from consumers.
The 'poha' and 'murmura' mills will continue to get a 5 percent rebate on power tariff. Similarly, the rebate of 20 percent energy charges of the agriculture power pumps will continue.
The only change incorporated is that in hospitals, nursing homes and diagnostic centres, electricity charges of 7 percent relaxation has been slashed to 5 percent.
Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel said there has been no increase in electricity rates this year.
