GEPCO Coverage Area — Districts Served
GEPCO (Gujranwala Electric Power Company) serves the Gujranwala, Sialkot, Gujrat, Hafizabad, Narowal, and Mandi Bahauddin districts of Punjab. Gujranwala is one of Pakistan’s major industrial cities, and GEPCO serves a large manufacturing and textile sector alongside residential consumers.
If your address is in Gujranwala, Sialkot, Gujrat, Wazirabad, Daska, Hafizabad, or Narowal, your electricity DISCO is GEPCO and gepco.com.pk is your correct bill checking portal. Consumers in Lahore (LESCO), Faisalabad (FESCO), and Rawalpindi/Islamabad (IESCO) sometimes misidentify GEPCO as their DISCO — check the header of your physical bill to confirm your DISCO before using any portal.
How to Find Your GEPCO Consumer Number
The GEPCO consumer number is a 14-digit number printed prominently on your electricity bill, typically at the top right corner. It is also printed on your meter card if you have one. If you have lost your bill and do not have your consumer number, you can retrieve it by: calling GEPCO helpline at 118 with your CNIC number; or visiting your local GEPCO sub-division office with your CNIC and the address of your electricity connection.
Understanding Your GEPCO Bill — Components Explained
A GEPCO electricity bill contains multiple line items that many consumers find confusing. The main components are: Energy Charges (units consumed multiplied by the applicable NEPRA tariff rate based on your consumption slab); Fixed Charges (a monthly base charge payable regardless of consumption); TV Fee (PKR 35/month collected by GEPCO on behalf of Pakistan Television Corporation); GST (17% of energy charges and fixed charges); and Fuel Price Adjustment (FPA) which is a monthly variable charge based on the actual cost of electricity generation that month, as determined by NEPRA. The FPA can be positive (adding to your bill) or negative (reducing your bill) depending on fuel costs.
GEPCO Theft Complaint and Meter Tampering
GEPCO, like all Pakistani DISCOs, conducts periodic enforcement operations against electricity theft and meter tampering. If you receive an estimated bill or a bill significantly higher than usual after years of stable consumption, it may indicate your meter is being checked for tampering. Report any suspected meter manipulation by your neighbours or others to GEPCO helpline 118 or via the wapda.gov.pk complaint portal. GEPCO anti-theft teams investigate complaints and GEPCO regulations require complaints to be actioned within 7 working days.

GEPCO Tariff and Bill Components
GEPCO applies the same NEPRA residential tariff structure as all other Pakistani DISCOs. The energy charge per unit follows the slab system: lifeline rate of PKR 7.74/unit for the first 100 units, rising through multiple slabs to PKR 31.07/unit for above 700 units of monthly consumption. The total GEPCO bill includes energy charges, fixed monthly charge, GST (17%), TV fee (PKR 35), and the monthly Fuel Price Adjustment (FPA) set by NEPRA. When your GEPCO bill seems unusually high despite normal usage, the FPA is often the cause — NEPRA-approved FPA adjustments are applied uniformly across all DISCOs including GEPCO.
GEPCO Duplicate Bill Download
If you did not receive your GEPCO paper bill or it was lost before payment, you can download a duplicate bill from gepco.com.pk. Go to the Bill Enquiry section, enter your 14-digit consumer number, and click Download Bill or Print Bill. The downloaded PDF is a valid bill copy accepted by all Pakistani banks and payment channels. JazzCash and Easypaisa do not require a physical bill — just the consumer number — but having the duplicate bill is useful for confirming the due date and amount before payment.
GEPCO New Connection Application Process
Applying for a new GEPCO electricity connection in Gujranwala, Sialkot, Gujrat, or any other GEPCO-served district requires: property ownership documents or tenancy agreement, CNIC of the applicant, a site plan showing the location of the meter, and payment of a connection fee (which varies by connection type — residential single-phase vs three-phase vs commercial). Submit the application at your nearest GEPCO sub-division office. GEPCO must process new connection applications within 30 days under NEPRA service quality standards. If your connection is delayed beyond 30 days, you can file a complaint with NEPRA at 0800-63777.
GEPCO Meter Reading — How to Read Your Own Meter
Understanding how to read your GEPCO electricity meter helps you verify your monthly bill is accurate before the due date. A standard GEPCO electromechanical meter shows a 5-digit number on a rotating dial. Note the reading on the current month and compare with last month reading printed on your bill (Previous Reading field). The difference is your units consumed. If your meter reading is higher than the Current Reading on your bill, you may have been undercharged (GEPCO will adjust in the next bill). If it is lower, you may have been overcharged and can file a billing complaint.
Digital (smart) meters in GEPCO service areas display the reading on an LCD screen. Press the display button to cycle through readings — the main consumption figure is typically labelled kWh. Take a photo of your meter reading on the same date each month to maintain your own consumption records as a reference for billing disputes.
