The Kerala State Electricity Board (KSEB) will allow subsidies on all power bills from April 20 to June 19. The Subsidy will be given on the excess bill during the period, an order issued by the KSEB stated. The amount of subsidy will be stated in the bill.
Consumers will receive the subsidy once the billing software is modified for incorporating the new changes. Until then, they are required to pay only 70 per cent of the bill. Domestic households may pay the electricity bill in 5 installments.
