Late Payments
We will be penalised a 10% fine If we do not pay the FESCO Bill on the due date. So we should pay our bills before or on the due date to avoid the penalty or late fee surcharge. This will help FESCO to cover its expenses.
If we did not pay our bill then it will be added to our next bill. But if we do not pay our 3 consecutive bills, FESCO can disconnect our connection. So to avoid all this we should pay our bills on time.
We can also pay our bills after the due date with a late fee surcharge to avoid the burden of the bill in the next month.
