About MEPCO

Multan Electric Power Company

Multan Electric Power Company began as the Multan Power Supply Company in 1922, during British colonial rule, and was for a time a publicly listed company on the Karachi Stock Exchange until it was delisted in 1985. The government nationalised it in 1972, and it was reorganised into its current form, MEPCO, on 14 May 1998.

MEPCO now distributes electricity across thirteen districts of South Punjab — Multan, Bahawalpur, Dera Ghazi Khan, Sahiwal, Muzaffargarh, Rahim Yar Khan, Vehari, Bahawalnagar, Khanewal, Lodhran, Layyah, Rajanpur and Pakpattan — the widest geographic footprint of any Punjab-based distribution company.

Worth knowing

What sets MEPCO apart

  • MEPCO's history reaches back to 1922 as the Multan Power Supply Company, making it one of the two oldest DISCOs alongside LESCO — it was briefly listed on the Karachi Stock Exchange before being delisted in 1985.
  • Its territory of thirteen districts is the largest of any Punjab DISCO, covering a mostly agricultural and semi-urban South Punjab population.
  • MEPCO was nationalised in 1972, decades before the 1998 corporatisation that gave it its current structure.

What to review

Before you pay

  • Current and previous readings should make sense against the meter actually installed at your property, not just your memory of last month's bill.
  • Units belong in comparison with last month and the same month last year, not only with the amount you expected to pay.
  • Arrears should be traced back through your own receipts before you accept them as a new balance you owe.
  • Taxes, the FPA and quarterly adjustments can move the total even when your units look completely normal.
  • Your tariff category should match how the connection is actually used — this matters most for shops, rented units and mixed-use buildings.
  • The same charge shouldn't appear twice in one bill, and a payment you already made shouldn't still be sitting in arrears next month.
Understand the bill

Where the MEPCO bill amount comes from

Fuel Price Adjustment (FPA)

A variable monthly charge NEPRA approves to reflect real fuel costs. It can add to your bill or shave it down, and it moves independently of how much you actually used.

Quarterly Tariff Adjustment (QTA)

Reviewed every few months instead of monthly, this covers capacity, transmission and distribution costs spread across all consumers in the region.

General Sales Tax (GST)

A federal tax applied to your electricity charges. It rises and falls with your bill total rather than sitting at one fixed rupee amount.

Electricity Duty

A provincial tax charged on the units you consume — the more you use, the more duty you pay.

TV Fee (PTV)

A small fixed monthly charge collected for Pakistan Television. It shows up on domestic bills whether or not anyone in the house owns a TV.

Meter Rent / Fixed Charges

A flat monthly amount for the meter installed at your property, charged separately from your actual unit consumption.

FAQ

MEPCO bill questions

How many districts does MEPCO actually cover?

Thirteen: Multan, Bahawalpur, Dera Ghazi Khan, Sahiwal, Muzaffargarh, Rahim Yar Khan, Vehari, Bahawalnagar, Khanewal, Lodhran, Layyah, Rajanpur and Pakpattan — the largest territory of any DISCO in Punjab.

Can I check a MEPCO bill without a reference number?

The reference number is the safest and most direct route for an online lookup. If every old bill is gone, your MEPCO subdivision or official helpline can help you retrieve your account details in person.

Why is my MEPCO bill not showing up?

Nine times out of ten it's a mistyped digit. The rest are usually an outdated reference number, busy official servers close to the due date, or billing data that hasn't updated yet on MEPCO's end.

Is MEPCO older than most other DISCOs?

Yes — it dates back to 1922 as the Multan Power Supply Company, making it, alongside LESCO, one of the two oldest electricity distribution businesses in the region that became Pakistan's DISCO system.

Is this website owned by MEPCO?

No. This is an independent consumer guide, not affiliated with MEPCO, PITC, WAPDA, PEPCO or NEPRA. It links to the official lookup rather than replacing it.

Can I pay the bill on this page?

No. This page helps you open, read and print the bill. Pay through your bank, mobile wallet, ATM, an authorised branch or your electricity company's own customer service center.
