Yeah, the electricity tariff table given above is pretty accurate. Hence for an average domestic household, the average tariff is Rs. 2.80 per unit of electricity. The fixed charges of Rs. 20 for a single-phase connection or Rs. 60 for a three-phase connection have to be paid only by the consumers who use more than 40 units of electricity in a month. If you stay within the first slab of energy usage, then you just have to pay for your consumption and will be exempted from paying the minimum fixed charge

Other than the tariff, there is a fixed charge of Rs. 20 payable by users of single phase and Rs. 60 payable by users of three phase connections.
The electricity slabs and their effective tariff rates are as follows:
0-40 units – Rs. 1.50/unit
41-80 units – Rs. 1.90/unit
81-120 units – Rs. 2.20/unit
121-150 units – Rs. 2.50/unit
151-200 units – Rs. 3.10/unit
201-300 units – Rs. 3.50/unit
301-500 units – Rs. 4.60/unit
Above 501 units – Rs. 6.50/unit
Consumers having electricity consumption higher than 500 units will be moved to a higher tariff rate where they have to pay more for electricity usage between the peak hours of 6pm to 10pm

Hey, electricity in Kochi is charged as per units consumed by you. So you will need a metered electricity connection sanctioned by the Kerala State Electricity Board (KSEB). There are different slabs of electricity usage and each slab has a different rate of electricity.
Generally, the regular domestic houses use up 40-80 units of power in a month. If your power usage falls in that bracket then you will be charged Rs. 1.90 for every unit of power use. So if you use up 60 units of power, your electricity bill will be Rs 114.
