DHBVN Electricity Bill in Gurgaon: Tariff Slabs and How to Pay Online 2026

DHBVN's domestic tariff for Gurgaon in 2026 runs from Rs 2.00 per unit for the first 50 units up to Rs 7.10 per unit beyond 800 units, with a monthly fixed charge of roughly Rs 110 for a standard 5 kW home connection. A regular 2 BHK family of four pays around Rs 2,500 to Rs 4,500 a month depending on AC usage, and the entire bill can be cleared online through the DHBVN portal, UPI or BBPS in under two minutes.

The slabs are telescopic, which means each unit range is charged at its own rate rather than the whole bill falling into one bracket. For domestic consumers in Gurgaon, 0 to 50 units are billed at about Rs 2.00, 51 to 150 units at roughly Rs 2.50, 151 to 250 units at Rs 5.25, 251 to 500 units at Rs 6.30, 501 to 800 units at Rs 7.10, and anything above 800 units at Rs 7.10 with no further step. HERC revises these rates with each tariff order, so always cross-check the exact figures on your latest bill.

A DHBVN bill has three main heads. The fixed charge is a monthly service charge tied to your sanctioned load, usually Rs 20 to Rs 25 per kW. Energy charges are the units you consumed multiplied by the slab rates above. On top of that sits the Fuel Surcharge Adjustment or FSA, a quarterly pass-through that moves with fuel costs and typically adds 10 to 40 paise per unit. Electricity duty of 5 to 10 percent and a small municipal tax round out the total you see at the bottom of the page.

Haryana has started rolling out Time of Day tariffs for larger consumers and smart-meter households. For eligible connections, units consumed during peak hours, broadly 6 pm to 10 pm and 6 am to 9 am, carry a 20 percent surcharge, while off-peak units from 10 pm to 6 am get a 20 percent rebate. For most 2 and 3 BHK apartments still on legacy meters the standard slab tariff applies, but if you have been issued a smart meter it is worth running your AC pre-cool, washing machine and dishwasher between 10 pm and 6 am to shave 10 to 15 percent off a summer bill.

Paying online is straightforward. Open epayment.dhbvn.org.in or the DHBVN mobile app, enter your 10-digit Account Number printed on the top-right of any past bill, pick the latest cycle, and pay via UPI, net banking, debit card or credit card. UPI is the fastest route and carries zero charges. BBPS through Google Pay, PhonePe, Paytm or Amazon Pay works just as well and often throws in a small cashback. A successful payment reflects on the portal within 24 hours and a receipt is auto-emailed to your registered address.

To shift to e-bill, fill the e-bill opt-in form inside the portal, which stops the paper copy and routes every bill to your inbox. For auto-pay, set up a UPI AutoPay mandate inside Google Pay or PhonePe against DHBVN as a biller, choose a monthly debit cap comfortably above your typical bill, and the system settles each cycle on its own. Register your mobile number for SMS alerts the moment the bill generates, so you can catch any spike before auto-pay fires.

If a bill looks wrong, log a complaint in writing within 15 days of receipt. The quickest route is the Grievance tab on the DHBVN portal or the Mera Bijli Mera Adhikaar app, which generates a ticket number and triggers a mandatory meter check. For disputed amounts, pay the undisputed portion to keep the connection live, and the balance can be adjusted or refunded once the fault is confirmed. If the meter runs visibly fast, request an independent lab test, which is usually resolved in 30 to 45 days.

A new domestic connection in Gurgaon is applied for through the Saral Haryana portal with ownership proof or a registered rent agreement, Aadhaar, two passport photos, and the latest electricity bill of the previous owner for a load-transfer case. The security deposit works out to roughly Rs 400 to Rs 600 per kW of sanctioned load, so a 5 kW connection costs about Rs 2,500 to Rs 3,000 refundable. DHBVN's urban service standard is 15 working days from application to meter installation, and in practice most Gurgaon connections are energised within three weeks if the site is ready.

As a quick benchmark, a 2 BHK of around 1,100 sq ft with regular AC use through summer typically runs Rs 2,500 to Rs 4,500 a month. A 3 BHK of 1,800 to 2,200 sq ft lands at Rs 4,000 to Rs 8,000, and a 4 BHK or large builder floor between 3,000 and 4,500 sq ft can see Rs 8,000 to Rs 18,000 in peak months. Winter bills drop by 40 to 60 percent as the AC load disappears. Solar rooftop net-metering, allowed up to the sanctioned load, is the single most effective way to flatten these numbers for a long-term owner.
