Official PITC Portal
Enter your 10–14 digit reference number to instantly view, download, or print your duplicate PESCO electricity bill. No login required.
Always confirm amounts and due dates with your official bill or DISCO channels.
PESCO distributes power in Peshawar, Mardan, Swat, Abbottabad, Kohat, and across much of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
From Peshawar’s commercial cores to Swat’s tourism and horticulture valleys, PESCO balances mountainous feeders, industrial estates, and rural domestic demand. Consumers watch for load-shedding schedules, transformer maintenance notices, and billing-cycle alignment when comparing units consumed. FPA, surcharges, and NEPRA-mandated line items appear alongside meter readings on the duplicate bill; online payment via mobile wallets and bank apps is widely used, with reference numbers sufficient for most rails.
Accessing your PESCO electricity bill online is a streamlined process designed for instant retrieval of your monthly statement. As a distribution company (DISCO) in Pakistan’s power market—upstream of generation and transmission, and downstream of consumers—Peshawar Electric Supply Company issues bills that reflect CPPA/NEPRA tariff rules, meter rent where applicable, and the same PITC duplicate bill you would obtain manually. Enter your reference number (10–14 digits) or, where printed, your consumer number; our form forwards the lookup to the centralized PITC pathway so you see the official duplicate bill, not a recreation.
Think of this page as your shortcut past paper delays: confirm arrears, billing month, issue date, unit price tiers, and due date before you pay through online payment rails—JazzCash, Easypaisa, bank apps, or over-the-counter banking—using the same digits printed on your WAPDA-style bill layout.
Many consumers search for a specific month—for example an pesco March bill, pesco April bill check, or an pesco October bill—before paying or filing expenses. Your printed statement shows the billing month (whether that is February, June, September, or December); the duplicate you open here matches that same cycle from the official portal when you enter your reference number.
You do not need to type “March” or “Oct” into our form: the PITC system returns the current bill tied to your meter. That covers common queries like pesco jan bill, pesco sep bill, pesco nov bill check, or pesco december bill—one reference number is enough for pesco bill check any time of year.
If an older cycle is missing online, keep your last physical copy and confirm the issue date and billing month line; for account-specific history or corrections, contact PESCO through the channels printed on your bill.
Deciphering your printed PESCO web bill can be confusing due to the sheer volume of metrics. To maintain control over your electricity tariff, familiarize yourself with these critical data points prominently displayed on your document:
When you download duplicate PDF output from your browser, you preserve the same line-item structure auditors expect: FPA, GST, TV fee, meter rent, and any financing or rationalization surcharges—ideal for expense claims, landlord reconciliation, or loan documentation.

The base cost of your electricity is heavily subsidized or taxed depending on NEPRA's quarterly reviews. The final payable amount on your PESCO bill often includes a multitude of government-mandated taxes and fluctuating operational levies:
National policy, NEPRA determinations, and exchange-rate effects on imported fuels all feed into the numbers you see on a PESCO printout—often before peak hours usage even enters the story. If your unit consumption is stable but rupees swing, scan FPA first, then verify whether your tariff category or protected status changed.
If your current charges have spiked unexpectedly, it is often due to the FPA. Learn how this is calculated in our article on what FPA means in your electricity bill.
After executing a successful online bill check on CheckBills.net, you no longer need the physical paper to complete a transaction. The digital reference number is sufficient for nearly every financial institution in the country.
You do not need a courier-delivered paper bill for most online payment journeys: the reference number is the key. After you check bill here, screenshot or PDF-archive the page for your records—especially if you are reconciling arrears or proving payment to a landlord.
Follow our exact step-by-step tutorial on paying electricity bills using mobile wallets.
Consistently high PESCO charges can heavily impact your household budget. Because the tariff penalizes higher consumption through escalating slab rates, efficiency is the best form of savings:
Small behavior changes stack: sealing rooms, servicing AC filters, and staggering appliances reduce the odds of crossing into a higher slab rate band—where each extra unit price hurts disproportionately. Pair conservation with policy awareness: subsidies and tariff notifications can change eligibility or fixed charges overnight.

Top of any PESCO bill you already have, under "Reference No." or "Consumer Reference" — 10 to 14 digits. It identifies the meter rather than the person, so it does not change when the bill does, and it is the same number PITC needs to return your duplicate.
No, and not through any tool — the PITC lookup is built around the reference number and simply has no CNIC index behind it. If you cannot find an old bill, the number also appears in PESCO's billing SMS, and the PESCO helpline can read it out once they have verified the account.
Yes. Your reference goes to bill.pitc.com.pk and the document that comes back is shown to you untouched — no line item is recalculated or reformatted. It is the same bill a PESCO customer-service counter would print. Check the figures against your own records before paying, as with any bill.
Usually one of five things. You drew more units — cooling and water heating dominate here. NEPRA set a positive Fuel Price Adjustment for the month. Your consumption crossed into a higher slab, so the extra units cost more than the earlier ones. There are arrears carried forward. Or a Late Payment Surcharge landed. Put this bill beside last month's and compare the units-consumed figure and the FPA line first — between them they explain most jumps. Peshawar's valley summers drive city AC demand while Swat and Dir see a tourist-season load spike in hotels and guesthouses—two different peaks feeding into the same PESCO tariff.
Yes — the reference number is all a payment app needs, and no printout has to change hands. JazzCash, Easypaisa, NayaPay, SadaPay and the mainstream bank apps all accept it. Hold on to the transaction ID until the payment shows up on your next bill.
Bill Payment in the JazzCash app, then PESCO from the company list, then your reference number. Confirm the amount matches the duplicate you just opened before you authorise it. On a basic handset, *786# runs the same sequence over USSD.
This page returns the current cycle for your meter — the billing month is printed on the statement itself. PITC does not expose an archive of past months, so the practical answer is to save the PDF each month while it is available. A new bill generally appears on or shortly after the issue date shown at the top.
Cooling load, mostly. Air conditioning pushes monthly units up sharply, and because the tariff is stepped, those extra units are billed at a higher rate than the ones before them — the bill climbs faster than the consumption does. A positive FPA in the same month compounds it. Inverter units and, for TOU meters, running heavy appliances outside the evening peak are the two changes that measurably help. Across Peshawar, Mardan, Swat this is the sharpest seasonal swing in PESCO's territory.
No. There is no account, and the reference number is passed to PITC to render the bill rather than written to a database here. Recent lookups, if you use that convenience, live in your own browser's storage on your own device. Treat the number as account-sensitive regardless — it is enough on its own to view your bill.
A few seconds in normal conditions; the variable is PITC's own response time rather than anything on this end. Around billing dates the government portal slows noticeably. If a lookup fails, re-check the digits against the printed PESCO bill before retrying — a single transposed figure returns nothing.
Frequently, yes. The duplicate carries the same reference, line items and amount as the original, which is what most banks and landlords are checking. Some institutions still insist on a stamped original, so ask before you rely on it.
It often is, since it comes from the official PITC portal and reflects your PESCO account as the utility holds it. Acceptance is the authority's or landlord's call, not ours. Keeping payment confirmation messages alongside the PDF makes for a stronger record.
Write down both readings as printed, then take it to PESCO — the helpline on the bill, or your subdivision office if it needs a meter inspection. This site shows exactly what PITC returns and has no ability to correct a reading or open a dispute for you.
Start with the PESCO helpline printed on your bill, or your nearest PESCO subdivision office for anything physical. If it stalls, escalate to PMDU or to NEPRA's consumer complaint portal at nepra.org.pk. We are an independent viewer with no access to PESCO account records and cannot lodge anything on your behalf.
Protected means a household averaging 200 units a month or less, billed at NEPRA's subsidised slab rates. Go above that and you are unprotected, paying the full tariff — and the gap between the two is substantial. Your PESCO bill states which applies to you. Eligible households register through the Cross Subsidy Scheme at css.pitc.com.pk.
A fixed monthly charge for the meter hardware itself, where it applies. It sits alongside the energy and tax lines on your PESCO duplicate and does not move with consumption.
Late Payment Surcharge — what gets added once the due date on your PESCO bill passes. That is why the bill quotes two amounts: the one payable in time, and the higher one after. Paying against the first figure means the second never applies.
The alert can fail simply because the mobile number on the account is out of date, or from an ordinary network hiccup. Your reference number retrieves the bill here regardless. Worth calling PESCO to correct the registered number so future cycles reach you.
Yes, provided the PITC server is reachable from where you are. Some overseas ISPs and VPN exit nodes are blocked by Pakistani government portals — if the bill will not load, a different network or turning the VPN off usually settles it.
On a Time-of-Use meter in PESCO territory, the expensive band is generally 7 PM to 11 PM, with everything else billed off-peak. Moving cooling, ironing and laundry outside that window is where the saving is. If your meter is not TOU, the time of day changes nothing on the bill.
Through enc.pitc.com.pk, the Electronic New Connection portal. Choose PESCO, complete the form, upload your documents, settle the demand notice online and follow the tracking number it gives you. Our walkthrough for this DISCO is at /enc-services/pesco.
Yes — Peshawar Electric Supply Company (PESCO) handles NEPRA-licensed net metering applications inside its territory. The sequence is: install the rooftop system, apply to PESCO for a bidirectional meter, then export surplus generation against what you import. Detail is under /guides/solar.
Peshawar Electric Supply Company (PESCO) supplies Peshawar, Mardan, Swat, Dir, Chitral and 5 further districts under its NEPRA-licensed territory.
Three short explainers for the questions that come up once the bill is open.
The PESCO reference number is the only identifier the lookup needs. It runs 10 to 14 digits and sits at the top of every printed bill under “Reference No.” Older bills across some regions show a shorter consumer number or customer ID beside it — where that is printed, it is the same account and works the same way. Search results often call this the PESCO online bill check 14-digit field; 14 digits is simply the longest format in use, not a requirement, so do not pad a shorter number with zeros.
Some things people expect to work, and what actually happens:
If every old bill is gone, PESCO customer service can read the reference back to you once they have verified the account, and it also appears in PESCO billing SMS alerts and in the payment receipts held by JazzCash, Easypaisa or your bank. Because the number belongs to the meter rather than to you, a receipt from several years ago is still valid.
A PESCO duplicate bill is not a copy or a re-creation — it is the same document PITC generated, carrying the same reference, the same line items and the same payable amount as the sheet that was delivered to your door. That is why banks and landlords accept it.
Once the bill is on screen, open your browser’s print dialog — Ctrl+P on a computer, or the share/print item in the menu on a phone. Choosing Save as PDF instead of a printer gives you a file identical to the printed output, which is what you want for a bank branch, a tenancy file, an employer’s expense claim, or simply your own records. Do it each month while the bill is current: PITC does not keep an archive you can come back to.
Peshawar Electric Supply Company bills Peshawar, Mardan, Swat, Dir, Chitral, Charsadda and 4 further districts from one central system, so the lookup is identical wherever you are inside the territory. A PESCO bill check in Peshawar and one in Mardan use the same form, the same reference format and the same source — there is no separate city portal to find, and no city-specific number to enter.
From Peshawar’s commercial cores to Swat’s tourism and horticulture valleys, PESCO balances mountainous feeders, industrial estates, and rural domestic demand. Consumers watch for load-shedding schedules, transformer maintenance notices, and billing-cycle alignment when comparing units consumed. FPA, surcharges, and NEPRA-mandated line items appear alongside meter readings on the duplicate bill; online payment via mobile wallets and bank apps is widely used, with reference numbers sufficient for most rails.
What does vary by area is the subdivision office you would visit in person for a metering fault or a disputed reading. Those are listed in the PESCO office directory, alongside the regional helplines.
This is worth stating plainly, because a lot of pages avoid it: the PITC lookup returns the current billing cycle for your meter. There is no public archive of previous months to page back through, so “PESCO previous bill check online” and “PESCOold bill history” cannot be answered by any third-party tool, including this one.
What you can do instead: save the PDF every month so you build your own history; read the arrears line on the current bill, which reflects anything unpaid from earlier cycles; and for a formal record going further back, request a ledger statement from your PESCO subdivision office, which does hold it.
To check whether a payment landed, look at the current bill rather than the old one. A payment made against the previous cycle shows up as a cleared balance with no arrears carried forward. Until the next cycle is generated, your transaction ID from JazzCash, Easypaisa or your bank is the proof — keep it.
Peshawar Electric Supply Company maintains its own corporate site, and bills for every distribution company are generated centrally by PITC at bill.pitc.com.pk. This page is not either of those. It is an independent front end that sends your reference number to that same PITC system and shows you exactly what comes back, unaltered.
So there is no difference in the bill itself — the amount, the due date and the FPA line are identical whichever route you take. The difference is only in getting there: no navigation through a corporate site, and a form built for a phone screen. Anything that touches your account rather than your bill — a metering fault, a disputed reading, a new connection, a name change — has to go through PESCO directly, and the PESCO complaint routes and helplines are listed here.
Bijli ka bill is simply the everyday Urdu for an electricity bill, and PESCO bijli bill check is the same task described above: enter the reference number from the printed bill and the duplicate opens. Nothing changes but the wording of the search.
اپنے پرانے بل پر لکھا ہوا ۱۰ تا ۱۴ ہندسوں کا ریفرنس نمبر درج کریں اور PESCO کا ڈپلیکیٹ بل فوراً کھل جائے گا۔ کوئی اکاؤنٹ یا فیس درکار نہیں۔
The whole site is available in Urdu if that is easier to read — اردو میں بل چیک کریں.
Entering a reference number on the wrong company’s page returns nothing, which looks like a broken tool but is usually just a mismatch. Your distribution company is fixed by where the meter is, and the name is printed at the top of the bill. If you are in Peshawar or nearby you are almost certainly on the right page; otherwise pick from the full list of companies — and note that Karachi is served by K-Electric, which runs a separate billing system that no PITC-based lookup can reach.
