TESCO lookup
TESCO serves consumers in merged tribal districts and former FATA areas under a specialized distribution setup.
TESCO consumers often cross-check reference numbers against SMS alerts and sub-division records while navigating security and infrastructure transitions. Bills include the same statutory surcharges and fuel adjustments as other DISCOs, with slab and category lines dictating unit price. Online duplicate retrieval through PITC-backed flows supports JazzCash, Easypaisa, and banking channels where mobile coverage allows—reducing dependence on slow paper delivery in remote valleys.
Tribal Electric Supply Companysits in the middle of Pakistan's power chain: generation and transmission happen upstream of it, consumers sit downstream, and the company's job is to meter, bill and collect. That is why a TESCO electricity bill carries CPPA and NEPRA tariff decisions you had no part in — plus meter rent where your connection attracts it. What this page does is narrow: it takes your reference number (10 to 14 digits, or the consumer number where the bill prints one), asks PITC for the corresponding statement, and shows you what comes back. It is the official duplicate, not a reconstruction.
The practical value is the wait it removes. Before paying — through JazzCash, Easypaisa, a bank app or a counter — you can read the billing month, the issue date, the due date, which slab your units landed in, and whether any arrears are riding along. Every one of those payment channels wants the same digits printed on the sheet, so nothing else needs to change hands.
Many consumers search for a specific month—for example an tesco March bill, tesco April bill check, or an tesco 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 tesco jan bill, tesco sep bill, tesco nov bill check, or tesco december bill—one reference number is enough for tesco 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 TESCO through the channels printed on your bill.
A TESCO sheet fits an unreasonable number of figures onto one page, which is why most people only ever read the total. These are the eight that actually tell you something:
Saving the duplicate as a PDF keeps all of that intact — FPA, GST, the TV fee, meter rent, and whichever financing or rationalisation surcharges applied that month. That level of line-item detail is precisely what an expense claim, a landlord reconciliation or a loan file needs, and precisely what a photograph of the total does not give you.
For a line-by-line walk through a full statement, see our guide to understanding your electricity bill in Pakistan.
Only part of what you pay is electricity. The rest is a stack of levies and adjustments set well above your distribution company's head, revised on NEPRA's quarterly cycle. On a TESCO bill they appear roughly like this:
Between national policy, NEPRA determinations and the exchange rate against imported fuel, plenty can move on a TESCO bill before your own habits enter the picture at all. So when the units look normal and the total does not, read the FPA line first, then check whether your tariff category or protected status changed this cycle. Those two together explain the large majority of unexplained jumps.
For how the adjustment is actually worked out, read what FPA means in your electricity bill.
Once the bill is on screen, the paper copy stops mattering. Practically every payment channel in Pakistan is keyed on the same reference number you just used to open it.
Whichever route you take, keep something: the PDF, a screenshot, or the transaction ID the app returns. It costs nothing at the time and settles the argument later — particularly when you are reconciling arrears or proving to a landlord that a month was paid.
There is a screen-by-screen walkthrough in paying electricity bills using mobile wallets.
Because the tariff steps upward, the last units of a heavy month cost far more than the first ones. That is the whole economics of saving on a TESCO bill: staying below a boundary is worth more than trimming a little everywhere.
The unglamorous measures compound: sealing a room properly, cleaning air-conditioner filters, not running three heavy appliances at once. Each one lowers the chance of crossing into the next slab, which is where the real damage happens. And keep half an eye on policy — a subsidy notification or a tariff revision can change your fixed charges and your protected status without any warning from your own consumption.

Along the top of any TESCO bill you still have, in the box marked "Reference No." or "Consumer Reference" — between 10 and 14 digits. It belongs to the meter rather than to you or to one statement, so it stays the same month after month, and it is the only key PITC accepts when returning your duplicate.
No — and no other tool can either, because PITC indexes bills by reference number and holds no CNIC lookup at all. If every old bill is gone, the number is also printed in TESCO's billing SMS, and the TESCO helpline will read it back to you once they have verified the account.
They are. Your reference is sent to bill.pitc.com.pk and whatever comes back is displayed as-is — no figure is recalculated, no line is rewritten. It is the same document a TESCO service counter would hand you. As with any bill, read the amounts against your own records before paying.
In practice it is one of five causes. Consumption went up, and in this region cooling and water heating dominate that. NEPRA applied a positive Fuel Price Adjustment. The extra units pushed you into a dearer slab, so they cost more than the ones before them. Something is carried forward as arrears. Or a Late Payment Surcharge has been added. Lay this bill next to last month's and compare the units figure and the FPA line first — between them they account for most sudden jumps. The merged tribal districts' grid is still being extended and metered in stages, so billing cycles and reference-number continuity can be less predictable here than in longer-established DISCO territories.
Yes, and no paper needs to change hands — the reference number is the only thing a payment app asks for. JazzCash, Easypaisa, NayaPay, SadaPay and the mainstream banking apps all take it. Keep the transaction ID until you see the payment reflected on a later bill.
Open Bill Payment in JazzCash, pick TESCO from the company list, and enter your reference number. Check the amount it quotes against the duplicate you have just opened before authorising. From a basic handset, *786# takes you through the identical sequence over USSD.
What this page returns is the current cycle for your meter, and the billing month is printed on the statement itself. PITC publishes no archive of earlier months, so the practical habit is to save each month's PDF while it is still live. A fresh bill normally appears on or just after the issue date shown at the top of the previous one.
Cooling load, almost entirely. Air conditioning lifts monthly units sharply, and because the tariff is stepped, each of those additional units is charged at a higher rate than the ones beneath it — so the total rises faster than the consumption. A positive FPA in the same cycle makes it worse again. Inverter air conditioners, and for Time-of-Use meters shifting heavy appliances out of the evening peak, are the two changes that show up measurably on the next bill. Across Khyber, Mohmand, Bajaur this is the steepest seasonal swing anywhere in TESCO's territory.
No. There is no account to create, and the reference number is passed straight to PITC to render the bill rather than being written to any database on this side. The recent-lookups shortcut, if you use it, keeps those numbers in your own browser's storage on your own device. Treat the reference as account-sensitive anyway — on its own it is enough to view your bill.
A few seconds under normal conditions. The variable is PITC's response time, not anything here — around monthly billing dates the government portal slows noticeably. If a lookup returns nothing, read the digits back against the printed TESCO bill before retrying, because a single transposed figure produces an empty result rather than an error.
Usually, yes. The duplicate carries the same reference, the same line items and the same amount as the original, which is what a bank or landlord is verifying. A few institutions still want a stamped original, so it is worth asking before you rely on it.
Often it is, since it comes straight from the official PITC portal and reflects the TESCO account exactly as the utility holds it. Whether to accept it is the authority's or landlord's decision rather than ours. Keeping the payment confirmation message alongside the PDF makes for a noticeably stronger record.
Note both readings exactly as printed, then raise it with TESCO — the helpline on the bill, or your subdivision office if a physical meter inspection is needed. This site displays precisely what PITC returns; it cannot correct a reading or open a dispute on your behalf.
Begin with the TESCO helpline printed on the bill, or your nearest TESCO subdivision office for anything physical. If nothing moves, escalate to the Prime Minister's Delivery Unit or to NEPRA's consumer complaint portal at nepra.org.pk. We are an independent viewer with no access to TESCO account records and cannot file anything for you.
Protected describes a household averaging 200 units a month or less, billed on NEPRA's subsidised slab rates. Above that you are unprotected and pay the full tariff, and the difference between the two is substantial. Your TESCO bill prints which one applies. Households that qualify register through the Cross Subsidy Scheme at css.pitc.com.pk.
A fixed monthly charge for the meter hardware itself, where it applies to your connection. On the TESCO duplicate it sits with the energy and tax lines, and it does not move with how much you consume.
Late Payment Surcharge — the amount added once the due date on your TESCO bill has gone by. It is why the bill prints two totals: the figure payable in time and the larger one after. Settle against the first and the second is never charged.
The alert can miss for something as ordinary as an out-of-date mobile number on the account, or a network hiccup. Either way, the reference number pulls the bill up here regardless. It is worth ringing TESCO to correct the registered number so later cycles do reach you.
Yes, as long as 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 refuses to load, switching networks or turning the VPN off almost always fixes it.
On a Time-of-Use meter in TESCO territory the expensive band typically runs 7 PM to 11 PM, with everything outside it billed off-peak. Shifting cooling, ironing and laundry out of that window is where the money is saved. On a standard meter the time of day has no effect on the bill at all.
Through enc.pitc.com.pk, the Electronic New Connection portal. Select TESCO, fill in the form, upload the documents it asks for, pay the demand notice online, and follow the tracking number it issues. There is a step-by-step walkthrough for this company at /enc-services/tesco.
Yes — Tribal Electric Supply Company (TESCO) processes NEPRA-licensed net metering applications throughout its territory. The order of events is: install the rooftop system, apply to TESCO for a bidirectional meter, then export surplus generation against whatever you import. The detail is under /guides/solar.
Tribal Electric Supply Company (TESCO) supplies Khyber, Mohmand, Bajaur, Kurram, North Waziristan and 1 further districts within its NEPRA-licensed territory.
Three short explainers for the questions that come up once the bill is open.
The TESCO 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 TESCO 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, TESCO customer service can read the reference back to you once they have verified the account, and it also appears in TESCO 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 TESCO 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.
Tribal Electric Supply Company bills Khyber, Mohmand, Bajaur, Kurram, North Waziristan, South Waziristan from one central system, so the lookup is identical wherever you are inside the territory. A TESCO bill check in Khyber and one in Mohmand 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.
TESCO consumers often cross-check reference numbers against SMS alerts and sub-division records while navigating security and infrastructure transitions. Bills include the same statutory surcharges and fuel adjustments as other DISCOs, with slab and category lines dictating unit price. Online duplicate retrieval through PITC-backed flows supports JazzCash, Easypaisa, and banking channels where mobile coverage allows—reducing dependence on slow paper delivery in remote valleys.
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 TESCO 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 “TESCO previous bill check online” and “TESCOold 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 TESCO 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.
Tribal 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 TESCO directly, and the TESCO complaint routes and helplines are listed here.
Bijli ka bill is simply the everyday Urdu for an electricity bill, and TESCO 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 TESCO 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 Khyber 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.
