Check your GEPCO bill only on the official GEPCO or PITC bill page, or through our GEPCO bill checker, and enter the number printed on your own paper bill. Most of the top search results for "GEPCO bill check" are copycat sites rather than the company. As of October 2026, your bill will also carry a fuel cost adjustment of Rs 1.11 per unit for August 2026 consumption, unless you are a lifeline or prepaid-tariff consumer.
This guide covers how to spot a copycat page, which number to have ready, what the October charge is, and where to go if the bill looks wrong. Where a detail could not be confirmed from an official GEPCO source, it says so and tells you where to check.
Why the search results for GEPCO bills are risky
If you search for your GEPCO bill, the first page of results is almost all lookalike sites. Names such as gepcobillcheck.pk, onlinegepcobill.pk, gepcoonlinebil.pk and gepcobill.com.pk appear near the top. Several of them are designed to look official. None of them is GEPCO.
These sites matter for two reasons:
- The contact details disagree. Different copycat sites print different head-office phone numbers for GEPCO. They cannot all be right, and you have no way of knowing which, if any, is correct.
- You are typing your bill number into someone else's form. Your reference number identifies your connection. There is no reason to hand it to a site that has nothing to do with your distribution company.
The same pattern shows up with QR codes and "subsidy" links shared on WhatsApp. We cover those separately in how to spot fake electricity bill QR codes and subsidy links.
How to tell the official page from a copycat
Use these checks before you enter anything.
- Look at the address bar, not the logo. A GEPCO logo and green colours prove nothing; anyone can copy them. GEPCO bills are published through PITC, the body that runs bill lookups for the ex-WAPDA companies, or through GEPCO's own site. If the address is neither, close the tab.
- Be wary of sites full of adverts. Copycat pages tend to wrap the bill form in banners and pop-ups, and long articles padded with keywords.
- Do not trust phone numbers printed on unofficial sites. Take contact details from your paper bill or from GEPCO directly, not from a site you found through search.
- Never pay through a link on a bill-check site. Pay through your bank, a mobile wallet or an authorised collection point, using the details on your bill.
- If in doubt, start from a page you know. Our GEPCO bill checker sends your lookup to the official source, so you do not need to judge search results at all.
We have not been able to confirm the exact address of GEPCO's bill page on the PITC system for this guide. Rather than print an address that might be wrong, we suggest you reach it through GEPCO's own website or our checker page.
Which number to enter
You need the number that identifies your connection, printed near the top of your paper bill. On ex-WAPDA company bills that is usually the reference number, and some lookups also offer a customer ID option.
We could not confirm for this guide whether the GEPCO page accepts the reference number, the customer ID, or both. Enter whichever the official page asks for, and copy it exactly as it appears on your bill, digit by digit.
If you cannot find the number, or are not sure which one is which, our guide on where the reference number is on your electricity bill shows the layout.
A few practical points:
- Keep an old bill or a photo of one. The number does not change from month to month on the same connection.
- If you are a tenant, the number belongs to the meter, not to you. Ask the owner for an old bill if you do not have one.
- If the page returns no bill, re-check the digits before assuming anything is wrong with your account.
Areas GEPCO serves
GEPCO is the Gujranwala Electric Power Company, one of the ex-WAPDA distribution companies. Public listings, including Wikipedia, give its service area as Gujranwala, Sialkot, Narowal, Gujrat, Hafizabad, Wazirabad and Mandi Bahauddin.
We have not confirmed that list against GEPCO's own records. If you live near the edge of one of these districts, the reliable test is your bill itself: if the company name printed on it is GEPCO, use the GEPCO page. If it names another company, use that company's page instead.
The Rs 1.11 fuel charge on October 2026 bills
NEPRA, the power regulator, has approved a fuel charges adjustment (FCA) of Rs 1.1086 per unit for August 2026 consumption, rounded to Rs 1.11. It is being recovered through October 2026 bills.
The FCA exists because the cost of fuel for generating electricity changes from month to month, while base tariffs are set in advance against an expected "reference" fuel cost. When the actual cost differs, the difference is passed on later.
| Item | Rs per unit |
|---|---|
| Actual fuel cost, August 2026 | 8.2084 |
| Reference fuel cost | 7.0998 |
| Difference approved by NEPRA | 1.1086 (rounded to 1.11) |
| Amount the power purchaser had asked for | 1.7267 |
The request came from the Central Power Purchasing Agency (CPPA-G), which buys power on behalf of the distribution companies. NEPRA allowed less than it asked for.
Who pays it, and who does not
The adjustment applies to all consumer categories of the ex-WAPDA distribution companies and K-Electric. GEPCO is an ex-WAPDA company, so GEPCO consumers are included.
Three groups are excluded:
- lifeline consumers
- EV charging stations
- consumers on a prepaid tariff
If you are in one of these groups and your bill shows an FCA line, that is worth querying. If you are not sure which category you are in, the tariff code printed on your bill tells you.
What it adds up to
The charge is per unit, so the rupee amount depends on your consumption. As a rough guide to the FCA line on its own:
| Units the charge applies to | FCA at Rs 1.11 per unit |
|---|---|
| 100 | Rs 111 |
| 200 | Rs 222 |
| 300 | Rs 333 |
| 500 | Rs 555 |
The adjustment relates to August 2026 consumption, so check the units figure on your own bill's FCA line rather than assuming it matches this month's reading. For a full explanation of how the FCA and the quarterly adjustment sit on the bill, see our article on October 2026 bills, the FCA and the QTA.
If your October bill does not show it
Bills issued before NEPRA's decision was notified may get the adjustment in the following month instead. So a missing FCA line in October does not necessarily mean you have been let off; it may appear on your November bill. Check your next bill before raising it as an error.
You may also see different totals reported in the news for how much this adjustment raises across the country. The figures in different reports do not agree, and none of them changes the per-unit charge on your bill, so we have left them out.
If the bill looks wrong
Before you complain, compare three things on the bill:
- The meter readings. Check the previous and present readings against what your meter shows now. A large jump with no change in use is the most common sign of a misreading.
- The units billed. These should equal present reading minus previous reading, unless the bill says otherwise.
- The FCA line. It should be at Rs 1.11 per unit, and should not appear at all if you are a lifeline or prepaid-tariff consumer.
If something does not add up, put it in writing. Our complaint letter gives you a ready-to-send letter for a wrong bill, in English or Urdu, which you can take to your GEPCO subdivision office. Keep a copy, a photo of your meter showing the date, and the disputed bill.
We have not been able to confirm GEPCO's helpline number, SMS service or online complaint system from an official source for this guide, and copycat sites print numbers that conflict. Use the contact details printed on your own bill, or ask at your subdivision office, rather than calling a number from a search result.
As a general rule, pay the undisputed part of the bill by the due date while your complaint is considered, so you do not add a late payment surcharge to the problem.
Outages and planned shutdowns
GEPCO announces planned shutdowns for maintenance in advance. In July 2026, for example, it announced supply cuts on the Kuluwal and Down Stream feeders from 8:00 am to 1:00 pm on 15, 19, 22, 26 and 29 July, for repair and development work. That schedule has passed; it is given here only to show the kind of notice GEPCO issues.
We have not verified a current GEPCO load-shedding schedule. Our load-shedding page explains where each company publishes its schedule and how to report an outage.
If your supply goes off outside an announced window, note the time and report it through the channel listed on your bill. Neighbours on the same feeder losing power at the same moment usually points to a feeder fault rather than a problem with your connection.
What to do next
- Find your most recent paper bill and note the number printed near the top.
- Open our GEPCO bill checker instead of a search result, and enter that number.
- On your October 2026 bill, find the FCA line and check it is at Rs 1.11 per unit, or absent if you are a lifeline or prepaid-tariff consumer.
- If the FCA is missing, wait for your November bill before raising it.
- If the readings or units look wrong, photograph your meter and send a written complaint to your subdivision office using the contact details on your bill.
