What Is FESCO?
FESCO stands for Faisalabad Electric Supply Company. It is a government-owned electricity distribution company responsible for supplying power to Faisalabad and surrounding districts, including Jhang, Toba Tek Singh, Chiniot, and parts of Sargodha and Nankana Sahib.
FESCO is one of the largest electricity distribution companies in Pakistan by consumer count, serving millions of domestic, commercial, and industrial connections. Like all distribution companies (DISCOs) in Pakistan, FESCO operates under the regulatory framework set by NEPRA (National Electric Power Regulatory Authority), which governs tariff rates, service standards, and consumer rights.
Areas Served by FESCO
FESCO's service area covers several major districts in central Punjab:
- Faisalabad (city and division)
- Jhang
- Toba Tek Singh
- Chiniot
- Parts of Nankana Sahib and surrounding areas
If your electricity connection falls within any of these districts, your bill is issued by FESCO and your reference number begins with the FESCO-specific prefix.
How to Find Your FESCO Reference Number
Your FESCO reference number is a 14-digit code printed clearly at the top of your paper electricity bill, usually in a highlighted box labeled "Reference No." or "Ref. No."
Other places you can find it:
- On your meter reading card (the card the meter reader leaves at your door)
- On any previous LESCO/FESCO correspondence from the company
- By calling the FESCO helpline: 041-9220070 — provide your name and address and they can look it up
Write down this number or save a photo of your bill — you will use it every month for online bill checks and payments.

Reading Your FESCO Bill Summary
Once your bill loads online, here are the key fields and what they mean:
| Field | What It Means |
|---|---|
| Reference No. | Your unique 14-digit account identifier |
| Consumer Name | Name registered with FESCO |
| Tariff Category | Domestic / Commercial / Industrial |
| Previous Reading | Meter reading from last month |
| Current Reading | Meter reading taken this billing cycle |
| Units Consumed | Difference between current and previous readings (kWh) |
| Fuel Price Adjustment | Variable monthly charge set by NEPRA |
| Fixed Charges | Flat monthly charge regardless of units used |
| Amount Payable | Total due before the due date |
| Due Date | Pay by this date to avoid surcharge |
| Surcharge Date | Final date before disconnection risk |
If the bill shows "Estimated" in the reading type, it means the meter reader could not access your meter and FESCO estimated your consumption based on previous usage. You can request an actual reading correction at your nearest FESCO subdivision office.
FESCO vs Other DISCOs: Which One Covers Your Area?
If you are unsure whether FESCO is your electricity provider, check the name printed at the top of your paper bill. For Faisalabad city and district, it will clearly say "Faisalabad Electric Supply Company." Consumers in Lahore are served by LESCO. Those in Gujranwala are covered by GEPCO. [See our LESCO Bill Guide] if your bill is from LESCO.
FAQ
What is the FESCO reference number?
The FESCO reference number is a 14-digit unique code assigned to every electricity connection under FESCO. It is printed on the paper bill, the meter card, and all official FESCO communications. You use it to check your bill online, pay via mobile wallets or bank, and contact FESCO about your account. [See our FESCO Reference Number guide] for a detailed explanation of where to find it.
How can I check my FESCO bill by CNIC?
FESCO's standard online bill inquiry uses the reference number, not the CNIC. However, if you have lost your reference number, you can call the FESCO helpline at 041-9220070 and provide your name, CNIC, and address — the customer service representative can locate your account and provide your reference number, which you can then use for online checking.
My FESCO bill is not showing online — what should I do?
If your bill is not appearing on MeraBill.pk or the FESCO website, there are a few possible reasons:
- The current billing cycle has not yet been finalized (meter reading data not uploaded yet)
- There may be a temporary system delay — try again after 24 hours
- You may have entered the wrong reference number — double check it on your paper bill
If the issue persists, call the FESCO helpline at 041-9220070 or visit your nearest FESCO subdivision office.
Can I check multiple FESCO connections from one device?
Yes. You can check any number of FESCO connections from MeraBill.pk or the FESCO website simply by entering different reference numbers. There is no account or login system tied to a device. This is convenient for landlords or property managers who need to check bills for multiple premises.
