Who serves Clifton-DHA
All electricity supply, metering and billing in Clifton & DHA Karachi is operated by K-Electric Limited under the IBC DHA integrated business centre. Walk-in disputes, sanctioned-load applications and title transfers are handled at KE House, 39-B, Sunset Boulevard, Phase-II, DHA, Karachi.
Bulk supply for the area is fed from the KDA Grid Station (220kV) grid station.
Load profile: Predominantly residential A-1c slab with the city's highest single-phase domestic loads (split AC, EV chargers, pool pumps). Sea-air salt accelerates terminal corrosion — request a meter inspection if reading jumps suddenly.

Clifton & DHA Karachi — frequently asked
Which IBC do I visit for a DHA Phase 6 billing dispute?+
IBC DHA at Khayaban-e-Shahbaz handles every Defence phase and Clifton. Bring your CNIC, last paid bill and the dispute reference SMS — walk-in hours are 9 AM – 5 PM Monday to Saturday.
Is Clifton on K-Electric's exempt feeder list?+
Most of Clifton Block 2–5 and DHA Phases 5–8 sit on low-loss feeders that are exempt from scheduled load-shedding. Pockets of older Block 7 and Phase 1 can still see 1–2 hour rota during peak summer demand surges.
How long does net metering take in DHA?+
From a complete application at IBC DHA, expect 60–90 days for the bidirectional meter swap. DHA has the highest approved rooftop-solar density in Karachi, so backlogs widen in March–May.
Why is my Clifton bill higher than my neighbour's at the same kWh?+
Sanctioned load slabs differ. If your meter is rated above 5 kW you fall outside the protected-consumer band and pay non-protected slab rates from unit 1 — even if usage is identical.
Sea-side flat — humid meter readings inflated?+
Possible if the meter terminal box has salt corrosion. File a meter-test request at IBC DHA (Rs. 500 fee, refundable if the meter is found faulty).
Editorial note: feeder names and IBC boundaries change periodically. Confirm with helpline 118 for current dispatch.
