The second tier (7–12 m³) will see a 5-piaster increase per cubic metre.

The third tier (13–18 m³) will see a 10-piaster increase.

The fourth tier (19–24 m³) will see a 5-piaster increase.

The fifth tier (25–30 m³) will see a 10-piaster increase.

Tariffs will remain unchanged for the sixth tier (31–42 m³) and seventh tier (consuming more than 42 m³ monthly).

A 1-piaster increase per cubic metre applies to the second tier.

A 20-piaster increase applies to the third tier.
