Maybe you should shift to Kannur. A wealthy hi fi enthusiast is offering free electricity, ice-soda-vodka and some girls to electrify your mood. So you wont mind if the room stays dark for 12 hours.

17000 last month for 2 months and for May and June we are expecting a bill of 28000-30000....although there are 6 people in the house, it is still a ridiculous amount ...
No wonder you all have fancy hi-fi gear looking at the amount you pay for electricity..

350-400 before the TV. Then it become 400-450Rs.. Then cometh the PS3, it shot up to 500-550Rs. Along came an AVR with a Sub and a BD player later(this I think reduced the load as PS3 is not used that much for movies now) and now the bill is hovering at 600-650Rs per month.
Mostly CFL's for light (there are 3 tubelights but only 1 is used at the bedroom). Fridge is on all the time. Washing machine sometime(twice weekly on an average). And I live in an igloo (probably mine is the coldest place in Bangalore) so I don't need AC at all. Fan only runs sometimes during the hottest days.

Suri Sir, At his Best :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:. Mine averages around 600/- to 750/- per month. Power cuts are regular (3-4 hours per day)

Mine is Rs.800-1000/month for all year round except for Apr,May when it shoots to 2500/month due to the A/c being turned on @ Night for 8 hour everyday.
The only power guzzler is my old BPL 185ltr fridge...which if I replace with a 5star rate one, I beleive my bill will come down by Rs.500
The splitup:
3 Fans
3x11Watta CFL
1x25Watts CFL
1 Microwave - use only to reheat tea/coffee
1 Front loader WM - runs every day
1 29" CRT TV - on for almost 8 hours a day
1 PS2 in standby mode
1 STB - consumes only 10Watts

LOL. Thought you'd leave them ON since the stratos, I heard, needs ample warm up time?!

as Venkat said, there are load of people stealing electricity. I guess we have to pay up for them as well. Electricity in ncr is expensive as it has to buy from other states to keep up almost 24x7 supply (true for delhi, noida is also ok, but not gzbd, fdbd etc).

On weekends or other days I am at home, I turn on the amp in the morning and it stays on till I go out somewhere. Otherwise they stay off. I cannot trust the electricity
Yup, the stratos sound better if they are adequately warmed up.

On an average of Rs 1200- 6000 ( higher side only if I use the A/c all the time)
