A second look at natural gas bills: The discount is coming to an end

Before the presidential and parliamentary elections, a discount was applied to the 25 cubic meters of natural gas used for kitchen and bathroom purposes. This discount amounted to approximately 150 TL. However, this natural gas discount is ending as of April.

BAD NEWS FOR CITIZENS

With the natural gas discount ending in April, an additional fee will be added to your natural gas bills. However, this additional fee will not be a figure like 10 TL or 20 TL. The additional charges will be steep.

For 12 months, you had been using the 25 cubic meter portion of your natural gas usage for free. Your new natural gas bills will arrive with approximately 150 TL added, stemming from this 25 cubic meter portion.

WILL THERE BE A PRICE HIKE AFTER THE ELECTION?

The March 31 Local Elections coincide exactly with the date the natural gas discounts are set to end. Following the election, a natural gas price hike is at the top of the list of increases to be implemented alongside many taxes.

Central Bank Governor Fatih Karahan already signaled the upcoming natural gas price hike during his first meeting. Making statements in front of the cameras, Fatih Karahan said that new regulations would be made in electricity and natural gas prices in the coming days.
