Islamabad: The Directorate General of Gas ( Petroleum Division) has sought opinion of Law Ministry on the recovery of Levy on Captive Power Plants ( CPPs).

already been done by Sui companies whereas notification of CPP levy rate of March 7,2025 remained suspended until amended order was issued by the Islamabad High Court, therefore, a mechanism for recovery of levy arrears for the said months while remaining with the legal framework of the CPP Levy
Ordinance, 2025 is being worked-out.
In this context, legal opinion has been solicited from the Law and Justice Division as well AG Office in the matter of retrospective applicability of notified rate of levy of March 7, 2025 for the said months as well as its recovery thereof from consumers.
According to DG(Gas)it is understood that notification of rate of CPP levy of March 7, 2025 is in field and has not been
withdrawn, however, as soon as clarity on the above legal query is received, Petroleum Division will advise the Sui companies to proceed accordingly. Ends
