Billing Summary

Basic Charge covers the cost of operating, maintaining, improving and expanding the distribution network, as well as the facilities that bring potable water to customers. It is based on the latest approved tariff schedule.

Sewerage Charge is 20% of Basic Charge for Commercial and Industrial customers connected to a sewer line. This charge is not levied on Residential and Semi-Business customers, or on Commercial and Industrial customers who are not connected to the sewer line.

Maintenance Service Charge (MSC) covers the maintenance of the water meter, and is based on the size of the installed meter.

Government Taxes consist of the 2% National Franchise Tax, and the Local Franchise Tax implemented by the respective local government units where the Business Area offices of Maynilad are located. This will be remitted to the national and local government (BIR for the National Franchise Tax and LGU for the Local Franchise Tax).

Previous Unpaid Amount pertains to charges billed prior to the billing period, and should be settled immediately together with the current charges to avoid disconnection of the water service.

Total Amount Due is the Total Current Charges plus any Previous Unpaid Amount.

Payment Due Date is the deadline for paying the Total Amount Due.

Environmental Charge covers the cost for wastewater treatment, or the removal of harmful chemicals and nutrients from wastewater before it is discharged to bodies of water. This is important to mitigate ecological damage and to promote environmental protection.

TARIFFS AND RATES

To ensure that Maynilad has the ability to sustain its operations and expand its services, it charges a water tariff that will allow it to gradually recover its investments, including its government-regulated profits.

The tariff follows a socialized structure so that those who consume less water are charged lower rates. Those who consume more water are charged higher rates.

Water consumers are also classified depending on the presence and nature of the economic activity in their house or establishment. Their classification determines what type of water rates will be applied to them, i.e., Residential, Semi-Business, Commercial, and Industrial.

Residential customers who consume 10 cu.m. or less per month are given a 20% discount by Maynilad. Commercial, industrial, and high-consuming customers are billed higher rates.

RATE REBASING

Rate Rebasing is the process of adjusting water rates every five years. The adjustment is based on the performance, expenses, earnings, unrecovered investments, and service improvement plans of the water concessionaires.

Rate rebasing enables the gradual increase of water rates despite the massive, accelerated investments of the water concessionaires. This is because the process is based on a cash flow analysis or the examination of money inflows and outflows.

Through cash analysis, the government ensures that the water concessionaires are not over-accumulating profits and losses. It also guarantees that full recovery of the concessionaires’ expenses and profits will only be possible when the concession agreement ends in year 2037.
