reference only — why?
This uses the BEE energy label's annual figure spread over its 1,600 test hours (3-star basis) — same basis as the size page's pills. A brutal summer, a hotter city or a leaky room runs above it; mild use runs below. Weather, thermostat setting and your tariff slab move the real number.Where do these numbers come from?
watts × hours × your tariff. We estimate wattage from the label size you picked, using the rated draw of current 3-star models (window fixed-speed units draw more per ton than inverter splits). Your per-unit tariff is on your electricity bill — slabs differ by state and usage.
