Why This Matters & What to Watch
With rising electricity and water prices, these rebates provide tangible relief to many households. They especially benefit lower- to middle-income families in smaller HDB flats.
However, fluctuations in Town Council S&CC rates mean that even for the same flat type, actual rebate amounts may differ across towns. Also, households that own multiple properties may lose eligibility.
Tip: Check HDB’s InfoWEB and SP Services portals around October to confirm your rebates and eligibility status early.
