In telescopic (slab-wise progressive) billing, each unit is charged at the rate of the slab it falls into, so only the portion above a threshold is billed at the higher rate. In non-telescopic billing, crossing into a higher slab means the entire month's consumption is billed at that slab's rate, not just the excess.
