The computer powers off even before the critical or low battery percentage is reached and no low power indication is shown. It shuts down abruptly.

Tried to reinstall the package through apt to fix the problem, but no avail. This is most probably a bug in the indicator-power package.

Thank you for your bug report. Could you add a 'journalctl' log from the session which had the issue?

Is your battery working correctly or does it see drops between levels?

Is it possible to reproduce the issue? If so it would be useful to get a low of levels as reported by upower
$ while :; do upower -d | grep perc >> log; sleep 30; done
Then add 'log' after hitting the issue
