0

The government can give another big gift to the central employees in the coming days. Due to this, there will be a strong increase in his salary. It is reported that the DA of central employees may reach 46 per cent in the second half of this year.

The government had increased Dearness Allowance (DA) and Dearness Relief (DR) by four percent for the first half of January to June 2023. After this DA increased from 38 percent to 42 percent. The government increases the DA of the employees every six months. Therefore, it is expected that if there is an increase of four per cent next time, DA will reach 46 per cent.

This time you can get approval soon

Actually, for the second half i.e. July to December 2023, an increase in DA will be announced in the coming days. It is being said that this time the government can take a decision on the increase in DA soon. Normally the government gives its approval in September or October. But this time there is a possibility of announcement in August. Explain that according to the recommendations of the Seventh Pay Commission, there is an increase in DA twice a year. There has been a four per cent increase in DA for the first half.

DA is a part of the salary structure

DA is part of the salary structure of government employees. In view of the inflation rate, the central government increases the DA of the employees. Higher the inflation, higher is the increase in DA. The Labor Bureau calculates dearness allowance and dearness relief for employees and pensioners. It is calculated on the basis of Consumer Price Index (CPI-IW).

How much will be the increase in salary?

If the DA of central employees becomes 46 percent, then their salary will also increase. Suppose the basic pay of a central employee is Rs 18,000. If we look at 42 percent, then DA becomes Rs 7560. On the other hand, if the DA increases to 46 per cent in the second half, then it will become Rs 8,280.

That means there will be an increase of Rs 720 per month in the salary. The government had also increased DA by four percent in the second half of the year 2022. That’s why this time also this much increase is being expected. However, no official statement has been issued by the government on this yet.

DA reached from 17 to 42 percent

Let us tell you that after a long time in July 2021, the central government increased the dearness allowance of central employees from 17 percent to 28 percent. After this, in October 2021, it was increased to 31 percent, giving another 3 percent hike.

The government had increased the DA of the employees by three percent in March 2022. After this increase, the dearness allowance of the employees was increased from 31 per cent to 34 per cent. After this, there has been an increase of four per cent in DA twice.
