If we look at the records of previous years, the government had announced the hike in dearness allowance (DA) at the beginning of the year from Holi. In such a situation, there is a high possibility that the government may increase DA on March 5. Employees and pensioners will get big news before Holi (Holi 2025). Under the 7th Pay Commission, DA is increased twice a year. The first increase is effective from January 1, and the second from July 1, 2025. The first increase will be effective from January 1, 2025. The government can make its official announcement at any time but it is considered to be effective from January 1, 2025.

How much will DA increase?

The central government may soon give good news to its employees on Holi. It is expected that the government may announce a 3 to 4 percent increase in DA. If this happens, the salary of entry-level employees of the central government will increase. Employees whose basic salary is Rs 18,000 per month

will increase by Rs 540 to Rs 720 per month.

How is Dearness Allowance calculated?

If an employee’s salary is Rs 30,000 and his basic salary is Rs 18,000, then he is currently getting 50% DA i.e. Rs 9,000. If there is a 3% increase, then the DA will be Rs 9,540, which will increase the salary by Rs 540. At the same time, with a 4% increase, the DA will be Rs 9,720 and the salary will increase by Rs 720.
