Three months’ arrears will be available

If sources are to be believed, even though the dearness allowance will be announced by the end of September. But, it can be paid with the salary of October. In such a situation, employees and pensioners will also get 3 months’ arrears. This arrears will be the difference between the previous dearness allowance and the new dearness allowance. Till now 50 percent DA and DR are being received. Now it will increase to 53 percent. In such a situation, 3 percent arrears will be paid. This will include July, August and September.

Dearness allowance will not be zero

The dearness allowance of the employees will not be zero. The calculation of dearness allowance (DA Hike calculation) will continue. There is no fixed rule regarding this. Last time this was done when the base year was changed. Now there is no need to change the base year and there is no such recommendation either. Therefore, further calculation for central employees will be done beyond 50 percent.
