While issuing the order, the central government said that the house rent allowance and DA should be increased on the basis of basic salary of government employees. It is to be known that according to the rules, HRA has been increased because DA has exceeded 25%. For this reason, the central government has also decided to increase the HRA to 27%.

That is, if the basic salary of the employees is Rs 18000, there will be an increase of Rs 540 in DA. Higher your basic salary, higher will be the DA. Dearness Allowance will be 31% of Basic Pay and will increase accordingly.
