1. Basic salary of the employee Rs 56900
2. New dearness allowance (31%) Rs 17639 / month
3. Dearness allowance so far (28%) Rs 15932 / month
4. How much dearness allowance increased 17639-15932 = 1707 Rs/month
5. Increase in annual salary 1707X12 = Rs 20484
HRA is not included in the calculation
According to 31 percent dearness allowance, the total annual dearness allowance on the basic salary of Rs 56900 will be Rs 211,668.
