New Delhi: 7th Pay Commission Latest News --The Central employees could soon be getting some good news regarding Dearness Allowance (DA) once again.
Central employees and pensioners have started getting 28% dearness allowance as per 7th Pay Commission from September. Meanwhile, some reports in the media have indicated that government may give dearness allowance by adding the months from June. If this happens, the total dearness allowance will be 31% instead of 28%, which means that there is going to be a bumper increase in the salary of central employees.
Notably, the dearness allowance for June 2021 has not been decided yet. But, based on the AICPI data for January to May 2021, 3% dearness allowance could be increased further and also might be announced soon. At present, there is a lot of ambiguity as to when the final decision will be made. After an increase of 3 percent, the total dearness allowance will reach 31 percent.
