Since 2012, no one has used this form. I am starting a new discussion in this forum as follows:
New discussion on the announcement/calculation of Dearness Allowances by the Central Government. As everybody knows, D.A. is based on market strategies. Retail rates in the market are increasing day by day. Almost the ration budget of all consumers has been raised by about 50% for all families in the two years of Modi's Government, but the rate of increase in D.A. is decreasing. Whereas in earlier years, D.A. was raised by the Central Government by 10 to 12%, in the Modi Government, it decreased to 2% for July 2016. Though it has a minor effect on the private sector, it has significant effects on millions of employees of central and state governments.
Anybody may know the formulae for D.A. calculations by the earlier Government and the Modi Government.

1. Sir, I think earlier to January 2016, the rate of increase in DA was being calculated based on the recommendations of the 6th Pay Commission, which was effective w.e.f. January 2006. Now, the Government has merged such increase in DA up to January 2016 (approx. 125%) with the basic pay. Hence, now there is a lower percentage of Dearness Allowance as declared by the Government.
2. Further, I understand that the increase in DA is based on the increase in prices as observed by the appropriate Government during a specific period. It is accordingly less or more depending on the increase in prices during such a specific period as reported by the concerned agencies.

Hi Seniors, Mr. Mehta has subscribed for this thread, but it is the imagination. What is the legal implication/source in this respect.

1. Sir, for the basis of calculations of DA, etc., you can download necessary literature/information from the relevant websites of the 6th and 7th Pay Commissions, orders issued by the Central Govt. Finance Ministry, etc., and also from Central Govt. Employees' News.
2. Do you feel that the present Modi Govt. has separate policies in respect of Central Govt. Employees compared to earlier Govts?
