Govt employees entitled to 7% additional DA from January

Central and state government employees will be entitled to 7 per cent additional dearness allowance (DA) with effect from January 1, 2012.

   This increase is on account of the proportionate rise in twelve-month moving average of Consumer Price Index for Industrial Workers (CPI-IW) as of December 2011, according to Labour Bureau sources. The DA is revised every six months based on this average.

   The employees are getting 58 per cent of basic and grade pay as DA and with 7 per cent increase from this month the DA payable to them would be 65 per cent. Meanwhile, cheaper food items sharply pulled down retail inflation based on CPI-IW to 6.49 per cent in December.

   Inflation based on CPI-IW stood at 9.34 per cent in November, according to Labour Ministry data released today. Meanwhile, inflation based on the food index for industrial workers moderated to 1.97 per cent in December from 7.61 per cent in November.
