Pl. refer my comments dt. 4/10/12. The “DP” may be read as “DR” The readers can offer their valuable suggestion on this vital issue.
I endorse the views expressed by Supriya Kr. Roychoudhury. Serving employees getting annual increments, HRA, CCA and other allowances besides D.A. But the Pensioners are not entitled allowances except D.R. The basic Pension of serving employees increases 50% of D.A. calculated for Pension once in six months besides 3% of increment every year and thus eligible to get higher rate of Pension at the time of superannuation; whereas the Pensioners are deprived this legitimate claim & they ought to have been paid 25% of increase in DR in the same way and it should be added with basic Pension along with normal % of increase in DR.. Suppose if the Govt announces 8% DR, 2% of basic Pension of Pensioners must be merged with Basic Pension i.e. 25% of D.R. periodically or in a stipulated period. The Govt. should not see it as Profit & Loss A/c of Govt. It is a social security oblication of every Govt. or any institution to protect the interest of Senior Citizen in recognition of their noble service to the Society/Nation to lead a peaceful life at their old Age. As rightly pointed out by our President His Excellency recently the Seniors Citizen need special privileges/protection from our Society. After all Pension is a “Deferred Payment of Salary” Readers can offer their valuable suggestions on this crucial vital subject.

D.R. to the GOI pensioners is now required to be more by two to three parcent every time than the serving employees D.A. Mail your views friends.
Although it is too early to predict da for jan 13, let us hope for the best and expect da would cross 80% i.e 8% or 9%.

The D.A. increase is a routine Office process like getting annual increment and therefore it may be communicated through an administrative order without giving wide publicity through media as now being done in the case of Banks & other PSUs. The GOI and all State Govt. must consider this point/suggestion in future.very good news but goverment stafe must the goverment consider the news.03.10.2012.????????????????????????????????????????

Dear Manoj Kumar

DA w.e.f. Jan 13 will be 8% as per trend of AICPIN and it may go 9% also..
DA FOR JAN.2013.8% OR.9% ???????????????????????????????????????????????
DA w.e.f. Jan 13 will be 8% as per trend of AICPIN and it may go 9% also.
Mr Puneet, the figure of AICPI is for the month of August only and not for Sept.2012
DA RATE WEF JAN 2013 EXPECTED TO BE 82% (10% INCREASE )
We have calculated the expected DA(dearness allowance ) wef 01.01.2013 (January,2013) and this is not a pure guess work but based on facts and we have also explained these facts and circumstances that How we have estimated the DA Rate wef January ,2013(01.01.2013) ?.
We Know it is very early to calculated the DA rate for January 2013 as Government has not yet decided about the DA rate wef 01.07.2012. Earlier we have also informed you in May 2012 that Da Rate wef 01.07.2012 will be 72 % i.e 7 % Increase from old DA Rate of 65 % .
Today(24.09.2012) Cabinet will discuss DA rate wef 01.07.2012 and will announce DA 72 %.
DA for 01.01.2012 has already been declared at 65 %..
DA(dearness allowance) rates are fixed on the basic of All India Consumer Price Index for industrial workers.Base year has been taken as 2001. This new DA rate system is adopted by Central and State Governments and public sector Under takings from 01.01.2006 with new pay scale as declared by the Pay commission . DA rates are to be announced half yearly basis and applicable from first of January and First of July.
How to calculate Dearness Allowance from the year 2006:
It is very simple ,suppose if you want to calculate Dearness Allowance with effect from Jan-13, get the average of monthly All India Consumer Price Index for industrial workers with the base year 2001=100 for the preceding 12 months and apply the same in the following formula
Formula
Dearness Allowance = (Avg of AICPI for the past 12 months – 115.76^)*100/115.76^
(ignore fractions)
^ Here 115.76 means average of price index from Jan 2005 to Dec 2005.
So to calculate Estimated DA rate wef January,2013 (01.01.2013), we need Price index average from January, 2012 to December,2012.
As per Labour Bureau, Department Statistics, Government of India website index for January 2012 to July,2012 has already been declared .
However Price Index from August,2012 to December,2012 is yet to be declared,In fact will be declared in future .
So to estimate the DA rates wef January ,2013 we have estimated the Price Index from August,2012 to December ,2012 . We will revise the Calculation as and when these months actual figures will be available.
We have calculated 4 possible equation/ Estimates ,which is shown in the picture below.
Case-1
In First case we have added one each month in price index starting from August ,2012 to December 2012. Though we think price index will be higher .
On the Basis of The assumption the total of price index from January 2012 to December 2012 will be 2504 and Avg for Last 12 months will be 208.67 .The calculation for dearness allowance (DA) wef January ,2013 is given as under.
Dearness allowance (01.01.2013)=(208.67-115.76)*100/115.76= 80.26%(ignore fraction)=80 %
The above calculation assures us us that at least DA will be declared at 80% wef 01.01.2013 that is a Increase of 8 % from 72 % (wef 01.07.2012).
Further If Sum of price index of Last twelve months remains with 2500-2514 then DA rate will remain 80% wef 01.01.2013
Case-2
In Second case we have added two each month in price index starting from August ,2012 to December 2012. Though we think price index will be on higher side .
On the Basis of The assumption the total of price index from January 2012 to December 2012 will be 2519 and Avg for Last 12 months will be 209.92 .The calculation for dearness allowance (DA) wef January ,2013 is given as under.
Dearness allowance (01.01.2013)=(209.92-115.76)*100/115.76= 81.34%(ignore fraction)=81 %
The above calculation assures us that DA will be declared at 81% wef 01.01.2013 that is a Increase of 9 % from 72 % wef (01.07.2012)
Further If Sum of price index of Last twelve months remains with 2515-2528 then DA rate will remain 81% wef 01.01.2013
da for jan.2012.pappu
September 30, 2012 at 7:23 AM.approved.9%
With increase of aicpin by 2 points for august 2012, the overall impact over a balance period of 5 months I.e. upto Dec 12 is 10 points. So for 8% rise in da from 72% to 80%, only increase of additional 2 points over a period of next 4 months is required. So, it can be comfortably concluded that 80& da web Jan 2013 is assured. Now for 9%,one needs additional increase of 16 points (cumulative) in next 4 months. So an increase of 2 points every month makes an overall impact of (8+6+4+2=20) points and then 9% is assured.
Keep a watch on aicpi every month and you yourself can have fairly good idea about likely da wef Jan 2013.
What happened to Dearness Relief Order to Pensioners?
sept acpin can shoot upto 2%…
The goverment IC UNITE The Govt. must consider the request of many Govt. employees/Pensioners to merge 50% D.A. with basic salary/Pension as was done previously.??????????????ONLY BJP GOVERMENT

hi friends DA will be 80 to 82 % from jan 2013.
dear V. Loganathan
