2. The Dearness Relief may be released after adjusting the extra amount, if any, paid to pensioners in cases where the total unrevised pension exceeded revised pension, if still unadjusted, as brought out in para 8 of the OM of even number dated 14-10-2009.

3. Payment of Dearness Relief involving a fraction of a rupee shall be rounded off to the next higher rupee.
