  1. Being a family pensioner struggling hard to meet the day to day expenses, again news showing bumper hike in central DA&DR from Jan 2022 looks like a joke for me!!!! With the inflation we are facing right now how much it is justified to increase DA&DR at the rate of 3%….Freezing DA…Not giving Arrears….no change in fitment factor!!! Waiting for Ache Din!!!

  2. Government has changed base year to 2016. Hence hereafter Government employees and retired Government employees will not get the usual DA hike and the hike will be at a lower level because the Government has added more items in the essential basket and hence the index tends to decrease when compared to the old increase. This Government is going to cheat it’s employees and pensioners in future. Please take it from me.

  3. in all side expenditure is increasing and here we the employee salary is on freeze-ed, This Government will keep on blaming the Pandemic, where the country can still spend crore of money in other sector, and leaving behind the pillar of the government, now some will still support the Government and its act.
    from my side i see that the Govt. can unfreezed our D.A and give us all pending dues to the Employees but i don’t know what kind of politics they are playing, we are all contractual worker under government view.
    i am planning to start a self business rather then working under this Government.

  4. Since October 2020 there is no DA allowed to the 1997 payrevised cpsu employees who are facing lots of problems with the existing old payscale Salaries which cannot be comparable with Other PSU’S who are drawing latest payscale which are according to the present economy were surviving but Sufferer is only who is working with the old payscale of 1997 I.e, 23 year backlog and still working hard towards his best possibilities for getting New payscale.
    Government should roll back their decision on Freezing DA to the old payscale cpsu employees.

  5. Since these Government came to Power in 2014 year, most of the PSU’S were kept in Darkness and not even allowed to Revive which are came under NPA and are still running with very Old payscale like 1997 and drawing very less Salaries which are cannot be compared to the other Co-Public Sectors which are entitled the latest pay scale of 2017 year . How come these Government forget about the employees who gave sacrifice to their services with old salaries and implementing such a Draconian policy towards the Sufferer and not only this they were not allowed get Retirement benefits since last 3 years where is the truth and justification.

    • are you leaveing in paradise world? it is correct disicine on part of goverment as covid pandamic19 govt have to meet very essetial things all indian have to vacinated free of of cost where FROM money will come BROTHER FROM 2004 no pesion/da govt have to pay Do you think de nationalise of AIR INDIA IS WRONG STEP?

  6. What ever it may be whether DA increased or not no nobody will get benefit especially pensioners. States are increased salaries and DA.

  7. Freezing of da and payment of no arrears from Jan 2020 is not a good order… freeze was OK but non payment of arrears is never good…. Relief is to relieve the employees from worries but the Govt.has added and hence swollen the worries….

  8. Huge research now flooded with possible rate of percentage of DA likely to be on July 2021.Since the base year now 2016=100and new formula set in forth from January 2021.The computation for DA is also changed. Since the denominator are high due to spike of inflation dominated by supply and demand constraint. And corresponding numerator too lower as new index point to be arrived by a divider 2.88.So DA on July likely to be 27or 28percnt And no DA on January 2021.But not worrying too much DA will on upper circuit from on and towards July 2022

  9. For the month of October 2020, index point is expected to be increased by 02 points i.e. it may be 120 for the Base 2016=100.
    so if we multiply it with the linking factor (2.88) of the old series 2001=100 and new series 2016=100, it comes as 345.60 rounding to 346.
    It means the DA becomes 27.30 till October 2020.

  10. It is notified as 118 as index number for sept 2020 under new series. But the da entitlement for this figure is required to be calculated. Thanks.
