According to experts, the way the situation of inflation is, it is clear that in the coming days dearness allowance will also increase by 4 percent. At present, inflation is very low in the country as compared to the world, but by January 2023 the picture may be different. In such a situation, if the dearness allowance increases by 4 percent, it will reach 42 percent.

Basic salary will increase as soon as there is 50 percent dearness allowance

There is a rule of dearness allowance. When the government implemented the 7th Pay Commission in the year 2016, then dearness allowance was made zero at that time. According to the rules, as soon as the dearness allowance reaches 50 per cent, it will be made zero and according to 50 per cent, the money which the employees will be getting as allowance will be added to the basic salary i.e. minimum salary. Suppose the basic salary of an employee is Rs 18000, then he will get Rs 9000 of 50% DA. But, after DA is 50%, it will be added to the basic salary and again the dearness allowance will be reduced to zero.

When is dearness allowance made zero?

Whenever the new pay scale is implemented, the DA received by the employees is added to the basic salary. Experts say that as a rule, 100% DA received by the employees should be added to the basic salary, but this is not possible. Financial condition comes in the way. However, this was done in the year 2016. Before that in the year 2006, when the sixth pay scale came, at that time 187 percent DA was being received till December in the fifth pay scale. The entire DA was merged with the basic pay. Hence the coefficient of 6th pay scale was 1.87. Then new pay band and new grade pay were also created. But, it took three years to deliver it.

Financial burden on the government increases

At the time of the Sixth Pay Commission in the year 2006, the new pay scale was implemented from January 1, 2006, but its notification was issued on March 24, 2009. Due to this delay, DA Arrear of 39 to 42 months was paid to the government in 3 installments in 3 financial years 2008-09, 2009-10 and 2010-11. A new pay scale was also created. In the fifth pay scale of 8000-13500, 186 percent DA on 8000 was Rs 14500. Therefore, on adding both, the total salary was 22 thousand 880. In the sixth pay scale, its equivalent pay scale was fixed at 15600 -39100 plus 5400 grade pay. In the sixth pay scale, this salary was 15600-5400 plus 21000 and on adding 16 percent DA 2226 on January 1, 2009, the total salary was fixed at Rs 23 thousand 226. The recommendations of the Fourth Pay Commission were implemented in 1986, the fifth in 1996, and the sixth in 2006. The recommendations of the Seventh Commission came into force in January 2016.
