The union cabinet chaired by Prime minister Narendra Modi approves an additional hike of 2% DA,w.e.f from 01-07-2018,representing an increase of 2% over the existing rate of 7% of the Basic Pay/Pension, to compensate for price rise," an official government release stated.


The increase is in accordance with the accepted formula, which is based on the recommendations of the 7th Central 
Pay Commission
.

Now some of us may arise one question,Why only 2% DA hike ,why not 10% or 7%?
Will contractual ssa teachers  be benefitted with this hike?

So first let me give your first questions answer ...
But before then that lets learn why DA (Dearness allowance) is given to Govt.employees and how it is calculated?
Dearness Allowance is calculated as a percentage of an Indian citizen's basic salary to mitigate the impact of inflation on people. Indian citizens may receive a basic salary or pension that is then supplemented by a housing or a dearness allowance, or both. The guidelines that govern the DA vary according to where one lives. DA is a fully taxable allowance.. 
It consist mainly of Two types : 1) DA given under terms of employment 
2) DA not given under the terms of employment
 
So at present DA hike of 2% is fully calculated under that basis of inflation and price rise only. 

And now let me clear your doubt no.2.And yes all will get the benefit of that hike.It doesnt matter wether you are contractual or regular if your salary is under  scale pay ,you will be benefitted there is no doubt though it may take time to be announced by your respective state govt.and then your respective finance dept.

So i hope your doubts are all cleared.If any queries/ doubt/ suggestions feel free to write in comment section.And last but not the least ,keep visiting the site for exciting news ,knowledge ,facts,analysis,and entertainment.
