50% DA Merger to be announced soon in Feb 2014

Government likely to consider 50% DA merger soon ; would be decided in the budget session of Parliament in February 2014.The current DA of 90% would cross 100% in January., but to be announced only in March 2014.

The merging of 50%DA with the basic pay would have no financial complications, as there would be no increase in other allowances  except an increase in HRA.This 50% DA would be labelled as " DEARNESS PAY" and given separately.


And the credit of all this  goes to 'Central Govt Employees Federation'.
