How to Calculate Dearness Allowance (DA)?

The Dearness Allowance (DA) for Central government employees and pensioners is calculated using a simple formula. This formula uses two main factors: the Current Consumer Price Index and the Average Consumer Price Index. These indices are updated monthly and represent the cost of living. The base year for these indices was updated from 2001 to 2016. To calculate the DA, we first adjust the data to match the new base year, and then apply the formula:

Dearness Allowance (DA)=Average IndexCurrent Index – Average Index​×100

This calculation helps determine the DA, which is a key part of the salary or pension for Central government employees and pensioners.

Calculate DA AICPIN:

The AICPIN (All India Consumer Price Index Number) is crucial for finding Dearness Allowance (DA) for Central Government employees and retirees. The DA calculation uses the most recent version of the CPI (Consumer Price Index) for Industrial Workers, which has a base year of 2016=100. The Labour Bureau publishes the data from the previous month at the end of each month. To calculate the DA percentage for the current month, you need to have the AICPIN numbers for the past 12 months, including the current month. The calculation can be done following some below steps.

To figure out the Expected Dearness Allowance (DA), you need to look at the Consumer Price Index (CPI) data from the last 12 months. This data is used in a formula set by the 7th Pay Commission, which has been used since 2016.

If you want to work out the DA for January 2024, you need to look at the All India Consumer Price Index for Industrial Workers (AICPIN) data from January 2023 to December 2023. You then find the average of this data. After that, you take the given Fitment Factor of 261.42 and work out the excess value. The final number, rounded to the nearest whole number, gives you the DA percentage.

July 2024 DA Calculation in 6 Stages | Jan-Jul 2024:

There are some problems with figuring out the Dearness Allowance (DA) for July 2024. The main issue is that the Labour Bureau is not giving out the AICPIN data correctly, which is causing delays. We are hoping this will be fixed soon.

The first step of calculating the DA for Central Government workers and pensioners from July 2024 is done. According to the 7th Pay Commission’s formula, the DA percentage has gone up to 50.85%.

The next step has been delayed because the Labour Bureau did not release the AICPIN data for February 2024 as planned on 28th March 2024.

The final step is supposed to be finished by April 30, 2024. But, the Labour Bureau not released the AICPIN data on time, so the DA calculation for February and March 2024 is still waiting to be done.
