Central government employees are likely to get 6% DA w.e.f January 2015:

DA for January 2015

Presently, the AICPIN value for the month of December has been released.(253) We need the AICPIN value for the past 12 months in order to calculate how much DA we will get in January 2015. Accordingly, the AICPIN value of all the twelve months has been released now. I have provided the data for your reference below:

Table showing AICPIN value of the past 12 months

Jan-14	237
Feb-14	238
Mar-14	239
April-14	242
May-14	244
Jun-14	246
July-14	252
Aug-14	253
Sep-14	253
Oct-14	253
Nov-14	254
Dec-14	253

In the above table, we can see that the AICPIN value for a period of fIVE months has remained constantly at 253. If we calculate the DA, based on the AICPIN value of twelve months, we arrive at a DA value of 113%. When we compare this DA percentage with the previous one, we find that it has increased by 6%. It is expected that this 6% DA increase will be officially released in the end of February or first week of March after it is approved by the Cabinet.
