7th Pay Commission latest news: DA could rise by 3% to 5%
Media reports have said that the Centre could hike the DA for Central employees by 3 to 5 percent keeping in mind the inflation rate and the recommendations of the 7th Pay Commission. There are some reports also suggesting that if the DA hike reaches close to 50 percent, then it will be reduced to zero.
Back in 2016, when the Central government implemented the 7th Pay Commission, the DA was reduced to zero. So, if the basic salary of an employee is Rs 18,000, then the employee will get a 50 percent DA of Rs 9000.
