‘No DA Arrears for 18 Months for CG Employees & Pensioners’

Are you eagerly awaiting the release of 18 months’ worth of DA arrears for Central Government employees and pensioners that were stopped during the Covid-19 epidemic?

Look no further than the latest update from Minister of State in the Ministry of Finance, Shri Pankaj Chaudhary. The decision to freeze three instalments of Dearness Allowance (DA)/Dearness Relief (DR) was made in response to the economic disruption caused by the pandemic. In Parliament today, Shri Pankaj Chaudhary, the Minister of State for Finance, addressed the matter of 18 months of DA arrears that are owed from January 1st, 2020 to June 30th, 2021. [Read full story]

Today (13.12.2022) in Parliament, the Minister of State for Finance, Shri Pankaj Chaudhary, addressed queries regarding the payment of Dearness Relief (DR) arrears of 18 months to pensioners. He informed that several Central Government employees and pensioner associations, including the National Council (JCM), National Federation of Indian Railwaymen (NFIR), and JCOs/OR Veterans Association (JOVA) have submitted requests for the release of 18 months arrears of DA and DR. Due to the economic disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the decision to freeze three installments of DA and DR to Central Government employees and pensioners scheduled from January 2020 to January 2021 was taken to ease pressure on Government finances.

As the adverse financial impact of pandemic in 2020 and the financing of welfare measures taken by Government has a fiscal spill over beyond Financial Year 2020-21, release of arrears of DA/DR was not considered feasible.

18 Months DA arrears Latest News Today 2022:

A letter dated August 18, 2022, was sent by the National Council (Staff Side) JCM Secretary to the Cabinet Secretary requesting payment of Dearness Allowance/Dearness Relief from 01.01.2020, 01.07.2020, and 01.01.2021 along with arrears for the duration of 18 months. The Staff-Side is willing to discuss the method of payment for the arrears. [Click to read more]

28% DA from July 2021

From July 2021 onward, all CG employees and pensioners will be receiving a payment of 28% of DA and DR on their basic pay and basic pension, respectively. This is because the accumulated percentage of Dearness Allowance from January 2020 to June 2021 has been included in the existing DA and approved for dispersion.

No Additional DA for 18 Months:

From January 2020 to June 2021, all Central Government Employees and Pensioners were granted a fixed Dearness Allowance (DA) and Dearness Relief (DR) rate of 17% for a period of 18 months. However, the Government of India has recently discontinued the additional DA and DR for this period. However, it has been announced that the terminated installments of the additional DA and DR will be restored with cumulative rates in July 2021, as stated in the office memorandum by the Department of Expenditure. Therefore, the next anticipated DA and DR increase will only occur in July 2021.

No DA Arrears for 18 Months

As per the Finmin Order, there will be no payment of DA and DR arrears for the duration of three installments ranging from 1st January 2020 to 30th June 2021.

3 Additional DA will Restore in July 2021

As stated in paragraph 2 of the Finance Ministry order, the rates of the suspended period will be restored on a cumulative basis once the Government declares the future installment of DA and DR due from July 1, 2021. The following table outlines the segments of DA that have been suspended.

What is ‘Freezing DA’?

What are DA and DR?

The terms Dearness Allowance (DA) and Dearness Relief (DR) are interchangeable. These benefits are given to current employees and retired employees, respectively.
