Expected DA from January 2016

As per the AICPIN data, expected dearness allowance from January 2016 will be 125%, there are chances to get 126% of DA, if AICPIN for the month of December 2015 will be above 272 points.

Dearness Allowance is confirmed for 125% as of current AICPIN data. Let us assume for December 2015, if AICPIN stayed or increased upto 1 point i.e. upto 271, DA will be 125%, incase on or above 272 then DA will be 126%

AICPIN Point for Dec (assumption) % of DA
upto 271 125
on or above 272 126

 

Dearness Allowance already estimated 125% in the 7th pay Commission Report, based on 125% the Pay Commission calculated the multiplication factor to 2.57, incase DA from January 2016 reaches 126% then there are chances to revise the multiplication factor from 2.57.

Fight for uniform multiplication of 14 times of the Grade pay

SHRI KHAJA SYED HAMEED HAS PREPARED A COMPARATIVE CHART ON THE RECOMMENDATIONS OF 7TH CPC WHEREIN INCREASE OF PAY HAS BEEN ANALYSISED ON THE BASIS OF EXISTING GRADE PAY. IN THIS METHOD ALSO GROUP C AND GROUP B EMPLOYEES FOUND SUFFERER. THE STATEMENT AS PREPARED BY HIM IS GIVEN BELOW:

VII th Pay Commission Injustice

Dear Sir,
I am bringing the following to your knowledge and information of Central Government Staff that VIIth Pay commission has done injustice to 98% of the Central Government Staff by just giving a multiplication factor of around 10 times their existing Grade Pay but generously awarded more than 14 times multiplication benefit to higher officials. So please fight for uniform multiplication of 14 times of the Grade pay and for each year of service one increment at the new scale as recommended to retired employees to give justice to all.

PB I      Rs 5200-20200

Grade Pay

 Minimum recommended @ entry level by 7th CPC (Rs) in the Pay Matrix Multiplication factor by VII th pay Commission
1800 18000  10 times
1900 19900 (difference +1900) 10.47
2000 21700(difference +1800) 10.85
2400 25500(difference +3700) 10.62
2800 29200(difference +3800) 10.42

Initially for first 2 stages every Rs100/ in GP the corresponding proposed increase is 1800 0r 1900 but for GP difference of Rs 400/ at later 2 stages the corresponding increase is only Rs3700/ to Rs3800/- whereas it must be Rs1800 0r 1900 multiplied by 4times to Rs7200-7600/.

PB II      Rs 9300-34800

Grade Pay

 Minimum recommended @ entry level by 7th CPC (Rs) in pay matrix Multiplication factor by VII th pay Commission
4200 35400(difference +6200) 8.42 times
4600 44900 (difference +9500) 9.76
4800 47600(difference +2700) 9.91
5400 53100(difference +5500) 9.83

Initially for Rs1400/- GP difference the corresponding increase proposed is Rs6200/- but in next stage for Rs400/-GP  the proposed hike is mind blowing Rs9500/-,in next stage for Rs200/-GP the increase is Rs2700/- and for Rs600/-GP hike further increase is Rs5500/-

PB III    Rs 15600-39100

Grade Pay

 Minimum recommended @ entry level by 7th CPC (Rs) in the Pay matrix Multiplication factor by VII th pay Commission
5400 56100  10.38times
6600 67700 (difference +11600) 10.25
7600 78800(difference +11100) 10.36
For a GP of Rs1200/- difference the hike proposed is Rs11600/- and for another Rs1000/- GP increase the increase given by CPC is Rs 11100/-

 

PB IV      Rs 37400-67000

Grade Pay

 Minimum recommended @ entry level by 7th CPC (Rs)in the Pay matrix Multiplication factor by VII th pay Commission
8700 118500(difference  +39700)  13.62 times
8900 131100 (difference +12600) 14.73
10000 144200(difference +13100) 14.42
For a GP increase of Rs1100/- the CPC proposed a hike of Rs39700/- and for a GP difference of Rs200/- the CPC recommended a increase of Rs12600/- and for a GP increase of Rs1100/- the CPC recommended a hike of Rs13100/-

It will easily understood the members of VII th Pay commission done fixation and recommendation quite irrationally without any uniformity in a whimsical manner. If 14 times multiplication is awarded to all the staff uniformly Min.Basic will be Rs1800* 14 = 25200/-for entry level staff. Kindly publish this in your website.

Kindly fight for justice.
Thanking you Sir,

Yours sincerely
Dr.Hameed
