The central government has increased dearness allowance (DA) by 3%. The DA has now increased from 55% to 58%. This will benefit 4.8 million government employees and 6.8 million pensioners. This move, just a day before Dussehra, will provide some relief to household budgets.
The increase will be effective from July 1, 2025. This means that arrears for July, August, and September will be paid in October’s salary. Now the question is: how much will the salaries of peons, clerks, and IAS officers increase?

Pensioners will also benefit
The pensions of approximately 6.8 million pensioners will also receive increased DA. This government move is a major relief for employees and pensioners. The salary and pension increases before Diwali will directly benefit them. Whether it’s a peon or an IAS officer, everyone’s pockets will be fuller than before October.
Given?
Dearness Allowance (DA) is provided to government employees and pensioners to maintain a better standard of living as inflation rises in the country. Its rates are determined based on the All India Consumer Price Index (AICPI), which is revised twice a year, i.e., every six months.
Revision is done twice a year
Dearness Allowance and DR pay are considered crucial components of pensions. Since the government revises these allowances twice a year—in January and July—government employees have been eagerly awaiting these revisions since July. The government has finally delivered this gift just days before Diwali.
