After raising the dearness allowance by 3%, the total DA will be 34%, resulting in a total yearly dearness allowance of Rs 73,440 on a basic salary of Rs 18,000. However, when it comes to the difference, the annual income rise will be Rs 6,480. As an example, consider the following calculation:
Calculation on minimum basic salary
Basic salary of employee Rs 18,000
New dearness allowance (34%) Rs 6120/month
Dearness allowance so far (31%) Rs 5580/month
How much dearness allowance increased 6120- 5580 = Rs 540/month
Increase in annual salary 540X12 = Rs 6,480
Calculation on maximum basic salary
Basic salary of the employee Rs 56900
New dearness allowance (34%) Rs 19346 / month
Dearness allowance so far (31%) Rs 17639 / month
How much dearness allowance increased 19346-17639 = 1,707 Rs/month
Increase in annual salary 1,707 X12 = Rs 20,484.
