Dearness allowance is calculated on the basis of the current basic pay of Government employees and the dearness relief is calculated on the basis of the basic pension of Government pensioners. DA/DR is normally declared twice a year for compensating the price hike of essential commodities. DA/DR is indicating a particular percentage fixed by the Central Government. The calculation of DA/DR is based on CPI (IW) as per the recommendations of the 7th pay commission.

How to calculate DA?

DA is calculated on the percentage fixed by the Central Government from time to time as per the calculation method prescribed by the pay commission. The percentage of basic pay is Dearness Allowance. The formula for DA Calculation is common for 5th CPC, 6th CPC and 7th CPC, except the fitment factor.

DA Calculation Formula

The formula for calculating DA is given below and the method of calculation is common for 5th CPC DA, 6th CPC DA and 7th CPC DA. The linking factor is given below for calculating the percentage of DA. The linking factor is nothing but the average of 12 months of All India Consumer Price Index number from Jan 2015 to Dec 2015.

Dearness Allowance = (Average of AICPIN for the past 12 months – Fitment Factor) x 100 / Fitment Factor

7th Pay Commission DA Percentage = (Average of AICPI for the past 12 months – 261.4) x 100 / 261.4

  • 5th CPC Fitment Factor = 306.33
  • 6th CPC Fitment Factor = 115.76
  • 7th CPC Fitment Factor = 261.4
