Expected DA January 2021

The DA calculation is carried out using the CPI-IW Index. The Dearness Allowance would certainly improve after the introduction of the current CPI-IW. For the base year 2016-100, the government is planning a new CPI-IW for industrial workers. Before June 2021, DA had stopped due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This DA hike is really necessary because of rising living costs. The impact of the new price index would have an effect only after a couple of months and will steadily raise the Dearness allowance, even for pensioners. Here we have some scenarios for a greater understanding central government employees.

Expected DA 2021 for Central Government Employees and Pensioners

Expected DA 2020

Check out with more scenarios

Scenario 1:

Let us assume AICPIN is increased by 1 Point then the expected DA will be 28% from January 2021.

Scenario 2:

Let us assume AICPIN is increased by 2 Points. then such case the expected DA will be 28.19% from January 2021.

Scenario 3:

Let us assume AICPIN is increased by 3 Points then the expected DA will be 28.38% from January 2021.

However, AICPIN is increased by 1 or 2 or 3 points, the hike almost confirmed to 28% from the above scenarios of best cases. So central government employees can expect better change in January 2021 and definitely, it may reach 28%. In the worst cases, Upcoming months if the same AICPIN value follows or if it is decreased by 1 point, then DA hike will be confirmed to 27%.
