125% Dearness Allowance from January 2016 is confirmed now after
releasing of December, 2015 AICPIN, which was already speculated by Seventh Pay
Commission and was taken as fitment factor for determination of new pay matrix.
As per Labour Bureau Press Release the All-India CPI-IW for
December, 2015 decreased by 1 point and pegged at 269 (two hundred and sixty
nine). From this decrease the Expected Dearness Allowance from Jan, 2016
is confirm to stand at 125%. The Dearness Allowance from Jan, 2016 is
important factor of pay determination in 7th CPC, which is due to implement
with effect from 01.01.2016. The recommendations of 7th CPC has taken the
expected DA @ 125% for the purpose of minimum pay determination and the fitment
factor for new pay structure. Now the speculation of this DA by 7th CPC is
correct and only minimum wages will be the main factor to increase the Fitment
Factor from 2.57, which is main demand of employees. The line of
recommendations of 7th CPC regarding
Fitment
5.1.27 The starting point for the first level of the matrix has
been set at Rs.18,000. This corresponds to the starting pay of Rs. 7,000, which
is the beginning of PB-1 viz., Rs.5,200 + GP 1800, which prevailed on
01.01.2006, the date of implementation of the VI CPC recommendations. Hence the
starting point now proposed is 2.57 times of what was prevailing on 01.01.2006.
This fitment factor of 2.57 is being proposed to be applied uniformly for all
employees. It includes a factor of 2.25 on account of DA neutralisation,
assuming that the rate of Dearness Allowance would be 125 percent at the time
of implementation of the new pay. Accordingly, the actual raise/fitment being
recommended is 14.29 percent.
