Kerala Cabinet approves 10th pay commission proposals

Kerala Chief Minister Oommen Chandy said that the revised pay scales will be implemented from February 1 with retrospective effect from July 1, 2014.

The revision will be accompanied by a hike in dearness allowance of three per cent from January 1, 2015, and six per cent from July 1, 2015, thereby clearing all DA arrears to date. 

 The pay and pension arrears will be distributed in four half-yearly installments from April 1, 2017, and will carry the same interest as provident fund deposits
