EXPECTED DA FOR THE OF JANUARY

With the availability of All-India Average Consumer Price Index Numbers for Industrial Workers from July to November 2011, It is almost certain that Central workers are going to get another 7% D.A. from January 2012.

The Index No.s from July to November is given below for ready reference.
193 194 197 198 199
If the Index No. is in between 192 and 204 for he month of December 2011[Data to be published by Labour Bureau on 31.01.2012], the Dearness Allowance will be same - 7%
So all probabilities keeping in mind it can be safely predicted that D.A. from January 2012 will be 65% of pay.
