'Expected DA from January 2015'
It is
highly unlikely that there will be a two-digit DA hike in the next two
instalments (January 2015 and July 2015). Kindly keep in mind the fact
that despite a 6 point increase
of the AICPIN from 246 to 252 for the month of July 2014, there was
hardly an impact. Even if it increases by 3 points over the next five
months, the DA would increase to 9% only. It is impossible for AICPIN to
constantly increase in future.
We
believe that, under current circumstances, the next installment of
additional Dearness allowance from Jan 2015 hike would only be about 6
or 7%.
We have analyzed the impact of CPI number on increasing DA and given below†a table to express the†same for your information...
