7th Pay Commission: How much will be the increase in DA, know good news

7th Pay Commission: Central employees are eagerly waiting for the increase in the Dearness Allowance, i.e. DA. Everyone has a question in their mind about when the government will increase the DA for the second half of the year 2025. More than one crore employees will get to see the benefit of the DA increase, which will prove to be good news. It is believed that this time the Modi government can increase DA by 3 to 4 per cent.

If this happens, then there will be a bumper increase in the salary, due to which the salary of the employees will be seen jumping like a cheetah. On what basis is it expected to increase so much, D?. You can know its complete calculation below. By the way, the last time DA was increased by 2 per cent, which shocked the expectations of the employees.

How much can DA increase?

The DA of central employees is increased on the basis of AICPI-IW. This index was 143 in March 2025 and has reached 144 by May. If the situation remains the same in future, then a 3 per cent increase can be announced. There is a possibility of f DA increase in October. Now the rates of DA, which will be increased, will be implemented from July 1, 2025.

Earlier, the rates of A  were announced to increase and were implemented from January 1, 2025. After a 3 per cent increase, DA will reach 58 per cent. By the way, at present, central employees are getting the benefit of 5 per cent DA. Due to this, a bumper increase in the salary of the employees is considered possible.

When will the 8th Pay Commission be implemented?

Along with DA, big questions are arising in everyone’s mind about the implementation of the 8th Pay Commission. Earl, it was expected that the new Pay Commission would be implemented by January 1, 2026, but now, I hope it is completely over. The government has not yet constituted the 8th Pay Commission.

After the formation, it takes about 18 months to review. It is implemented only after preparing a complete report. Therefore, it is expected to be implemented only in the year 2027. However, nothing can be said officially right now.
