2024 Budget DA Hike for Central Employees: The dates of the Lok Sabha elections, which are anticipated to be published between April and May of next year and coincide with the announcement of the code of conduct, might coincide with the announcement of the DA rates for the next fiscal year, or during the months of February and March. will be put into action. The federal government won't be able to raise DA after this.


Budget 2024: Increase in Central Employee DA: The year 2024 will provide numerous presents for central personnel and pensioners, just as the year 2023 did. In the new year, Dearness Allowance (DA) for workers and Dearness Relief (DR) for pensioners may rise by 4 percent, according to media sources. This might result in a massive boost in pay and benefits. AICPI data has been made available for the July–October period, based on estimates made public by the Labor Ministry. It won't be evident how much DA will rise in the next year until the data from November and December comes in. It is thought that the administration would declare a budgetary rise in DA.


In the next year, government workers' salaries will rise.


Employees at Central get 46% DA. This is in effect from July 2023 until December 2023. January 2024 will see the next increase in DA, which is anticipated to be announced around Holi. Based on AICPI index half-yearly data, the DA and DR rates of employees-pensioners are updated in January and July. The DA was raised by 8% overall in 2023, which included increases in January and July. The next DA revision is now scheduled for 2024, and it will be based on data from the AICPI index for the months of July through December of 2023.


DA may rise to 50% in the next year.


In reality, the Labor Ministry announced the October AICPI index statistics on November 30. The index reached 138.4 points, with a DA score that was over 49%, after a 0.9 point gain. It is anticipated that in the next year, DA would rise by 4% or 5%. But November and December's numbers are still pending, so it's unclear how much DA will rise in 2024 until then. Following the increase in November and December numbers, if the DA score rises to 50% or higher, an additional 4% increase will bring the DA score to 50%. Under such circumstances, the workers' salaries will be adjusted. According to the Central Government's 7th Pay Commission, DA would be added to the base wage whenever it reaches 50%. After then, the DA computation will begin at zero.


The budget may include an announcement.


The dates of the Lok Sabha elections, which will take place in April and May of next year and during which the code of conduct will also take effect, may be published during the budgetary process or in the months of February and March. The federal government won't be able to raise DA after this. In an attempt to appease central workers, it is thought that the Modi administration may decide on DA during the budget session itself. A further 4% rise in DA would make it 50%, and more than 48 lakh central workers and 68 lakh pensioners will be eligible to get its benefits.
