How to Calculate Dearness Allowance (DA)?
Central government employees and pensioners have their Dearness Allowance computed in accordance with the directives established by the 7th Pay Commission. The procedure follows a simple approach, as delineated in the formula below, accompanied by a step-by-step explanation for carrying out the computation.
Dearness Allowance (DA) = (Current Index-Average Index) / Average Index X 100
Determining the Dearness Allowance (DA) hinges on two pivotal elements. The initial element encompasses the Current Consumer Price Index, a monthly publication by the Labour Bureau. Meanwhile, the second element involves the Average Consumer Price Index, symbolizing the mean index from the preceding CPI (IW) BY-2001 period.
The shift of the base year for the CPI index occurred in September 2020, transitioning from 2001 to 2016. The initial phase in computing the Dearness Allowance (DA) entails harmonizing the AICPIN data with the updated base year before initiating the calculation process.

AICPIN: Importance of Calculating DA Explained
Determining the Expected Dearness Allowance (DA) involves a simple process that relies on the Consumer Price Index (CPI) data over the last 12 months. This data is essential for applying the formula set by the 7th Pay Commission, which has been active since 2016.
- To compute the Dearness Allowance (DA) for January 2024, it is necessary to examine the All India Consumer Price Index for Industrial Workers (AICPIN) data from January 2023 to December 2023, spanning a year.
- The average of this data needs to be calculated. Then, using the provided Fitment Factor of 261.42, the surplus value of the Fitment Factor must be determined.
- The resulting number, rounded to the nearest whole number, indicates the percentage of Dearness Allowance (DA).
