Dear Brother,
Sub: Dearness Allowance w.e.f. 01-07-2015 – reg.

The all India Consumer price index for March 2015 was 254 and if it remains as it is for next three (3) months or if it rises to 256, the average is expected to be 253. Consquently, the Dearness Allowance increase is likely to be 118% of pay from July 2015.
