JUST 2 SLABS INCREASE IN DA PAYABLE TO BANK WORKMEN/OFFICERS FOR NEXT QUARTER

The AICPIN (IW) Base 2001=100, for the month of December ’14, has been released by  Labour Bureau Govt of India, to day, which stood at 253 point which was static from last August 14.

As such, the confirmed All India average Consumer Price Index Numbers for Industrial Workers (Base 1960=100) are as follows:

Months     CPI (Base 2001=100)         CPI (Base1960=100)

October                          253                 5774.95

November                      253                 5774.95

December’14.                253                 5774.95

The average CPI as above, is 5774.Therefore the DA payable to Bank Workmen/Officers for the quarter February ’15 to April’15 will show an increase of 2 slabs at 110.10 %(From existing 109.80%)
Hefty hike for pensioners
As such the average CPI as above is 5774.Therefore the DA payable to Bank Pensioners for the next half year ie: February ’15 to July’15, will show an increase of 51 slabs.

While projecting the likely DA for next quarter, earlier we have mentioned  the hike in DA would be nominal from Feb onwards.

 Kindly note that this is only for information and  official circular from IBA in this regard  will be expected to be issued shortly.
