Where the second installment of Dearness Allowance arrears will come, as well as the revised HRA is also likely to be added to the salary. So today apart from DA, HRA will also be discussed. In fact, it was made clear by the central government whenever the DA exceeds 25%, the HRA will be auto changed. DA increased to 28 per cent in July, due to which HRA has increased to 27 per cent. The special thing is that those who get the highest basic will get more than 20 thousand rupees on an annual basis.
HRA of 27 percent

The HRA has been fixed at 27 per cent, 18 per cent and 9 per cent, depending on the category of the city. The increase in this is also applicable with DA from July 1, 2021. Let us tell you that 27 percent HRA will be given to the employees living in X category city, 18 percent to Y category city and 9 percent to the employees living in Z category city.

while on the other hand, many things are still coming out on DA. In fact, after the arrival of the AICPI data, there is talk of increasing the inflation allowance again. Which is expected to increase from 28 percent to 31 percent. On which intensive brainstorming is also going on by the government. On the other hand, there is a lot of speculation about the arrears of 18 months. According to the information, PM Narendra Modi can take his decision in this matter anytime.
