All the administrative departments and ministries of the Government of India have been instructed that this will be implemented for the officers of all CPSEs. Under this notification, this rule will be applicable for the administrative control of all CPSEs.
Dearness allowance increases from time to time
The thing to keep in mind is that the Central Government and the State Governments keep increasing the DA of their employees and pensioners from time to time so that they can compete with the rising inflation. Along with increasing the cost of living of its employees, the government keeps on increasing the dearness allowance of its employees.
