Government of India had released average AICPIN for the quarter Jun’20, Jul’20, Aug’20. With these average AICPIN numbers, the IDA for 3rd PRC should have been increased by 2.52 % from October 2020 for 2017 (3rd PRC) pay scales. Similarly, the IDA from October 2020 for 2nd PRC should have been increased by 5.55 % for 2007 (2nd PRC) pay scales. But, now these increments have been frezzed till 30th June 2021.

  • Aug 2020 = 338
  • Jul 2020 = 336
  • Jun 2020 = 332
  • Average of the quarter = 335.33
  • Link point = 277.33 (as on 01.01.2017)
  • Increase over Link point = 58 = [335.33- 277.33]
  • DA rate effective from 01.10.2020 = 20.91 = [(58/ 277.33) x 100]

How to calculate IDA rate for 2nd PRC or 2007 pay scale? Example:

  • Average of the quarter = 335.33
  • Link point = 126.33 (as on 01.01.2007)
  • Increase over Link point = 209 = [335.33- 126.33]
  • DA rate effective from 01.10.2020 = 165.44 = [(209/ 126.33) x 100]
