WHAT WILL BE THE DIFFERENCE IN BASIC PAY AND DA AFTER 50% DA MERGER ?
An Estimation in respect of entry level pay in pay band applicable to Four Grade Pay which will fall in to each of four 6CPC revised Pay Scales PB-1, PB-2, PB-3, and PB-4
While all Central Government Employees across India are eagerly awaiting 50% DA Merger with Pay, we have attempted to estimate the difference in basic pay and DA after 50% DA Merger forentry level pay in pay band applicable to Four Cadres with Grade Pay Rs.2400, Rs. 4200, Rs.5400 and Rs. 8700/-
Basis for Estimating difference in Basic Pay and DA after 50% DA Merger
In 2004, when 50% DA Merger was made before implementation of 6th Pay Commission Report, applicable DA prior to DA merger was 61%. Then a new pay called Dearness Pay was created by taking 50% of basic pay and new DA @ 11% was calculated on basic pay and dearness pay as detailed below
| Basic Pay (Rs) | DP | Total BP | DA @ 11% |
| 6500 | 3250 | 9750 | 1073 |
CALCULATION OF DIFFERENCE IN BASIC PAY AND DA FOR PROPOSED 50% DA MERGER
Note: 1. This is only an estimation. Order for DA merger is yet to be issued by Government. Applicability and actual benefit will be known only after issue of formal orders for 50% DA merger.
2. We have taken in to account only the pay in pay band and grade pay for additional benefit out of DA merger. The impact of DA merger can also be calculated in respect of HRA and TA.
3. As DA eligibility as on 01.01.2014 is 100%, we have estimated the DA after 50% DA merger as on 01.01.2014 as 50%. The actual DA granted by Government from 01.01.2014 will be known only after issue of DA orders with effect from 01.01.2014.
4. We have estimated difference in Basic Pay and DA in respect of entry level pay in pay band applicable to Four Grade Pays Viz., Rs.2400, Rs.4200, Rs. 5400 and Rs. 8700, which will fall in to 6CPC revised Pay Scales PB-1, PB-2, PB-3, and PB-4 respectively. Similarly, in respect of other grade pay in 6CPC revised pay scales also difference in Basic Pay and DA on account of 50% DA merger can be calculated

Shekhar Chandra Joshi says
The calculation sheets on 50% merger of DA are lengthy solutions. As a shortcut calculation we should go for 25% NET INCREASE in basic pay on merger of 50% DA.
For example if basic + grade pay is 10000, net increase will be 2500 (ie 25% of total basic pay).
How simple.
