Dear friends,
CPI for July 2013 was a high jump to 235. CPI for August 2013 galloped to 237. For September 2013, CPI stood at 238. Employees got eligibility for 48 slabs of DA. CPI for Oct 2013 shot up again to 241. Latest, for November 2013, CPI(IW)2001 rises to 243.
Assuming 244 for December 2013, for pensioners, DR slabs can be 48+34 = 82 slabs
If December CPI climbs to 245, DR slabs can be 48+36 = 84 slabs.
This is not a New Year gift but only a New Year announcement
Final & correct DR slabs will be announced on 31st January 2014, when actual CPI Dec 2013 will be known.
Greetings for a Happy & Healthy, Peaceful & Prosperous New Year
May the Hours & the Days & the Weeks unite in making the New Year 2014 especially Bright & Brilliant.
