The Dearness Allowance (DA) is a cost of living adjustment allowance paid to Government employees, Public sector employees (PSU)and pensioners in India. Dearness Allowance is calculated as a percentage of an Individual's basic salary to mitigate the impact of inflation on people.
In simple words, it is an amount of money that is added to a person's basic pay because of risingprices and other costs. Whenever there is inflation in the country, DA will increase and whenever there is deflation, DA will decrease.
