  1. Since the AICPIN remained at 301 in August, 2018 the present possibility of DA in January 2019 is 12% ie 3% hike. If AICPIN increases to 302 in September, 303 in October and 304 in Novermber and December, 2018, then the DA in January will be 13% ie. 4% hike.

  2. INR has been depriciated at least 20% i.e. from 60to 72.Therefore Government should announce 20%hike of DA on basic pay immediately as future is not visible
