Key Components

  • Basic Pay: Base monthly salary without allowances.
  • Current DA Rate (%): Applicable DA rate (e.g., 53%).
  • Previous DA Rate (%): Previous rate for comparing increment.
  • Employee Type: Central Govt / State Govt / PSU.
  • City Classification: X, Y, or Z class for HRA computation.

How It Works

The calculator uses the following formulas:

  • DA Amount: Basic Pay × DA Rate / 100
  • HRA (X cities): 27% or 30% of Basic (when DA > 50%)
  • HRA (Y cities): 18% or 20% of Basic (when DA > 50%)
  • HRA (Z cities): 9% or 10% of Basic (when DA > 50%)
  • Revised Gross: Basic + DA + HRA
