What is DA?
Dearness Allowance (DA) is a cost-of-living adjustment allowance paid to employees to mitigate the impact of inflation on their salaries. It is calculated as a percentage of the basic salary and is revised periodically by the government or organizations based on inflation rates.
The formula for DA is:
DA = (Basic Salary × DA Rate) / 100
