HOW TO CALCULATE DEARNESS ALLOWANCE... Every month government has announced All India Consumer Price Index for Industrial workers, according to the price of commodities. Month & year Price Index with base year 2001 = 100 July 2010 178 August 2010 178 September 2010 179 October 2010 181 November 2010 182 December 2010 185 Jan 2011 188 Feb 2011 185 March 2011 185 April 2011 186 May 2011 187 June 2011 187 (Assumed) (considering MKT situation) Total 2201/12 Average 183.416 3. With effect from 01.01.2006, Dearness allowance is granted to compensate the price increase above 536 points Base Year 1982=100),(115.763 points Base Year 2001=100). 4.

As per above table, the total of twelve month average price index prior to July 2011 =2199The twelve month average price index for the period as per above table.= 183.416 6.

Calculate the percentage rise by multiplying (67.653) with 100 / 115.763. It works out to 58.441 7. The fraction is to be ignored. The whole number only is to be considered. So the DA/DR admissible with effect from 1st July 2011 is 58% thus arise of 7% over 51% already being paid. 8.DA/DR with effect from 1/7/11 Average all India inflation index 183.416-115.763 = 67.653x100 divided by 115.76 = 58%

The Alphabet of Change

The Alphabet of Change

Awareness - First, become aware of what you need to change in yourself. What is preventing you from attaining contentment? What habits are blocking the way to realizing your full potential?

Belief - Many people think that a change in their personalities is extremely difficult. But in fact it is a reality that lies within your power. It might be useful to ask yourself questions such as "What has held me back from change in the past?" and "What are the stages by which I can bring change about?"

Commitment - Motivation is the key to commitment. We need to want to change, rather than feel it is a duty to ourselves. Try writing down a list of commitments in the form of statements beginning with "I will". They should come directly out of, and be connected with, your overall vision.

Discipline - We cannot change unless we are able to maintain a steady course over time. Think of each sign as a major landmark passed. Even if we find ourselves slipping into old habits, that achievement of even a little bit of change cannot be taken away.
