The
new Consumer Price Index (CPI) has been changed with effect from 1/1/2015.
The net effect will be felt when the CPI is calculated for the Jan 2015 in Feb
2015. The food and beverages has been reduced from 47.86 to 45.86 % , no weightage for rural housing and importantly
the miscellaneous has been increased from 26.31 to 28.32 %. This will reduce
the CPI and thereby the DA percentage will be also being affected marginally.
