b) According to Associated Chambers of Commerce of India (Assocham) the prices of essential commodities have risen by 85 % from 1.1.2006 to 1.1.2012, Hence DA should have been 85%.

c) Above According to Office of the Economic advisor to Government of India, Ministry of Commerce vide their web site (http://eaindustry.nic.in/wpi_data_display/display_data.asp ) Hence the Government in its own web site has admitted that whole sale prices of essential commodities have increased by over 70%. for 4 years.
