In Brief: Understanding the Arrear
According to Notification 3556-F(P2), DA arrears from April 1, 2008, to December 31, 2015, will be paid in a single instalment. The state specifies calculations based on AICPI (100% neutralisation).
Interestingly, between 2008 and 2010, the West Bengal government actually paid a *higher* DA percentage than both the AICPI and WBCPI index demanded. Therefore, no positive arrears are generated for those specific initial years (2008-2011). Positive arrears primarily accumulate from 2012 onwards when the Central/AICPI index heavily outpaced the State DA rates.
AICPI vs. WBCPI: Why old documents show “-16,162”
You might have seen historical charts circulated by unions showing a negative arrear of exactly -16,162 for a Basic Pension of 15,255 during 2008–2011. Here is why that happens:
- The WBCPI Formula (Historical): The old calculations were based on the West Bengal Consumer Price Index (WBCPI), which changed multiple times a year. When compared to what WB actually paid (which was higher), it resulted in a net negative figure of -16,162.
- The AICPI Formula (New SC Order): The recent judgment and Memo 3556-F mandate using the All-India CPI (AICPI), updated annually. Both formulas result in a "BIG ZERO" (no positive arrear) for the 2008-2011 period.
