Salary & Allowances

Pay revision, DA orders and arrears, annual increments, leave surrender and the allowances — HRA, TA and more — that make up the government pay packet.

When a DA order or pay revision is issued, the questions are always the same: how much is the arrear, from which month, and how do I get it processed in SPARK before the bill deadline. This desk answers those.

What this desk covers

  • DA / DR revision orders — reading the GO and calculating the arrear
  • Annual increment and pay fixation on promotion
  • Earned leave surrender: eligibility, the 300-day cap and the application
  • HRA, TA, and special allowances — rates and conditions
  • Processing arrear bills in SPARK step by step
