The Maharashtra government plans to release approximately ₹800 crore in dearness allowance (DA) arrears to its employees. This payment will cover outstanding dues from November and December 2025, and January 2026, and will be included in the May 2026 salary disbursements. The adjustment impacts a wide range of state employees across various departments and pay scales, including those who fall under the fifth, sixth, and seventh Central Pay Commissions.

DA Relief for Pensioners

In addition to employee arrears, the state administration has approved a 2% increase in dearness relief for retired All India Services officers. This means pensioners and family pensioners will see their dearness relief rise to 60%, effective January 1, 2026. This change aligns with recent updates to pension rules for employees under the National Pension System (NPS).
