It had been increased from 12 per cent to 17 per cent.
“The Dearness Relief (TI) on pension/family pension shall be paid to the state government pensioners/family pensioners at the same rate of 5% on the revised basic pension/family pension with effect from July 1, 2019,” a notification stated on Thursday.
