With current Dearness Allowance at 53 percent (18,762 INR), House Rent Allowance varies by city classification: 27 percent for X, 18 percent for Y, and 9 percent for Z cities. Transport Allowance is provided based on the grade pay and city tier. The Gross Monthly Salary for a Level 6 officer in a Y-class city approximates 60,000 to 65,000 INR.
