New Variable Dearness Allowance Rates Set for Tripura Workers

This revision, outlined in notifications dated November 24, 2023, adjusts wages for workers in sectors such as shops and establishments, private security guards, agriculture, beedi industry, and construction. Additionally, daily rates are calculated by dividing the monthly wage by 26 and rounding up. Overtime pay remains double the regular rate. These changes ensure fair compensation adjusted to inflationary pressures.
