कैबिनेट के द्वारा केंद्रीय कर्मचारियों के महंगाई भत्ता में 4% की वृद्धि की गई जिससे कर्मचारी के वेतन में वृद्धि के साथ-साथ उन्हें मिलने वाला अन्य भर्तो में भी वृद्धि हो गई है। महंगाई भत्ता में 4% प्रीति के के साथ ही अब कर्मचारियों को मिलने वाला महंगाई भत्ता बढ़कर 50% हो गया है। सातवें वेतन आयोग के अनुसार जब महंगाई भत्ता के 50% होने पर कर्मचारियों को मिलने वाले CEA, HRA & TA के अलावा कुछ अन्य भक्तों में 25% की वृद्धि हो जाएगी, इससे कर्मचारियों के वेतन में वृद्धि होगी।
