Accordingly, starting with the salary for the month of August , perks and allowances shall now be payable a 15.75 per cent of the basic pay, it added.
 
The DMRC also stated that all grants of fresh advances for house building advance, multipurpose advance, laptop advance and festival advance will be kept on hold till further order.
 
"However, advances already sanctioned shall continue to be disbursed. The advances sought for medical treatment, TA, DA and composite transfer grant (CTG) will continue to be granted to facilitate the employees," the DMRC said.
