Assuming a fitment factor of 2.0:
Current: Basic Rs 76,500 + DA Rs 44,370 + HRA Rs 22,950 = Rs 1,43,820
After 8th CPC: Basic Rs 1,53,000 + HRA Rs 41,310 = Rs 1,94,310
Monthly arrear without HRA: Rs 32,131
Monthly arrear with HRA: Rs 50,490
This example shows the significant difference HRA inclusion makes in arrear calculations.
