Correct Answer: consumer price index


Solution : The correct answer is the consumer price index.

The consumer price index is used in India to calculate the Dearness Allowance (DA) for government employees. A benefit known as a Dearness Allowance (DA) is provided to employees to offset the impact of inflation on their real income and pay. The computation accounts for the effect of inflation in each employee's specific area.
