SNEA noted the discrimination in enhancement of TA/DA Rates for DGM and above level officers as per the latest rates and continuing the TA /DA Rates  for AGM and below level officers at the rates last approved in Year 2002 and has continuously demanded for clearing this discrimination.  Copy<<<>>

Accordingly, the committee for enhancement of TA/DA was constituted last year and Committee also has given positive recommendations in July 2026 and thereafter the report was processed for approval of BSNL MC and Board, and this order is issued after approval of BSNL Board.

Now the rates are as good as doubled and this is great relief to the executives who have to tour for different office works locally as well as other stations. This is fulfilment of one of the commitments of SNEA and we continue our efforts to full all commitments made to BSNL Executives.   

SNEA CHQ conveys sincere thanks and gratitude to  Shri. A. Robert J. Ravi, CMD BSNL, Dr. Kalyan Sagar Nippani, Director HR, All Board of Directors, Shri. S. P Singh, PGM Estt  BSNL, All the Committee members  and the team of officers in Estt Section BSNL CO for considering the request of SNEA for enhancement of TA/DA Rates for AGM and below level officers at par with DGM and above level officers and clearing this discrimination going on for last 26 years.

We are aware that these enhanced rates are also not sufficient to meet the expenditure on travelling as per the market requirements as these reviewed in view of the prevailing market rates and the financial position of the BSNL and SNEA will continue its efforts to enhance it as per the practical requirement of Executives.
