A request was made by a candidate regarding salary structure of newly appointed  Postal Assistants/Sorting Assistant (PA/SA) and the details are as follows

B.P = Basic Pay

D.A = Dearness Allowance

H.R.A = House Rent Allowance

T.A = Travelling Allowance

The above are used for calculating the total salary of a Postal/Sorting Assistant

PA/SA’s are included in the Pay Scale of  5200-20200  with a grade pay of 2400.
