Indian Railways raised pay for train staff based on distance traveled, effective Jan. 1, 2024, to match rising costs.
Indian Railways has increased kilometrage and ALK allowances for running staff, effective January 1, 2024, following a 50% Dearness Allowance hike.
The change, under the Railway Services (Revised Pay) Rules, 2016, benefits thousands of loco pilots, guards, firemen, and other operational staff across all train types.
Revised rates provide higher compensation per 100 km for locomotive staff and per 160 km for traffic staff, with no changes to eligibility.
The update aims to align pay with rising living costs and improve welfare for frontline workers essential to India’s rail network.
