Pay details

Allowances

Besides basic pay, a Constable gets the allowances that government rules allow, such as Dearness Allowance (DA), House Rent Allowance (HRA) or government housing, and Transport Allowance. DA is revised from time to time, so the take-home pay changes over the years. The notification gives only the pay level and scale, not an in-hand figure.

Why the job is popular

• Posting in Delhi: the job is with the police force of the national capital.
• Job security: it is a permanent government post with regular pay increases.
• Career growth: Constables can rise to Head Constable, Assistant Sub-Inspector and higher ranks under Delhi Police promotion rules.
• Later age relaxation: serving Delhi Police staff get higher age limits in later Delhi Police recruitment exams. For example, departmental candidates could apply for the 2025 Constable exam up to 40 years (UR/EWS).
