NCPA Employees to Receive Salary Increase and Annual Bonus Under New Wage Agreement
The National Centre for the Performing Arts (NCPA) and the BJP-backed Akhil Bharatiya Kamgar Karmachari Sangh, led by Ravindra Chavan, have agreed on a four-year wage settlement starting January 2025. Employees will receive a monthly salary increase of Rs 7,250 and an annual bonus of Rs 50,000. This marks the third wage revision between the union and NCPA management. The union claims to have unified previous workers' groups and emerged as the sole certified union after legal proceedings. The agreement aims to improve worker welfare and service conditions.
