PB is usually paid in late March every year.

The annual increment ("merit increment" or MI) is based on several factors including: subgrade, distance away from salary ceiling of subgrade, performance grade for the previous work year, whether the officer was promoted the previous October, Singapore's economic performance/outlook, and perhaps some other hidden factors.

MI used to average around 3% for the average performer, but during COVID, MIs were suppressed noticeably. It doesn't seem like it will ever return back to what it used to be, but only HR insiders will know for sure.
