Understanding the 8th Pay Commission

The 8th Pay Commission is the upcoming revision of salaries and pensions for central government employees in India. This commission, implemented approximately every 10 years, aims to adjust salaries to account for inflation and changing economic conditions.

How the Calculator Works

Net Salary = (Basic Pay × Fitment Factor) + DA + HRA

Where DA is calculated as 55% of the new basic pay, and HRA percentage varies based on your city classification.

Key Changes Expected

The 8th Pay Commission is expected to bring:

  • Fitment factor increase to approximately 2.85
  • Merger of Dearness Allowance with basic pay
  • Revised HRA and Travel Allowance calculations
  • Enhanced pension benefits for retirees

Who Should Use This Calculator

This calculator is designed for:

  • Central government employees
  • State government employees (where pay commission is adopted)
  • Government pensioners
  • Anyone interested in understanding the potential impact of the 8th Pay Commission
