8th Pay Commission - How Much Increase In Salary, Pension, Dearness Allowance (DA) ?

In addition to benefiting central government employees, the 8th Pay Commission is expected to spur consumer spending

Just before the Union Budget is presented, the government has approved the 8th Pay Commission. It is set to benefit nearly 5 million (50 lakh) central government employees and approximately 6.5 million (65 lakh) pensioners across all ranks. Let us take a look at some of the key benefits of the 8th Pay Commission.

What is Fitment Factor?

Before looking into the hike in salaries and other benefits, it is important to understand how salaries and pension are calculated for central government employees. At the core of this assessment is the Fitment Factor. This is used for calculating any increase in the basic salary and pension amount for central government employees. The Fitment Factor is the primary tool used by the Pay Commission. To calculate the new pay package, the current pay is multiplied by the Fitment Factor.

Various aspects are considered for deriving the Fitment Factor. For example, it includes things like employee demands and requirements, inflation rate and debt burden on the government. In the 7th Pay Commission, the Fitment Factor was calculated at 2.57.

What will be Fitment Factor for 8th Pay Commission?

The government has not yet announced the Fitment Factor under the 8th Pay Commission. It will be announced after the value is finalized by the 8th Pay Commission. But estimates indicate that the Fitment Factor in 8th Pay Commission could go up to 2.86. That means that the basic salary of central government employees could actually triple under the 8th Pay Commission.

How much salary increase in 8th Pay Commission?

Let us understand the salary increase under 8th Pay Commission with an example. Suppose a government employee is getting Rs 40,000 as basic salary. Now, if the Fitment Factor is 2.5 (conservative estimate), the new salary amount will be Rs 40,000 x 2.5 = Rs 1 lakh. That is a massive boost in the basic salary amount. Government employees will be waiting eagerly for the 8th Pay Commission to announce the Fitment Factor.

How much increase in pension in 8th Pay Commission?

The hike in pension is expected to be around the same as the increase in salary. That means a Fitment Factor in the range of 2.5 to 2.8. For example, let us assume the current monthly pension of Rs 10,000. If the Fitment Factor is 2.5, the pension will increase to Rs 25,000 (10000 x 2.5).

How much increase in dearness allowance (DA) in 8th Pay Commission?

The dearness allowance (DA) is calculated as a percentage of the basic pay. As of now, the dearness allowance for government employees is 53%. Since salaries are set to increase under the 8th Pay Commission, the dearness allowance or DA will also increase. Both existing employees and pensioners will benefit.

When will the 8th Pay Commission be implemented?

The Pay Commission reviews the pay package of government employees after every 10 years. Keeping that in mind, it is likely that the 8th Pay Commission will come into effect from 1st January, 2026.

Understanding the 8th Pay Commission Salary Structure

The 8th Pay Commission is a highly anticipated development for government employees in India, aimed at addressing rising living costs and improving salary structures. As of January 17, 2025, discussions around the commission have gained momentum, with expectations of significant salary increases across various pay levels.

Key Changes in Salary Structure

The 8th Pay Commission proposes a substantial increase in the basic salaries of government employees. The minimum salary is projected to rise from ₹18,000 to ₹21,600 for Level 1 employees, reflecting a commitment to enhance the living standards of civil servants. Other levels are also expected to see similar percentage increases, which could range from approximately 20% to over 30%.For instance, Level 2 employees might see their salaries rise from ₹19,900 to around ₹23,880, while Level 3 salaries could increase from ₹21,700 to approximately ₹26,040. Higher levels will also experience significant adjustments, with salaries for Level 14 and Level 15 employees potentially reaching ₹1,73,040 and ₹2,18,400 respectively.

Implications for Government Employees

The proposed changes aim to enhance the financial well-being of over one crore government employees in India. With these increases in basic salary, employees can expect improved take-home pay. Additionally, pensioners are likely to see similar increases in their pensions, which will help them cope with inflation and rising living costs.

Challenges Ahead

Despite the optimistic projections regarding salary hikes under the 8th Pay Commission, there are challenges that the government must navigate. Balancing employee demands with fiscal constraints will be crucial. The implementation of the commission is expected to place a financial burden on the government budget; hence careful planning and execution will be necessary to ensure sustainability.

Conclusion

The anticipation surrounding the 8th Pay Commission reflects a broader concern for public sector workers' welfare and economic stability. As discussions continue and more details emerge regarding implementation timelines and specific policies, government employees remain hopeful for a favorable outcome that acknowledges their contributions while addressing inflationary pressures. The final decisions will play a pivotal role in shaping the financial landscape for civil servants in India moving forward.-Written By Hexahome

Cabinet Approves Constitution of 8th Pay Commission: Central Government Employees Await Pay Hike

In a significant move, the Union Cabinet has approved the constitution of the 8th Pay Commission, paving the way for a potential salary hike for central government employees and pensioners. The decision marks the start of a comprehensive review of pay structures, allowances, and other benefits, expected to affect over 50 lakh employees and pensioners.

The recommendations of the 8th Pay Commission are anticipated to come into effect from January 1, 2026, following the schedule observed in previous pay revisions. The 7th Pay Commission, chaired by A.K. Mathur, submitted its report on November 19, 2015, with its recommendations being implemented on January 1, 2016.

The 8th Pay Commission is expected to introduce significant revisions in basic pay scales, Dearness Allowance (DA), and Dearness Relief (DR) for pensioners. Such revisions are crucial as they ensure salaries and pensions remain aligned with inflation and economic conditions.

Central government employees are eagerly awaiting details of the proposed changes, hoping for substantial improvements in their pay structure. The revision will also play a pivotal role in boosting disposable incomes, potentially driving consumer spending and economic growth.

While the specifics of the 8th Pay Commission's mandate are yet to be disclosed, experts believe it may introduce structural changes to modernize salary frameworks and make them more competitive. It is also expected to address issues related to disparity in pay and allowances across different categories of employees.

The government’s decision comes at a time when employees are grappling with rising inflation, making the announcement a welcome relief. Pensioners, too, are hopeful for increased DR benefits to enhance their financial security.

The 8th Pay Commission's recommendations will not only affect central government employees but may also influence state governments, as they often align their pay scales with central guidelines.

The Central government employees will no longer get their salary and allowances ‘revised’ as per the recommendations of a pay commission in future as the Centre has “almost” decided not to form any pay commission in future. A top official in the Finance Ministry, on condition of anonymity, has confirmed that no new Pay Commission would be formed to increase salaries and allowances of the central government employees. “The government is determined to take strong decision in this regard,” The Sen Times quoted the official as saying. As per reports, the government is considering an alternative for increasing salaries and allowances of the central government employees and pensioners in future instead of forming any 8th Pay Commission. The government is likely to follow the instructions of the 7th Pay Commission Chairman Justice A K Mathur who was earlier of the view that the central government employees’ salary be revised every year taking into account the available data and price index.  Moreover, the 7th Pay Commission recommended reviewing the pay matrix periodically instead of waiting for long 10 years to revise the salary and allowances. The commission also suggested the usage of Aykroyd formula for the hike in pay of the central government employees. It is worth mentioning that Aykroyd formula is attributed to Dr Aykroyd who worked on nutrition for nearly 30 years and was director of the Nutrition Division, Food and Agriculture Organisation, United Nations. In 1935, he was appointed director of the government’s nutritional research centre in India. Aykroyd formula takes into account the three basic needs of human being while considering pay hike and salary structure. Earlier this month, Minister of State for Finance P Radhakrishnan had made a statement in the Lok Sabha that no formation of Pay Commission in future is not on government radar for the time being and the Finance Minister Arun Jaitley would declare it later. However, the official didn’t confirm what made the minister to say those lines and if Jaitley would actually make any such announcement in the near future. Meanwhile, government employees are happy about the annual increase in pay but at the same time confused over the fact that the yearly increase would be a herculean task for the government and any irregularity and glitch in the whole process would ultimately hit their financial position.

  CENTRAL GOVT. HAS DECIDED NOT TO FORM ANY PAY COMMISSION IN FUTURE : The Central government employees will no longer get their salary and allowances ‘revised’ as per the recommendations of a pay commission in future as the Centre has “almost” decided not to form any pay commission in future.
