The 8th Pay Commission is set to review salaries of central government employees in India.
Central government employee bodies in India are urging the 8th Pay Commission to increase the annual increment rate from 3% to between 5% and 7%, citing rising expenses. Projections suggest this could lead to significant gross salary boosts for Level 10 and 12 employees.
The National Council of the Joint Consultative Machinery (NC-JCM), the main central government employee body, has suggested a 6% annual increment. Similarly, the All India Defence Employees' Federation (AIDEF) and the Federation of National Postal Organisations (FNPO) also propose a 6% hike. In contrast, the All India New Pension Scheme Employees Federation (AINPSEF) recommends a 7% annual increment.
Projecting a 2.1 fitment factor and a 6% annual increment, Bankbazaar's calculations indicate that a Level 10 employee could see an additional Rs 24.27 lakh in gross pay over 10 years, while a Level 12 employee could gain over Rs 34 lakh.
These projections underscore the potential for substantial salary increases for central government staff, depending on the commission's final decision.
