Estimate your revised salary under the 8th Pay Commission.

What is the 8th CPC Salary Calculator?

The 8th Pay Commission will update the salary, allowances, and benefits for government employees in India. This calculator helps you estimate your revised salary based on expected changes in the pay matrix, fitment factor, and allowances.

It requires your current Basic Pay, Fitment Factor, HRA category, DA percentage, and Transport Allowance category to compute the revised salary.

History of Pay Commissions in India

India has had several Pay Commissions to revise the salary structure of government employees based on economic changes, inflation, and cost of living.

What is Fitment Factor?

A fitment factor is a multiplier applied to your current basic pay to compute the new basic pay under a new Pay Commission.

How It Works — 8th CPC Formula

Revised Salary = (Basic Salary × Fitment Factor) + Allowances

  • Basic Salary = Your current salary under 7th CPC
  • Fitment Factor = Expected multiplier (e.g., 3.0 or 3.2)
  • Allowances = DA + HRA + TA + Other benefits

8th CPC Salary Calculation using Fitment Factor

For example, if your current basic pay is ₹50,000, the fitment factor is 3.0 and allowances are ₹20,000, then the calculation would be:

  • Revised Basic Pay = ₹50,000 × 3.0 = ₹1,50,000
  • Allowances = ₹20,000
  • Total Salary = ₹1,50,000 + ₹20,000 = ₹1,70,000

Note: This calculator provides only an estimate. The actual 8th CPC salary structure will be finalized by the Government of India once the Pay Commission is officially implemented. You can use this tool to get an idea of your revised salary based on the expected fitment factor, Dearness Allowance, HRA, and other benefits.
