8th Pay Commission: Central employees and pensioners have been waiting for the implementation of the 8th Pay Commission for a long time. Everyone has a question in their mind: When will the 8th Pay Commission be implemented? According to special sources, the 8th Pay Commission can be implemented in the year 2026. However, the government has not yet opened its cards on this.
The obstacle to the implementation of the 8th Pay Commission soon is that it has not been formed yet. The lack of formation indicates a delay. As soon as the 8th Pay Commission is implemented, there may be a strong increase in the salary of central employees, which will prove to be a big gift. However, nothing can be said officially right now. You can know in detail below how much the salary of the employees will increase.
How much will the salary increase?
The measure of increasing the salary of all central employees is the fitment factor. The proposed fitment factor is likely to be up to 2.86. Due to this, the basic salary of level-2 employees is likely to increase by about 50 per cent. The minimum salary of central employees is expected to increase from Rs 18000 to Rs 40,000.
The Modi government had approved the formation of the 8th Pay Commission on 16 January 2025. Union Minister Ashwini had conveyed this information to the people through the media. Since then, the government has not been able to form a committee of the new pay commission, which everyone is waiting for.
How much increase in salary is expected?
If the central government implements the recommendations of the 8th Pay Commission, then the basic salary of the employees can be increased by 20 per cent to 2 per cent. Along with this, there is a possibility of an increase in DA HRA and other allowances.
Along with this, it is believed that there may be a monthly increase of Rs 8000 to Rs 15000 in the salary of employees with general grade pay. The question in everyone’s mind is whether the government will form the new pay commission in the year 2025 itself. A new pay commission has been implemented in the country every ten years.
