8th Pay Commission salary calculator

Estimate your new basic pay and monthly salary under the 8th Pay Commission.

How this calculator works

Your new basic pay is your current 7th CPC basic pay multiplied by the fitment factor, rounded to the nearest ₹100. The government has not announced the fitment factor yet. Most estimates fall between 1.92 and 2.86; the 7th Pay Commission used 2.57. Change the factor to see different outcomes.

When a new pay commission starts, DA is usually merged and starts again at 0%. Under the 7th CPC, HRA was 24%, 16% and 8% for X, Y and Z cities at the start, rising to 30/20/10% once DA crossed 50%. We use the same pattern here.

Things to keep in mind

  • This is an estimate, not an official figure.
  • Transport allowance, NPS/GPF deductions and income tax are not included.
  • The 8th Pay Commission report is expected in 2027.
