Introduction
The 8th Pay Commission is expected to be constituted soon, bringing significant changes to the salary structure of central government employees. This article provides an overview of what to expect and how you can prepare for the upcoming changes.
Expected Fitment Factor
The fitment factor is a crucial component that determines the increase in basic pay. While the 7th CPC had a fitment factor of 2.57, media reports suggest the 8th CPC might have a fitment factor closer to 3.0 or even higher. This would result in a substantial salary hike.
