Good news has been revealed about the 8th Pay Commission for central employees. This time the salary of employees in the Pay Commission is expected to have a big boom. According to the report, the new Pay Commission can be implemented from 1 January 2026, in which the possibility of merging dearness allowances (DA) in the basic salary is also being expressed. In addition, there may also be significant changes in the fitment factor and house rent allowance (HRA).
HRRA changes: HRA rates are revised with each new pay commission. According to the city in the 6th Pay Commission, HRA rates were from 10% to 30%, which were also amended in the 7th Pay Commission. Now the rates of HRA can be changed again in the 8th Pay Commission. HRA is determined on the basis of basic salary and DA.
HRRA’s new calculation: If the Fitment Factor 1.92 is determined in the 8th Pay Commission, then the salary of a basic salary of Rs 30,000 will increase to Rs 57,600. Based on this increased basic salary, HRA will be calculated, which will give more benefits to the employees.
Due to amendment in HRA:
- Increasing inflation and increase in fares
- Changes in the structure of basic salary
- Changes in the category of cities from time to time
Other possible changes: There is also a possibility of amendment of various allowances and facilities to employees under the 8th Pay Commission. This amendment can be made based on the demands, inflation, and changes in the categories of cities according to time. Currently, HRA rates are 30%, 20% and 10%, which may increase in the upcoming commission. However, the government has not yet made any official announcement in this regard.
