7 TH CPC NEWS

 7th Pay Commission Date for implementation
Till this moment, the oral announcement only made by the Finance Minister to constitute 7th CPC for Central Government employees. There is no further action to constitute the committee for 7th CPC and we cannot say anything about the members of the committee and when it will be constituted.
Thee is no authentic information about the date to constitute the committee for preparing recommendations for 7th CPC. However, the committee will take maximum of 24 months to submit their recommendation report to Indian Government. The implementation of the 7th CPC is likely to be implemented from 1st January, 2016 to all Central government employees.
Not only the Central government employees, all government servants including their family members are keenly watching the news about 7th Central Pay Commission, because the same procedure / recommendations of Central Pay Commission are followed by state government to their employees.
Revision of pay has been implemented by the government once in ten years through the pay commissions and an employee can get a maximum of three pay hike in entire service. So, it is very excited to know the details of modifications in all the respect of pay.
In the view of above scenario, so many questions and doubts are raising among the Central government employees…
The questions and doubts are given below for your information…
1. When will constitute the committee for 7th CPC..?

7TH CPC-Pay Scales

1 | P a g e
PROJECTED PAY STRUCTURE AFTER 7TH PAY COMMISSION
(BASED ON COMPARATIVE RISE FROM 1ST TO 6TH CPC)
Demand for setting of Seventh Pay Commission is being raised since January 2011 on completion of 5 years
since the date of effect of the sixth Pay Commission - as recommended by the last 2 Pay commissions.
Till now six pay commissions had been constituted since 1946 - to review and recommend pay structure of
central government employees.
All the six pay commissions have taken many aspects into consideration to prescribe the pay structure for
government servants.
In the first pay commission the concept of ‘living wage’ was adopted.
In second pay commission it had been reiterated that the pay structure and working condition to be crafted in a
way so as to ensure the effective functioning of government mechanism.
The third pay commission adopted the concept of ‘need based wage’
The Fourth CPC had recommended the government to constitute permanent machinery to undertake
periodical review of pay and allowances of Central Government employees, but which got never implemented.
In Fifth pay commission all federations demanded that the pay scale should be at par with the public sector.
But the pay commission didn’t accept this and told that the demand for parity with the Public Sector was
however difficult to concede as it felt that the Job content and condition of service in the government and public
sector not necessarily the same. There were essential differences between the two sectors.
The Sixth Central Pay Commission, claimed that it had not only tried to evolve a proper pay package for the
Government employees but also to make recommendations rationalizing the governmental structure with a
view to improve the delivery mechanisms for providing better services to the common man
What about seventh pay commission?
Generally every pay commission, before recommending a pay structure, analyzed all the aspects including the
economic situation of the country, financial resources of the government, comparison with the public sector,
private sector and state government pay structure etc.
Pay Determination is very complicated and sensitive task. Without any doubt every one accepts that this is
very challenging task too. In order to determine the new pay structure the pay commission has to go through
voluminous data consisting current economic condition, strength of the work force and working condition etc.
If one tries to suggest or comment about 7th pay commission pay scale or about what the seventh pay
commission pay scales, it will seem too pre-mature.
However, we observed an interesting factor which is common to all the past pay commission
recommendations, particularly in the matter of percentage of increase in the pay. Average 3 times increase in
the pay was recommended by each pay commission and it was accepted by government and
implemented (except that the rise was only about 2.26 times after 6th CPC for the scales from S4 to S23 and
nearly 3 times or more for the higher scales).
Average increase after each Pay Commission - is shown in each of the following tables.
Obviously it is simple thing, we can say it a mathematical coincidence that we have in common in all previous
pay commission, but we cannot neglect this. Because it was there, every time it is noticed that the revised pay
was approximately three times higher than its pre revised pay. Apart from all the factors which has been used
to determine the pay revision, we can use this simple formula ‘common multiplying factor’ to know the 7th pay
commission pay scale . If next pay commission prefer to continue the same running pay band and grade pay
system for seventh pay commission also, the pay structure may be like the following projected figures given
below, using common multiplying factor ‘3’. The Following is only the projected figure using common
multiplying factor ‘3’...

Short Description about Sixth Pay Commission
SIXTH PAY COMMISSION
Initially the then government refused to set up sixth pay commission to review the pay and allowances of
central government employees. The then finance minister told that there was no need to constitute next pay
commission since 50 % dearness allowance was already merged with the basic pay. The employees had
threatened to go on a nationwide strike if the government failed to set up 6th pay commission. In July 2006, the
Cabinet approved setting up of the sixth pay commission. This commission has been set up under the
Chairmanship of Justice B.N.Srikrishna with a timeframe of 18 months to submit the report. The cost of hikes in
salaries is anticipated to be about Rs. 20,000 crore for a total of 3.5 million government employees. The
commission submitted the Report to the Government on March, 24, 2008.
The Sixth Pay Commission mainly focused on removing ambiguity in respect of various pay scales and mainly
focused on reducing number of pay scales. It recommended for removal of Group-D cadre.
The Fifth CPC had compressed many scales. The number of pay scales was reduced from 51 pay scales as
on 31.12.1995 to 34 pay scales by the Fifth CPC. In many cases, this led to the promotion and feeder cadres
being placed in an identical pay scale. Although Department of Expenditure issued orders that existence of the
feeder and promotion posts in the same pay scale will not constitute an anomaly, however, these orders have
consistently been rejected by the various courts of this country. The sixth pay Commission, therefore, decided
to evolve a new system of pay scales that would effectively address most of the existing anomalies.
To remove stagnation, introduction of running pay bands for all posts in the Government presently existing in
scales below that of Rs.26,000 (fixed).
The total number of grades reduced to 20 spread across four distinct running pay bands; one Apex Scale and
another grade for the post of Cabinet Secretary/equivalent as against 35 standard pay scales existing earlier.
Four distinct running pay bands being recommended – one running band each for all categories of employees
in groups ‘B ’and ‘C ’with 2 running pay bands for Group A posts.
Annual increments to be paid in form of three percent of the total of pay in the Pay Band and the corresponding
grade pay. The date of annual increments, in all cases, is first of July. Employees completing six months and
above in the scale as on July 1 will be eligible.
The revised pay bands have been implemented retrospectively from 1.1.2006. The Fifth CPC also had
recommended implementation of the next Pay Commission’s revised pay scales from 1.1.2006. This was also
in consonance with demands of a majority of the Associations of Government employees that had sought
implementation of Sixth CPC revised pay scales from 1.1.2006.
Minimum salary at the entry level of PB-1 pay band is Rs.7000 (Rs.5200 as pay in the pay band plus Rs.1800
as grade pay). Maximum salary at the level of Secretary/equivalent is Rs.80000. The minimum: maximum ratio
1:12. The increase from V CPC to VI CPC in all grades starts from 2.4 times to 3.7 times. The increase ratio
between 5th pay commission and 6th pay commission is 1:3.

FOURTH PAY COMMISSION
The Fourth Pay Commission was constituted in June 1983 and its Chairman was Shri. P N Singhal. But the
report of 4th CPC was submitted to government in three phases within the period of four years. There from it
was started maintaining huge gap between lowest grade and highest grade as for as pay is concerned.
There was a huge difference in basic pay between lowest grade and highest grade in IV pay commission pay
scales. The basic pay of lowest grade was Rs.750, where as highest grade was Rs.9000. The pay of top most
grade was 12 times higher than the pay of Group D employee. The Fourth CPC had recommended the
government to constitute permanent machinery to undertake periodical review of pay and allowances of
Central Government employees, but which got never implemented.
FIFTH PAY COMMISSION
The Fifth Pay Commission was set up in 1994. The chairman of fifth pay commission was Justice S. Ratnavel
Pandian. The commission gave its report in January 1997. Government accepted most of the
recommendations and issued appropriate order in July 1997. The recommendations were implemented with
effect from 1-1-1996. It recommended to reduce the number of pay scale from 51 to 34. It is noted that about
93% of the employees were in Group 3 and Group 4
The minimum Starting Pay has been revised from Rs. 750/ to Rs. 2550/-. In this, the pay of 5th CPC scale
were about 3 times higher than the pay of IV CPC pay Scale. The pay scale starts from Rs.2550 and ends up
with Rs.30000. The hike of 12 times between low level and top level was also maintained in V pay commission.
The pay scale of IV pay commission and V pay commission are given below. we need all this reference for
working out to reach a formula to infer what would be the increase in VII pay commission.

First CPC to Third CPC Pay Scales
Now all the central government employees federations are demanding the govt. to set up seventh pay
commission soon. So far six pay Commissions have been set up till date from 1946 by Government of India to
review and recommend wage structure for all the central government employees including postal, railway,
defence civilian employees and armed forces. All the matters pertaining to the government servants like Pay
and Allowances, promotion policy, retirement benefits, service condition also been thoroughly reviewed by
these Pay commissions after every ten years and they submit recommendations to the government for the
approval.
At the advent of First Pay Commission, there was 1934 th year pay Scales were remained in effect. The pay
scales prescribed by first pay commission replaced the 1934 pay Scales.
First Pay Commission
The first pay commission was constituted in 1946 and the government appointed Srinivasa Varadacharia as
Chairman of this commission. The first pay commission was based upon the idea of “living wages” to the
employees, this idea was taken from the Islington Commission and the commission observed that “the test
formulated by the Islington Commission is only to be liberally interpreted to suit the conditions of the present
day and to be qualified by the condition that in no case should be a man’s pay be less than a living wage.
The minimum basic pay for Class IV staff has been raised from Rs. 10/- to Rs. 30/- and for Class III from Rs.
35/- to Rs. 60/- per month.
The Commission had fixed Rs. 55/- as minimum wage (Rs. 30 plus Rs. 25 as Dearness Allowance). The
recommendations were accepted and implemented in 1946.
The Second Pay Commission
10 years after independence, the second pay commission was set up in August 1957. Shri Jaganath Das was
appointed as Chairman of this Commission. The second pay commission finished its report within two years
and submitted it to the Government. The recommendations of the second pay commission had a financial
impact of Rs 396 million. The second pay commission reiterated the principle on which the salaries have to be
determined. It stated that the pay structure and the working conditions of the government employee should be
crafted in a way so as to ensure efficient functioning of the system by recruiting persons with a minimum
qualification. The Commission revised the pay scales by merging 50% of the Dearness Allowance with basic
Pay and it recommended Rs. 80 as the minimum remuneration (Basic Pay Rs. 70 plus DA Rs.10/-) payable to
a Government employee.
Third Pay Commission
Shri. Raghubir Dayal was appointed as Chairman of the third pay commission. It was set up in April 1970 and
gave its report in March 1973. The commission took almost 3 years to submit the report,. The main demand of
employees for a need based minimum wage as per the norms of 15th Indian Labour Conference was accepted
in principle even though Commission evolved its own concept of need based wage.
The Third Pay Commission recommended Minimum remuneration of Rs. 185 per month.
By taking into the consideration of employee’s views Government modified some of the recommendations of
the Commission and minimum wage was raised from Rs. 185 per month to Rs. 196/- per month.
The pay scales of group ‘D’, ‘C’ and ‘B’ of Third Pay commission and IV pay commission given below. In the
case of minimum basic pay of each scale of Pay in the two pay commissions recommended scales given
below , it is to be kept in mind that 4th CPC pay was increased by 2.8 to 3.8 times from 3rd CPC.

Fixation of Pay on Promotion as per RP Rules,2008

Fixation of Pay on Promotion or Upgradation as per Revised Pay Rules, 2008
Fixation of Pay on Promotion or Upgradation as per Revised Pay Rules, 2008
Many of our visitors are still asking some doubts pertaining the Fixation of Pay on Promotion or Upgradation. Particularly getting confusion in the calculation of annual and promotional increment and it will be rounded off.
Every Government employee has to submit an option when he gets promotion or upgradation. The option is under rule FR22(I)(a)(1) and the option have to submit within one month from the date of promotion or upgradation. When an employee accepts the promotion he will be asked to opt whether his pay will be fixed on the date of promotion or the date of next increment. His pay will be fixed as per the option has been exercised by him under rule FR22(I)(a)(1).
The Rule No.13 of CCS (Revised Pay-2008) says, “On promotion an employee will get one increment equal to three per cent of his basic pay (Pay in the pay band + Grade pay).
For illustration… If an employee opts to get his pay fixed in the higher post from the date of his promotion(1.12.2010), his pay will be fixed as follows…
His Basic pay on the date of promotion (as on 1.12.2010) :
11,500 + 2,800 = 14,300
Adding of 3% of Basic pay as Promotional increment (rounded off to the next multiple of ten) :
430 + 11,500 + 2,800 = 14,730
Promoted to in which Grade pay :
4200
Pay will be fixed on the date of promotion (as on 1.12.2010) :
11,930 + 4200 = 16,130
Date of next increment
on July 2011
On the date of next increment his pay will be i.e. 1st July 2011 : Adding of 3% of Basic pay as Annual increment (rounded off to the next multiple of ten) :
490 + 11,930 + 4,200 = 16,620

For example, the same employee, if he gets his promotion on 1.2.2011, his basic pay will be calculated as follows…
He should be given his option to fix his pay under rule FR22(I)(a)(1) on the date of next increment.
His Basic pay on the date of promotion (as on 1.02.2011) :
11,500 + 2,800 = 14,300
Adding only the next higher Grade pay in the promotional hierarchy :
The pay continues upto the date of next increment i.e., July, 2011
11,500 + 4,200 = 15,700
On the day of next increment the pay will be refixed (as on 1.07.2011) :
Adding of 3% of Basic pay as Promotional increment (rounded off to the next multiple of ten) :
11,500 + 2,800 + 430 = 14,730
On the day of next increment the pay will be refixed (as on 1.07.2011) :
Adding of 3% of Basic pay as Annual increment (rounded off to the next multiple of ten) :
11,930 + 2,800 + 450 = 15,180
His pay will be on 1.07.2011 :td>
12,380 + 4,200 = 16,580

When calculate the annual or promotional increment to an employee, there should be a rule should follow as per the office memorandum (F.No.1/1/2008-IC / http://finmin.nic.in/6cpc/fno1108dt290109.pdf) published by Finmin
 dated on 29.01.2009 . The rule says, “if the amount of increment comes to Rs.1900.70 paise, then the amount will be rounded off to Rs.1900; if the amount of increment works out to be Rs.1901, then it will be rounded off to Rs.1910.
Normally, the fraction of 50 paise and above to be rounded to one rupee and fraction of less than 50 paise to be ignored. But whereas here, the fraction of 90 paise will be ignored and one rupee and above will be rounded off to ten rupees.

Subject: Railway Services (Revised Pay) Rules, 2008- Clarification regarding fixation of pay under rule 13 on functional promotions in various situations where feeder and promotional posts have been placed in the same Pay Band and Grade Pay and where merger is not feasible.
Both the Federations i.e. AIRF and NFIR have taken up the issue in various fora regarding admissibility of notional increment as per Rule 13 (1) of the Railway Services (Revised Pay) Rules, 2008 in the situations of promotions in identical revised pay structure(viz, same Grade Pay and Pay Band ) consequent upon implementation of recommendations of Sixth Central Pay Commission.
2. Prior to notification of RS (RP) Rules, 2008 (effective from 1.1.2006), fixation of pay in the cases of promotion etc. was governed by the provisions of Railway Fundamental Rules its contained in Indian Railway Establishment Code Vol. II viz. Rule 1313 (FR22)(I)(a)(1) read with sub Rule (III) thereof. Consequent upon deliberations with recognized staff Federations at different fora and consultation with Ministry of Finance / 
DOPT, fixation of pay under Rule 1313 (FR22(I)(a)( 1)R-II was extended in certain  situations of promotion from one post to another in identical pay scale as an exception to general rules.
3. Fixation of pay on promotion in revised pay structure on or after 1.1.2006 is governed by Rule 13 of Railway Services (Revised Pay) Rules, 2008. As a consequence of implementation of recommendations of Sixth Central Pay Commission, various pre-revised scales have been merged and got replaced by same revised pay structure (same Pay Band and Grade Pay) leading to merger of corresponding posts as indicated in the foot notes of Board’s letter No. PC VI/I/RSRP/1 dt. 11.9.2008 (as further supplemented/modified from time to time). However, there are certain specific situations on the Railways wherein it has not been feasible to merge the feeder and promotional posts placed in same revised pay structure (same Pay Band and Grade Pay) and such categories continue to be operated as separate categories. Further, these posts are part of normal promotional hierarchy of the employee ( i.e. other than the situations arising than to movement of the employee to another cadre in same revised pay structure through option), movement involves assumption of duties and responsibilities of greater importance and benefit of promotional increment was available even prior to implementation of revised pay structure vide RS(RP) Rules, 2008.
4. Various situations of the nature as above have been under examination in consultation with Ministry of Finance and Department of Personnel and Training and accordingly President is pleased to decide that the benefit of promotional pay fixation as per the provisions of Rule 13(i) of RS(RP) Rules, 2008 may be extended in the following situations of promotion from one post to another in same revised pay structure effective from 1.1.2006 onwards:
