Estimated 7th Pay Commission pay scales as on 01.01.2016
Even
as the 7th Pay Commission was constituted recently by Government for
revision of Pay and allowances of Central Government Employees, Railway
Employees and Defence Personnels, wide spread speculations on projected
7th Pay Commission pay scales are already going on. Blogs that provide
Central Government Employees news and information have already started
estimatingpossible 7th CPC pay scales based on different ideas.
GConnect.in was the first site that
launched 6th Pay Commission Pay, Pension and arrears Calculator which
received atmost popularity among Central Government Employees and CG
Pensioners.
In respect of revised Pay and allowances
of 7th Pay Commission also GConnect would come up with similar pay and
pension calculators.
As a precursor, we thought of
estimating 7th Pay Commission pay bands and grade pays based on the same
methods adopted by Govt for determining 6th CPC revised pay Scales from
the pre-revised (5th CPC) pay scales
Before estimation of 7th CPC Pay Scales let us have a look at the 6th CPC Pay Bands and Grade Pay Structure
6th CPC revised Pay Band, Grade Pay, Starting Pay in PB and Entry Pay
Multiplication Factor of 1.86 adopted to for revision of Pay on implementation of 6th CPC :
While implementing 6th Pay Commission
Government decided to adopt a multiplication factor of 1.86 for most of
the pre-revised pay Scales to determine the revised pay in band of an
employee
The 6th CPC revised pay in pay band of an
employee was determined by multiplying the pre-revised basic pay drawn
as on 01.01.2006 with 1.86 ( Of course, some of the pre-revised pay
scales at higher level was revised by multiplying a factor more than
1.86).
This multiplying factor 1.86 was arrived
at by taking in to account following components of pre-revised pay
received by an employee prior to 01.01.2006.

Multifplication Factor

Component A – Pre-revised Basic Pay

|
Component B – Dearness Pay (50% of pre-revised Basic Pay)
|
0.50
|
Component C – 24% Dearness Allowance on pre-revised basic pay and D.P prior to 01.01.2006
|
0.36 (24% on factors 1+0.5 taken for B.P and D.P)
|
Total Multiplication Factor

1.86

Estimation of Multiplication Factor to
determine 7th Pay Commission revised Pay Scales and initial pay in pay
band for each pay band :
By Adopting the same method followed by
the Government to decide 6th CPC multiplication factor, the following
Multiplication Factor has been arrived at for determing 7th Pay
Commission revised Pay Scales and initial pay in pay band for each pay
band as on 01.01.2016
Component

Multiplication Factor

Component A and B – Pay in pay band and Grade Pay as on 01.01.2016

Component C – 124 % Dearness Allowance on Pay in pay band and Grade Pay (** See the Note Below)
|
1.24
|
Total Multiplication Factor
|
2.24
|
** Note : DA as on 1st January 2014 is
100%. So DA as on 1st January 2016 has been conservatively estimated to
be 124 % (6% increase for each 6 months period)
Estimation of 7th Pay Commission Grade Pay Structure
As we all know, there was no uniform
correlation between Grade Pay and Pay in Pay band in the 6th CPC Pay
Band Structure. So the ratio between the present grade pay and starting
pay in the pay band of particular grade pay group was taken as the
factor to estimate the 7th CPC grade pay.
For example Ratio of 6th CPC Grade pay of
Rs. 8700 to starting pay (Rs.37400) in that grade pay group is 0.2327.
This factor is multiplied with 7th CPC starting pay (Rs.83780) to get
the equivalent 7th CPC grade pay of Rs.19500. Wherever this factor
exceeded 0.35, the same was fixed as 0.35.

@ Starting Pay is the 7th CPC starting pay in a pay band against a pre-revised Scale
@@ Entry Pay is the pay in pay band applicable to New Recruits.
The above table provides an idea on
estimated 7th CPC Pay Band, Grade Pay and starting pay for each grade
pay group. We have planned to launch an online tool to estimate 7th CPC
pay in pay band and grade for a given 6th CPC pay in pay Band and grade
pay. It will be released soon. Keep watching this site for this online
tool.
Disclaimer: The above 7th CPC projected
Pay bands, grade pay and starting pay are merely an estimation. The
Actual 7th Pay Commission Pay Band, Grade Pay etc will be known only
after implements the 7th Pay Commission’s recommendations. The pay
structure given above may totally change based on various factors taken
in to account by 7th Pay Commission to review the pay and allowances of
Central Government Employees, Railway Employees and Defence personnels.
The following Government Orders relating
to implementation of 6th Pay commission report have been referred to for
the estimation of above mentioned 7th pay commission projected pay
bands.
