8th Pay Commission: Salaries to Rise Rapidly, Shocking Revelation in Report!
8th Pay Commission: All the government employees in the country are eagerly waiting for the implementation of the 8th Pay Commission. Various discussions have been heard regarding the 8th Pay Commission for quite some time now. According to the reports that have come forward so far, the 8th Pay Commission will be implemented in January 2026, and it is expected that this will increase the salaries of all employees by around 30% to 34%. Now, a new update has emerged regarding the 8th Pay Commission.
It is being said that after implementing the new fitment factor, people’s salaries will increase significantly. Compared to the 7th Pay Commission, the 8th Pay Commission will provide higher salaries. Changes in the fitment factor may also be made, and work is being done to finalize all kinds of rules for this. However, the government has not yet officially announced its implementation in 2026.
How Much Salary Will You Get in the 8th Pay Commission?
How much salary you will get in the 8th Pay Commission depends entirely on the fitment factor. It is being said that this time the fitment factor could range between 1.83 and 2.46, which will significantly increase the basic salary of all employees. In the 7th Pay Commission, a fitment factor of 2.57 was used, which raised the basic salary from ₹7,000 to ₹18,000. However, due to the resetting of the dearness allowance, the actual increase was only 14%. Something similar might be seen this time too.
When Will the 8th Pay Commission Be Implemented?
The government forms a Pay Commission every 10 years, which works to bring the salaries of employees in the government and private sectors almost on par. Based on the reports that have come forward so far, it may take 18 to 24 months to implement the Pay Commission. In such a case, implementing it in 2026 seems difficult, and it might be implemented in the financial year 2027.
