Let's now do a complete breakdown of the new salary for a Level-7 employee. New Basic Salary Calculation Current Basic Pay (Level-7): Rs 44,900 Estimated Fitment Factor: 1.92 New Basic Pay Calculation: Rs 44,900 × 1.92 = Rs 86,208
The takeaway is that your basic salary will jump from Rs 44,900 to over Rs 86,000. Big Jump in Allowances
Now, on this new basic pay, your allowances will be added, making your salary even more attractive. Dearness Allowance (DA): When the new pay commission is implemented, DA will be reset to 0%. House Rent Allowance (HRA): For employees living in X-category cities (like Delhi or Mumbai), this will be 30% of the new basic pay. HRA = Rs 25,862 Travel Allowance (TA): For higher TPTA cities, this will be Rs 3,600. 8th CPC: Gross Salary vs Net Salary
Now, let's add everything up to see the total monthly earnings, i.e., the gross salary.
Gross Salary Calculation New Basic Salary: Rs 86,208 Dearness Allowance (DA): Rs 0 House Rent Allowance (HRA): Rs 25,862 Travel Allowance (TA): Rs 3,600
Total Gross Salary: Rs 1,15,670 per month
This is the amount that will appear on your salary slip. But to know how much will actually reach your bank account, we need to factor in deductions. Net Salary (In-Hand Salary) Calculation NPS Deduction: This is 10% of your Basic Pay + DA. 10% of Rs 86,208 = Rs 8,621 (approx.) CGHS Deduction: For this level, it will be Rs 650. Income Tax (Estimated): Under the new tax regime, around Rs 6,670 per month. So, how much will you take home? Gross Salary: Rs 1,15,670 Total Deductions (NPS + CGHS + Tax): Rs 8,621 + Rs 650 + Rs 6,670 = Rs15,941
Estimated Net In-Hand Salary: Rs 1,15,670 − Rs 15,941 = Rs 99,729 per month
