Pay Level-8 Salary 2025

Figuring out the first month’s salary of a central government worker can be a bit of a hassle, depending on the city their office is in! All you need are three main elements in order to calculate their monthly wage: the percentage of Dearness Allowance, the house rent allowance percentage, and the rate of transport allowance. We’ve crunched the numbers into four separate categories based on those factors!

The central government has divided the cities and towns in India into three categories such as Class X, Class Y, and Class Z, and the house rent has been determined accordingly. Similarly, cities in India have been divided into two categories to calculate the transport allowance. We have provided four types of salary structures based on the above categories.

    I joined service on 16 July 1999. Till date, I got 2 promotions. Now I got third promotion from Level 6 to Level 7 i.e. GP 4200 to GP 4600. I joined to Level 7 on 03 Jan 2023 after promotion. My date of increment is 01 July. Now the question is “Which option should I opt for PAy fixation”, From the date of Joining,e, 03 Jan 2023, or from 01 July 2023? Where do I got benefits? My date of retirement is 31 Jan 2035.

      What’s the basic pay as on 1-7-22? Are you not getting 7th CPC P from 1-1-2017, if changed give basic pay in MATRIX LEVEL 6 on 1-7-22. On the basis the fixation pay will be decided. You will get 2 increments (promotional & normal in MATRIX LEVEL 6) on 1-7-23 with the JULY increment option. 1-7-24 onwards you will get in MATRIX LEVEL 7.
