The time of great relief and good news has come for those who do government jobs. The Central Government has cleared the 8th Pay Commission in January 2025. If everything goes on according to the fixed plan, then this commission can be implemented from 2026.

Earlier, the 7th Pay Commission was implemented in the year 2016, and now after almost a decade, the salary structure of the employees is going to change again.

Let us know how much salary is likely to increase at which level after the 8th Pay Commission is implemented, and how much can it benefit about 50 lakh employees and 60 lakh pensioners.

What is the fitment factor and how much will it increase?

According to reports, the fitment factor is expected to increase from 2.86 to 3.5 or more. This will directly affect the basic salary. For example, if an employee of Level 1 is currently taking a basic salary of Rs 18,000, it can increase to Rs 51,480 after the new fitment.
