8th CPC salary hike and arrears
The 8th Pay Commission (8th CPC) is gradually working on its recommendations. Central government employees are eager to find out how much salary hike they can get in the 8th CPC. The hike in their salary will also determine arrears they will get for a delay in the implementation of the 8th Pay Commission report.
While the government may take more than a year to implement the 8th CPC’s report of recommendations, we have put together some calculations on the estimated arrears that Level 7 employees could receive because of the delay in the implementation of the 8th Pay Commission report.

How are arrears calculated for 20 months at 2.0 fitment factor
Level 7:
Current basic Rs 44,900
Monthly increase (at 2.0 fitment factor)= Rs 44,900
Arrears for 20 months = Rs 44,900 × 20 = Rs 8,98,000
This assumes that the fitment factor is 2.0, which doubles the current basic pay, and that arrears are paid for 20 months.
