Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Has the 8th Pay Commission pension hike been announced?
The commission process is underway, but a final, notified fitment factor for pensioners was not available in the sources used for this tool. Treat every figure as an estimate until the government notification appears.
Will DR be added on the new pension?
At each pay commission, DR is merged/reset and then rebuilt from the implementation date. This estimate shows basic pension only.
What fitment factor should I use?
2.57 was the 7th CPC factor and is a common placeholder in news estimates. You can try 2.28 or 2.86 to see lower and higher scenarios.
Does this apply to family pension too?
The same multiplication estimate is used for family pension in most estimators, using the family pension amount as the base.
