8th Pay Commission: The Center had announced the 8th Pay Commission in January this year. Since the announcement of the Pay Commission, the employees and pensioners of the Central Government are eagerly waiting for the appointment of two committee members and the chairman. The government is expected to announce the names of the panel members next month. Since the term of the current 7th Pay Commission is going to end on December 31, 2025, the big question in the minds of the employees is whether the government will be able to implement the new pay commission from January 2026 or not.

What is the pattern

Looking at past examples, it is extremely unlikely that the recommendations of the new pay commission will be implemented from January next year, as previous pay commissions have usually taken more than a year to finalize their reports. This time, with the announcement of the pay commission being delayed compared to previous pay commissions, chances are high that the implementation of the recommendations will be seen only in the financial year 2026-27.

What did the government say now?

Meanwhile, two MPs Kangana Ranaut of the BJP and Sajda Ahmed of the Trinamool Congress raised questions in the Lok Sabha about the formation of the 8th Pay Commission to revise the salaries and pensions of central government employees. Their question was whether the government has set any timeline for submitting the report of the 8th Pay Commission. These MPs also asked about the progress made on the terms of reference for the pay commission. Responding to their questions, Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman said the timeline for submitting the report and the progress on the terms of reference “will be decided in due course”. One question was about the estimated number of central government employees and pensioners at the 7th Pay Commission level who are likely to get benefits from the 8th Pay Commission, which will boost consumption and promote economic growth across the country, including Odisha. On this, the Finance Minister said that the estimated number of Central Government civilian employees and pensioners/family pensioners are 36.57 lakh (as on 01.03.2025) and 33.91 lakh (as on 31.12.2024) respectively. He said, “Defence personnel and pensioners will also get benefits”.
