New Delhi: With the unrest among the central government employees growing, the Centre has decided to roll out the much awaited 7th pay commission from July 2017 onwards.

As per reports, a new Pay Matrix has been introduced with separate Pay Matrices for Civilians, Defence Personnel and for Military Nursing Service.
While the commission has enhanced the minimum pay to Rs 18,000 from Rs 7,000 per month, the newly-recruited Class I officer’s pay would be Rs 56,100.
Meanwhile, to know what would be your new revised salary you can calculate yourself:

Note: You will get addition of TA, HRA, medical Allowance as applicable to the amount Rs 25,700
