Establishment of the 8th Central Pay Commission (CPC)
The Government of India has announced the establishment of the 8th Central Pay Commission (CPC) to review and recommend changes to the pay structure for central government employees. This decision marks a significant step in addressing the compensation and benefits of government personnel.
Stakeholder engagement is a key component of this process, with inputs being solicited from various ministries, including the Ministry of Defence, Ministry of Home Affairs, and the Department of Personnel & Training, as well as from state governments. These consultations aim to ensure that the perspectives and needs of all relevant parties are considered in the Commission’s recommendations.

An official notification regarding the formation of the 8th CPC will be issued shortly, at which point the appointment of the Chairperson and members will also take place. The Commission is expected to operate within a defined timeline as outlined in its Terms of Reference, ultimately delivering recommendations that will shape the future of government employee compensation in India.
