Salary details

Select your pay level and basic pay below, then press Calculate Salary to view your detailed 7th & 8th CPC Salary Breakdown.

1. Your pay now

It is on your payslip, like “Level 7”. It shows your post's place in the 7th CPC pay table.

Pick the amount shown as “Basic Pay” on your payslip. Pick the level first.

2. Where you work

HRA (house rent allowance) depends on your city. Not sure? Type your city in the box above. Live in government quarters? Pick “No HRA”.

Big cities, like Delhi and Mumbai, get a higher TA. The city box above fills this too.

3. DA rate

DA (dearness allowance) is extra money on top of basic pay, to keep up with prices. 53% is the current official rate; it merges and resets to 0% when the 8th Pay Commission takes effect.

4. Anything extra? (skip if none)

Do you work in a government hospital?

Doctors get NPA (20% of basic pay). Nurses and other hospital staff get PCA or HPCA: ₹4,100 a month up to Level 8, ₹5,300 from Level 9. Tap to add; tap again to remove.

Do you get any other allowance?

Add its name and how much you get each month (e.g. Uniform, CEA, Risk, Special Pay).

Is anything else cut from your salary?

For example: licence fee for government quarters, a society fee, extra NPS you chose, or an advance being paid back. We already take out NPS (10%), CGHS and income tax, so don't add those.
