About the 7th Pay Commission Calculator
What is the 7th Pay Commission Calculator?
This 7th pay commission calculator builds a central government employee's monthly salary from the pay matrix basic pay, the current DA rate, HRA for X, Y or Z cities and transport allowance by pay level.
You can also convert pre-revised 6th CPC pay (pay in band + grade pay) using the 2.57 fitment factor.
How to use the 7th Pay Commission Calculator
- I Know My (sample: 7th CPC basic pay (pay matrix))
- Basic Pay (₹ per month) (sample: 56,100)
- DA Rate (%) (sample: 58)
- City Class for HRA (sample: X city (30%))
- Pay Level (for Transport Allowance) (sample: Level 9 and above)
- Transport Allowance City (sample: Higher TPTA city (X-class cities))
- Press Calculate 7th CPC Salary (results also refresh as you type). The result card shows the Gross Monthly Salary, along with Basic pay (7th CPC), Dearness allowance, House rent allowance and Transport allowance incl. DA.
Formula used
Gross = Basic + DA + HRA + TA × (1 + DA%)
- HRA = 30% / 20% / 10% of basic for X / Y / Z cities (since DA crossed 50%)
- TA = ₹7,200 / ₹3,600 / ₹1,350 in higher TPTA cities for levels 9+, 3–8 and 1–2
- Fitment = 7th CPC basic = 6th CPC pay × 2.57
The 8th Pay Commission has been constituted; these figures follow 7th CPC rules until its recommendations are implemented.
