8th Pay Commission Salary Calculator
Build a fuller 8th CPC salary projection with revised basic pay, DA, HRA, TA, NPS, CGHS, employer contribution, and an approximate monthly take-home estimate.
What this 8th CPC salary calculator includes
This page goes beyond gross pay. It estimates revised pay components, employee and employer NPS contributions, CGHS, optional extra deductions, and an approximate net salary after a simple tax-rate assumption.
How the take-home estimate is built
Gross monthly pay is calculated from revised basic pay, DA, HRA, TA, and optional DA on TA. Deductions are then applied using employee NPS, CGHS, other deductions, and a planning-level tax rate. Employer NPS is shown separately because it affects total cost-to-employer but not your in-hand pay.
Best use case for this page
Use this calculator when you want a salary-slip style 8th CPC estimate. For a lighter model focused on fitment factor and gross pay only, use the 8th Pay Commission Calculator.
Important disclaimer
This is a planning tool, not an official government calculator. Real pay fixation, HRA class, TA slabs, tax treatment, and deduction rules can change with policy updates.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does employer NPS increase my take-home pay?
No. Employer NPS is shown separately because it contributes to your total package, not your monthly in-hand salary.
Why is tax handled with a simple rate?
This page is meant for fast scenario planning. A flat estimated tax rate makes it easier to compare different 8th CPC assumptions without modeling every tax rule in detail.
Can I include LIC, loans, or other deductions?
Yes. Add them in the other deductions field to reduce the projected in-hand salary.
