1. What Is The 7th CPC Pay Fixation On Promotion?

The 7th Central Pay Commission (CPC) pay fixation formula calculates the new pay when a government employee gets promoted. It ensures proper salary adjustment according to the 7th CPC guidelines.

2. How Does The Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the 7th CPC pay fixation formula:

Where:

• \( Old Pay \) — Current basic pay before promotion
• \( 2.57 \) — Multiplication factor as per 7th CPC
• \( Increment \) — Additional increment amount

Explanation: The formula multiplies the old pay by 2.57 (the fitment factor) and adds any applicable increment to determine the new pay level after promotion.

3. Importance Of Pay Fixation Calculation

Details: Accurate pay fixation ensures government employees receive correct salary adjustments after promotion, maintaining pay parity and following established commission guidelines.

4. Using The Calculator

Tips: Enter the old basic pay and increment amount in currency units. Both values must be non-negative numbers.

5. Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
