All central government employees expect the 8th Pay Commission to submit its report within its 18-month deadline set in November 2025. A delay in report submission and then its notification may cause loss to employees as they get arrears on basic pay and not on allowances.
Once submitted, a group of ministers will review the 8th CPC report before the Centre notifies it. The pay commission has an 18-month deadline from November 2025 to submit the report. Experts believe that the government may take 3-6 more months to implement the report. But if the government delays it, employees may suffer losses in the form of allowances.
