Understand the full account of salary like this

• The basic salary of the employee is calculated by multiplying the fitment factor 2.57 of the 7th Pay Commission (7th Pay Commission latest update).
• For example- If the basic salary of a central employee is Rs 18,000, then his salary excluding allowances will be 18,000 X 2.57 = Rs 46,260. Assuming the same 2.57 to be 3, then the salary will be 21,000X3 = Rs.63,000.
• If the fitment factor 3.68 hike increases from 2.57 to 3.68, then the same salary will be Rs 95,680 (26000X3.68 = 95,680). This would mean an increase of Rs 49,420 in the overall salary of the employees.
• If the fitment factor 3 is 3 times from 2.57 per cent, then the basic pay of the employees will increase from Rs 18,000 to Rs 21,000, which means it will increase by Rs 3000. If the same happens to be 3.68 percent, then the salary will increase up to 96 thousand.
