Recommendation may be implemented from April 2016
A news item published in
tkbsen.in said that central government may implement 7th pay commission
recommendation from April 2016. Recently,The Finance Minister in
his pre budget speech has said “The 7th Pay Commission impact may have to
be absorbed in 2016-17.” This is for the reason the Sen Times feels,the 7th CPC
report may be implemented from April 2016. The news item is posted below..
“……The Seventh Pay
Commission drafted in to make a new pay structure for the 30 lakh Central
government employees would not be able to submit its report in August this
year, the Commission is likely to seek extension till October.
The reports of Seventh
Pay Commission will be implicated from April next year as Finance Minister Arun
Jaitley said in the Parliament on February 27, “The 7th Pay Commission impact
may have to be absorbed in 2016-17.”
Finance Minister Arun
Jaitley said above statement in his pre-budget speech. His statement indicates
that the government may implement Seventh Pay Commission report from April
2016.
The UPA government
formed the Seventh Pay Commission on 28 February 2014 under chairman justice
Ashok Kumar Mathur with a timeline of 18 months to make its recommendations.
According to present position, the commission will take at least 20-24 months.
However, the Sixth Pay
Commission had submitted its report within 18 months.
As a result of the
recommendations of the Sixth Pay Commission, pay and allowances of the central
government employees more than doubled as per Fourteenth Finance Commission
estimates.
As such, the central
government employees are expected to get 100 percent salary hike under the
recommendations of the Seventh Pay Commission.
Issues like inflation,
the government’s financial position and salary structure of government
employees in other countries would also be considered as parts of pay panel
recommendations.
The Fourteenth Finance
Commission asked the pay panel to link the pay with productivity, which will be
the biggest hurdle for central government employees to be got over to get salary
hike.
It is interesting to
note that the earlier governments never accepted to link the pay with
productivity.
