Illustrative figures using sample pay-matrix data. The 8th CPC has not been officially notified — fitment factors shown are projections for planning purposes only.
| Cadre | Level | 7th CPC basic | 8th CPC @ 2.86x |
|---|---|---|---|
| Multi-Tasking Staff | Level 1 | ₹18,000 | ₹51,480 |

GNCTD employees draw the central pay matrix, central DA and X-class HRA (30% of basic pre-revision), so 8th CPC revision applies directly without a state lag.
When the 8th Pay Commission is notified centrally, Delhi employees can expect a fitment factor between 2.57x and 2.86x on basic pay, with state DA rebased to 0% at implementation. HRA slabs are typically revised in line with the central rules.
