Telangana uses PRC master scales with a state DA formula. An 8th CPC notification is expected to influence the next Telangana PRC's fitment benchmark.
When the 8th Pay Commission is notified centrally, Telangana 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.
