HRA, TA, NPS, and CGHS allowances
A report suggests a fitment factor between 1.92 and 2.57. This will also bring changes to HRA, TA, NPS, and CGHS allowances for government employees.

The 8th Pay Commission is expected to start in Jan 2026. While not confirmed, it's rumored salaries could double for all employees, and pensioners will also benefit.
