According to the ministry, the 8th CPC will submit its recommendations to the Government within the timeline provided in the ToR.

Meanwhile, the Government has sought inputs from major stakeholders like the Ministry of Defence, the Ministry of Home Affairs, the Department of Personnel & Training, and from states to finalise the terms of reference of the 8th Central Pay Commission.

"Inputs have been sought from major stakeholders, including the Ministry of Defence, Ministry of Home Affairs, Department of Personnel & Training, and from the States. The Commission will make its recommendations within the timeline that will be provided in the Terms of Reference," Union Minister of State for Finance, Pankaj Chaudhary said in a written reply to a query in the Rajya Sabha on Wednesday (July 29, 2025).

When will the Government notify the 8th CPC?

According to the Finance Ministry, the official notification of the 8th CPC will be issued in due course.

"It has been decided by the Government to constitute the 8th Central Pay Commission (CPC). Inputs have been sought from the major stakeholders. Official notification would be issued in due course," Chaudhary said.

The Chairperson and Members of the 8th CPC would be appointed once the 8th CPC is notified by the Government.

Various reports have estimated that the recommendations of the 8th CPC may come into effect from FY27. A report by Kotak Institutional Equities said that the revised salaries and pension based on 8th CPC recommendations may be rolled out during the last three months of calendar year 2026 or in the first three months of calendar year 2027.

Previous pay commissions took around 1.5 to 2 years to submit their reports.
