Calculate Your 6th Pay Commission Salary
The 6th Punjab Pay Commission (PPC) officially revised the pay structure, effectively replacing outdated grade pay systems with a modern pay matrix. By entering your pre-revised basic pay (as of December 31, 2015) and applying the standard 2.59 fitment factor, you can determine your revised basic pay scale.
Use the calculator above to map your pay directly into the new Punjab pay matrix. You can adjust the city category to compute accurate house rent allowance and verify the amount deducted towards NPS or GPF.
Understanding Allowances and Deductions
Your gross monthly salary combines your revised basic pay with multiple state-sponsored allowances. The major ones are Dearness Allowance, HRA, Fixed Medical Allowance (₹1,000), and Mobile Allowance.
Deductions automatically reduce your gross salary to determine your final net in-hand take-home. Key deductions include a 10% retirement slash for NPS, small GIS levies, and the mandatory Punjab Development Tax of ₹200.
Punjab Govt HRA Rates and Classes
House rent allowance in Punjab is strictly categorized by population density and geographical cost of living. Employees stationed in Class A cities receive the maximum allowance of 24% of their revised basic pay.
If you are transferred to a Class B city, the rate drops to 16%. In Class C towns, employees receive a 10% HRA boost, while rural postings categorized as Class D provide a modest 8% allowance.
