The 7th Pay Commissions headed by Justice AK Mathur has submitted its report to the Ministry of Finance recently. The report has put a smile on the faces of central government employees as it recommended salary hike as well as other perks and benefits for them. The announcement has also come as an incentive for candidates aspiring to land a central government job through SSC CGL exams this year. The 7th Central Pay Commission report has suggested an increase in the pay and allowances of 23.55%, a 24% rise in pensions, making SSC jobs even more lucrative career option.

To clarify these doubts, we have compiled a holistic table, listing all Group B and Group C jobs offered through SSC CGL exam and the associated grade pay along with calculations to provide proper understanding about the new Pay Slabs.
