    Credits:
  • The implementation of the 7th Pay Commission is expected to boost the demand of consumption and in-turn growth in market.

    The possibility of an increase in general expenditure of the government would result in pushing the inflation further up.

    Also, there are high probabilities of the fiscal deficit bearing the brunt of the hike in salaries of the government employees.

  • The 7th Pay Commission has recommended a revised pension formulation for civil employees, including CAPF personnel and Defence personnel, who have retired before 1 January 2016. The revision would bring out equality between the previous and the current pensioners in the pay scale during retirement.
