Eighth Pay Commission will not be implemented in 2026, will have to wait for two years for implementation

More than 1.2 crore central employees and pensioners across the country are eagerly waiting for the Eighth Pay Commission. The government may have approved the formation of this commission on January 16, 2025. But it has not been formally constituted yet. Even though six months have passed since the announcement, the chairman and members have not been appointed yet. Also, its Terms of Reference (ToR) have not been finalized. So whether the implementation of this commission will be implemented from January 1, 2026 or not. Questions have been raised on this. If we look at the announcement and implementation of various pay commissions on a historical basis, it has taken the government at least two to two and a half years to implement the new pay commission. So it may take two years to implement this new Eighth Pay Commission.
