SSC CGL : Salary Structure



Here we are providing the salary of SSC employees of various grade pay after 7th pay commission.
The 7th Pay Commission has proposed the rate of HRA which varies according to X, Y and Z cities.
  • Class X - 8 Cities - 24% (Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, Chennai, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Ahmedabad and Pune)
  • Class Y - Around 100 Towns (With a Population above 5 Lakhs) - 16%
  • Class Z - Rural Areas - 8%
  • DA = It would be 0 percent. Because it will be merged with the basic pay.DA will be revised every six months.If you work in some special organisations, like CBI, IB, Security agencies etc., you get an extra 20% of Basic Pay as Special Security Allowance(SSA).
There are many other allowances like SDA, Medical, Canteen, Specs, Briefcase etc. We have Ignored them all for the sake of simplicity in the calculation.
    Salary Calculation: Let us calculate salary 4600 Grade-pay post.
      Grade Pay- 4600
      Let say the salary calculation of an Examiner posted in Mumbai.
      According to 7th Central Pay Commission Pay Matrix Table,

      Allowances
      • The Basic Pay = Rs. 44,900.
      • HRA = 24% of Basic Pay   = Rs. 10,776
      • DA  = 0.
      • Transport allowance =Rs. 3600 (Since Grade Pay  4600  lies in between Grade Pay of 2000 to 4800 )     
      • Now Gross pay = Basic Pay + HRA +DA +TA                                                                            = Rs.44900 + Rs.10,776 + 0 + Rs.3600 = Rs.59,276. = Rs.60,000(approx).
      Now we will calculate deductions on the Gross Pay.
      • NPS (National Pension Scheme) = 10% on Basic Pay is deducted as NPS = Rs. 4490
      • Employee Provident Fund(EPF) = It is based on the employee’s Basic pay which is 12% of salary (BP + DA). EPF  = 12% of  Basic Pay= Rs. 5388
      • TDS and other taxes like Education Cess will be deducted.
      • Total Deduction = NPS+EPF+Tax(TDS)+Other deductions = Rs. 9000 (approx)
      •  Inhand Salary  = Gross salary - Total Deduction

      Rs. 60,000 - Rs. 9000 (approx)  = Rs. 51,000

        In this way we have provided approx value of the salary(in Rs.) of SSC employees
