Seventh Pay Commission likely to submit report in October 2015

After 14th Finance Commission, 7th pay panel’s report looms : LiveMint


Finance ministry fears that its revenue will be affected in 2016-17 as it has to absorb new pay panel recommendations

New Delhi: After the recommendations of the Fourteenth Finance Commission (FFC) forced the government to reduce its plan expenditure in the 2015-16 budget, the Union finance ministry fears its revenues will remain constrained in 2016-17 as well since it has to absorb the recommendations of the Seventh Pay Commission (SPC) in that year. 

The Seventh Pay Commission will submit its report by October 2015. 


“The 7th Pay Commission impact may have to be absorbed in 2016-17. The phase of consolidation, extended by one year, will also be spanning out in this period. Thus, in the medium-term framework, the fiscal position will continue to be stressed,” the finance ministry said in the macroeconomic framework statement laid before Parliament along with the budget on Saturday.

Provision for 7th Pay Commission in Budget 2015-16


The Budget is also gravely silent on fund allocations for the Seventh Pay Commission award, due for implementation in 2016.  The budgetary documents are stressing upon likely burden from the report of the 7th Pay Commission.  However the funds are allocated for Commission'ss establishment.  The extract of budgetry documents which are related to 7th CPC are mentioned below:-

Speech of Finance Minister - Heading Fiscal Roadmap para 23:-


Budget  2015-2016
Speech  of
Arun Jaitley
Minister of Finance



February 28,  2015
Fiscal Roadmap
23. I want to underscore that my government still remains firm on achieving the medium term target of 3% of GDP.  But that journey has to take account of the need to increase public investment.  The total additional public investment over and above the RE is planned to be `1.25 lakh crore out of which `70,000 crore would be capital expenditure from budgetary outlays.  We also have to take into account the drastically reduced fiscal space; uncertainties that implementation of GST will create; and the likely burden from the report of the 7th Pay Commission.  Rushing into, or insisting on, a pre-set time-table for fiscal consolidation pro-cyclically would, in my opinion, not be pro-growth.  With the economy improving, the pressure for accelerated fiscal consolidation too has decreased.  In these circumstances, I will complete the journey to a fiscal deficit of 3% in 3 years, rather than the two years envisaged previously.  Thus, for the next three years, my targets are: 3.9%, for 2015-16; 3.5% for 2016-17; and, 3.0% for 2017-18.  The additional fiscal space will go towards funding infrastructure investment.
