Levels as per the Pay Matrix

Prior to VI CPC, there were Pay Scales. The VI CPC had recommended running Pay Bands with Grade Pay as status determiner. The Seventh CPC is recommending a Pay matrix with distinct Pay Levels. The Level would henceforth be the status determiner.

Since the existing pay bands cover specific groups of employees such as PB-1 for Group C’ employees, PB-2 for GroupB’ employees and PB-3 onwards for Group `A’ employees, any promotion from one pay band to another is akin to movement from one group to the other.
