Bunching benefit in Pay Band 1 Grade Pay 1800

Bunching benefit  in Pay Band 1 Grade Pay 1800

As per the 7th Pay Commission Report in page 80 para 5.1.36, it has clearly stated thatrationalisation has been done with utmost care to ensure minimum bunching at most levels, however if situation does arise whenever more than two stages are bunched together, one additional increment equal to 3 percent may be given for every two stages bunched, and pay fixed in the subsequent cell in the pay matrix.

According to the above statement, we have prepared new bunching table. Here we have noticed 2 bunching in Pay Band I Grade Pay 1800,

Example :

For both Basic Pay of Rs. 7210 & Rs.7430 we can see 19100 in the calculation based on 2.57 fixation as per pay matrix. In this case we have to fix the Pay as below

Pay in the pay band	Grade pay	6th cpc Basic pay	Multiplication Factor	Multiplied Result	Rounded to nearest stage as per 7cpc fitment table	7th cpc New basic pay (Bunching adjusted)
5410	1800	7210	2.57	18530	19100	19100
5630	1800	7430	2.57	19095	19100	19700

We also updated the bunching benefit in the 7th Pay Commission Calculator for all the grade pay. Information (in Red) will be visible only if your basic pay comes under bunching

Bunching Message in the Calculator :Since your pay gets bunched with a lower stage, you get additional increment of 3 percent for every two stages bunched, and the pay is fixed based on the subsequent cell in the pay matrix
