Not a government website

pay.forkr.in is published by VetanPe, a private independent maker of online tools. It is not the 8th Central Pay Commission, the Ministry of Finance, the Department of Expenditure, the Department of Personnel & Training or any other public authority, and it is not endorsed by them. It uses no national emblem, government seal, ministry logo or official-looking insignia, and it never describes its output as official, confirmed, approved or final.

Nothing here is an announced figure

At the time this page was last verified, no final 8th Central Pay Commission fitment factor, revised pay matrix, implementation date or allowance structure had been officially announced. The fitment factors offered on this site are example scenarios, provided so you can compare possibilities. They are editable precisely because they are assumptions and not facts. Figures reported in newspapers, on television or on social media are not treated as official here, and neither should they be treated as official anywhere else until they appear in a government notification.

What the estimate covers

The calculator estimates revised basic pay or revised basic pension, the monthly increase, the percentage increase and the accumulated arrears for a period you select. That is the whole of it.

What the estimate does not cover

• Dearness allowance and dearness relief, at any rate, past or future.
• House rent allowance, transport allowance and every other allowance.
• NPS or UPS contributions, CGHS, insurance, professional tax and income tax.
• Any pay matrix, matrix-cell rounding rule or minimum-pay floor, because none has been published for the 8th Pay Commission.
• Pay-fixation rules on promotion, increment date, protection of pay, or pension commutation and restoration.
• Whether arrears would be released at once or in instalments, and any deduction or recovery applied to them.

For that reason the result is not your gross salary, and it is certainly not your in-hand salary.

Arrears are an accumulated difference

The arrear figure is the monthly increase multiplied by the number of completed months between the two dates you entered. Both dates are your assumptions. The calculator never produces a negative arrear amount and always displays the month count it used.

Verify before you act

Do not use any figure from this site to commit to a loan, a purchase, a retirement decision or any other financial obligation. Where anything here differs from a government order or from your own department or pension disbursing authority, that official document is correct and this site is not.
