7th pay commission will not impact the government finances: FinMin

20 Nov 2015 Evaluate

After the 7th Pay Commission headed by Justice A K Mathur recommended a 23.55 percent hike in salary, allowances and pension involving an additional burden of Rs 1.02 lakh crore for the government, the Finance Ministry has said that the recommendation of the seventh pay commission will not impact the finances. The ministry has said that it can handle the financial implications and will work out modalities for implementation of the suggestions. The new pay scale will come into effect from January 1, 2016, but is likely to be implemented from next financial year and employees will be paid arrears.

Finance Secretary Ratan Watal has said that by the time it is implemented, it goes into next financial year and India’s growth prospects are good and the economy is pretty robust.  He said that there will be challenges but the Ministry can face it. Watal also said the Finance Ministry would look at how to channelise the increase in money in the hands of people to long-term saving instruments.

In order to hasten the implementation of the recommendation, the government has decided to set up an implementation secretariat that would be headed by the expenditure secretary. Finance Minister Arun Jaitley said that an Implementation Secretariat, under Expenditure Secretary, will look into the recommendation of the Seventh Pay Commission. He further said that there will be a separate Empowered Committee which is normally headed by the Cabinet Secretary where different departments of the government which are concerned with the recommendations their heads are members and therefore if any representations come from any segment, they take a view.

The government had unveiled a fiscal consolidation roadmap in Budget under which fiscal deficit was to be brought down to 3.9 per cent of GDP in 2015-16, 3.5 per cent in 2016-17 and 3 per cent by 2017-18.Fiscal deficit in 2014-15 was 4 per cent of GDP.
