Any early indications as to what the 6th pay commission is likely to recommend ?

Question

Pay commissions in India are instituted every 10 years or so and they take more than 3 years to come out with recommendations. The whole process takes 10+3 = 13 years.
This is too large a time span and the economic circumstances in the country undergo drastic changes over such large time span. Consequently, for 6-7 years out of the 10+3 years of the life of pay commission process after every pay commission, Government Salaries and emoluments lag the market and the gap keeps increasing.

We now live in en era where companies draw quarterly balace sheets and profit and loss statements. Letters and fax messages are relics of the past and sms and e-mails share the load of bulk of the communication. Video conferencings are the in thing.
In such environment, 3 years for a report is too much. How about speeding up the things ?

Any early indications as to what the report is likely to recommend ?

Answer 1

To rise in pay and better service conditions

Answer 2

Tough measures may be suggested. Annual increments may be linked to CRs. HRA may not be reckoned as a percentage of basic pay. Instead slabs may be reintroduced. The maximum number of days of EL an employee can accumulate (300) may be reduced. Downsizing is likely. More people are likely to be brought under the new pension scheme. DA may be frozen. Basic pay may be increased manifold. All these are likely recommendations. Actual report may be different.
