7th Central Pay Commission (CPC) Compensation Structure

The Junior Research Fellow (JRF) position at IIT Indore (IITI) is governed by the Department of Science and Technology (DST) guidelines (OM No. DST/PCP/01/2023) rather than the standard 7th CPC Pay Matrix. However, it is equivalent to Level 6/7. The consolidated monthly fellowship is fixed at Rs. 37,000 for the first two years. Dearness Allowance (DA) is not applicable to this consolidated fellowship. House Rent Allowance (HRA) is provided at 20% for Class Y cities like Indore, amounting to Rs. 7,400, bringing the Gross Monthly Fellowship to Rs. 44,400. Since this is a project-based fellowship, standard National Pension System (NPS) or Provident Fund (PF) deductions are not applicable, though minor professional tax may be deducted. The estimated in-hand monthly salary is approximately Rs. 44,200, offering a highly competitive compensation package for research scholars in premier Indian academic institutions.
