After the sixth pay commission was dissolved in 2008, the 7th Pay Commission also called the 7th Central Pay Commission (7CPC) was constituted in February, 2014 with a purpose of reviewing the principles and guidelines of payments and compensations of all central government employees, both belonging to the civilian class and the defence forces. The implementation of the decisions of the 7th Pay Commission is expected to affect the emoluments of the armed forces personnel especially.

Most of the recommendations of the 7th CPC with minor revisions were implemented by the government of India and its departments in September 2016. The seventh pay commission was majorly formed to focus on the

disparities in emoluments of the defence personal of India since the 6th pay commission didn’t solve many of their grievances
