The 8th Pay Commission has set October 10, 2026, as the deadline for organisations seeking discussions with it. The commission is scheduled to meet in Mumbai on October 22 and 23, 2026.
Request deadline falls before Mumbai meetings
Organisations that want to engage with the commission must submit their request by October 10, 2026. The deadline applies to organisations seeking a conversation with the commission; the scheduled Mumbai meetings take place later in October.

The commission’s Mumbai meetings are set for October 22 and 23, 2026. These are the two dates announced for the meetings, while October 10 is the stated cut-off for organisations to send requests.
The first meeting date is 12 days after the request deadline. Organisations therefore have to submit requests before the commission’s scheduled two-day programme begins in Mumbai.
- Request deadline for organisations: October 10, 2026.
- Commission meeting location: Mumbai.
- Scheduled meeting dates: October 22 and 23, 2026.
- The deadline comes 12 days before the first meeting date.
Dates for central employees and pensioners
The dates relate to the 8th Pay Commission and its engagement with organisations. The October 10 deadline is the key date for organisations seeking discussions, while October 22 and 23 are the dates set for the commission’s meetings in Mumbai.
Central government employees and pensioners following the commission’s work can distinguish between the two dates: requests are due by October 10, and the meetings are scheduled for October 22 and 23. The announced schedule does not make October 10 a meeting date.
A pay commission is a body associated with reviewing pay arrangements for public employees. The Pay Commission in India provides general background on the institution; the dates here concern the 8th Pay Commission’s October 2026 schedule.
For organisations planning to seek discussions, the deadline is October 10, 2026. The commission’s announced Mumbai programme follows on October 22 and 23, 2026, leaving a 12-day interval between the deadline and the first scheduled meeting.
