Constable (GD) — BSF, CRPF, CISF, ITBP, SSB, Assam Rifles, SSF: Level 3, ₹21,700; Sepoy — Narcotics Control Bureau: Level 1, ₹18,000. These are starting basic pay figures; allowances are added on top.
In-hand pay is basic pay plus Dearness Allowance, House Rent Allowance and Transport Allowance, minus deductions such as the pension contribution and tax. It depends on the city of posting and changes every time DA is revised, so we list only the fixed part — the starting basic pay of each pay level.
Basic pay is the same for the same post everywhere. House Rent Allowance differs by city class — higher in the big metros — so gross pay differs by posting.
