IAS Officer’s Salary and Other Facilities

The Salary of an IAS officer is how much is such a question which is being asked daily by thousands of job seekers. In India it is said that the salary in government services is too low. Many bright students do not want to join the government services for low salary. But IAS is not everything about salary, it is not a simple job for making money, it is also about serving the nations and its billions of people. After the 6th pay commission the salary of an IAS officer in India is not that bad too. I am going to discuss about the salary and facilities of Indian Administrative service officer. Pay Scales In government services in India Pay Scales is not the total salary. It only indicates the minimum and maximum basic pay of an employee.

Implementation of these changes will affect the fate of over four lakh civil services aspirants looking to take the exam this year.
