Please visit our new website http://surispace.net for answers to  pay commission queries

Updated 25th March 2008:-

Official : Sixth Pay Commission Pay Calculator

Comparing fifth and sixth Pay Commission reports.

Some Observations :-

1. Fifth CPC terminology of “Basic Pay” is comparable to Sixth CPC terminology of “Total Pay”.

1. All previous pay commissions taken on average had given an increase of 3.3 times for basic pays.

1. Sixth Pay commission has raised Basic/Total Pay 2.5 times on average and is lagging behind the previous pay commissions by 25% approximately.

1. However allowances have been increased e.g. TA and Children education etc. quantum of increase being more than previous pay commissions.

1. On the whole legitimate needs of employees have been met like Finance Minister stated during budget but it is far from being a Bonanza!

1. What do you think does this CPC fulfill your expectations?

The full-text of the report has been released and put up on the web site of Sixth Central Pay Commission. Here are the links:

Happy Holi!

Windows XP lovers

Loving my Windows XP SP3 RC2 OS and not impressed with Vista SP1 i was open to the more recent flavors of operating systems being doled out by Microsoft.

Last week i got the opportunity to play around with Windows Server 2008 and was mighty impressed with it. It allowed me to do everything on my Laptop which XP did and more.  You can see how to use a Server OS for your Laptop/Desktop here and here.

If you don’t mind formatting once in a couple of months (240 days to be precise) the $1000-$4000 Windows Server 2008 is available for free directly from Microsoft.

Without going in detail Server 2008 is surely better than Vista SP1 on many counts noteworthy is performance on my 512 MB machine.

So far It’s been a smooth transition and i did not require the service of XP in anyway.

At the time of writing this article Internet Explorer 8 beta 1 has been released by Microsoft which is loaded with new features. It feels great so far and I suggest you give it a go.

In conclusion if you are still in love with XP but open to moving on then i highly recommend having a look at Windows Server 2008.
