The extant rules do not stipulate any specific time period for constitution of a Pay Commission for Central Government employees. Till now five Central Pay Commissions have been constituted as under: -
| Pay Commission | Date of Appointment | Date of Submission of Report |
| First Pay Commission | May, 1946 | May, 1947 |
| Second Pay Commission | August, 1957 | August, 1959 |
| Third Pay Commission | April, 1970 | March, 1973 |
| Fourth Pay Commission | June, 1983 | Three Reports submitted in June, 1986; December, 1986 and May, 1987 respectively. |
| Fifth Pay Commission | April, 1994 | January, 1997 |
Thus successive Central Pay Commissions were set up in the past at intervals of 10 to 13 years. These Pay Commissions examined various issues such as pay and allowances, retirement benefits, conditions of service, promotion policies, etc. and submitted recommendations thereon.
