The Finance Division issued the Service (Pay and Allowances) Order, 2026 as S.R.O. No. 347-Ain/2026 (gazette 17 September 2026). It is the 9th National Pay Scale, effective from 1 July 2026. Grade 1 is a fixed ৳1,56,000. Grade 20 starts at ৳20,000. Cabinet / Principal Secretary is a separate fixed ৳1,72,000; Senior Secretary ৳1,64,000.
The gazette keeps 20 grades and publishes a step table for each grade (not the old 5% compound). Increment years here walk those official steps and stop at the last step.
Drawing is phased on top of the 30 June 2026 (8th scale) basic: July–December 2026 is 40% of the increase for grades 1–9 and 50% for grades 10–20; January–June 2027 is 70% / 75%; full new basic from 1 July 2027. House rent, medical, festival and Pohela Boishakh on this page still use the 2015 field rates because the gazette keeps existing allowances until 1 January 2028.
