Short answerPublic sector bank officers are paid on published scales. Monthly basic pay runs from ₹48,480 at Scale I to ₹1,73,860 at the top of Scale VII, before allowances. Private banks and NBFCs publish no scales, so the figures for them come from readers, shown only once enough entries match.

What these numbers leave out

  • This is basic pay. Allowances and benefits are added on top, and they differ by bank and by city.
  • The table is Central Bank of India's. Other public sector banks work from the same kind of industry settlement, but check your bank's own notice for its figures.
  • Private banks, small finance banks and NBFCs do not publish scales. Their pay is not shown here until readers supply it.
  • Which scale a credit role sits in depends on the bank. Bank of India titled one recruitment project "Recruitment of Credit Officers in MMGS Scale II & III".

How to read a scale

A scale is written as a start, then steps. "₹48,480, then 7 steps of ₹2,000" means seven yearly increments of ₹2,000 after entry, and the scale goes on in the next band the same way. A bank moves an officer up a stage each year, and to the next scale on promotion. Promotion rules are the bank's.

  • Scale I: ₹48,480, 7 steps of ₹2,000, 2 steps of ₹2,340, 7 steps of ₹2,680 to ₹85,920.
  • Scale II: ₹64,820, 1 step of ₹2,340, 10 steps of ₹2,680 to ₹93,960.
  • Scale III: ₹85,920, 5 steps of ₹2,680, 2 steps of ₹2,980 to ₹1,05,280.
  • Scale IV: ₹1,02,300, 4 steps of ₹2,980, 2 steps of ₹3,360 to ₹1,20,940.
  • Scale V: ₹1,20,940, 2 steps of ₹3,360, 2 steps of ₹3,680 to ₹1,35,020.
  • Scale VI: ₹1,40,500, 4 steps of ₹4,000 to ₹1,56,500.
  • Scale VII: ₹1,56,500, 4 steps of ₹4,340 to ₹1,73,860.
