MSP is an additional pay component provided to PBORs, amounting to Rs.5,200 per month, recognizing the unique hardships faced by military personnel.
While the basic pay scales are standardized, certain allowances and group-specific pays (like X and Y group pay) may vary across services.
PBORs are eligible for various allowances, including House Rent Allowance (HRA), Transport Allowance, and Field Area Allowance, among others.
The 7th Pay Commission has led to an increase in pensions for PBORs by revising the pension calculation formula, benefiting retired personnel.
