You're absolutely right—the current HRA rates from the 7th Pay Commission haven't kept pace with urban inflation, especially in metro areas. 

Good news is, the 8th Pay Commission is expected to propose higher HRA rates for metro cities and overall improvements in allowances, aiming to address rising living and rental costs across urban centers. 

There’s strong indication that all major allowances, including HRA and transport allowance (TA), will be revised to better reflect today’s economic realities and provide fairer support to government employees.
