Yes, it is an advisory body to National Development Council. This is also one of the reasons it is an extra constitutional body. But, in practice, it enjoys a lot of power because it constitutes of the cabinet ministers. It undermines the federal structure of India and Sarkaria commission in 83 recommended that pc should compromise only of economists, not ministers and restructuring its relatitionship with NDC.

Planning Commission is a non-Constitutional (not created by the Constitution) and non-statutory(not created by an Act of Parliament) body. It was created in 1950 by Govt. Of India by an executive resolution. Finance Commission, which does a similar work, is a Constitutional body.

Does finance commission work under planning commission?

Since there is no Central Planning Commission or Finance Commission in the US I assume you ask this question in reference to India. The answer in the Indian context is No. The Finance Commission is a constitutional body while the Planning Commission is not statutory and merely an advisory body. While some of their functions overlap, by and large the Finance Commission focuses on non-plan revenues (administrative costs of government etc) and expenditure while the Planning Commission focuses on plan expenditure (social schemes and infrastructure).
