  1. Whether any possibility to claim 10 days Earned Leave encashment after completion of tour by availing Leave Travel Concession?  As the LTC rule is vague on this matter.

  2. My friend ‘X’ was promoted as Assistant from the post of UDC on 19.5.2006 and pay was fixed accordingly (Minimum of the pay scale Rs.9300/- in the Pay band PB2 Rs.9300-34800 with GP Rs.4200/-) with DNI on 01.07.2007 however if option exercised the pay fixation falls below Rs.9300/- i.e minimum of the pay band of Assistant hence option was not exercised and therefore the DNI after 15 months falls on  01.07.2007 which  is against the rule for granting increment!!! Kindly clarify.  

    1. Your friend could have exercised the option of fixing the pay on DNI as there is a provision in CCS (Revised Pay) Rules to step up the pay to minimum of pay band relating to promoted post.

        1. I joined Railways as Commercial clerk on 16.07.1990. I was promoted as Sr. CC in 1994(1200-2040), selected and promoted as Commercial controller(5000-8000) in may 1995. pl let me know when I am eligible for ACP/MACP. If yes, from when. I have not received ACP/MACP or any promotion till date.

  3. My friend ‘X’ was promoted as Assistant from the post of UDC on 19.5.2006 and pay was fixed accordingly (Minimum of the pay scale Rs.9300/- in the Pay band PB2 Rs.9300-34800 with GP Rs.4200/-) with DNI on 01.07.2007.   However if option exercised the pay fixation falls below Rs.9300/- i.e minimum of the pay band of Assistant hence option was not exercised and pay was fixed at Rs.9300/-.  Question is after fixing pay on 19.05.2006 the DNI after 15 months falls on  01.07.2007 which  is against the rule for granting increment!!!  The option possibilities have been stated in the question itself that it is not beneficial to the individual.

    YOUR  REPLY:Your friend could have exercised the option of fixing the pay on DNI as there is a provision in CCS (Revised Pay) Rules to step up the pay to minimum of pay band relating to promoted post.

    The reply is found to be unsatisfactory on the following points:

                1.  The pay falls below the minimum pay of Rs.9300/- in the pay band and
                     the option will not have any benefit.

                2.  On such a situation, i.e. denying any benefit upon option, the individual is                  getting the increment date after fifteen months (from the pay fixation date
                     on 19.05.2006) on 01.07.2007, hence is also denied increment benefit as 
                    per rules.  How this can be sorted out?  Please clarify with relevant                             quotings
                       

  4. Sir,
    I have joined in 27th  Aug. 1983 as a LDC in a Central Govt. office. In pre-revised scale 5000-150-8000. I opted to elect  the revised pay band wef 01-01-2006 & office has fixed from 1-1-2006 to 30-06-2006 in the pay scale Rs. 5200-20200 + GP 2400 i.e. Rs. 9120 + GP 2400 & from 01-07-2006 to 20-11-2006 in the pay scale Rs. 5200-20200 + GP 2400 i.e. Rs. 9470 + GP 2400. In the meantime, I have got promotion of UDC w.e.f. 21-11-2006 without financial benefits as I have already drawn the same. My pay was  9470 + GP 2400 till 30-06-07. From 01-07-07 to 26-08-07 my pay was 9830 + GP 2400 in the same pay scale. I have got 2nd ACP w.e.f. 27-08-2007 after 24 yrs of service. I have fixed on 10200 + GP 4200 in the scale 9300-34800 w.e.f. 27-8-08 to 30-06-08 & from 01-07-08 my pay was 10640 + GP 4200 as there is no post in the pay scale 4500-125-7000 so I was fixed in the scale of 5000-150-8000.   After that my office has again refixed the pay Rs. 20200+ GP 2800 w.e.f 27-08-07 to 30-06-08 in scale 5200-20200 + GP 2800 , Rs. 10590 + GP 2800  w.e.f 01-07-08 to 30-08-08 in scale 5200-20200 + GP 2800& Rs. 11000 +GP 2800  w.e.f 01-07-09 with remarks :You are fixed in the revised pay band Rs. 5200-20200 + GP 2800 i.e. the immediate next higher grade pay in the hierarchy of pay band and grade pay as per the sixth pay commission accepted by the Govt. therefore fixation is as under:  

    27-08-07 to 30-06-08 in the pay band Rs. 5200-20200 + GP 2800  fixed as  Rs. 10200 + GP 2800
    01-07-08 to 30-06-09 in the pay band Rs. 5200-20200 + GP 2800  fixed as  Rs. 10590 + GP 2800
    01-07-09 to         –        in the pay band Rs. 5200-20200 + GP 2800  fixed as  Rs. 11000 + GP 2800
    And also recovery made by office for excess amount drawn earlier.

           After clarification received from DOPT OM No. 35034/3/2008-Estt(D) dt. 19-05-09, Office have again refix my pay as :  
     2nd ACP w.e.f. 27-08-2007, Upgraded pay scale 5000-150-8000, in the prerevised scale  fixed Rs. 5300 

    In the revised pay scale PB 9300-34800 my pay fixed  9860 + GP 4200
    27-08-07 to 30-06-08 in the pay band Rs. 9300-34800  + GP 4200  fixed as  Rs. 9860 + GP 4200  
    01-07-08 to 30-06-09 in the pay band Rs. 9300-34800  + GP 4200  fixed as  Rs. 10290 + GP 4200  
    01-07-09 to 30-06-10 in the pay band Rs. 9300-34800  + GP 4200  fixed as  Rs. 10730 + GP 4200  
    I haven’t get any financial benefit from 01-01-2006 while in other offices, in such cases, they have  ignored the immediate next higher grade pay & people got arrears w.e.f. 01-01-2006. 

                  Please clarify  at the earliest, whether the fixation made is right  or shall I get  the financial benefit  w.e.f. 01-01-2006.
     
    Thanking you,

  5.    Person X appointed on compensation ground since Feb.,2007 as a L.D.C. &   has promoted as U.D.C. While he has completed only five years of service in the post of LDC.  Is he liable to get promotion.
     

  6. Sir,

From 01.01.2006 i opt new pay scale 6CPC and received arrears. My 2 financial upgradation is due on 01.09.2007 under ACP. My office is to be fixed my pay in the scale 9300-34800 with GP 4200/- (old scale 5000-8000) as this deptt. has not post between 4000-6000 to 5000-6000.

    Please clarify that arrears received w.e.f. 01.01.2006 to 30.08.2007 in the new pay scale have returned to the deptt. or not.

  7. I joined Railways as Commercial clerk on 16.07.1990. I was promoted as Sr. CC in 1994(1200-2040), selected and promoted as Commercial controller(5000-8000) in may 1995. pl let me know when I am eligible for ACP/MACP.

  8. Sir,
    I have join the service as Junior Engineer (Civil) on 01.09.2003 and scale 4500-125-7000. But that time as per CPWD norms my scale Rs 5000-150-8000, accordingly I was claimed for correction of my scale which was not corrected that time. As per 6th pay commission my department was not corrected my pay band and given the pay band PB 1 – 5200-20200 (G. P-2800) instead of 9300-34800 (GP-4200). But I got first MACP after rendered 10 years services 01.09.2013 in pre-revised pay scale of 9300-34800 (GP-4200).
    But Ministry of Health, GOI corrected the pay band 9300-34800 (GP-4200) as Junior Engineer (Civil) since w.e.f 01.01.2006. and present drawn the salary as per correct pay band i.e 9300-34800 (GP-4200)
    Sir my department now MACP proposed w.e.f 2006 to 2016, but my sevice joining date as Junior Engineer (CivIl) was 01.09.2003. So, Sir give me a exact MACP period which will correct 01.09.2003 to 01.09.2013 or 2006 to 2016 and what will be my present MACP Grade pay. It’s right or wrong

    1. MACP is all about three financial benefits from the core pay scale from the date of first appointment within thirty years of service i.e. 10th, 20th and 30th year. The financial upgradation will be in the hierarchical grade pay. The core pay scale of Junior Engineer is PB-2 9300-34800 + GP 4200 and 1st financial benefit will be GP Rs.4600 on the same PB after completion of 10 years of service as Junior Engineer.
