(A) in the case of all employees:-

(i) the pay in the pay band/pay scale will be determined by multiplying the existing basic pay as on 1.1.2006 by a factor of 1.86 and rounding off the resultant figure to the next multiple of 10.

(ii) if the minimum of the revised pay band/ pay scale is more than the amount arrived at as per (i) above, the pay shall be fixed at the minimum of the revised pay band/pay scale;

Provided further that:-

Where, in the fixation of pay, the pay of Railway servants drawing pay at two or more consecutive stages in an existing scale gets bunched, that is to say, gets fixed in the revised pay structure at the same stage in the pay band, then, for every two stages so bunched, benefit of one increment shall be given so as to avoid bunching of more than two stages in the revised running pay bands. For this purpose, the increment will be calculated on the pay in the pay band. Grade pay would not be taken into account for the purpose of granting increments to alleviate bunching.

In the case of pay scales in higher administrative grade (HAG) in the pay band PB-4, benefit of increments due to bunching shall be given taking into account all the stages in different pay scales in this grade. In the case of HAG+ scale, benefit of one increment for every two stages in the pre-revised scale will be granted in the revised pay scale.

If by stepping up of the pay as above, the pay of a Railway servant gets fixed at a stage in the revised pay band/ pay scale (where applicable) which is higher than the stage in the revised pay band at which the pay of a Railway servant who was drawing pay at the next higher stage or stages in the same existing scale is fixed, the pay of the latter shall also be stepped up only to the extent by which it falls short of that of the former.

(iii) The pay in the pay band will be determined in the above manner. In addition to the pay in the pay band, grade pay corresponding to the existing scale will be payable.

Note - Illustration 1 on the above is provided in the Explanatory Memorandum to these Rules.

(B) In the case of employees who are in receipt of special pay/allowance in addition to pay in the existing scale which has been recommended for replacement by a pay band and grade pay without any special pay/allowance, pay shall be fixed in the revised pay structure in accordance with the provisions of clause (A) above.

(C) In the case of employees who are in receipt of special pay component with any other nomenclature in addition to pay in the existing scales, such as personal pay for promoting small family norms, special pay to Parliament Assistants, Central (Deputation on Tenure) Allowance, etc., and in whose case the same has been replaced in the revised pay structure with corresponding allowance/pay at the same rate or at a different rate, the pay in the revised pay structure shall be fixed in accordance with the provisions of clause (A) above. In such cases, the allowance at the new rate as recommended shall be drawn in addition to pay in the revised pay structure from the date specified in the individual notifications related to these allowances.

4

(D) In the case of medical officers who are in receipt of non-practising allowance, the pay in the revised pay structure shall be fixed in accordance with the provisions of clause (A) above except that, in such cases, the pre-revised dearness allowance appropriate to the non-practising allowance admissible at index average 536 (1982 = 100) shall be added while fixing the pay in the revised pay band, and in such cases, non-practising allowance at the new rates shall be drawn with effect from 1.1.2006 or the date of option for revised pay structure, in addition to the pay so fixed in the revised pay structure. Illustration 2 in this regard is in the Explanatory Memorandum to these Rules.

Note 1 - (a) In the case of Group D employees, the pay in the revised pay structure will be fixed initially in the -1S pay band as per Clause (A) above with the appropriate grade pay and arrears paid accordingly. Thereafter, pay of such of those Group D employees who already possess the revised minimum qualifications recommended by the Commission prescribed for entry into PB-1 would be fixed with effect from 1.1.2006 in PB-1 with grade pay of Rs.1800.

(b) Such of those existing Group D employees who do not possess the revised minimum qualifications for entry into PB-1 would be retrained by the concerned Department preferably within a period of six months so that payment of arrears on account of upgradation are not delayed. After re-training, these Group D staff will also be placed in the Pay Band PB-1 with the grade pay of Rs.1800 with effect from 1.1.2006 and arrears drawn accordingly. Once placed in the PB-1 Pay Band, this category of Group D staff will regain their seniority vis-à-vis the other category of Group D staff that already possessed the minimum qualifications and were, therefore, placed in the PB-1 Pay Band as on 1.1.2006. Inter-se seniority of all the employees in erstwhile Group D will be fully maintained with Group D employee in a higher pre-revised pay scale being placed higher vis-à-vis an employee in a lower pay scale. Within the same pre-revised pay scale, seniority which existed prior to revision would continue.

(c) Arrears shall be payable with effect from 1.1.2006 in both the cases i.e. to those Group D employees who possess the qualifications and are placed in PB-1 straight away and those Group D employees who do not possess the qualifications and are placed after re-training. Illustration 3 in regard to fixation of pay for Group D staff is in the Explanatory Memorandum to these Rules.

Note 2 A - Where a post has been upgraded as a result of the recommendations of the Sixth CPC as indicated in the Schedule to these Rules, the fixation of pay in the applicable pay band will be done in the manner prescribed in accordance with Clause (A) (i) and (ii) of Rule 7 by multiplying the existing basic pay as on 1.1.2006 by a factor of 1.86 and rounding the resultant figure to the next multiple of ten. The grade pay corresponding to the upgraded scale will be payable in addition. Illustration 4 A in this regard is in the Explanatory Memorandum to these Rules.

Note 2 B- In the case of merger of pay scales, pay in the revised pay bands will be fixed in the manner prescribed in accordance with clause [A][i] and [ii] of Rule 7 by multiplying the existing basic pay as on 1.1.2006 by a factor of 1.86 and rounding the resultant figure to the next multiple of ten. The grade pay corresponding to the merged scale will be payable in addition. Illustration 4 B in this regard is in the Explanatory Memorandum to these Rules.

Note 3 - A Railway servant who is on leave on the 1st day of January, 2006 and is entitled to leave salary shall become entitled to pay in the revised pay structure from 1.1.2006 or the date of option for the revised pay structure. Similarly, where a Railway servant is on study leave on the first day of January, 2006 he will be entitled to the benefits under these Rules from 1.1.2006 or the date of option.

Note 4 - A Railway servant under suspension, shall continue to draw subsistence allowance based on existing scale of pay and his pay in the revised pay structure will be subject to the final order on the pending disciplinary proceedings.

5

Note 5 - Where a Railway servant is holding a permanent post and is officiating in a higher post on a regular basis and the scales applicable to these two posts are merged into one scale, the pay shall be fixed under this sub-rule with reference to the officiating post only, and the pay so fixed shall be treated as substantive pay.

The provisions of this Note shall apply mutatis mutandis, to Railway servants holding in an officiating capacity, posts on different existing scales which have been replaced by the revised pay structure.

Note 6 - Where the `existing emoluments’ exceed the revised emoluments in the case of any Railway servant, the difference shall be allowed as personal pay to be absorbed in future increases in pay.

Note 7 - Where in the fixation of pay under sub-rule (1), the pay of a Railway servant, who, in the existing scale was drawing immediately before the 1st day of January, 2006 more pay than another Railway servant junior to him in the same cadre, gets fixed in the revised pay band at a stage lower than that of such junior, his pay shall be stepped upto the same stage in the revised pay band as that of the junior.

Note 8 - Where a Railway servant is in receipt of personal pay on the 1st day of January, 2006, which together with his existing emoluments exceeds the revised emoluments, then, the difference representing such excess shall be allowed to such Railway servant as personal pay to be absorbed in future increases in pay.

Note 9 - In the case of employees who are in receipt of personal pay for passing Hindi Pragya, Hindi Typewriting, Hindi Shorthand and such other examinations under the “Hindi Teaching Scheme”, or on successfully undergoing training in cash and accounts matters prior to the 1st day of January, 2006, while the personal pay shall not be taken into account for purposes of fixation of initial pay in the revised pay structure, they would continue to draw personal pay after fixation of their pay in the revised pay structure on and from the 1st day of January, 2006 or subsequently for the period for which they would have drawn it but for the fixation of their pay in the revised pay structure. The quantum of such personal pay would be paid at the appropriate rate of increment in the revised pay structure from the date of fixation of pay for the period for which the employee would have continued to draw it.

Explanation - For the purpose of this Note, “appropriate rate of increment in the revised pay structure” means 3% of the sum of the pay in the pay band and the grade pay at the stage at which the pay of the employee is fixed in the revised pay structure.

Note 10 - In cases where a senior Railway servant promoted to a higher post before the 1st day of January, 2006 draws less pay in the revised pay structure than his junior who is promoted to the higher post on or after the 1st day of January, 2006, the pay in the pay band of the senior Railway servant should be stepped up to an amount equal to the pay in the pay band as fixed for his junior in that higher post. The stepping up should be done with effect from the date of promotion of the junior Railway servant subject to the fulfillment of the following conditions, namely: -

(a) both the junior and the senior Railway servants should belong to the same cadre and the posts in which they have been promoted should be identical in the same cadre.

(b) the pre-revised scale of pay and the revised grade pay of the lower and higher posts in which they are entitled to draw pay should be identical.

(c) the senior Railway servants at the time of promotion should have been drawing equal or more pay than the junior.

(d) the anomaly should be directly as a result of the application of the provisions of FR 22 of Indian Railway Establishment Code Volume II or any other rule or order regulating pay fixation on such promotion in the revised pay structure. If even in the lower post, the

6

junior officer was drawing more pay in the pre-revised scale than the senior by virtue of any advance increments granted to him, provision of this Note need not be invoked to step up the pay of the senior officer.

(2) Subject to the provisions of rule 5, if the pay as fixed in the officiating post under sub-rule (1) is lower than the pay fixed in the substantive post, the former shall be fixed at the stage next above the substantive pay.

8. Fixation of pay in the revised pay structure of employees appointed as fresh recruits on or after 1.1.2006 – Section II of Part A of the First Schedule of these Rules indicates the entry level pay in the pay band at which the pay of direct recruits to a particular post carrying a specific grade pay will be fixed on or after 1.1.2006.

This will also be applied in the case of those recruited between 1.1.2006 and the date of issue of this Notification. In such cases, where the emoluments in the pre-revised pay scale(s) [i.e., basic pay in the pre-revised pay scale(s) plus Dearness Pay plus Dearness Allowance applicable on the date of joining] exceeds the sum of the pay fixed in the revised pay structure and the applicable dearness allowance thereon, the difference shall be allowed as personal pay to be absorbed in future increments in pay.

9. Rate of increment in the revised pay structure –The rate of increment in the revised pay structure will be 3% of the sum of the pay in the pay band and grade pay applicable, which will be rounded off to the next multiple of 10. The amount of increment will be added to the existing pay in the pay band. Illustration 5 in this regard is in the Explanatory Memorandum to these Rules. In the case of PB-3, variable rates of increment at 3% and 4% have been provided. The higher rate of increment will be granted to not more than 20% of the strength of officers in PB-3.

Separate instructions in regard to variable increment will be issued through executive orders.

10. Date of next increment in the revised pay structure - There will be a uniform date of annual increment, viz. 1st July of every year. Employees completing 6 months and above in the revised pay structure as on 1st of July will be eligible to be granted the increment. The first increment after fixation of pay on 1.1.2006 in the revised pay structure will be granted on 1.7.2006 for those employees for whom the date of next increment was between 1st July, 2006 to 1st January, 2007.

Provided that in the case of persons who had been drawing maximum of the existing scale for more than a year as on the 1st day of January, 2006, the next increment in the revised pay structure shall be allowed on the 1st day of January, 2006. Thereafter, the provision of Rule 10 would apply.

Provided that in cases where an employee reaches the maximum of his pay band, shall be placed in the next higher pay band after one year of reaching such a maximum. At the time of placement in the higher pay band, benefit of one increment will be provided. Thereafter, he will continue to move in the higher pay band till his pay in the pay band reaches the maximum of PB-4, after which no further increments will be granted.

Note 1 - In cases where two existing scales, one being a promotional scale for the other, are merged, and the junior Government servant, now drawing his pay at equal or lower stage in the lower scale of pay, happens to draw more pay in the pay band in the revised pay structure than the pay of the senior Railway servant in the existing higher scale, the pay in the pay band of the senior Railway servant hall be stepped up to that of his junior from the same date and he shall draw next increment in accordance with Rule 10.

11. Fixation of pay in the revised pay structure subsequent to the 1st day of January, 2006. - Where a Railway servant continues to draw his pay in the existing scale and is brought over to the revised pay structure from a date later than the 1st day of January, 2006, his pay from the later date in the revised pay structure shall be fixed in the following manner:-

(i) Pay in the pay band will be fixed by adding the basic pay applicable on the later date, the dearness pay applicable on that date and the pre-revised dearness allowance based on rates applicable as on 1.1.2006. This figure will be rounded off to the next multiple of 10 and

7

will then become the pay in the applicable pay band. In addition to this, the grade pay corresponding to the pre-revised pay scale will be payable. Where the Railway servant is in receipt of special pay or non-practising allowance, the methodology followed will be as prescribed in Rule 7 (i), (B), (C) or (D) as applicable, except that the basic pay and dearness pay to be taken into account will be the basic pay and dearness pay applicable as on that date but dearness allowance will be calculated as per rates applicable on 1.1.2006.

12. Fixation of pay on reappointment after the 1st day of January, 2006 to a post held prior to that date - A Railway servant who had officiated in a post prior to the 1st day of January, 2006 but was not holding that post on that date and who on subsequent appointment to that post draws pay in the revised pay structure shall be allowed the benefit of the proviso to Fundamental Rule 22, to the extent it would have been admissible had he been holding that post on the 1 st day of January, 2006, and had elected the revised pay structure on and from that date.

13. Fixation of pay on promotion on or after 1.1.2006 – In the case of promotion from one grade pay to another in the revised pay structure, the fixation will be done as follows:-

(i) One increment equal to 3% of the sum of the pay in the pay band and the existing grade pay will be computed and rounded off to the next multiple of 10. This will be added to the existing pay in the pay band. The grade pay corresponding to the promotion post will thereafter be granted in addition to this pay in the pay band. In cases where promotion involves change in the pay band also, the same methodology will be followed. However, if the pay in the pay band after adding the increment is less than the minimum of the higher pay band to which promotion is taking place, pay in the pay band will be stepped to such minimum.

(ii) In the case of promotion from PB-4 to HAG+, after adding one increment in the manner prescribed in Rule 9, the pay in the pay band and existing grade pay will be added and the resultant figure will become the basic pay in HAG+. This shall not exceed Rs. 80,000, the maximum of the scale. For Railway servants in receipt of NPA, pay plus NPA will not exceed Rs. 85,000.

14. Mode of payment of arrears of pay - The arrears shall be paid in cash in two instalments. The first instalment should be restricted to 40% of the total arrears. The remaining 60% of arrears should be paid during the next financial year.

Explanation - For the purposes of this rule:

(a) “arrears of pay” in relation to a Railway servant, means the difference between:

(i) the aggregate of the pay and allowances to which he is entitled on account of the revision of his pay and allowances under these rules, for the relevant period. Revised allowances (except for dearness allowance and non-practising allowance) will be payable only with effect from 1.9.2008; and

(ii) the aggregate of the pay and allowances to which he would have been entitled (whether such pay and allowances had been received or not) for that period had his pay and allowances not been so revised.

(b) “relevant period” means the period commencing on the 1st day of January, 2006 and ending with the 31st August, 2008.

15. Overriding effect of Rules - The provisions of the Railway Fundamental rules, the Railway Services (Revision of Pay) Rules, 1947, the Railway Services (Authorised Pay ) Rules, 1960, the Railway Services (Revised Pay) Rules, 1973, Railway Services (Revised Pay) Rules, 1986 and Railway Services (Revised Pay) Rules, 1997 shall not, save as otherwise provided in these rules, apply to cases where pay is regulated under these rules, to the extent they are inconsistent with these rules.16. Power to relax - Where the President is satisfied that the operation of all or any of the provisions of these rules causes undue hardship in any particular case, he may, by order, dispense with or relax the requirements of that rule to such extent and subject to such conditions as he may consider necessary for dealing with the case in a just and equitable manner.

8

17. Interpretation - If any question arises relating to the interpretation of any of the provisions of these rules, it shall be referred to the Railway Board for decision.

MEMORANDUM EXPLANATORY TO THE RAILWAY SERVICES(REVISED PAY ) RULES , 2008

Rule 1 - This rule is self-explanatory.

Rule 2 - This rule lays down the categories of employees to whom the rules apply. Except for the categories excluded under clause (2), the rules are applicable to all persons under the rule making control of the President serving under the administrative control of the Railway Board.

Rule 3 & 4 - These rules are self-explanatory.

Rule 5 - The intention is that all Railway servants should be brought over to the revised pay structure except those who elect to draw pay in the existing scales. Those who exercise the option to continue on the existing scales of pay will continue to draw the dearness allowance at the rates in force on the 1st January, 2006 and the dearness allowance will count towards the emoluments for pension, etc. to the extent it so counted on the said date. If a Railway servant is holding a permanent post in a substantive capacity and officiating in a higher post, or would have officiated in one or more posts but for his being on deputation etc., he has the option to retain the existing scale only in respect of one scale. Such a Railway servant may retain the existing scale applicable to a permanent post or any one of the officiating posts. In respect of the remaining posts he will necessarily have to be brought over to the revised pay structure.

Rule 6 - This rule prescribes the manner in which option has to be exercised and also the authority who should be apprised of such option. The option has to be exercised in the appropriate form appended to the rules. It should be noted that it is not sufficient for a Railway servant to exercise the option within the specified time limit but also to ensure that it reaches the prescribed authority within the time limit. In the case of persons who are outside India at the time these rules are promulgated, the period within which the option has to be exercised is three months from the date they take over charge of the post in India. In the case of Railway servants the revised pay structure of whose posts are announced subsequent to the date of issue of these rules, the period of three months will run from the date of such announcement.

Persons who have retired between 1st January 2006 and the date of issue of these rules are also eligible to exercise option.

Rule 7(1) - This rule deals with the actual fixation of pay in the existing scales on 1 st January, 2006. A few illustrations indicating the manner in which pay of Railway servants should be fixed under this sub-rule subject to stepping up of pay under Notes below rule 7(1) are given in the attached Annexure.

Rule 7(2) - The benefit of this rule is not admissible in cases where a Railway servant has elected the revised pay structure in respect of his substantive post, but has retained the existing scale in respect of an officiating post.

Rule 8 - This Rule prescribes the method of fixation of pay of employees appointed as fresh recruits on or after 1.1.2006.

Rule 9 & 10 - These rules prescribe the manner in which the next increment in the new scale should be regulated. The provisos to this rule are intended to eliminate the anomalies of junior Railway servants drawing more pay than their senior by the operation of substantive part of this rule and also taking care of the Railway servants who have been drawing pay at the maximum of the existing scale for more than one year as on 1.1.2006 and also those Railway servants who have been stagnating at the maximum of the existing scale and are actually in receipt of stagnation increment on ad hoc basis.

Rule 11 to 17 - These rules are self-explanatory.

Mathew John, Secretary, Railway Board.

Copy of Railway Board’s letter No.PC-VI/2008/I/RSRP/I dated 11.09.2008 (RBE No.108/2008)

Sub: Railway Services [Revised Pay] Rules, 2008 – Schedules of Revised Scales of Pay.

***Reference Railway Services [Revised Pay] Rules, 2008, notified vide G.S.R. No. 643-E dated

4.9.2008 and forwarded with Railway Board’s endorsement No. PC-VI/2008/I/RSRP/1 dated 4.9.2008 on the above subject.

2. Schedule in two parts viz. Annexure ‘A’ and ‘B’ showing the revised pay structure applicable to the various categories of Railway employees in Group ‘D’, ‘C’, ‘B’ and ‘A’ is enclosed. Notification for Group ‘A’ and ‘B’ where higher replacement pay structure is to be given will be issued separately. The revised pay structure take effect from 1st January, 2006. The schedule has the sanction of the President.

3. In terms of Rule 6 of the Railway Services [Revised Pay] Rules, 2008, Railway servants are required to exercise their options in the format appended as Second Schedule to the Rules. The sequence of action to be taken on receipt of the option will be as follows:

[i] The manner of initial fixation of pay in the revised pay structure has been indicated in Rule 7 of the Railway Services [Revised Pay] Rules, 2008. On the basis of this Rule, detailed Fixation Tables for each stage in each of the pre-revised scales have been circulated by the Ministry of Finance under their OM No. F. No. 1/1/2008-IC dated 30.08.2008. The Fixation Tables pertaining to the scales of pay structure as applicable in the First Schedule to the Ministry of Railways’ notification referred to above and Schedules annexed with this letter are enclosed as Annex-E of this letter. These may be used for the purpose of fixation in the revised pay structure as on 1.1.2006. The detailed Fixation Tables in respect of running staff are being issued separately.

[ii] The Tables in Annex-E will be applicable in cases where the Government has approved normal replacement pay scales. In cases of upgradation of posts and merger of pre-revised pay scales, fixation of pay will be done as prescribed in Note 2A and 2B below Rule 7[1] and in the manner indicated in illustration 4A & 4B respectively of the Explanatory Memorandum to the Railway Services [Revised Pay] Rules, 2008.

[iii] In terms of the Railway Services [Revised Pay] Rules, 2008, there shall be a uniform date of increment i.e. 1st July of the year after implementation of the revised pay structure. Consequently in the case of employees whose date of next increment falls on 1.1.2006, the increment will be drawn in the pre-revised scale and pay fixed in accordance with the tables after including this increment. The next increment in the revised pay structure in such cases will be drawn on 1st July 2006.

[iv] On fixation of pay in the applicable revised pay bands and grade pay or in the pay scale, as the case may be pay and allowances for the month of September, 2008 [or wage period of September –October, 2008] may be drawn and paid on the basis of the revised pay structure and the applicable allowances thereon after deduction of enhanced subscription to the State Railway Provident Fund which will be calculated with reference to the revised basic pay. Insofar as the employees who have joined on or after 1.1.2004 are concerned, the enhanced deductions under the New Pension Scheme will be calculated with reference to the revised basic pay and DA thereon.

“Basic Pay” in the revised pay structure means the pay drawn in the prescribed pay band plus the applicable grade pay but does not include any other type of pay like special pay, etc. In the case of

15

Government servants in the pay scales of HAG+ and above, basic pay means the pay in the prescribed scale.

[v] Bills may be draw separately in respect of the arrears of pay and allowances for the period from January 1, 2006 to August 31, 2008. The aggregate arrears computed after deduction of subscription at enhanced rates of SRPF and New Pension Scheme with reference to the revised pay, may be paid in two instalments, the first being restricted to 40% of the aggregate arrears. DDOs/PAOs concerned will ensure that action is taken simultaneously in regard to Government’s contribution towards enhanced subscription. Orders in regard to the payment of the second instalment of arrears will be issued separately.

[vi] Similar sequential action as indicated above may be taken for the authorization of the revised pay and allowances of those employees whose options might be received later.

4. The revised rates of all allowances, such as House Rent Allowance, Transport Allowance, Children Education Allowance, Special Compensatory Allowance, Special Duty Allowance etc. will be paid prospectively w.e.f. 1.09.08. Accordingly, no arrears will be paid in respect of these allowances. However, Dearness Allowance and Non-Practising Allowance for medical doctors at rates notified separately, will be payable w.e.f. 1.1.2006 or from the date of option.

5. With a view to expediting the authorization and disbursement of arrears, it has been decided that the arrear claims may be paid without pre-check of the fixation of pay in the revised scales of pay. The facility to disburse the arrears without pre-check of fixation of pay will not, however, be available in respect of those Government servants who have relinquished service on account of dismissal, resignation, discharge, retirement etc. after the date of implementation of the Pay Commission’s recommendations but before the preparation and drawal of the arrear claims, as well as in respect of those employees who has expired prior to exercising their option for the drawal of pay in the revised scales.

6. In order to ensure correct and systematic fixation of pay in the revised pay structure, a Proforma for the purpose [Statement of Fixation of Pay is enclosed [Annex-C]. The statement should be prepared in triplicate and one copy thereof should be pasted in the Service Book of the Railway employee, the second copy kept for office record and the third copy to be set to the Accounts Officer for post check. The instalment of Dearness Allowance sanctioned from 1.7.2006 onwards in the present scale will be adjusted against the instalments & Dearness Allowance payable under revised formula in the arrears on account of revision of pay scales. 7. The requirement of pre-check of pay fixation having dispensed with, it is not unlikely that the arrears due in some cases may be computed incorrectly leading to overpayments that might have to be recovered subsequently. The Drawing & Disbursing Officers should, therefore make it clear to the employees under their administrative control, while disbursing the arrears, that the payments are being made subject to adjustment from amounts that may be due to them subsequently should any discrepancies be noticed later. For this purpose, an undertaking may also be obtained in writing from every employee at the time of disbursement of the arrears/pay and allowances for September, 2008 [or wage period of September-October] to the effect that any excess payment that may be found to have been made as a result of incorrect fixation of pay in the revised scales will be refunded by him to Government either by adjustment against future payments or otherwise. A specimen form of the undertaking is also enclosed [Annex-D].

8. In authorizing the arrears, Income Tax due may also be deducted and credited to Government in accordance with the instructions on the subject. In case a Government servant wishes to deposit his arrears in his State Railway Provident Fund account, this may be permitted.

9. On receipt of the necessary options action for drawal and disbursement of arrears should be completed immediately.

Sub: Sixth CPC Recommendation as accepted by Government – Training of Group ‘D’ staff for placement in PB-1 Grade Pay Rs.1800/-.

….The Sixth Pay Commission has recommended that the existing Group ‘D’ category employees

should be upgraded to Group ‘C’ in Pay Band 1 Grade Pay Rs.1800. Those employees who do not possess minimum qualifications prescribed should be trained with emphasis on multi-skilling and upgraded. The Government has since accepted the recommendation.

2. Accordingly, Railways are required to take following action:

i] Identify the existing Group ‘D’ staff who do not possess the qualification of Matric /ITI.

ii] Such staff should be imparted suitable training by the concerned executive department with emphasis on multi-skilling.

iii] The job content of the trained staff would thus include multiple task handling which would facilitate putting a single employee to perform a number of jobs/tasks.

iv] Most of the staff have long years of experience and already perform tasks which require multiple skills. These staff would require guidance to make them adequately trained.

v] Training should be imparted on seniority basis [i.e staff in regular Group ‘D’ scale at higher seniority positions should be trained first] so that a senior Group ‘D’ staff due for training is not over-taken by a similar junior Group ‘D’ staff.

vi] It is expected that Railways would meet the target of training the staff at the earliest.

3. Detailed instructions regarding procedure for placement in Pay Band 1 Grade Pay 1800/- will be issued separately.

While fixing the pay of Railway servants under Railway Services (Revised Pay) Rules, 2008, necessary action may be taken according to the clarification issued by Board in its said letter.

Copy of Railway Board’s letter No.PC-VI/2008/1/RSRP/1 dated 25.09.2008[ RBE No.132/2008, PC-VI No.22]

Sub: Clarifications on Railway Services (Revised Pay) Rules, 2008.

42

***The undersigned is directed to refer to the Railway Services [Revised Pay] Rules, 2008, notified

vide G.S.R. No. 643[E] dated 4th September, 2008 and to state that clarifications are being sought regarding the date of next increment, the method of fixation of pay on promotion after 01.01.2006, use of fitment tables for cases of pay fixation under Rule 11 of RS[RP] Rules, 2008, fixation of pay of railway servants who were on deputation on 1.1.06 and got promoted in the cadre subsequently while still on deputation etc.

2. In this connection, the following clarifications are issued:

Clarification 1: The date of next increment

[i] As per Rule 10 of RS[RP] Rules, 2008 there will be one uniform date of annual increment, viz., 1st July of every year. Railway servants completing 6 months and above in the revised pay structure as on 1st of July will be eligible to be granted the increment. Accordingly, all railway servants who earned their last increment between 02.01.2005 and 01.01.2006 would get their next increment on 01.07.2006.

[ii] For those employees whose date of next increment falls on 01.01.2006, the instructions already provide for granting an increment in the pre-revised pay scale as on 01.01.2006 and then fixing their pay in the revised pay scales. Such railway servants would also get their next increment on 01.07.2006.

Clarification 2: The method of fixation of pay on promotion after 01.01.2006:

On promotion from one grade to another /financial upgradation under ACP, a railway servant has an option under Rule 1313 [FR22[I][a][1] Indian Railway Establishment Code Vol.II [Sixth Edition 1987 -2nd Reprint, 2005] to get his pay fixed in the higher post either from the date of his promotion, or from date of his next increment, viz., 1st July of the year. The pay will be fixed in the following manner in the revised pay structure:

[a] In case the railway servant opts to get his pay fixed from his date of next increment, then , on the date of promotion, pay in the pay band shall continue unchanged, but the grade pay of the higher post will be granted. Further refixation will be done on the date of his next increment i.e. 1st July. On that day, he will be granted two increments; one annual increment and the second on account of promotion. While computing these two increments, basic pay prior to the date of promotion shall be taken into account. To illustrate, if the basic pay prior to the date of promotion was Rs.100, first increment would be computed on Rs.100 and the second on Rs.103.

[b] In case the railway servant opts to get his pay fixed in the higher grade form the date of his promotion, he shall get his first increment in the higher grade on the next 1st July if he was promoted between 2nd July and 1st January. However, if he was promoted between 2nd January and 30th June of a particular year, he shall get his increment on 1st July of next year.

Clarification 3: Use of fitment tables for cases of pay fixation under Rule 11 of RS[RP] Rules, 2008.

Rule 11 of RS[RP] Rules, 2008 provides for fixation of pay in the revised pay structure subsequent to the 1st day of January, 2006. When the pay of a railway servant will be fixed as per Rule 11 on a date subsequent to 01.01.2006, the fitment tables annexed with Board’s letter of even number dated 11.09.2008 will be used as prescribed in the relevant provisions contained in para 2 of the said letter. The pre-revised pay to be reckoned in such cases will be the pay of the railway servant on the day of such fixation.

Clarification 4: Fixation of pay of railway servants who were on deputation and got promoted in the cadre subsequently while still on deputation.

[i] In case the railway servant was on deputation on 1.1.06 and got promoted to a higher post in his cadre after 1.1.06, but was not granted proforma promotion under the ‘Next Below Rule’, his pay will get fixed w.e.f. 1.1.06 in the grade which he was holding on 1.1.06.

43

[ii] In case the railway servant had been granted proforma promotion under the ‘Next Below Rule’, his pay will be fixed using the provisions of ‘Next Below Rule’ as explained in [iii] below:

[iii] In the revised pay structure, the pay of a Railway servant would be regulated in the following manner on grant of proforma promotion to him under ‘Next Below Rule.’

[a] In case a Railway servant on deputation to a post gets promoted in his cadre to a post in a higher grade, his pay in the pay band will be fixed with reference to the pay in the pay band of the employee immediately junior to him in the cadre of his service. However, the railway servant in question would continue to draw the grade pay attached to the deputation post for the remaining duration of the deputation.

[b] In case a Railway servant on deputation to a post in PB-4 gets promoted in his cadre to a post in HAG+, his basic pay will be fixed with reference to the basic pay of the employee immediately junior to him in the cadre of his service, but the total of pay in the pay band and grade pay of the deputation post will not exceed Rs.79, 000.

[c] In case a Railway servant on deputation to a post in PB-4 gets promoted in his cadre to a post in the apex scale, his basic pay will be fixed with reference to the basic pay of the employee immediately junior to him in the cadre of his service, but the total of pay in the pay band and grade pay of the deputation post will not exceed Rs.79,000.

[d] In case a Railway servant on deputation to a post in HAG+ gets promoted in his cadre to a post in the apex scale, his basic pay will be fixed with reference to the basic pay of the employee immediately junior to him in the cadre of his service.

Clarification 5: Fixation of pay of Railway servants who go on deputation to a lower post.

[i] In case a Railway servant goes on deputation to a post carrying a lower grade pay, his pay in the pay band would continue unchanged, but he will be granted the grade pay of the lower post for the entire duration of the deputation.

[ii] In case a Railway servant in HAG+ scale goes on deputation to a lower post in PB-4, his basic pay in the deputation post will be fixed at a stage equal to his basic pay in the cadre of his service, but the total of pay in the pay band and grade pay of the deputation post will not exceed Rs.79,000.

[iii] In case a Railway servant in the apex scale goes on deputation to a lower post in PB-4, his pay in the pay band will be fixed at the maximum of the PB-4 [Rs.67000] and he will be granted the grade pay attached to the deputation post, but the total of pay in the pay band and grade pay of the deputation post will not exceed Rs.79,000. In case deputation is from the apex scale to a post in HAG+, the basic pay will be protected in HAG+.

Clarification 6: Procedure for placing employees in upgraded scales in case of merger of scales / upgradations recommended by the Sixth CPC.

[i] Where all posts in one or more pre-revised scales are merged with a higher pre-revised scale and given a common replacement scale/grade pay, the suitability of the incumbents need not be assessed for granting them the higher replacement scale / grade pay and the incumbents will automatically be granted the replacement pay scale /grade pay recommended by the Commission. Their pay will be fixed in accordance with the fitment table annexed to Board’s letter of even number dated 11.09.08.[ii] Similarly, in the case of upgradations recommendation by the Pay Commission, i.e., where all posts in a particular grade have been granted a higher replacement pay scale / grade pay, the suitability of the incumbents need not be assessed for granting them the higher replacement scale/ grade pay. The incumbents will automatically be granted the replacement pay scale / grade pay recommended by the Commission. Their pay in the pay band will be fixed with reference to their fitment table corresponding to pre-revised pay scale. However, the grade pay corresponding to the upgraded post will be granted.Note: Railway Services [Revised Pay ] Rules, 2008 define the term ‘basic pay’ in the revised pay structure as the pay drawn in the prescribed pay band plus the applicable grade pay but does not

44

include any other type of pay like special pay, etc.. In the case of Railway servants in the pay scales of HAG+ and above, basic pay means the pay in the prescribed scale.

Subject: Fixation of pay in the pay bands where posts have been upgraded as a result of recommendations of Sixth CPC – Clarification regarding.

Note 2 A below Rule 7 of the RS(RP) Rules, 2008 states as under:-

“Note 2 A Where a post has been upgraded as a result of the recommendations of the Sixth CPC as indicated in the Schedule to these Rules, the fixation of pay in the applicable pay band will be done in the manner prescribed in accordance with Clause (A)(i) and (ii) of Rule 7 by multiplying the existing basic pay as on 01.01.2006 by a factor of 1.86 and rounding the resultant figure to the next multiple of ten. The grade pay corresponding to the upgraded scale will be payable in addition. Illustration 4/A in this regard is in the Explanatory Memorandum to these Rules”.

Accordingly, in cases of upgradation of posts as a result of recommendations of Sixth CPC, the fitment table attached with the letter of even number dated 11.09.2008 corresponding to the pre-revised scale shall be used for the purpose of determination of pay in the pay band. To the pay in the pay band so determined, the grade pay corresponding to the upgraded post is to be added. This will be the revised pay of the Railway Servant who has been upgraded as a Result of Sixth CPC recommendation.

To illustrate, RPF/RPSF Constables (Combatised) have been upgraded from pre-revised scale of Rs.3050-4590 to the pay scale of Rs.3200-4900 corresponding to the grade pay of Rs.2000 in PB-1. In the case of a RPF/RPSF Combatised Constable drawing the basic pay of Rs.3575 as on 01.01.2006, his pay in the pay band will be fixed in accordance with the fitment table of the pre-revised scale of Rs.3050-4590. Hence, his revised pay in the pay band will be Rs.6650 as per the table corresponding to the pre-revised scale of Rs.3050-4590. To this, the Grade Pay of Rs.2000 corresponding to the upgraded pay scale Rs.3200-4900 will be added. Consequently, his revised basic pay would be Rs.8650 as on 01.01.2006.

The above procedure is to be adopted in all cases where pay scales have been upgraded by the Pay Commission, including Constabulary and other Combatised ranks in the RPF/RPSF, Assistants and Section Officers in the Railway Board, Accounts staff and the common category cadres of Teachers and Nurses etc. This list is illustrative and not exhaustive. Similar procedure is to be adopted for Running Staff subject to the condition that in their case fitment tables circulated vide Board’s letter of even number dated 12.9.2008 will be used for determination of pay in the pay band.

All Zonal Railways/Production Units are directed to ensure that in no case is there any deviation from the above (subject to other provisions of RS(RP) Rules,2008). Pay fixed in the case of upgradations in any manner other than the above, will be rectified.

completion of 4 years of regular service in existing scale Rs.7500-12000 {PB-2 (Rs.9300-34800) GP Rs.4800}.

There will be no change in the existing classification of the posts as Group ‘B’ Gazetted on being operated in non-functional grade of PB-2 (Rs.9300-34800) GP Rs.5400.

Consequent upon introduction of non-functional grade in PB-2 (Rs.9300-34800) GP Rs.5400, the functional posts in existing scale Rs.8000-13500 (revised pay structure PB-2 (Rs.9300-34800), GP Rs.5400} designated as PPS Gr.II would not be operated as a separate functional grade. These posts in existing grade Rs.8000-13500 {PB-2 (Rs.9300-34800) GP Rs.5400} will also be filled up by those placed in PB-2 (Rs.9300-34800) GP Rs.5400 as per the new dispensation after clubbing the sanctioned strength of all the above posts in PB-2 (Rs.9300-34800) GP Rs.4800 and 5400 together. The existing incumbents holding posts of PPS Grade II in existing scale Rs.8000-13500 (PB-2 (Rs.9300-34800) GP Rs.5400) will be adjusted against the newly introduced nonfunctional Grade in PB-2 (Rs.9300-34800) GP Rs.5400. The existing incumbents in functional grade Rs.8000-13500/PB-2 (Rs.9300-34800) GP 5400 not adjusted in the new dispensation may continue to hold existing posts of PPS Gr.II on personal basis till they are so adjusted/vacate the posts.

These orders would be effective from 1.1.2006. Procedure for placement in the nonfunctional grade will be issued through separate instructions.

***As per recommendations of 6th CPC, instructions for placement and fixation of pay of Group

‘D’ Railway employees [other than RPF/RPSF] in Grade Pay Rs.1800 in Pay Band-1 [Rs.5200-20200] were issued vide Board’s letter of even number dated 29.10.2008 [RBE No. 160/2008].

In reference to above instructions, some of the Railways/Units have sought clarification regarding those Group ‘D’ staff who did not possess the revised minimum qualification, and have retired/ resigned /Voluntarily retired / expired during the period from 01.01.2006 till date of notification of the Revised Pay Rules – 2008, without getting retrained.

The matter has been examined in consultation with Ministry of Finance and the points of doubt raised by some of Zonal Railways / Units and the clarifications thereto are as under:S.No Point of doubt Clarification1 How will the pay of those Group ‘D’

officials who do not possess the minimum qualification and have retired / died in harness from 01.01.2006 till date be fixed in the revised structure? Whether they will be placed in -1S pay band or in the pay band PB-1

Those Group ‘D’ employees who did not possess the minimum qualification and who have retired / died in harness between 01.01.2006 and date of notification of Revised Pay Rules will be granted pay in -1S and the grade pay corresponding to their pre-revised pay scale as notified in Railway Services [Revised Pay] Rules-2008.

2 In the case of those Group ‘D’ officials who were in the pre-revised scale of Rs.2550-55-2660-3200 [e.g. Peon] and who are to be placed in the pay band PB-1 with Grade Pay of Rs. 1800 w.e.f. 01.01.2006 and are subsequently granted ACP /Promotion, is not clear as to what will be their grade pay. If the grade pay remains unchanged, the officials will not be getting any benefit on promotion / ACP. In case they are granted next higher grade in the hierarchy of revised pay structures, it will put seniors viz.Duftry / Senior Peons etc. at a disadvantageous position.

Railway servants who have been granted financial upgradation to a higher scale under the ACP scheme will be granted the grade pay corresponding to the higher pre-revised pay scale that was granted to them under ACP. However, in case of erstwhile Group ‘D’ employees, all such eligible employees will be granted grade pay of Rs.1800 in PB-1, irrespective of their pre-revised Group ‘d’ pay scale whether granted to them on regular appointment / promotion or under ACP.

Sub: Fixation of pay and grant of increments in the revised pay structure – clarifications reg.

***Following the notification of the Railway Services [Revised Pay] Rules, 2008, this Ministry has

received references from some Railways/ Production Units seeking clarification regarding various aspects of fixation of pay in the revised pay structure as also pay fixation and grant of increments in future under the revised pay structure. The matter has been examined in consultation with Ministry of Finance, Department of Expenditure. The points of doubt and the clarifications thereto are as under: S.No. Points of Doubt Clarifications1. As per the provisions of Rule 1313

{FR22[1][a][1]} of Indian Railway Establishment Code, Vol.II, [Sixth Edition 1987, 2nd Reprint, 2005] split option has to be submitted by the eligible employee [other than those appointed on deputation to ex-cadre post or ad hoc basis or on direct recruitment basis] within one month of promotion. Some of the employees promoted before 01.01.2006 as well as after 01.01.2006 but before notification of Railway Services [Revised Pay] Rules, 2008 implementing 6th CPC recommendations, had opted for their pay fixation on promotion from the date of their next increment which was falling after 01.01.2006 in the 5th CPC scales as per the rules / pay structure then in force. Consequent upon implementation of 6th

CPC in September 2008 effective from 01.01.2006, the option submitted by a number of employees has now turned to be disadvantageous. Whether such employees may be allowed to revise their options under Rule 1313 {FR 22 [I] [a] [1]}of Indian Railway Establishment Code, Vol.II [ Sixth Edition 1987, 2nd Reprint, 2005].

Railway Board’s letter No. E[P&A]II-2003/PP-1 dated 16.10.2003 provides that a Railway Servant may give a revised option for fixation under Rule 1313 {FR22[1][a][1]} of Indian Railway Establishment Code, Vol.II, [Sixth Edition 1987, 2nd Reprint, 2005] within one month from the date of orders of such unforeseen developments or change of rules. In any such cases that have resulted from the notification of Railway Services [Revised Pay] Rules, 2008, Railway servants may be allowed to exercise a revised option for fixation of their pay in the promotion post within one month from the date of issue of these clarifications.

2 As per Rule 5 of the Railway Services [Revised Pay] Rules, 2008 , a Railway Servant placed in a higher pay scale between 01.01.2006 and the date of notification of these rules on account of promotion, upgradation of pay scales etc. can elect to switch over to the revised pay structure from the date of such promotion [i.e. after placement in the promotional grade], upgradation etc. The employees promoted or upgraded to higher grade have option to have their pay fixed / re-fixed as

Proviso to Rule 5 of the Railway Services [Revised Pay] Rules, 2008 states that a Railway Servant may elect to continue to draw pay in the existing scale until the date on which he earns his next or any subsequent increment in the existing scale, or until he vacates his post, or ceases to draw pay in that scale.

The Rule ibid further provides that in cases where a Railway servant has been placed in a higher pay scale between 1.1.2006 and the

52

S.No. Points of Doubt Clarificationsper the provisions of Rule 1313 /1317 {FR 22 FR 23 }of Indian Railway Establishment Code, Vol.II [ Sixth Edition 1987, 2nd

Reprint, 2005] from the date of next increment etc.

Whether such employees covered by Rule 5 of Railway Services [Revised Pay] Rules, 2008, can also revise their options now to choose either from the date of promotion / upgradation or the date of increment etc. [ which may fall on the 1st July 2006, 2007, 2008 or 2009 etc.] as annual increment in the new structure is given uniformly on the 1st July?

Whether such option will also be available in the cases of ad-hoc promotions [whether or not followed by regularization without break].

date of notification of these Rules on account of promotion, upgradation of pay scale etc. the Railway servant may elect to switch over to the revised pay structure from the date of such promotion, upgradation etc.

It is clarified that such cases will be regulated under proviso to Rule 5 of the Railway Services [Revised Pay] Rules, 2008. After switching over to the revised pay structure, Clarification 2 [ the method of fixation of pay on promotion after 1.12006] issued vide Board’s letter of even number dated 25.9.08 will apply.

In the case of adhoc promotions granted between 1.1.2006 and date of notification of Railway Service [Revised Pay] Rules, 2008, a Railway servant has the option to have his pay fixed under proviso to Rule 5. However, Clarification 2 [ the method of fixation of pay on promotion after 1.12006] issued vide Board’s letter of even number dated 25.9.08 will not apply in such cases.

3 As per Rule 13 [i] of Railway Services [Revised Pay] Rules, 2008, in case of promotion from one grade pay to another and that involving change of pay band, one increment equal to 3% of basic may be allowed and in addition higher grade pay of the promotional post may also be allowed. As per clarification 2 of Board’s letter of even number dated 25.09.08 on promotion from one grade to another, a Railway servant has an option under Rule 1313 {FR 22 [I] [a] [1]}of Indian Railway Establishment Code, Vol.II [ Sixth Edition 1987, 2nd Reprint, 2005] to get his pay fixed in the higher post either from the date of his promotion or from the date of his next increment. As per the provisions of Rule 1313 {FR 22 [I] [a] [1]}of Indian Railway Establishment Code, Vol.II [ Sixth Edition 1987, 2nd Reprint, 2005] the benefit of fixation under above rule is admissible only in cases of appointment involving duties and responsibilities of greater importance. Further, the grant of option under above FR is also subject to the condition that the appointment is not on deputation on ex-cadre basis / ad-hoc or direct recruitment basis.

It is not clear whether:[a] Rule 1313 {FR 22 [I] [a] [1]}of Indian Railway Establishment Code, Vol.II [ Sixth Edition 1987, 2nd Reprint, 2005] still holds good in its present form with all the

Point No. [a] Rule 1313 {FR 22 [I] [a] [1]}of Indian Railway Establishment Code, Vol.II [ Sixth Edition 1987, 2nd Reprint, 2005] still holds good.

Point No. [b] & [c] : Clarification No. 2 of Board’s letter of even number dated 25.09.08 prescribes the method of fixation of pay under Rule 1313 {FR 22 [I] [a] [1]}of Indian Railway Establishment Code, Vol.II [ Sixth Edition 1987, 2nd Reprint, 2005] after introduction of the system of pay bands and grade pay.

4. Methodology for rounding off:As per Rule 9 of the notification, the rate of increment in the revised pay structure will be 3% of the sum of the pay in the pay band and grade pay applicable, which will be rounded off to the next multiple of 10. Whether rounding off to next multiple of 10 has to be done in terms of rupees or even a paisa has to be rounded off to next multiple of 10. For example, if the pay after drawal of increment works out to Rs.10510.10 the same has to be rounded off to 10520 or 10510.

In the case of Fitment Tables annexed with Board’s letter of even number dated 11.9.08 and 12.9.08 rounding off has already been done and the same should be implemented without any modification.

In the case of calculation of increments under the revised pay structure, paise should be ignored, but any amount of a rupee or more should be rounded off to next multiple of 10. To illustrate, if the amount of increment comes to Rs.1900.70 paise, then the amount will be rounded off to Rs.1900; if the amount of increment works out to be 1901, then it will be rounded off to Rs.1910.

5. Grant of stagnation increment:Whether the employees who have been granted stagnation increment between February 2005 or thereafter are to be granted additional increment w.e.f. 1.1.2006, while fixing the pay or not? Since they have reached at the maximum of the existing pay scale.

In all cases, where a Railway servant has been granted an increment [whether normal annual increment or stagnation increment] after January 1, 2005, no increment will be allowed on 1.1.2006 at the time of fixation of pay in the revised pay structure.

Necessary action may be taken accordingly.

Copy of Board’s letter No.PC-V/99/I/6/1 dated 19.02.2009, RBE No. 37/2009 ( PC-VI/80)

Sub: Stepping up of pay of Head Clerks at par with Senior Clerks in receipt of special pay of Rs.70/- p.m who on recommendation of Fifth CPC were upgraded as Head Clerks and placed in the same scale of Rs.5000-8000 w.e.f 1.1.96

…Pursuant to the issue of Board’s letter dated 17.8.98, an anomaly arose in as much as those

Sr.Clerks who were in receipt of special pay and promoted as Head Clerks prior to 01.01.1996 were fixed at a lower stage as on 1.1.96 vis-à-vis those Sr. Clerks in receipt of special pay but promoted as Head Clerk after 1.1.1996.

2. In view of the above, the matter has been examined in Board’s office and it has been decided that in accordance with Note 1 below Rule 8 of RSRP Rules,1997, the pay of Head Clerks ( grade Rs.1400-2300) may be stepped up at par with Senior Clerks ( grade Rs.1200-2040) in receipt of Spl. Pay of Rs.70/- who, on the recommendation of Fifth CPC were upgraded as Head Clerks and placed in the same scale of Rs.5000-8000 w.e.f. 1.1.1996. The benefit of stepping up of pay, wherever

54

admissible, will be allowed only in cases where the promotion was on a regular basis and from the date the junior employee started drawing more pay than his senior.

3. The stepping up of pay in these cases will be subject to the fulfillment of the conditions of natural principles viz. (i) both senior and junior employees belonged to the same cadres in the lower and higher posts and their scales of pay in the two posts were also identical; (ii) the senior employee was drawing equal or more pay than junior in the lower post; (iii) the senior employee was promoted earlier than his junior; and (iv) the next increment of such a senior will be drawn on completion of the required qualifying service from the date of re-fixation of pay.

4. Further, the stepping up of pay will not be allowed in the following cases:-

a) where an employee, even though senior was not found suitable for appointment to the identified posts of Senior Clerks carrying special pay;b) where the Sr. employee declined to accept deployment/appointment or was appointed at a later date than the junior to the identified posts for whatsoever reasons whereby he draws less pay than the junior, in such cases senior cannot claim stepping up of pay at par with junior;c) where an employee was away outside the cadre at the time when his junior was appointed to the identified post;d) where a senior proceeds on extra ordinary leave which results in postponement of date of next increment in the lower post, consequently he starts drawing less pay than his junior in the lower grade itself. He, therefore, cannot claim pay parity on promotion;e) where the employee has been promoted to the post of Head Clerk against quota reserved for SC/ST/OBC/Sports etc. even before becoming eligible for the identified post carrying special pay;f) where junior gets more pay due to additional increments earned on acquiring higher qualifications or on sports account; andg) where a senior was appointed later than the junior in the lower post itself whereby he is in receipt of lesser pay than the junior, in such cases also senior cannot claim parity in the higher post though he may have been promoted earlier to the higher post.

Copy of Board’s letter No.PC-VI/2008/I/RSRP/1/Pt.3 dated 9.4.2009 [RBE No.64 /09] PC-VI/97

Sub: Date of next increment in cases where Railway Servants are not able to join posts in a particular grade pay on promotion /appointment on 1st

of January of a year due to Sunday or Gazetted Holiday – Clarification regarding.

***As per the provisions of Rule 10 of RS[RP] Rules, 2008, w.e.f. 01.01.2006 in the case of all

Railway employees there is a uniform date of increment, i.e.1st of July of every year. Railway servants completing six months and above in the revised pay structure as on 1st of July are eligible to be granted the increment. From the above provision of RS[RP] Rules it flows that Railway servants who have rendered less than 6 months of service as on 1st of July of a year will not be eligible to draw increment on that day and their date of increment will fall 12 months later on next 1 st of July. Accordingly, all the Railway servants who join posts in a particular grade on account of promotion / appointment etc. on 1st January of a year will be eligible to draw their annual increment on the 1st of July of that year. However, those who join the posts between 2nd January and 30th June will not be eligible for the same.

2. In the light of the above position, clarification has been sought regarding the date of next increment in cases where Railway servants are not able to join posts in a particular grade pay on promotion /appointment on first of January of a year due to 1 st of January falling on a Sunday or

55

Gazetted holiday. It has been clarified by the Ministry of Finance, Department of Expenditure that in the normal course, if a Railway servant was to join post in a grade pay on appointment /promotion on 1st of January of a year, but he could not join the post only because 1st of January of the year happened to be a Sunday or Gazetted holiday the Railway servants who join the posts on the 1 st

working day of the year will be treated to have completed 6 months of service on 1 st of July of that year for the purpose of granting them annual increment on that day.

Sub: Applicability of RS[RP] Rules, 2008 to persons re-employed in Railway Service after retirement and whose pay is debitable to Railway Estimates.

***Persons re-employed in Railway service after retirement have been excluded from the purview

of the Railway Services [Revised Pay] Rules, 2008 vide Rule 2[2] [vii] thereof. The question of extension of the benefit of the revised pay rules to these persons and the procedure to be followed for fixing their pay in the revised scales has been considered by the Government. The President is pleased to decide that, in partial modification of the Rule 2 [2] [vii] of the Railway Services [Revised Pay] Rules, 2008, the provisions of these rules shall apply to such persons also who were in re-employment on 1st January, 2006, subject to the orders hereinafter contained. This decision will cover all Railway servants re-employed on Railways other than those employed on contract whether they have retired with or without a pension and / or gratuity or any other retirement benefits, e.g. contributory fund etc. from a civil post or from the Armed Forces.

2[I] The initial pay of a re-employed Railway servant who elects or is deemed to have elected to be governed by the revised pay scale from the 1st day of January 2006 shall be fixed in the following manner namely:-

According to the provisions of Rule 7 of the RS[RP] Rules, 2008, if he is –

[i] a Railway servant who retired without receiving a pension, gratuity or any other retirement benefit and

[ii] a retired Railway servant who received pension or any other retirement benefits but which were ignored while fixing pay on re-employment.

2[II] The initial pay of a re-employed Railway servant who retired with a pension or any other retirement benefit and whose pay on re-employment was fixed with reference to these benefits or ignoring a part thereof, and who elects or is deemed to have elected to be governed by the revised scales from the 1st day of January, 2006 shall be fixed in accordance with the provisions contained in Rule 7 of the Railway Services [Revised Pay] Rules, 2008. In addition to the pay so fixed, the re-employed Railway servant would continue to draw the retirement benefits he was permitted to draw in the pre-revised scales, as modified based on the recommendations of the Sixth Central Pay Commission, orders in respect of which have been issued separately by the Department of Pension & Pensioners Welfare. However, an amount equivalent to the revised pension [excluding ignorable portion of pension, wherever permissible], effective from 1.1.2006 or after, shall be deducted from his pay in accordance with the general policy of the Government on fixation of pay of re-employed pensioners. Annual increments will be allowed in the manner laid down in Rule 10 of Railway Services [Revised Pay] Rules, 2008, on the entire amount of pay as if pension had not be deducted.

3. Re-employed persons who become eligible to elect revised scale in accordance with these orders should exercise their option in the manner laid down in Rule 6 of the Railway Services [Revised Pay] Rules, 2008 within three months of the date of issue of these orders or in cases where the

56

existing scale of pay of the posts held by them are revised subsequent to the issue of these orders, within three months of the date of orders / notification revising the scales.

4. Where a re-employed Railway servant elects to draw his pay in the existing scale and is brought over to revised scale from a date later than the 1st day of January, 2006, his pay from the later date in the revised scale shall be fixed in accordance with the provisions of Rule 11 of the Railway Services [Revised Pay] Rules, 2008.

5. Further, the existing ceiling of Rs.26000/- for drawal of pay plus gross pension on re-employment is enhanced to Rs.80000/-, the maximum salary payable to the ex-officio Secretary to the Government of India under Railway Services [Revised Pay] Rules, 2008.

6. The President is also pleased to enhance the ignorable part of pension from Rs.1500/- to Rs.4000/- [Rupees four thousand] in the case of Commissioned Service Officers and civil officers holding Group ‘A’ posts who retire before attaining the age of 55 years. The existing limits of civil and military pensions to be ignored in fixing the pay of re-employed pensioners will, therefore, cease to be applicable to cases of such pensioners as are re-employed on or after 1.1.2006. In the cases of persons who are already on re-employment, the pay may be fixed on the basis of these orders with effect from 1.1.2006, provided they opt to come under these orders. If they so opt, their terms would be determined afresh as if they have been re-employed for the first time from 1.1.2006. The option should be exercised in writing within three months from the date of issue of these orders. The option once exercised is final.

7. These orders shall take effect from 1.1.2006.

Sub: Anomaly in fixation of pay of Loco Supervisory staff appointed prior to 01.01.2006 with reference to their juniors appointed after 01.01.2006 and drawing more pay than the seniors.

*** It has come to the notice of the Board that staff appointed prior to 01.01.2006 as Loco

Running Supervisors in the pre-revised scales, whose pay has been fixed in the replacement pay structure for Loco Running Supervisors under the RS[RP] Rules, 2008, are drawing less pay than their juniors appointed as Loco Running Supervisor after 01.01.2006. The anomaly has arisen due to the fact that the benefit of element of Running allowance granted at the time of promotion of running staff to a stationary post has been granted to the junior in the revised pay structure, whereas, the same benefit granted to the senior is of lesser value as the same has been calculated on pre-revised pay scale.

2. It has been decided that the anomaly may be resolved by granting stepping up of pay in the pay band to the seniors at par with the juniors in terms of Note 10 below Rule 7 of RS[RP] Rules, 2008.

3. The benefit of stepping up of pay in the pay band will be subject to the following conditions:

[a] Both the junior and the senior Railway servants should belong to the same cadre and the posts in which they have been promoted should be identical in the same cadre and other conditions enumerated in Note 10 below Rule 7 of RS[RP] Rules, 2008 should also be fulfilled.

[b] The stepping up of pay will be allowed to running staff only appointed as Loco Supervisors in whose cases 30% of basic pay is taken as pay element in the running allowance. The stepping up of pay will not be admissible to the non-running staff of Mechanical Deptt. appointed as Loco Running Supervisors as in their cases the question of pay element in the running allowance does not arise;

[c] If even in the lower post, revised or pre-revised, the junior was drawing more pay than the senior by virtue of advance increments granted to him or otherwise, stepping up will not be permissible;

[d] Stepping up will be allowed only once, the pay so fixed after stepping up will remain unchanged;

[e] The next increment will be allowed on the following 1st July, if due, on completion of the requisite qualifying service with effect from the date of refixation of pay, as per the provisions of Rule 10 of RS[RP] Rules, 2008.

GSR 643(E) dated 04.09.2008 and Schedules circulated vide this Ministry’s letter No.PC-VI/2008/I/RSRP/1 dated 11.09.2008 (S.No.PC-VI/2).

2. Sixth Pay Commission recommended merger of the three pre-revised scales of Rs.5000-8000, RS.5500-9000 and Rs.6500-10500 and replaced them by the revised pay structure of grade pay of Rs.4200 in the pay band PB-2 vide Para 2.2.21(v) of its Report, the Commission recommended that on account of the merger of these 3 scales, some posts which constituted feeder and promotion grades would come to lie in an identical grade. The Commission gave specific recommendations in its Report granting higher grade pay of Rs.4600 to some categories of these posts. As regards the other posts, the Commission recommended that it should first be seen if the posts in these 3 scales can be merged without any functional disturbance and if possible, the same should be done. Further, the Commission recommended that in case it is not feasible to merge the posts in these pay scales on functional consideration, the posts in the scale Rs.5000-8000 and Rs.5500-9000 should be merged with the posts in the scale of Rs.6500-10500 being upgraded to the next higher grade in the pay band PB-2 with grade pay of Rs.4600 corresponding to the pre-revised scale of Rs.7400-11500. In case a post already exists in the scale of Rs.7450-11500, the post being upgraded from the scale of Rs.6500-10500 should be merged with the post in the scale of Rs.7450-11500.

3. The Ministry has received a large number of references from various Railways/Production Units and other Institutes/Departments proposing up-gradation of the posts which were in the pre-revised scale of Rs.6500-10500 as on 01.01.2006 by granting them grade pay of Rs.4600 in the pay band PB-2. Consequent upon decision taken by Ministry of Finance, it has now been decided that the posts which were in the pre-revised scale of Rs.6500-10500 as on 01.01.2006 and which were granted the normal replacement pay structure of grade pay of Rs.4200 in the pay band PB-2 will be granted grade pay of Rs.4600 in the pay band PB-2 corresponding to the pre-revised scale of Rs.7450-11500 w.e.f. 01.01.2006. Further, as already stipulated in note 2 under schedule circulated vide Annexure “B” of Board’s letter No.PC-VI/2008/I/RSRP/1 dt.11.09.2008 in case a post already existed in the pre-revised scale of Rs.7450-11500 the posts being upgraded from the scale of Rs.6500-10500 should be merged with the post in the scale of Rs.7450-11500.

4. Accordingly, in terms of Rule 6 of RS(RP) Rules, 2008, revised pay of Railway servants in the pre-revised scale of Rs.6500-10500 who were earlier granted grade pay of Rs.4200 and who have already exercised their option for drawal of pay in the revised pay structure in the format prescribed in the Second Schedule to the Rules, will be fixed again in accordance with illustration 4-A Annexed to RS(RP) Rules,2008.

5. In case of all such Railway servants in the pre-revised scale of Rs.6500-10500 who were earlier granted grade pay of Rs.4200 and who had opted to have their pay fixed under RS(RP) Rules,2008, action as prescribed in this Ministry’s letter No.PC-VI/2008/I/RSRP/1 dated 11.09.2008 will be taken. In case a Railway servant desires to revise his earlier option for coming over to the revised pay structure, he may be permitted to do so without making any reference to Board.

6. On account of pay fixation in the revised pay structure of grade pay of Rs.4600 in the pay band PB-2, arrears of pay will be recalculated and difference of arrears in respect of the entire amount will be paid immediately. The manner of drawal of arrears has already been indicated in this Ministry’s letter No.PC-VI/2008/I/RSRP/1 dated 11.09.2008.

7. This has the sanction of the President and issues with the concurrence of the Finance Directorate of the Ministry of Railways.

<<<>>>Consequent upon the Notification of CCS(RP) Rules,2008, Department of Expenditure

received a large number of references from administrative ministries/departments proposing upgradation of the posts which were in the pre-revised scale of Rs.6500-10500 as on 1.1.2006 by granting them grade pay of Rs.4600 in the pay band PB-2. After considering the matter, vide O.M. of even number dated 13th November,2009, the Government has approved grant of the pay structure of grade pay of Rs.4600 in the pay band PB-2 to posts that existed in the pre-revised scale of Rs.6500-10500 as on 1.1.2006 and which were granted the normal replacement pay structure of grade pay of Rs.4200 in the pay band PB-2. Separately, the Government also received reference from various sections regarding upgradation of the grade pay of Assistants in the Central Secretariat. After considering the matter, it has been decided to extend the pay structure of grade pay of Rs.4600 in the pay band PB-2 to Assistants belonging to Central Secretariat Service, Armed Forces Headquarter Service, Indian Foreign Service B and Railway Board Secretariat Service and Personal Assistants (PAs) in their counterpart Stenographer Services w.e.f. 1.1.2006.

Consequent upon the above upgradation, the pay of the above category of Government servants will be fixed again in accordance with illustration 4A annexed to CCS(RP) Rules,2008. As a result of refixation of pay, in case a Government servant desires to revise his earlier option for coming over to the revised pay structure, he may be permitted to do so without making any reference to this Department.

On account of pay fixation in the revised pay structure of grade pay of Rs.4600 in the pay band PB-2 arrears of pay will be recalculated and difference of arrears in respect of the entire amount

65

will be paid immediately. The manner of drawal of arrears has already been indicated in this Department’s O.M. of even number dated 30.08.2008.

While considering the case of granting upgraded grade pay of Rs.4600 to Assistants and PAs in the Central Secretariat, it is noted that Sixth Pay Commission had recommended parity in terms of hierarchical structure of Office Staff in Field and Secretariat offices upto the level of Assistants and this recommendation had been accepted by the Government. However, one of the reasons due to which Assistants of Central Secretariat are being granted grade pay of Rs.4600 is the fact that there is an element of direct recruitment to the post and that too, through an All India Competitive Examination. With the issue of this Department’s O.M. of even number dated 13 th November, 2009, the grade pay of Rs.4600 has already been introduced in the case of Office Staff in Field Offices. As far as Central Secretariat is concerned, in order to continue to maintain parity between Field and Secretariat offices, introduction of a level in the hierarchy of Central Secretariat having grade pay of Rs.4200 in the pay band PB-2 between the grades of Upper Division Clerks and Assistants is necessary.

The manner in which the new grade in the hierarchy of Central Secretariat should be introduced may be decided by DOPT in consultation with Department of Expenditure. Introduction of this new grade in the hierarchy will be applicable in the case of all the four Headquarter Services viz. Central Secretariat Service, Armed Forces Headquarter Service, Indian Foreign Service B and Railway Board Secretariat Service and their counterpart Stenographer Services. The decision to introduce the new grade in the hierarchy of Central Secretariat Service will be implemented from a prospective date.

Sub: Fixation of pay on deputation after the replacement of the pre-revised S-30 scale by the new HAG scale – clarifications regarding.

Attention is drawn towards this Department’s O.M. of even number dated 13 th

September,2008 on the subject ‘Clarifications on CCS (Revised Pay) Rules, 2008’. Vide the said O.M. clarifications were issued, Inter-alia, regarding fixation of pay of Government servants on deputation consequent upon the implementation of the revised pay structure recommended by the Sixth Central Pay Commission. The Government has since notified a new HAG scale (Rs.67000-79000) in replacement of the pre-revised S-30 scale of Rs.22400-24500. Consequently, the following

66

clarifications regarding fixation of pay on deputation on account of the replacement of the pre-revised S-30 scale by the new HAG scale are issued.

1. CASES WHERE GOVERNMENT SERVANTS WERE ON DEPUTATION AS ON 01-01- 2006.

(A) In case a Government servant was on deputation to post in PB-4 with grade pay of Rs,.10000 on 1-1-2006 and got promoted to the HAG scale in his cadre after 01.01.2006 while still on deputation and was also granted proforma promotion under the ‘Next Below Rule’, his pay will be fixed in the manner indicated below:-

As on 1.1.2006, the pay of the Government servant will be fixed with reference to the fitment table of the pre-revised scale of Rs.18400-22400. Subsequently, when he gets promoted to HAG scale in his cadre and is allowed proforma promotion under the ‘Next Below Rule’, his basic pay will be fixed with reference to the basic pay of the officer immediately below him in his parent cadre (who is working in the cadre), though he will continue to be in the pay band PB-4. From such basic pay, Rs.10,000 will be treated as grade pay and the rest as pay in the pay band. The Government servant will continue to earn his annual increments during the remaining period of deputation subject to a maximum pay in the pay band of Rs.67000 (the maximum of the pay band PB-4).

(B) In case a Government servant was on deputation to a post in PB-4 with grade pay of Rs.10000 on 1.1.2006, but had already been promoted to the HAG scale in his cadre prior to 1.1.2006, his pay will be fixed in the manner indicated below:-

(i) As on 1.1.2006, the pay of the Government servant will be fixed with reference to the fitment table of the pre-revised scale of Rs.18400-22400. Immediately thereafter (on the same day), his basic pay will be stepped up with reference to the revised basic pay of the officer immediately below him in his parent care (who is working in the cadre). From such stepped up basic pay, Rs.10,000 will be treated as grade pay and the rest as pay in the pay band PB-4. The government servant will continue to earn his annual increments during the remaining period of deputation subject to a maximum pay in the pay band of Rs.67000 (the maximum of the pay band PB-4)(ii) Subsequently, in case the Government servant got laterally appointed on deputation basis to a post in the HAG scale, his pay in the pay band and grade pay will be consolidated and will become his basic pay in the HAG scale, subject to a maximum of Rs.79000.

2. CASES WHERE GOVERNMENT SERVANTS PROCEED ON DEPUTATION AFTER 01-01-2006.

(A) In case a Government servant comes on deputation to a post in PB-4 with grade pay of Rs.10000 after 1.1.2006 and later gets promoted to the HAG scale in his cadre and is also granted proforma promotion under the ‘Next Below Rule’, his pay will be fixed in the manner indicated below:-

On his appointment on deputation basis, the pay of the government servant will be fixed as per the terms of deputation/extant rules. Subsequently, when he gets promoted to HAG scale in his cadre and is allowed proforma promotion under the ‘Next Below Rule’, his basic pay will be fixed with reference to the basic pay of the officer immediately below him in his parent cadre (who is working in the cadre) but will continue to be in PB-4. From such basic pay, Rs.10,000 will be treated as grade pay and the rest as pay in the pay band. The Government servant will continue to earn his annual increments during the period of deputation subject to a maximum pay in the pay band of Rs.67000 (the maximum of the pay band PB-4).

(B) Fixation of pay of Government servants who are in the grade pay of Rs.10000 in the pay band PB-4 in their parent cadre and who go on deputation, other than under the Central Staffing Scheme (i) directly to a post in HAG scale, and (ii) to a post in the same grade pay and thereafter get laterally appointed on deputation basis to a higher post in the HAG scale will be done in the manner indicated below:-

In such cases, as per extant instructions, on his appointment on deputation basis, the Government servant has the option to have his pay fixed either with reference to his pay in his parent cadre (in which case he will also be eligible for deputation (duty) allowance), or to opt for the pay of the post. If the Government servant opts to have his pay fixed in the pay of the post, his pay will be fixed

67

in the HAG scale by granting an increment to his basic pay @ 3% and adding Rs.2000 thereto, subject to a minimum of Rs.67000 and maximum of Rs.79000.

3. PAY FIXATION OF GOVERNMENT SERVANTS WHO PROCEED ON DEPUTATION UNDER THE CENTRAL STAFFING SCHEME AFTER 01.01.2006.

(A) In case a Government servant comes on deputation to a post in PB-4 with grade pay of Rs.10000 after 1.1.2006 and later gets promoted to the HAG scale in his cadre and is also granted proforma promotion under the ‘Next Below Rule’, his pay will be fixed in the manner indicated below:-

Under the extant rules, Government servants are not permitted to go on deputation to a lower level post. The same is, however, permitted under the Central Staffing Scheme. Accordingly, in case a Government Servant in HAG scale goes on a deputation (under the Central Staffing Scheme) to a lower post in PB-4 with grade pay of Rs.10000, his basic pay in the deputation post will be fixed at a stage equal to his basic pay his parent cadre. However, since the basic pay of Joint Secretaries/equivalent posts has two components, viz., grade pay (Rs.10000) and pay in the pay band, in such cases, the pay on deputation will be fixed by treating Rs.10000 from the basic pay as grade pay and the remaining amount as pay in the pay band. To illustrate, if a Government servant’s basic pay in the cadre in HAG grade was Rs.73220, on his appointment on deputation basis as a Joint Secretary under the Central Staffing Scheme, his basic pay will continue to be Rs.73220, of which Rs.10000 will be treated as grade pay and the remaining Rs.63220 as pay in the pay band. Thereafter, he will continue to earn his annual increments, subject to his pay in the pay band not exceeding Rs.67000.

(B) Fixation of pay of Government servants who are in the HAG scale in their parent care and go on deputation to a post in the grade pay of Rs.10000 in the pay band PB-4 under the Central Staffing Scheme and thereafter get appointed on deputation basis to posts in the HAG scale will be done in the manner indicated below:-

In such cases, on initial appointment to a post in the grade pay of Rs.10000 in PB-4, the pay of a Government servant will be fixed in the manner indicated in 3.(A) above. Subsequently, when the Government servant is appointed on deputation basis to a post in HAG scale under the Central Staffing Scheme, his pay in the pay band and grade pay will consolidated and will become his basic pay in the HAG scale subject to a maximum of Rs.79000.

2. The term ‘basic pay’ in the revised pay structure is defined under Rule 3(8) of CCS(RP) Rules, 2008.

3. The clarifications issued vide this Department’s OM of even number dated 13 th

September,2008 stand modified to the extent that they were applicable in the case of deputations relating to the revised pay structure of grade pay of Rs.12000 in the pay band PB-4 which has now been substituted by new HAG scale. In respect of all other grade pays/pay scales, the earlier clarifications continues to be valid.

****ANNEX-I

TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR GRANT OF HIGHER PAY SCALE ON NON-FUNCTIONAL BASIS TO OFFICERS OF ORGANISED GR.’A’ SERVICES.

1. The non functional up-gradation granted under these orders will be based on empanelment and posting of particular batch of IAS officer in the Centre. Such up-gradation would not be linked to the vacancies in the grade.

2 The up-gradation granted under these orders will be a purely non-functional up-gradation, personal to the officer and it would not bestow any right to the officer to claim promotion or deputation benefits based on non-functional up-gradation in such a manner.

3 All the prescribed eligibility criteria and promotional norms including ‘benchmark’ for up-gradation to a particular grade pay would have to be met at the time of screening for grant of higher pay scale under these orders.

4 A screening committee would be formed by the Ministry for implementation of these orders. There would be three members in committee so formed and they would at-least be one level above the grade for which upgradation is being considered. Secretary of the Ministry concerned would chair the committee.

5 All instructions concerning grant of non-functional upgradation presently applicable in the case of grant of NFSG to officers of Group A services would apply in the event of penalty, disciplinary proceedings, suspension etc.

6 Orders will be issued with the approval of the competent authority. Grant of higher pay scale on the non-functional basis would be from the date of posting of the first officer belonging to the particular batch of IAS officer at the centre. In case of any delay in the issue of orders, financial benefits under these orders will be given from the due date.

7. (i) Pay fixation on grant of non-functional up-gradation under these orders will be done as per the provisions of CCS(RP) Rules,2008 i.e. the officers will be granted one increment at the rate of 3% of basic pay and the difference of grade pay will be added to their basic pay.(ii) As far as similarly placed officers of organized Gr.A services, who are posted under the Central Staffing Scheme are concerned, they will be granted one additional increment on account of the non-functional up-gradation, but their grade pay will remain unchanged on the ground that they are

69

holding a particular post with a specific grade pay under the Central Staffing Scheme. In such cases the officers granted non-functional up-gradation may continue to draw CDTA if admissible.

8 As and when the normal vacancies in the grade arise, the officer will be considered for regular promotion as per the normal DPC guidelines, based on the provisions of the recruitment rules. UPSC will be consulted wherever the rules provide for the same. However at the time of promotion, the pay in the grade will not be fixed again for officers who have been granted upgradation under these orders.

9 Officers on deputation/study leave or any other duly sanctioned leave would also be considered and granted higher pay scale on non-functional basis according to the prescribed procedure.

10 Non-functional up-gradation to the next higher grade pay granted under the scheme is a fall back option only, to be applied in cases where officers of a particular Service have not been granted promotion to a particular grade in normal course according to the due procedure.

11 ILLUSTRATION: If officers of 1987 batch of IAS are empanelled as Joint Secretary in the grade pay of Rs.10,000/- in PB-4 and an officer of the batch gets posted in the Centre(under Central Staffing Scheme ) on 15th January 2008, all the officers of the 1985 batch of organized Gr.A Central Services who have not been promoted to the Joint Secretary or equivalent grade and who are eligible for the same on 1.1.2007 for the panel year 2007-08, would be appointed to the same grade on non-functional basis under these instructions w.e.f. 15.1.2008. Same would be the case in the event of posting of an officer of particular batch as Deputy Secretary/Director under Central Staffing scheme.

Sub: Non-functional upgradation for Officers of Organised Group ‘A’ services in PB-3 and PB-4- Clarifications

*****This Department vide OM dated 24.4.09 issued instructions regarding non-functional

upgradation for officers of Organised Group A services in PB-3 and PB-4. Subsequently vide OM dated 21.5.09, details regarding the batch of officers belonging to the IAS and who have been posted at the Centre in various grades of PB-3 and PB-4 w.e.f. 1.1.2006 as well as the date of posting of the first officer belonging to the batch were indicated. In this connection, clarifications have been sought from this Department by some Ministries/Departments and by individual representations. The same have been considered by this Department in consultation with Department of Expenditure and following clarifications are issued.

Point of doubt Clarification1 This office Memo refers to the term ‘Batch’. In Central

Civil Services and Indian Engineering Services, the definition of a batch is, the year in which the exam is conducted. In some other services, the recruitment is done through interview only. Where recruitment is done through interview only, the Batch is the year in which the Advertisement is issued by the UPSC or the year of interview for recruitment

Since different services have different criteria for defining ‘Batch’, the term ‘Batch’ in the OM refers to the year of joining the service.

2 In some services, there is induction of Group B officers into the Organised Group A service. Whether these officers will be eligible for the benefits under this OM. If so how the criteria of batch will be decided in their case.

Officers inducted into Group ‘A’ Organised service will also be eligible for the benefit of Non-functional upgradation. They shall be assigned the benefit of ‘Batch’ corresponding to the batch of the ‘direct recruit’ officers with whom their seniority is clubbed.

3 In the OM dated 21.5.09, all officers of Group A services belonging to 1984 and earlier batches are clubbed together for providing the non-functional upgradation to SAG w.e.f. 26.10.2006, the date on which the first officer of 1986 batch of IAS was appointed as JS at the Centre. The cut off date for granting non-functional upgradation to SAG to batches senior to the 1984 batch should have been 01.01.2006. Similarly in other grades.

The scheme for non-functional upgradation of officers of Organised Group A services in PB-3 and PB-4 is based on the recommendations of the 6th CPC. These recommendations have been implemented only from 1.1.2006. As such, any upgradation can be only with reference to the officers of IAS posted to the Centre after 1.1.06. Therefore, the request for granting non-functional upgradation w.e.f. 1.1.06 is not permissible.

Sub: Applicability of minimum pay/stepping up of pay – clarification reg.***

A number of references have been received in this office regarding applicability, for departmental promotees, of minimum entry pay prescribed for direct recruits ( appointed on or after 1.1.2006), in Section II of Part A of the First Schedule of RS(RP)Rules,2008. References have also been received regarding stepping up of pay of senior promotees with reference to such of their directly recruited juniors who are recruited on or after 1.1.2006 and whose basic pay is more than that of their seniors.

2. The matter has been examined in consultation with Ministry of Finance. In this connection it is clarified that the revised pay structure comprises grade pays and running pay bands and in the case of those Railway servants who were already in service before 1.1.2006, Sixth Pay Commission has not prescribed a minimum pay in the running pay band with reference to the minimum entry level pay prescribed for direct recruits appointed on or after 1.1.2006. Further, the Sixth CPC has not prescribed minimum pay in the pay band for the purpose of fixation of pay on promotion in the case of any grade and fixing of minimum pay in the pay band in the case of each grade pay for departmental promotees would defeat the very purpose of introduction of running pay bands.

3. As far as the matter relating to bringing the pay of existing Railway servants as on 1.1.2006 at par with the pay of direct recruits recruited on or after 1.1.2006 is concerned, it is clarified that the pay of those Railway servants who joined the Railway as direct recruits on or after 1.1.2006 is to be fixed as per Section II, Part ‘A’ of the First Schedule to the RS(RP)Rules,2008 and the procedure of pay fixation is based on a specific recommendation of the Sixth Pay Commission, which has been accepted by the Government. As far as pay fixation in respect to those Railway servants who were already in service on 1.1.2006 is concerned, the same is to be done as per the provisions of Rule 7 of RS(RP)Rules,2008 and in accordance with the fitment tables annexed with this Ministry’s letter No. PC-VI/2008/I/RSRP/1 dated 11.9.2008.

4. In the light of the foregoing, it is clarified that in terms of RS(RP)Rules,2008:-

(a) no minimum pay in the pay band can be prescribed in the case of promotion of Railway servants from one grade to another ( except in the case of change in pay band); and

(b) pay of those Railway servants who were already in service on 1.1.2006 can not be fixed with reference to the minimum entry pay prescribed for those who joined the

74

Railways as direct recruits on or after 1.1.2006 as per Section II, Part ‘A’ of the First Schedule to the RS(RP)Rules,2008.

5. However, stepping up of pay of seniors can be permitted with reference to such of their directly recruited juniors borne on the same seniority list who are recruited on or after 1.1.2006 and whose basic pay is more than that of the seniors, subject to the following conditions:-

(a) Stepping up of the basic pay of seniors can be claimed only in the case of those cadres which have an element of direct recruitment and in cases where a directly recruited junior is actually drawing more basic pay than the seniors. In such cases, the basic pay of the seniors will be stepped up with reference to the basic pay of the juniors. Stepping up will be applicable from the date junior direct recruit is actually drawing higher basic pay than the senior.

(b) Further, Railway servants cannot claim stepping up of their revised basic pay with reference to entry pay in the revised pay structure for direct recruits appointed on or after 1.1.2006 as laid down in Section II of Part A of First Schedule to the RS(RP)Rules,2008, if their cadre does not have an element of direct recruitment, or in cases where no junior is drawing basic pay higher than them.

(c) Stepping up of pay of the seniors shall not be applicable in cases where pay of direct recruits has been fixed at a higher stage on account of grant of advance increments etc. at the time of recruitment.

Copy of Ministry of Finance Department of Expenditure’s Office Memorandum F.No.1/1/2008-IC dated 26.03.2009

Sub: Fixation of pay on deputation after implementation of CCS (Revised Pay) Rules – clarification reg.

Vide this Department’s OM of even number dated 13 th September,2008 clarifications to the CCS (RP) Rules,2008 were issued. Clarifications 4 and 5 of the said O.M. indicate the position regarding fixation of pay of Government servants (including officers of Group ‘A’ services) in cases where they were on

75

deputation and got promoted in the cadre subsequently while still on deputation and where Government servants go on deputation to a lower post, respectively.

2. Consequent upon the issue of the above Clarifications, individual representations and enquiries from some administrative ministries etc. have been received in this Department. While some clarifications were regarding applicability of Department of Personnel & Training (DoPT)O.M. number No.2/29/91-Estt.(Pay-II) dated 5.1.1994, others specifically related to pay fixation while on Central Deputation under the Central Staffing Scheme after the implementation of the revised pay structure as a result of Sixth CPC’s recommendations. In this connection, it is hereby clarified that DoPT’s consolidated instructions on the subject of transfer of Central Government employees on deputation/foreign service etc., issued vide their O.M. number No.2/29/91-Estt(Pay II) dated 05.01.1994 continue to be in vogue. In the light of the same, the following two set of clarifications are given. While clarifications under sub-heading (A) specifically relate to cases of deputation under the Central Staff Scheme alone, those under sub-heading (B) are applicable in all other cases of deputation:-

(A) CASES OF DEPUTATION UNDER THE CENTRAL STAFFING SCHEME.i) The extant Rules relating to Central Staffing Scheme permit officers holding posts in the higher pay

scales in their parent cadres to be eligible for deputations under the Central Staffing Scheme for posts in lower scales of pay. Since this dispensation under the Central Staffing Scheme will continue to apply, Clarification 5 has been issued to regulate such cases;

ii) In cases where pay has been regulated in terms of Clarification 4 of this Department’s OM of even number dated 13th September 2008, the pay of officers belonging to AIS/Group ‘A’ Services will be fixed on repatriation to their parent cadres from deputation under the Central Staffing Scheme by granting the grade pay of their substantive post in their cadre and fixing pay in the pay band with reference to the pay in the pay band of their next junior who has continued in the cadre giving notional benefit of increments as at present;

iii) In cases where officers of the AIS/Group ‘A’ services are on Deputation under the Central Staffing Scheme to a post with a lower grade pay than the grade pay attached to their substantive post in their parent cadre and where their pay has been regulated in terms of Clarification 5 of this Department’s OM of even number dated 13 th September, 2008; in such cases, on their subsequent appointment to a higher post while on deputation, the officers will be granted the grade pay of the higher post.

In the case of repatriation to their parent cadre, the Government servant will be granted the higher grade pay of their substantive post and their pay in the pay band will be fixed with reference to the pay in the pay band of their next junior who has continued in the cadre, giving notional benefit of increments as at present.

iv)As per DOPT O.M.No.31/5/2002-EO(MM.I) dated 28 th February 2002, if an officer (of All India/Group A Service) has got non-functional Selection Grade in his/her parent cadre then he/she is eligible to draw his/her grade pay from the date he/she has been granted the Non-functional Selection Grade by his/her parent cadre plus deputation allowance but the post of Deputy Secretary held by him/her can be redesignated as Director only when he/she has completed 14 years of service, as on 1st July of the year in which 14 years are completed. Following the implementation of the Sixth CPC’s recommendations, the conditions regarding appointment of Deputy Secretary under Central Staffing Scheme remain unaltered and, therefore, the provisions of the above clarification of EO(MM) Division still hold good.

B) ALL OTHER CASES OF DEPUTATION(i) In terms of para 3.5 of DoPT O.M. dated 05.01.1994, a person in a higher scale of pay shall not be

appointed on deputation to a post in a lower scale of pay. Accordingly, in the case of deputations other than under the Central Staffing Scheme, Government servants holding posts in a higher grade will continue to be ineligible for appointment on deputation to posts in the lower grades;

(ii) However, a Government servant already on deputation/foreign service as on 1.1.2006 would be entitled to exercise his option as prescribed in para 4 of DoPT O.M. dated 1.5.1994 for getting his pay fixed on deputation. This option will also be available for future deputations. Accordingly, in terms of sub para [c] of para 4.3 of DoPT O.M. dated 01.05.1994, which states that ‘when the scale of pay of the parent post on the basis of which his emoluments are regulated during deputation/foreign service or of the ex-cadre post held by the Government servant on deputation/foreign service is revised either prospectively or from a retrospective date’, Government servants on deputation can revise their option if the scale of pay of their parent post or the post held by them on deputation has been revised as a result of implementation of Sixth CPC’s

76

recommendations. This will ensure that those Government servants whose parent post or the post held by them on deputation has been upgraded as a result of Sixth Central Pay Commission’s recommendations will not suffer a monetary loss on this account, and

(iii) In cases where pay has been regulated in terms of Clarification 4 of this Department’s OM of even number dated 13th September,2008, the pay of Government servants will be fixed on repatriation to their parent cadres by granting them the grade pay of their substantive post in their cadre and their pay in the pay band will be fixed with reference to the pay in the pay band of their next junior who has continued in the cadre, giving notional benefit of increments as at present.

Whether the benefit of one additional increment under the proviso to Rule 10 of RS [RP] Rules, 2008 would be available even to those who had reached the maximum of the scale on 1.1.2005, i.e. drawing maximum of pay exactly for one year as on 1.1.2006?

As already clarified vide Clarification No. 5 issued vide Railway Board’s letter No. PC-VI/2008/I/RSRP/1 dated 11.2.2009 [S.No. PC-VI/76, RBE No.28/2009] in all cases, where a Railway Servant has been granted an increment [whether normal annual increment or stagnation increment] after January 1, 2005, no increment will be allowed on 1.1.2006 at the time of fixation of pay in the revised pay structure.

From the foregoing, it is evident that in cases where Railway Servants have been granted an increment [whether normal annual increment or stagnation increment] after January 1, 2005, no increment will be allowed on 1.1.2006 at the time of fixation of pay in the revised pay structure. In other words, those who were granted their last increment [whether normal annual increment or stagnation increment] on or before 1.1.2005, will be allowed an increment on 1.1.2006 at the time of fixation of their pay in the revised pay structure.

2 Whether even those employees who had already been granted one, two or three stagnation increments after reaching the maximum of the scale and thereafter drawing such pay for exactly one year [having drawn last stagnation increment on 1.1.2005] or more than one year as on 1.1.2006 are also to be granted benefit of one additional increment as per proviso to of Rule 10 of RS [RP] Rules, 2008?

3 In accordance with Note 7 below Rule 7 of the Railway Services [Revised Pay] Rules, 2008, in cases where the revised pay of a Railway Servant who was, immediately before 1.1.2006, drawing more pay than another Railway Servant junior to him in the same cadre, gets fixed in the revised pay band at a stage lower than that of such junior, his pay shall be stepped up to the same stage in the revised pay band as that of the junior. Whether the provisions of this note will be applicable in the situation where such a senior Railway Servant who was immediately before 1.1.2006 drawing more pay than another Railway Servant junior to him in the same cadre gets fixed at a stage lower than that of such junior due to grant of additional increment as per 1st proviso to Rule 10 of RS [RP] Rules, 2008?

Even though Note 7 below Rule 7of RS [RP] Rules, 2008, specifically states that the provisions contained therein shall be applicable in cases where pay fixation is done under Sub Rule [1] of Rule 7, it is clarified that the provisions of this Note shall also be applicable in the situations arising due to pay fixation of the junior employee under proviso to Rule 10 of RS [RP] Rules, 2008 .

The issue of cadre restructuring of the cadre of Assistant Loco Pilots has been under consideration of the Ministry of Railways in consultation with the Staff Side [AIRF & NFIR].

While implementing these orders the following detailed instructions should be strictly and carefully adhered to:

Date of effect 1. The restructuring of the cadre will be with reference to the sanctioned cadre strength as on 1st May, 2010. The staff who will be placed in higher grade pay as a result of implementation of these orders will draw pay in higher grade pay from the date of effect.

Applicability 2. These orders will be applicable on the regular cadres [excluding surplus & supernumerary posts] of the Open Line establishments.

2.1 These orders will not be applicable to ex-cadre & work-charged posts which will continue to be based on worth of charge.

Pay Fixation 3. On placement in Pay Band-1, Grade Pay 2400, the pay will be fixed as per Rule 13 of RS[RP] Rules, 2008 with the benefit of one increment @ 3% of basic pay.

Existing classification and filling up of the vacancies

4. The existing classification of posts remains unchanged. Vacancies in the higher grade of ALP [Grade Pay .2400] arising out of this restructuring will be filled up on the basis of scrutiny of service records and confidential reports.

4.1 Normal vacancies in the higher grade [Grade Pay 2400] existing on the date of effect and those arising on that date from this cadre restructuring should be filled in the following sequence:[i] from panels approved on or before date of effect and current on that date;[ii] and the balance in the manner indicated in para 4 above.

4.2 Such panels of higher grade of ALPs [Grade Pay 2400] which have not been finalized by date of effect as specified in these orders should be cancelled/abandoned.

4.3 All vacancies arising from the next day following the date of effect as specified in these orders will be filled by normal procedure.

4.4 All vacancies in higher grade of ALPs [Grade Pay .2400] arising out of the restructuring should be filled up by senior employees who should be given benefit of the promotion w.e.f. the date of effect whereas for normal vacancies existing on the date of effect of these orders, junior employees should be posted and will get promotion and higher pay from the date of taking over the charge of the posts as per normal rules.

79

of effect of these orders, if they are otherwise entitled to the said benefit. Minimum years of service in each grade

5. While implementing the restructuring orders, instructions regarding minimum period of service for promotion issued from time to time should be followed.

Provision of reservation

6. The existing instructions with regard to reservation of SC/ST wherever applicable will continue to apply.

D&A/Vigilance Clearance

Refusal of promotion

8. Such of the Staff as had refused promotion before issue of these orders and stand debarred for promotion may be considered for promotion, in relaxation of the extant Provisions as a one time exception, if they indicate in writing that they are willing to be considered for such promotion against the vacancies existing on date of effect of these orders and arising due to restructuring on the date of effect of these orders. This relaxation will not be applicable to vacancies arising after the date of effect of these orders.

Matching Savings

9. Entire scheme of restructuring is to be a self-financing and expenditure neutral proposition. For calculation of the financial implications, the revised basic pay [including the Grade Pay] corresponding to the midpoint of the pre-revised pay scales in respect of each post as listed in the fitment table circulated vide Railway Board’s letter No. PC-VI/2008/I/RSRP/1 dated 12.9.2008, should be taken, along with the Dearness Allowance as applicable on date of effect of these orders.

9.1 Before restructuring the cadre of Assistant Loco Pilot as per the revised

percentage distribution of posts, matching savings will have to be ensured by the Railway. Board desire that the General Managers should ensure that the restructuring is implemented expeditiously with matching saving without any exception and difficulty. There would be no restructuring without matching savings by surrender of posts by the concerned Railway.

This issues with the concurrence of Finance Directorate of this Ministry.

Sub: Regulation of the Date of Next Increment in case of Extra-Ordinary leave (without medical certificate) after implementation of the Railway Services [Revised Pay] Rules, 2008 – clarification regarding.

*** Consequent upon the implementation of Railway Services [Revised Pay] Rules 2008, the

increments in the revised pay structure are to be regulated in terms of Rule 10 of the Railway Services [Revised Pay] Rules 2008.This rule states that “there will be a uniform date of annual increment viz. 1 st

of July every year. Employees completing 6 months and above in the revised pay structure as on 1st

July will be eligible to be granted the increment.”

2. The issue of regulation of date of next increment in case of EOL (without medical certificate) after implementation of Railway Services [Revised Pay] Rules 2008, has been examined and it is clarified that except as provided under the conditions laid down in Railway Board’s letter No. F[E]III/86/PN1/21 dated 09.01.87, qualifying service of less than six months on account of EOL (without medical certificate) between 1st July of the previous year till 30th June of the year under consideration shall have the effect of postponing the increment to 1st July of the next year. The same stipulation will also be applicable to those cases where the increment became due on 1.7.2006. In terms of Board’s letter No. F[E]III/86/PN1/21 dated 09.01.87, EOL granted for the following purposes automatically counts as qualifying service for pension and for increments without any further sanctions:-

(i) EOL granted due to inability of a Railway servant to join or rejoin duty on account of civil commotion or natural calamity provided that the employee has no other type of leave to his credit.

(ii) EOL granted to a Railway servant for prosecuting higher technical and scientific studies.

2.2 However, the following cases shall not be covered under these orders for whom separate orders exist:(a) Members of the All India Services and those deputed to posts, whose terms are regulated under specific statutory rules or orders;

(b) Officers appointed on deputation to posts under the Central Staffing Scheme (CSS) for whom separate orders as issued from time to time will continue to apply;

(c) Deputation to posts operated outside India;

(d) Appointments of a specific category of employees to a specified class of posts, such as appointments made in the Personal Staff of Ministers etc., in respect of which special orders are already in existence. However, the terms and conditions set out in this O.M. will apply to those cases to the extent these are not specifically covered under such special orders.

(e) Appointments of the nature of deemed deputation or transfers to ex-cadre posts made in exigencies of service with the specific condition that no deputation (duty) allowance will be admissible – e.g. (i) interim arrangements in the event of conversion of a Government office/organisation or a portion thereof into a PSU/ autonomous body or vice-versa; and (ii) appointments to the same post in another cadre.

3. Scope of Term ‘deputation/ foreign service’ – Restrictions on treating an appointment as on deputation/ foreign service.

3.1 The terms deputation/foreign service will cover only those appointments that are made by transfer on a temporary basis provided the transfer is outside the normal field of deployment and is in public interest. The question whether the transfer is outside the normal field of deployment or not will be decided by the authority which controls the service or post from which the employee is transferred.

3.2 The following types of appointments will not be treated as deputation/foreign service for the purposes of these orders:(a) appointment of serving employees made either by promotion or by direct recruitment from amongst open market candidates whether on permanent or temporary basis.

(b) permanent appointment made by transfer.

(c)Temporary appointment made on the basis of personal requests of employees.

(d) Arrangements necessitated by staff imbalances arising on re-organisation of offices on the same or different stations, subject to the specific condition that no deputation (duty) allowance will be admissible in such cases.

3.3 A person in a higher Grade Pay/scale of pay shall not be appointed on deputation to a post in lower Grade Pay/scale of pay if the deputation is from Central Government to Central Government and also in cases where the scale of pay and dearness allowance in the parent cadre post and ex-cadre post are similar.

102

3.4 However, no appointment on deputation/foreign service shall be made from/to Central Government/ an organisation where the pay scale and DA in the parent cadre post and ex-cadre post are dissimilar, if the basic pay in the parent cadre increased by one increment plus dearness allowance(s) including interim relief if any, admissible to a person in the parent cadre post exceeds the basic pay plus dearness allowance (s) including interim relief, if any, at the maximum of the pay scale of the ex-cadre post. In the revised pay structure, the maximum of the scale would mean the sum of the Grade Pay of the ex-cadre post and maximum of the Pay Band PB 4 i.e. 67000. For example, if the ex-cadre post is in the Grade Pay of 4200, then the maximum would be 71200 i.e. 4200 plus 67000 (maximum of PB 4).

4. Exercise of option

4.1 An employee appointed on deputation/foreign service, may elect to draw either the pay in the scale of pay of deputation/foreign service post or his/her basic pay in the parent cadre plus deputation (duty) allowance thereon plus personal pay, if any. However, in case of Government employees on deputation/ foreign service to CPSEs, this option will not be allowed and their pay will be governed in terms of the orders issued by Department of Public Enterprises vide OM dated 26.11.2008 and clarifications issued thereafter.

4.2 The borrowing authority shall obtain the option of the employee within one month from the date of joining the ex-cadre post unless the employee has himself furnished the option.

4.3 The option once exercised shall be final.

4.4 However, the employee may revise the option under the following circumstances which will be effective from the date of occurrence of the same:

(a) When he/she receives proforma promotion or is appointed to non-functional selection grade or up-gradation of scale in the parent cadre;

(b) When he/she is reverted to a lower grade in the parent cadre;

(c) When the scale of pay of the parent post on the basis of which his emoluments are regulated during deputation/foreign service or of the ex-cadre post held by the employee on deputation/foreign service is revised either prospectively or from a retrospective date.

(d) Based on the revised/same option of the employee, in the event of proforma promotion/appointment to non-functional Selection Grade/revision/upgradation of scales of pay in the parent cadre, his/her pay will be re-fixed with reference to the revised entitlement of pay in the parent cadre. However, if the initial option was for the pay scale of the deputation post and no change in option already exercised is envisaged, the pay already drawn in deputation post will be protected if the pay re-fixed is less.

Note: Revision in the rates of DA, HRA or any other allowance either in the parent or borrowing organisation shall not be an occasion for revision of the earlier option.

4.5. If the pay of an employee in his cadre post undergoes downward revision, the pay in the ex-cadre post is also liable to be re-fixed on the basis of revised pay and in accordance with the revised option or existing option if the employee does not revise his option.

5. Pay fixation

5.1 When an employee on deputation/Foreign Service elects to draw pay in the scale of pay attached to the ex-cadre post, his/ her pay may be fixed as under:

(i) Deputation from Central Government to Central Government

If the scale of pay/Grade Pay of the ex-cadre post is higher, the pay may be fixed after adding one increment to the existing pay in the Pay Band of the parent cadre post. The grade pay corresponding

103

to the ex-cadre post would thereafter be granted in addition to this pay in the pay band. However, in cases where the fixation of pay in the ex-cadre post involves change of Pay Band also, if the pay in the pay band after adding the increment is less than the minimum of the pay band corresponding to the grade pay of the ex-cadre post, the pay in the pay band will be fixed at the minimum of the Pay Band.

In case the Grade Pay/scale of employee’s cadre post and the ex-cadre post are identical, the employee would continue to draw his/her existing basic pay.

In case the Grade pay of the ex-cadre post is upto 10000, the Basic Pay, from time to time after pay fixation should not exceed the maximum of the pay band PB-4( .67000) plus the grade pay of the post held on deputation. In case the ex-cadre post is in the HAG or HAG+ pay scale, the Basic Pay, from time to time after pay fixation should not exceed 79000 or 80000 respectively.

(ii) In foreign service/ Reverse Foreign Service(a) when the pay scale of the post in the parent cadre and that attached to ex-cadre post are based on the same index level and the DA pattern is also same, the pay may be fixed as under (i) above.(b) If the appointment is made to a post whose pay structure and/ or DA pattern is dissimilar to that in the parent organisation, pay may be fixed by adding one increment to the pay in the parent cadre post in the scale of his regular parent post ( and if he/she was drawing pay at the maximum of the scale, by the increment last drawn) and equating the pay so raised plus dearness allowance (and additional or ad-hoc dearness allowance, Interim relief etc., if any) with emoluments comprising of pay plus DA, ADA, Interim relief etc., if any, admissible, in the borrowing organisation and the pay may be fixed at the stage in the pay scale of the ex-cadre post at which total emoluments admissible in the ex-cadre post as above equal the emoluments drawn in the cadre.

5.2 In cases of appointment from one ex-cadre post to another ex-cadre post where the employee opts to draw pay in the scale of the ex-cadre post, the pay in the second or subsequent ex-cadre post should be fixed under the normal rules with reference to the pay in the cadre post only. However, in respect of appointments to ex-cadre posts carrying Grade Pay identical to that of the ex-cadre post(s) held on an earlier occasion(s), it may be ensured that the pay drawn in subsequent appointment should not be less than the pay drawn earlier.

5.3 In cases of appointments to a second or subsequent ex-cadre post(s) in a higher pay scale/grade pay than that of the previous ex cadre post, the pay may be fixed with reference to the pay drawn in the cadre post and if the pay so fixed happens to be less than the pay drawn in the previous ex-cadre post, the difference may be allowed as personal pay to be absorbed in future increases in pay. This is subject to the condition that on both the occasions, the employee should have opted to draw pay in the scales of pay/Grade Pay attached to the ex-cadre posts.

Note-1: The term parent post and basic pay means the post held on regular basis in the parent organisation and pay drawn/ admissible in such a post respectively.

Note-2: An officer who may be holding a higher post on adhoc basis in the cadre at the time of proceeding on deputation/ foreign service would be considered to have vacated the post held on adhoc basis and proceeded on deputation/ foreign service from his/her regular post. During the period of deputation/ foreign service, he/she shall earn notional increments in the parent cadre post. On reversion, if he/she is re-appointed to the higher post on regular or adhoc basis his pay will get fixed with reference to the pay admissible in the lower post on the date of such re-appointment. In such cases, if his pay gets fixed at a stage lower than that of his junior(s) who continued to serve in the cadre, no stepping up will be admissible as per extant rules in so far as Central Government employees are concerned. However, if the pay so fixed is less than the pay drawn earlier while holding the post on ad-hoc basis the pay earlier drawn will be protected. Therefore, those Central Government employees who are already holding a higher post on ad-hoc basis or expecting it shortly in the parent cadre may weigh all relevant considerations before opting for deputation/foreign service. This note of caution will be applicable to employees of other organisations wishing to apply for posts on deputation in Central Government, if governed by similar rules in parent organisation.

104

Note-3: Pay of an officer appointed on deputation/foreign service on adhoc basis pending selection of a regular incumbent may also be regulated in accordance with provisions of Para 5.1 & 6.1 of this O.M.

Note-4: The provisions of this Para as well as Para 6 will not apply to appointments on Personal Staff of Ministers. Such appointments will be regulated by separate specific orders issued by the Government in that behalf.

6. Deputation (duty) Allowance

6.1 The deputation (duty) allowance admissible shall be at the following rates:

(a) In case of deputation within the same station, the allowance will be paid at the rate of 5% of basic pay subject to a maximum of 2000 p.m.; and

(b) In other cases, Deputation (Duty) Allowance will be payable at the rate of 10% of the employee’s basic pay subject to a maximum of 4000/- p.m.

(c) The deputation (duty) allowance as above shall further be restricted as under:

Basic Pay, from time to time, plus Deputation (Duty) Allowance shall not exceed the maximum of the pay band PB-4 ( 67000) plus the grade pay of the post held on deputation in case the Grade Pay of the post held on deputation is upto 10000. In case the post held on deputation is in the HAG or HAG+ pay scales, the Basic Pay, from time to time, plus Deputation (Duty) Allowance should not exceed 79000 and 80000 respectively.

Note: Basic Pay in the revised pay structure means the pay drawn in the prescribed pay band plus the applicable grade pay but does not include any other type of pay like special pay/allowance etc.

The rates of deputation (duty) allowance as above shall take effect from 1.9.2008.

Note: 1 The term ‘same station’ for the purpose will be determined with reference to the station where the person was on duty before proceeding on deputation.

Note: 2 Where there is no change in the headquarters with reference to the last post held, the transfer should be treated as within the same station and when there is change in headquarters it would be treated as not in the same station. So far as places falling within the same urban agglomeration of the old headquarters are concerned, they would be treated as transfer within the same station.

6.2 Special rates of deputation (duty) allowance may be admissible under separate orders in any particular area on account of the condition of living there being particularly arduous or unattractive. Where special rate is more favourable than that given in Para 6.1 above, employees deputed to the area will be given the benefit of the special rate.

6.3.1 If an employee with the permission of the competent authority, proceeds on deputation/foreign service from one ex-cadre post to another ex-cadre post in the same or another organisation without reverting to his parent cadre, and if the second ex-cadre post is at the same station as the first one, the rate of deputation (duty) allowance would remain unchanged.

6.3.2 In cases where a person on deputation/foreign service is transferred by the borrowing authority from one station to another without any change in the post held by him, the rate of deputation (duty) allowance will be refixed as per 6.1 (b).

7. Admissibility of pay, allowances & benefits while on deputation/foreign service

7.1 Any project allowance admissible in a project area in the borrowing organisation may be drawn in addition to deputation (duty) allowance.

105

7.2 Any special allowance granted to an employee in the parent Department under FR 9(25) or a corresponding. rule of parent organisation should not be allowed in addition to deputation (duty) allowance. However, the borrowing department may allow in addition to deputation (duty) allowance, under special circumstances, any special allowance attached to the post held by the employee in his/her parent Department, by suitably restricting the deputation (duty) allowance. This will require the specific and prior approval of Department of Personnel & Training.7.3 In case special allowance is attached to the scale of pay of the ex-cadre post and the employee has opted to draw pay in that scale, then, in addition to the pay in that scale, he will also be entitled to draw such special allowance. However, such special allowance will not be admissible if he has opted to draw pay in the parent cadre scale/grade pay plus deputation (duty) allowance.

7.4 Personal pay, if any, drawn by an employee in his parent department will continue to be admissible on deputation/foreign service if he/she opts to draw pay in the parent cadre scale/grade pay plus deputation (duty) allowance. No deputation (duty) allowance on this personal pay will however, be admissible.

7.5 Increments – The employee will draw increment in the parent cadre grade or in the scale of pay /grade pay attached to the deputation post as the case may be, depending on whether he has opted for the parent cadre pay plus deputation (duty) allowance or the pay scale /grade pay of the deputation post. If he has opted for pay scale/grade pay of the deputation post, notional increments shall also continue to accrue to him in the post held on regular basis in the parent cadre/ organisation for the purpose of regulation of pay on repatriation to the parent post at the end of the tenure.

7.6 Admissibility of allowances and benefits while on deputation/ foreign service.

(a) Such allowances as are not admissible to regular employees of corresponding status in the borrowing organisation shall not be admissible to the officer on deputation/foreign service, even if they were admissible in the parent organisation.

(b) Following allowances will be regulated with mutual consent of the lending and borrowing organisation:

(i) Dearness Allowance – The employee shall be entitled to dearness allowance at the rates prevailing in the borrowing organisation or in the lending organisation depending on whether he has opted to draw pay in the pay scale/grade pay of the ex-cadre post or the parent grade plus deputation (duty) allowance.

(ii) Medical Facilities – This will be regulated in accordance with the rules of the borrowing organisation.

(iii) Leave – An officer on deputation/foreign service shall be regulated by the Leave Rules of the parent organisation. If however an employee proceeds from vacation department to non-vacation department, or vice-versa, he shall be governed by Leave Rules of the borrowing organisation. At the time of reversion from the deputation post to the parent cadre, the borrowing organisation may allow him/her leave not exceeding two months. The employee should apply for further leave to his Cadre Controlling Authority.

7.7 Leave salary/Pension/NPS Contribution.(i) As at present, allocation of leave salary and pension contribution between different Ministries/Departments of Central Government and between Central and State Government has been dispensed with. In such cases of deputation from Central Government to State Government and vice-

106

versa, liability for bearing leave salary vests with the Department from which the officer proceeds on leave or which sanctioned leave and no contributions are payable to the lending organisation. Liability for pension/ employee’s contribution to CPF will be borne by the parent department, to which the officer permanently belongs at the time of retirement and no proportionate contribution will be recovered.

(ii) in case of deputation of Central Government employees on foreign service terms to Central Public Sector Undertakings/ State Public Sector Undertakings and Autonomous Bodies! etc., leave salary contribution (except for the period of leave availed of on foreign service) and pension contribution/CPF (Employer’s share) contribution are required to be paid either by the employee himself or by the borrowing organisation to the Central Government.

(iii) In cases of reverse deputation from Central Public Sector Undertakings! State Public Sector Undertakings/ Autonomous Bodies/local bodies to Central Government, the question regarding leave salary and pension contribution will be decided by mutual consent.

107

parent cadre vis-a-vis that of the ex-cadre post, the official shall complete his/her normal /extended tenure of deputation already sanctioned with the approval of the competent authority. The pay shall be regulated as under:

(a) If the Grade pay of the officer in the parent cadre becomes higher than that of the deputation post after getting proforma promotion, he may be allowed the pay in the pay band + Grade Pay of the post to which he is promoted till the time he completes the normal/extended period of deputation (if he gets proforma promotion in the extended period) already sanctioned, if he so opts. No extension in the period of deputation shall be allowed to him after completing the sanctioned period of deputation.

(b) If he draws the pay in the pay band + Grade pay attached to the deputation post, on reversion to his parent cadre, his pay may be fixed by allowing him notional increments in his regular post in the parent department + the Grade pay attached to it.

Letter No.P(R)605/XI Dt. 7-1-2008

Sub: Refusal of promotion in non-selection posts – Reserving a vacancy for the employee.

…In terms of Para 224 of IREM Vol.I,1989 Edition, the employee refusing promotion expressly

or otherwise( i.e., he does not give in writing his refusal but also does not join the post for which he has been kept on select list) should be debarred for future promotion for one year but not be transferred away from that station for one year if unavoidable domestic reasons exists. He should again be debarred for promotion for one year in case he refuses promotion again after the first year of debarment or refusal of promotion for second time, the Administration can however, transfer him to outstation in the same grade and the employee has again to appear for a suitability test when his turn for promotion comes.

He will rank junior to all promoted during the period he was allowed to refuse promotion irrespective of his relative seniority. He will not however, lose seniority to another employee promoted to the same category during the one year period of penalty as a result of fresh suitability test subsequently held.

Further, it was also advised under this office letter No.P(R)535/VI dated 29-8-2006, that in all promotion orders, it should be clearly indicated that if the employee does not carry out promotion/transfer order within 2 weeks / evades by taking leave, it will be deemed to be a refusal and will be dealt accordingly.

Doubts have been raised by one of the Division as to whether a vacancy for the employee who has refused promotion (non-selection post) is to be reserved for a period of one year or otherwise, in case assessment is made for formation of another select list immediately after a period of six months from the date of formation of the previous select list.

The issue has been examined in detail. As per the extant instructions Non-selection posts are filled by promotion of the senior most suitable railway servants from the select lists published. If any employee refuses promotion on transfer, he should be debarred for future promotion for a period of one year. Having regard to this, it is decided that if any employee refuses promotion on transfer, a vacancy may be reserved in such a case till the completion of the period of debarment . While assessing vacancies for forming the next select list, the number of posts in the previous select list which were unfilled due to refusal should be excluded from the assessment.

It is also clarified that if any employee refuses promotion/transfer order, the date of refusal in such cases may be taken from the date of refusal given by the employee or 15 days from the date of issue of promotion/transfer orders, whichever is earlier.

This issues with the approval of CPO.***

Sub: Promotion of employees placed in the panel – Treatment of SC/ST candidates selected on their own merit vis-a-vis their juniors promoted/placed against reserved points.

…In terms of para 219(i) of IREM the names of selected candidates should be arranged in the

panel in the order of seniority but those securing a total of 80% or more marks will be classed as outstanding and placed in the panel appropriately in order of their seniority allowing them to supersede not more than 50% of total field of eligibility.

Para 219(j) & Para 219(j)(iv) of IREM envisage that for general posts i.e., those outside the normal channel of promotion for which candidates are called from different categories whether in the same department or from different department, the final panel should be drawn up in order of seniority from amongst those who secure a minimum of 60% in the professional ability and 60% marks in the aggregate, provided that those securing a total of 80% or more marks will be classed as outstanding and placed at the top en-bloc of the panel in order of seniority.

Doubts have been raised by some of the Divisions/Units as to how the promotions of the employees placed in the panel are to be made

119

1. Whether promotions should be ordered in the order of seniority or as per the Roster points strictly as per the post based roster, and2. The status of senior reserved community candidates who have found place in the panel as per own merit as UR candidates vis-à-vis their junior reserved community candidates booked against reserved points.3. Whether the instructions contained in S.C.No.152/2002 and 116/2003 supersede the entire instructions contained in 195/99 in regard to determination of status of SCs/STs who get promoted in selection posts on their own merit.In this context, it is clarified that

1. Once the panel is finalized, the promotions against ‘Unreserved’ as well as ‘Reserved’ points of the roster have to be made in the order of seniority notwithstanding the fact that there is a backlog against the particular reserved community in the roster.

2. The senior reserved community candidates who have found place in the panel as per own merit as ‘UR’ candidates do not lose their status of belonging to the reserved category and should be promoted against the reserved vacancy with a remark “on own merit” in the appropriate column of the roster against their name. Later on, as and when junior reserved community employee is promoted against unreserved vacancy, “Point utilized by SC/ST as the case may be ” is to be indicated against his name in the appropriate column of the roster.

3. The clarification given in S.C.No.152/2002 & 116/2003 is applicable to such of the SC/ST candidates who are selected by applying the general standard and whose names in the panel appear within the number of unreserved vacancies and adjusted against UR points and not to other SC/ST employees who have qualified on their own merit and are not within the seniority of unreserved vacancies. In order to achieve the percentage of reservation of reserved community candidates, the post based rosters are introduced. The order of points in the post based roster is not to be construed as order of seniority of the employees. Once the promotions of all employees in the panel are ordered, the points in the post based roster book may be adjusted in a suitable manner with proper remark “own merit/point utilized by SC/ST as the case may be in the appropriate column of the post based roster. At no point of time the senior reserved community employee in the panel should be overlooked while ordering the promotions.This issues with the approval of CPO.

Sub: Implementation of recommendations of 6th CPC – merger of grades – promotion within the same grade pay – Clarification regarding.

***In continuation of this Ministry’s letter of even number, dt. 23.09.2008, it is clarified that in

cases where two or more existing scales of pay ‘A’ and ‘B’ or ‘A’, ‘B’ and ‘C’ have been merged into a single grade pay ‘X’ or where an existing scale say ‘A’ has been upgraded to allot the grade pay, which has been allotted to existing next higher grade say ‘B’ in the hierarchy, in such cases selections and promotion from the existing lower scale to the existing higher scale[s], should not be made. Promotions from existing lower scales to the existing scale ‘A’ should likewise cease. Further in such cases, action on selections etc. already in process should be stayed and the panels / suitability lists already existing should also not be operated. 2. Where merger of scales is not involved and a grade in the existing scale has been replaced by grade pay, promotions may continue to be made in accordance with the existing classification. 3. However, this will not apply to the cases of promotion of running categories viz. Loco Pilots and Guards, wherein the existing channel of promotion will continue till further orders. It is also clarified that the promotion to the post of Technicians /MCM/ Sr. Supervisors [P.Way] etc. which also have been allotted the grade pay Rs.4200 should not be treated as merged with JE-II / JE-I and promotions to the post of technicians in Grade Pay Rs.4200 may continue to be made as per existing classification. However, promotions from Technicians /MCM/ Sr. Supervisors [P.Way] to the posts of JE-II/JE-I, which have also been allotted Grade Pay Rs.4200, should not be made.

Copy of Board’s letter No.PC-V/2009/ACP-2 dated 10.6.2009 RBE No.101/2009 (PC VI-110)

Sub: Recommendations of the Sixth Central Pay Commission –Modified Assured Career Progression Scheme [MACPS] for Railway employees.

****The Sixth Central Pay Commission in Para 6.1.15 of its report, has recommended Modified

Assured Career Progression Scheme [MACPS]. As per the recommendations, financial upgradation will be available in the next higher Grade Pay whenever an employee has completed 12 years continuous service in the same grade. However, not more than two financial upgradations shall be given in the entire career, as was provided in the previous Scheme. The Scheme will also be available to all posts belonging to Group ‘A’ whether isolated or not. However, organized Group ‘A’ services will not be covered under the Scheme.

122

2. The Government has considered the recommendations of the Sixth Central Pay Commission for introduction of a MACPS and has accepted the same with further modification to grant three financial upgradations under the MACPS at intervals of 10, 20 and 30 years of continuous regular service.3. The Scheme would be known as “MODIFIED ASSURED CAREER PROGRESSION SCHEME [MACPS] FOR RAILWAY EMPLOYEES. This scheme is in supersession of previous ACP Scheme and clarifications issued there under and shall be applicable to all regularly appointed Group ‘A’, ‘B’, and ‘C’ Railway employees except officers of the Organised Group ‘A’ service. The status of Group ‘D’ employees would cease on their completion of prescribed training as recommended by the Sixth Central Pay Commission and would be treated as Group ‘C’ employees. Casual employees, including those granted ‘temporary status’ and employees appointed in the Railways only on adhoc or contract basis shall not qualify for benefits under the aforesaid Scheme. The details of the MACP Scheme and conditions for grant of the financial upgradation under the Scheme are given in Annexure.4. A Screening Committee shall be constituted in each Department to consider the case for grant of financial upgradations under the MACP Scheme. The Screening Committee shall consist of a Chairperson and two members. The members of the Committee shall comprise officers holding posts which are at least one level above the grade in which the MACP is to be considered and not below Senior Scale grade [PB-3, GP Rs.6600]. The Chairperson should be a grade above the members of the Committee. 5. The recommendations of the Screening Committee shall be placed before the Secretary in cases where the Committee is constituted in the Ministry / Department or before the Head of the organisation / competent authority in other cases for approval. 6. In order to prevent undue strain on the administrative machinery, the Screening Committee shall follow a time-schedule and meet twice in a financial year – preferably in the first week of January and first week of July of a year for advance processing of the cases maturing in that half. Accordingly, cases maturing during the first-half [April – September] of a particular financial year shall be taken up for consideration by the Screening Committee meeting in the first week of January. Similarly, the Screening Committee meeting in the first week of July of any financial year shall process the cases that would be maturing during the second-half [October – March] of the same financial year. 7. However, to make the MACP Scheme operational, the Cadre Controlling Authorities shall constitute the first Screening Committee within a month from the date of issue of these instructions to consider the cases maturing upto 30th June, 2009 for grant of benefits under the MACPS.8. The scheme would be operational with effect from 01.09.2008. In other words, financial upgradations as per the provisions of the earlier ACP Scheme [ of October ,1999] would be granted till 31.08.2008. 9. No stepping up of pay in the pay band or Grade Pay would be admissible with regard to junior getting more pay than the senior on account of pay fixation under MACP Scheme. 11. It is clarified that no past cases would be re-opened. Further, while implementing the MACP Scheme, the differences in pay scales on account of grant of financial upgradation under the old ACP Scheme [of October, 1999] and under the MACP Scheme within the same cadre shall not be construed as an anomaly.

ANNEXURE-IMODIFIED ASSURED CAREER PROGRESSION SCHEME [MACPS]

1. There shall be three financial upgradations under the MACPS, counted from the direct entry grade on completion of 10, 20 and 30 years of service respectively. Financial upgradation under the Scheme will be admissible whenever a person has spent 10 years continuously in the same Grade-Pay.

2. The MACPS envisages merely placement in the immediate next higher Grade Pay in the hierarchy of the recommended revised Pay Bands and Grade Pay as given in Section-I, Part-A of the first schedule of the Railway Services [Revised Pay] Rules, 2008. Thus, the Grade Pay at the time of financial upgradation under the MACPS can, in certain cases where regular promotion is not between two successive grades, be different than what is available at the time of regular promotion. In such cases, the higher Grade Pay attached to the next promotion post in the hierarchy of the concerned cadre / organization will be given only at the time of regular promotion.

3. The financial upgradations under the MACPS would be admissible up to the highest Grade Pay of Rs.12000/- in the PB-4.

123

4. Benefit of pay fixation available at the time of regular promotion shall also be allowed at the time of financial upgradation under the Scheme. Therefore, the pay shall be raised by 3% of the total pay in the Pay Band and the Grade Pay drawn before such upgradation. There shall, however, be no further fixation of pay at the time of regular promotion if it is in the same Grade Pay as granted under MACPS. However, at the time of actual promotion if it happens to be in a post carrying higher Grade Pay than what is available under MACPS, no pay fixation would be available and only difference of Grade Pay would be made available. To illustrate, in case a Railway Servant joins as a direct recruit in the Grade Pay of Rs.1900 in PB-1 and he gets no promotion till completion of 10 years of service, he will be granted financial upgradation under MACPS in the next higher Grade Pay of Rs.2000 and his pay will be fixed by granting him one increment plus the difference of Grade Pay [i.e., Rs.100 ]. After availing financial upgradation under MACPS, if the Railway servant gets his regular promotion in the hierarchy of his cadre, which is to the grade of Rs.2400, on regular promotion, he will only be granted the difference of Grade Pay between Rs.2000 and Rs.2400. No additional increment will be granted at this stage.

5. Promotions earned /upgradations granted under the ACP Scheme in the past to those grades which now carry the same Grade Pay due to merger of pay scales / upgradations of posts recommended by the Sixth Pay Commission shall be ignored for the purpose of granting upgradations under Modified ACPS.

Illustration

The pre-revised hierarchy [ in ascending order ] in a particular organization was as follows:Rs.5000-8000, Rs.5500-9000 & Rs.6500-10500.

[a] A Railway servant who was recruited in the hierarchy in the pre-revised pay scale Rs.5000-8000 and who did not get a promotion even after 25 years of service prior to 1.1.2006, in his case as on 1.1.2006 he would have got two financial upgradations under ACP to the next grades in the hierarchy of his organisation, i.e., to the pre-revised scales of 5500-9000 and Rs.6500-10500.[b] Another Railway servant recruited in the same hierarchy in the pre-revised scale of Rs.5000-8000 has also completed about 25 years of service, but he got two promotions to the next higher grades of Rs.5500-9000 and Rs.6500-10500 during this period.

In the case of both [a] and [b] above, the promotions/financial upgradations granted under ACP to the pre-revised scales of Rs.5500-9000 and Rs.6500-10500 prior to 1.1.2006 will be ignored on account of merger of the pre-revised scales of Rs.5000-8000, Rs.5500-9000 & Rs.6500-10500 recommended by the Sixth CPC. As per Railway Services [RP] Rules, both of them will be granted Grade Pay of Rs.4200 in the Pay Band PB-2. After the implementation of MACPS, two financial upgradations will be granted both in the case of [a] and [b] above to the next higher Grade Pays of Rs.4600 and Rs.4800 in the Pay Band PB-2.

6. In the case of all the employees granted financial upgradations under ACPS till 01.01.2006, their revised pay will be fixed with reference to the pay scale granted to them under the ACPS. 6.1 In the case of ACP upgradations granted between 01.01.2006 and 31.08.2008, the Railway servant has the option under the Railway Services [RP] Rules, 2008 to have his pay fixed in the revised pay structure either [a] w.e.f. 0101.2006 with reference to his re-revised scale as on 01.01.2006; or [b] w.e.f. the date of his financial upgradation under ACP with reference to the pre-revised scale granted under ACP. In case of option [b], he shall be entitled to draw his arrears of pay only from the date of his option i.e. the date of financial upgradation under ACP.6.2 In cases where financial upgradation had been granted to Railway servants in the next higher scale in the hierarchy of their cadre as per the provisions of the ACP Scheme of October,1999 but whereas as a result of the implementation of Sixth CPC’s recommendations, the next higher post in the hierarchy of the cadre has been upgraded by granting a higher Grade Pay, the pay of such employees in the revised pay structure will be fixed with reference to the higher Grade Pay granted to the post. To illustrate, in the case of Jr. Engineer in CPWD, who was granted 1st ACP in his hierarchy to the grade of Asst. Engineer in the pre-revised scale of Rs.6500-10500 corresponding to the revised Grade Pay of Rs.4200 in the Pay Band PB-2, he will now be granted Grade Pay of Rs.4600 in the Pay Band PB-2 consequent upon upgradation of the post of Asstt. Enggs. in CPWD by granting them the Grade Pay of Rs.4600 in PB-2 as a result of Sixth CPC’s recommendations. However, from the date of implementation of the MACPS, all the financial upgradations under the Scheme should be done strictly in accordance with the hierarchy of Grade Pays in Pay Bands as notified vide Railway Services [Revised Pay] Rules, 2008.

7. With regard to fixation of his pay on grant of promotion / financial upgradation under MACP Scheme, a Railway servant has an option under Rule 1313 [1] [a][i] of the Indian Railway Establishment Code Vol.II, [Sixth Edition, 1987- Second Re-print -2005] {FR22[1] [a] [i]} to get his fixed in the higher post / Grade Pay either from the date of his promotion /upgradation or from the date of next increment viz., 1 st July of the year. The pay and the date of increment would be fixed in accordance with clarification no.2 of Railway Board’s letter No. PC-VI /2008/I/RSRP/1 dated 25.09.2008 [PC-VI/22, RBE No. 132/2008].

124

8. Promotions earned in the post carrying same Grade Pay in the promotional hierarchy as per Recruitment Rules shall be counted for the purpose of MACPS.8.1. Consequent upon the implementation of Sixth CPC’s recommendation, Grade Pay of Rs.5400 is now in two pay bands viz., PB-2 and PB-3. The Grade Pay of Rs.5400 in PB-2 and Rs.5400 in PB-3 shall be treated as separate Grade Pays for the purpose of grant of upgradations under MACPS.

9. ‘Regular Service’ for the purpose of the MACPS shall commence from the date of joining of a post in direct entry grade on a regular basis either on direct recruitment basis or on absorption /re-employment basis. Service rendered on adhoc /contract basis before regular appointment on pre-appointment training shall not be taken into reckoning. However, past continuous regular service in another Government/ Department in a post carrying same Grade Pay prior to regular appointment in a new Department, without a break, shall also be counted towards qualifying regular service for the purposes of MACPS only [and not for the regular promotions]. However, benefits under the MACPS in such cases shall not be considered till the satisfactory completion of the probation period in the new post.

10. Past service rendered by a Railway employee in a State Government /statutory body / Autonomous body / Public Sector organization, before appointment in the Railways shall not be counted towards Regular Service.

11. ‘Regular service’ shall include all periods spent on deputation /foreign service, study leave and all other kinds of leave, duly sanctioned by the competent authority.

12. The MACPS shall also be applicable to work charged posts, if their service conditions are comparable with the staff of regular establishment.

13. Existing time-bound promotion scheme, including in-situ promotion scheme, /Staff Car Driver Scheme or any other kind of promotion scheme existing for a particular category of employees in the Railways, may continue to be operational for the concerned category of employees if it is decided by the concerned administrative authorities to retain such Schemes, after necessary consultations or they may switch-over to the MACPS. However, these Schemes shall not run concurrently with the MACPS.

14. The MACPS is directly applicable only to Railway employees. It will not get automatically extended to employees of l Autonomous / Statutory Bodies under the administrative control of Ministry of Railways. Keeping in view the financial implications involved, a conscious decision in this regard shall have to be taken by the Governing Body /Board of Directors and Ministry of Railways and where it is proposed to adopt the MACPS, prior concurrence of Ministry of Finance shall be obtained.

15. If a financial upgradation under the MACPS is deferred and not allowed after 10 years in a Grade Pay, due to the reason of the employees being unfit or due to departmental proceedings, etc., this would have consequential effect on the subsequent financial upgradation which would also get deferred to the extent of delay in grant of first financial upgradation.

16. On grant of financial upgradation under the Scheme, there shall be no change in the designation, classification or higher status. However, financial and certain other benefits which are linked to the pay drawn by an employee such as HBA, allotment of Government accommodation shall be permitted.

17. The financial upgradation would be on non-functional basis subject to fitness, in the hierarchy of Grade Pay within the PB-1. Thereafter for upgradation under the MACPS the benchmark of ‘good’ would be applicable till the grade of pay of Rs.6600/- in PB-3. The benchmark will be ‘Very Good’ for financial upgradation to the Grade Pay of Rs.7600 and above.

18. In the matter of disciplinary /penalty proceedings, grant of benefit under the MACPS shall be subject to rules governing normal promotion. Such cases shall, therefore, be regulated under the provisions of the Railway Servants [Discipline and Appeal ] Rules, 1968 and instructions issued thereunder.

19. The MACPS contemplates merely placement on personal basis in the immediate higher Grade Pay /grant of financial benefits only and shall not amount to actual/ functional promotion of the employees concerned. Therefore, no reservation orders/rosters shall apply to the MACPS, which shall extend its benefits uniformly to all eligible SC/ST employees also. However, the rules of reservation in promotion shall be ensured at the time of regular promotion. For this reason, it shall not be mandatory to associate members of SC/ST in the Screening Committee meant to consider cases for grant of financial upgradation under the Scheme.

20. Financial upgradation under the MACPS shall be purely personal to the employee and shall have no relevance to his seniority position. As such, there shall be no additional financial upgradation for the senior employees on the ground that the junior employee in the grade has got higher pay/Grade Pay under MACPS.

21. Pay drawn in the Pay Band and the Grade Pay allowed under the MACPS shall be taken as the basis for determining the terminal benefits in respect of the retiring employee.

125

22. If the Group ‘A’ Railway employee, who was not covered under the ACP Scheme has now become entitled to say third financial upgradation directly, having completed 30 years regular service, his pay shall be fixed successively in next three immediate higher Grade Pays in the hierarchy of revised pay –bands and Grade Pays allowing the benefit of 3% pay fixation at every stage. Pay of persons becoming eligible for second financial upgradation may also be fixed accordingly.

23. In case an employee is declared surplus in his /her organization and appointed in the same pay-scale or lower scale of pay in the new organization, the regular service rendered by him / her in the previous organization shall be counted towards the regular service in his /her new organization for the purpose of giving financial upgradation under the MACPS.

24. In case of an employee after getting promotion /ACP seeks unilateral transfer on a lower post or lower scale, he will be entitled only for second and third financial upgradations on completion of 20/30 years of regular service under the MACPS, as the case may be, from the date of his initial appointment to the post in the new organization.

25. If a regular promotion has been offered but was refused by the employee before becoming entitled to a financial upgradation, no financial upgradation shall be allowed as such an employee has not been stagnated due to lack of opportunities. If, however, financial upgradation has been allowed due to stagnation and the employee subsequently refuse the promotion, it shall not be a ground to withdraw the financial upgradation. He shall, however, not be eligible to be considered for further financial upgradation till he agrees to be considered for promotion again and the second or the next financial upgradation shall also be deferred to the extent of period of debarment due to the refusal.

26. Cases of persons holding higher posts purely on adhoc basis shall also be considered by the Screening Committee along with others. They may be allowed the benefit of financial upgradation on reversion to the lower post or if it is beneficial vis-à-vis the pay drawn on adhoc basis.

27. Employees on deputation need not revert to the parent Department for availing the benefit of financial upgradation under the MACPS. They may exercise a fresh option to draw the pay in the Pay Band and the Grade Pay of the post held by them or the pay plus Grade Pay admissible to them under the MACPS, whichever is beneficial.

28. Illustrations:A [i] If a Government servant [LDC] in PB-1 in the Grade Pay of Rs.1900 gets his first regular

promotion [UDC] in the PB-1 in the Grade Pay of Rs.2400 on completion of 8 years of service and then continues in the same Grade Pay for further 10 years without any promotion then he would be eligible for 2nd financial upgradation under the MACPS in the PB-1 in the Grade Pay of Rs.2800 after completion of 18 years [8+10 years].

[ii] In case he does not get any promotion thereafter, then he would get 3rd financial upgradation in the PB-II in Grade Pay of Rs.4200 on completion of further 10 years of service i.e. 28 years [8+10+10]

[iii] However, if he gets 2nd promotion after 5 years of further service in the pay PB-II in the Grade Pay of Rs.4200 [Asst. Grade/Grade’C’] i.e. on completion of 23 years [8+10+5 years] then he would get 3rd financial upgradation after completion of 30 years of 30 years i.e. 10 years after the 2nd ACP in the PB-II in the Grade Pay of Rs.4600. In the above scenario, the pay shall be raised by 3% of the total pay in the Pay Band and Grade Pay drawn before such upgradation. There shall, however, be no further fixation of pay at the time of regular promotion if it is in the same Grade Pay or in the higher Grade Pay. Only the difference of Grade Pay would be admissible at the time of promotions.

B. If a Railway servant [LDC] in PB-1 in the Grade Pay of Rs.1900 is granted 1st financial upgradation under the MACPS on completion of 10 years of service in the PB-1 in the Grade Pay of Rs.2000 and 5 years later he gets 1st regular promotion [UDC] in PB-1 in the Grade Pay of Rs.2400, and the 2nd financial upgradation under MACPS [ in the next Grade Pay w.r.t. Grade Pay held by Railway servant] will be granted on completion 20 years of service in PB-1 in the Grade Pay of Rs.2800. On completion of 30 years of service, he will get 3rd ACP in the Grade Pay of Rs. 4200. However, if two promotions are earned before completion of 20 years, only 3 rd financial upgradation would be admissible on completion of 10 years of service in Grade Pay from the date of second promotion or at the 30 th year of service , whichever is earlier.

C. If a Railway servant has been granted either two regular promotions or 2nd financial upgradation under the ACP Scheme of October 1999 after completion of 24 years of regular service then only 3rd financial upgradation would be admissible to him under the MACPS on completion of 30 years of service provided that he has not earned third promotion in the hierarchy.

****Ministry of Health & Family Welfare vide their OM No.A.45012/2/2008-CHS.V dated

21.07.2009 have issued certain clarification on the above subject in consultation with the Department of Expenditure.2. Pursuant to the above and in continuation to the Board’s letter of even number dated 7.1.2009, it is clarified that it was not the intention to straightaway grant Senior Administrative Grade (Grade Pay of Rs.10,000 in PB-4) to an individual on mere completion of 20 years of service even if he was still a Medical Officer or Sr. Medical Officer. In fact, for being eligible for upgradation under DACP Scheme, a doctor has to render minimum qualifying service in the immediate lower grade as prescribed in the letter dated 7.1.09 ibid. Therefore, the question of direct promotion under DACP to the Senior Administrative Grade from the grade Pays of Rs.5400, 6600 and 7600 in the Pay Band-3 does not arise.3. It has, therefore, been decided that at the time of initial implementation of the Scheme (i.e. as on 07.01.2009, the date of issue of the said letter), depending on the length of Service rendered by a Medical Doctor, he can be directly placed in the grade corresponding to his length of services prescribed by the letter dated 7.1.2009 subject to the condition that such placement will be done only upto NFSG Scale i.e. Grade Pay of Rs.8700/- in the Pay Band-4.4. To illustrate, at the time of initial implementation of DACP Scheme for doctors working in isolated Post/Cadres the following methodology may be adopted:(a) A medical Doctor with less than 13 but more than 9 years of service whether in the

Grade Pay of Rs.5400 in the Pay Band-3, or in the Grade Pay of Rs.6600 in the Pay Band-3 can be directly placed in the revised pay structure of Grade Pay of Rs.7600 in the Pay Band-3.

(b) A Medical Doctor with more than 13 years of service whether in the Grade Pay of Rs.5400 in the Pay Band-3, or in the Grade Pay of Rs.6600 in the Pay Band-3, or in the Grade Pay of Rs.7600 in the Pay Band-3 can be directly placed in the NFSG Pay structure of Grade Pay of Rs.8700 in the Pay Band-4.

(c) A Doctor with more than 20 years of regular service and already regularly promoted as CMO-NFSG (Grade Pay of Rs.8700 in the Pay Band-4) on the date of initial implementation of the Scheme can be granted SAG pay structure of Grade Pay of Rs.10000 in the Pay Band-4 without rendering full 7 years of service in the NFSG grade.

5. Having been granted financial upgradation under DACP in above manner at the time of initial implementation of the Scheme, thereafter, the Doctors would have to earn their next upgradation under DACP Scheme as per the eligibility of service prescribed in the letter of even number, dated 07.01.2009.

****

ANNEX-I

TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR GRANT OF HIGHER PAY SCALE ON NON-FUNCTIONAL BASIS TO OFFICERS OF ORGANISED GR.’A’ SERVICES.

1. The non functional up-gradation granted under these orders will be based on empanelment and posting of particular batch of IAS officer in the Centre. Such up-gradation would not be linked to the vacancies in the grade.

2 The up-gradation granted under these orders will be a purely non-functional up-gradation, personal to the officer and it would not bestow any right to the officer to claim promotion or deputation benefits based on non-functional up-gradation in such a manner.

3 All the prescribed eligibility criteria and promotional norms including ‘benchmark’ for up-gradation to a particular grade pay would have to be met at the time of screening for grant of higher pay scale under these orders.

4 A screening committee would be formed by the Ministry for implementation of these orders. There would be three members in committee so formed and they would at-least be one level above the grade for which upgradation is being considered. Secretary of the Ministry concerned would chair the committee.

5 All instructions concerning grant of non-functional upgradation presently applicable in the case of grant of NFSG to officers of Group A services would apply in the event of penalty, disciplinary proceedings, suspension etc.

6 Orders will be issued with the approval of the competent authority. Grant of higher pay scale on the non-functional basis would be from the date of posting of the first officer belonging to the particular batch of IAS officer at the centre. In case of any delay in the issue of orders, financial benefits under these orders will be given from the due date.

7. (i) Pay fixation on grant of non-functional up-gradation under these orders will be done as per the provisions of CCS(RP) Rules,2008 i.e. the officers will be granted one increment at the rate of 3% of basic pay and the difference of grade pay will be added to their basic pay.(ii) As far as similarly placed officers of organized Gr.A services, who are posted under the Central Staffing Scheme are concerned, they will be granted one additional increment on account of the non-functional up-gradation, but their grade pay will remain unchanged on the ground that they are holding a particular post with a specific grade pay under the Central Staffing Scheme. In such cases the officers granted non-functional up-gradation

132

may continue to draw CDTA if admissible.8 As and when the normal vacancies in the grade arise, the officer will be considered for

regular promotion as per the normal DPC guidelines, based on the provisions of the recruitment rules. UPSC will be consulted wherever the rules provide for the same. However at the time of promotion, the pay in the grade will not be fixed again for officers who have been granted upgradation under these orders.

9 Officers on deputation/study leave or any other duly sanctioned leave would also be considered and granted higher pay scale on non-functional basis according to the prescribed procedure.

10 Non-functional up-gradation to the next higher grade pay granted under the scheme is a fall back option only, to be applied in cases where officers of a particular Service have not been granted promotion to a particular grade in normal course according to the due procedure.

11 ILLUSTRATION: If officers of 1987 batch of IAS are empanelled as Joint Secretary in the grade pay of Rs.10,000/- in PB-4 and an officer of the batch gets posted in the Centre(under Central Staffing Scheme ) on 15 th January 2008, all the officers of the 1985 batch of organized Gr.A Central Services who have not been promoted to the Joint Secretary or equivalent grade and who are eligible for the same on 1.1.2007 for the panel year 2007-08, would be appointed to the same grade on non-functional basis under these instructions w.e.f. 15.1.2008. Same would be the case in the event of posting of an officer of particular batch as Deputy Secretary/Director under Central Staffing scheme.

Sub: Non-functional upgradation for Officers of Organised Group ‘A’ services in PB-3 and PB-4- Clarifications

*****This Department vide OM dated 24.4.09 issued instructions regarding non-functional

upgradation for officers of Organised Group A services in PB-3 and PB-4. Subsequently vide OM dated 21.5.09, details regarding the batch of officers belonging to the IAS and who have been posted at the Centre in various grades of PB-3 and PB-4 w.e.f. 1.1.2006 as well as the date of posting of the first officer belonging to the batch were indicated. In this connection, clarifications have been sought from this Department by some Ministries/Departments and by individual representations. The same have been considered by this Department in consultation with Department of Expenditure and following clarifications are issued.

Point of doubt Clarification1 This office Memo refers to the term ‘Batch’. In

Central Civil Services and Indian Engineering Services, the definition of a batch is, the year in which the exam is conducted. In some other services, the recruitment is done through interview only. Where recruitment is done through interview only, the Batch is the year in which the Advertisement is issued by the UPSC or the year of interview for recruitment

Since different services have different criteria for defining ‘Batch’, the term ‘Batch’ in the OM refers to the year of joining the service.

2 In some services, there is induction of Group B officers into the Organised Group A service. Whether these officers will be eligible for the benefits under this OM. If so how the criteria of batch will be decided in their case.

Officers inducted into Group ‘A’ Organised service will also be eligible for the benefit of Non-functional upgradation. They shall be assigned the benefit of ‘Batch’ corresponding to the batch of the ‘direct recruit’ officers with whom their seniority is clubbed.

3 In the OM dated 21.5.09, all officers of Group A services belonging to 1984 and earlier batches are clubbed together for providing the non-functional upgradation to SAG w.e.f. 26.10.2006, the date on which the first officer of 1986 batch of IAS was appointed as JS at the Centre. The cut

The scheme for non-functional upgradation of officers of Organised Group A services in PB-3 and PB-4 is based on the recommendations of the 6th

CPC. These recommendations have been implemented only from 1.1.2006.

133

Point of doubt Clarificationoff date for granting non-functional upgradation to SAG to batches senior to the 1984 batch should have been 01.01.2006. Similarly in other grades.

As such, any upgradation can be only with reference to the officers of IAS posted to the Centre after 1.1.06. Therefore, the request for granting non-functional upgradation w.e.f. 1.1.06 is not permissible.

4 Para 7 of the terms and conditions of Annexure I provides that pay fixation will be done as per the provisions of CCS(RP) Rules,2008.Whether the officers can exercise option regarding date of fixation in the higher scale as provided in CCS (RP) Rules.

Provisions of CCS(RP) Rules, 2008 will apply

5. Whether retired employees are to be granted the benefit of non functional upgradation.

Para 6 of our instructions provide that benefits would be from due date. Therefore, even retired officers who are otherwise eligible as on due date would need to be considered.

The new HAG scale of Rs.67,000-79,000 has been introduced in replacement of the pre-revised S-30 scale. It is clarified that consequent upon the carving out of the new HAG scale, non-functional upgradation under the scheme will be available to particular Grade Pays in PB-3 and PB-4 and also to the HAG scale. SAG officers can be allowed Non-functional upgradation to the HAG Grade only where there is such a Grade in the Service.

Sub: Filling up the posts in Group ‘C’ category from Grade Pay Rs.1800/- to Grade Pay Rs.1900 in PB-1 (Rs.5200-20200) against the prescribed percentages.

***Attention is invited to Para 104 of IREM, 1989 Edition, which stipulates that all

appointments will be made on probation for a period of two years. For trainees or apprentices appointed to a working post after the conclusion of their training, the probationary period commences on the date of such appointment.

Para 189[4][ii] of IREM envisages that Group D Railway servants, to be eligible for promotion to Group ‘C’ posts, against 33. 1/3 % quota, should have put in a minimum of three years of continuous service. This does not apply to SC/ ST candidates.

Reference is invited to Board’s letter dt. 22.2.2003 (S.C.No.33/2003) wherein clarification was issued that while the concession of service rendered as CL/Substitutes towards reckoning service required as eligibility condition for appearing in the selection for promotion to Group ‘C’ posts against 33.1/3 % will continue to be available, subject to the condition that no person will be eligible to appear in the selection unless he has satisfactorily completed the period of probation in the recruitment grade.

During probation, performance of an employee for retention in service is under observation, he/she cannot be considered for further promotion during the said period. As such the eligibility for appearing in the selection for promotion to Group ‘C’ posts has been made subject to satisfactory completion of probation. Probation is required to be completed in regular employment only as against ad-hoc or casual service. Though the concession is available to SC/ST candidates to appear for Group ‘C’ posts without any service condition as per para 189[4][ii] of IREM, it is subject to satisfactory completion of period of probation of 2 years in the regular employment.

134

Despite the existence of the above instructions, notifications are being issued by the Divisions/units without stipulating the condition of satisfactory completion of the period of probation in the regular employment for filling up the posts in Group ‘C’ category from Grade Pay Rs.1800/- to Grade Pay Rs.1900 in PB-1 ( Rs.5200-20200) against the prescribed percentages.

Henceforth in all the notifications being issued for filling up the posts in Group ‘C’ category from Grade Pay Rs.1800/- to Grade Pay Rs.1900 in PB-1 ( Rs.5200-20200) against 33.1/3% and 16.2/3% quotas, the following may be incorporated along with other existing conditions :

1. All employees volunteering, including SC/ST who have satisfactorily completed the 2 year period of probation in the recruitment grade need only apply.Note: In respect of trainees or apprentices the probationary period commences from the date he/she is appointed to a working post after conclusion of training/apprenticeship

2. CL/Substitute service rendered after conferment of T/Status before regular absorption will be counted as service for appearing in the selection for promotion to Group ‘C’ posts, subject to satisfactory completion of the period of probation of 2 years in regular employment.

…Attention is invited to Board’s letter No.PC-V/2009/ACP/2 dated 10.6.2008, (S.CNo.85/2009)

regarding Modified Assured Career Progression scheme for Railway employees w.e.f. 1.9.2008. It was advised in the above circular that the cadre controlling officer shall constitute the first screening committee within one month from the date of issue of the instructions, to consider the cases maturing upto 30.06.2009 for grant of benefits under the MACPS. Action in this regard would have been taken by the Cadre Controlling Officers.

The following further instructions are issued to regulate the benefit under MACPS to the eligible employees :-

1. MACPS is to be granted by perusal of Service records / ACRS ( as the case may be) of the employees by the Screening Committee on non-functional basis as under:-

i) subject to declaring fitness in the hierarchy of grade pay within PB-1.ii) Benchmark of ‘good’ till the grade pay of Rs.6600/- in PB-3.iii) Benchmark of ‘Very good’ to the grade pay of Rs.7600/-and above.

ACRS/Working report of last 03 years, including the latest, should be considered for the above purpose.

ACRs /Service records (where applicable) and DAR/SPE/Vigilance clearances should be called for in respect of all the candidates who are eligible for the benefit of MACPS in advance so that the same can be put up to Screening Committee.

Where one or more ACRs have not been written for any reason during the relevant period the Screening Committee should consider the ACRs of the years preceding the period in question and, if in any case even these are not available, the Screening Committee should take the ACRs of lower grade into account, to complete the number of ACRs required to be considered. If this is also not possible, all the available ACRs should be taken into account. (Auth: SCR S.C.No.54/97)

135

2. Promotions/upgradations granted under the ACPS in the past to those grades which now carry the same grade pay due to merger of pay scales/ upgradations of posts shall be ignored for the purpose of granting financial upgradation under MACPS. ( Item 5 of Annexure to Bd’s letter)

For example, in case of employees who earned the financial upgradation/ promotion to the post of OS-II, OS-II Typing/ OS-I Typing/ Stenographer Gr. I / PS-II/ JE Gr.I prior to 1.1.2006, such promotions are to be ignored on account of merger of the pre-revised scales of Rs.5000-8000, Rs.5500-9000 and Rs.6500-10500. In such cases financial upgradation to the next higher grade pay Rs.4600/- may be allowed on completion of requisite residency period provided he was initially recruited to Group ‘C’ category [Grade Pay Rs.1900].

3. Where employees got third promotion on regular basis on a date later to 01.09.2008, but entitled to benefit of 3rd financial upgradation from 1.9.2008, they may be allowed the benefit of 3rd ACP from 1.9.2008.

4. Cases where employees are due for MACPS as on 1.9.2008 and retired /medically de-categorised/expired subsequently are also to be allowed the benefit of ACP from the said date and pensionary benefits revised in such cases, accordingly.

5. Promotions earned in the post carrying same grade pay in the promotional hierarchy as per the rules shall be counted for the purpose of MACPS. This will apply in the case of horizontal promotions granted to running cadre i.e., promotion from Sr.Goods Driver in GP Rs.4200/- to Passenger Driver with GP Rs.4200/-.

6. Service rendered as a Trainee/Apprentice before regular absorption to a working post is not to be counted for the purpose of MACPS.

7. Where employees got two regular promotions without any financial upgradation under the earlier ACP Scheme- 1999 and are stagnating in the same grade pay for more than 10 years in the grade pay attached to the second promotion or on completion of 30 years of service, they are eligible for 3rd financial upgradation under new MACPS.

8. Fixation benefit i.e. 3% of pay plus GP in lower grade is not to be extended to staff transferred at their own request from higher grade to lower grades from one seniority unit to another with protection of pay at the time of grant of 2nd financial upgradation to the same higher grade.

The cases maturing upto 30.6.2009 for grant of benefit under MACPS to the eligible employees

should be completed by 28-8-2009 and compliance reported to Secretary to CPO to apprise the position to CPO.

The matter has been considered by the Board and it has been decided that:[i] in cases where even after merger, mode of filling up in merged grades, as indicted in the statement enclosed with letter dt. 03.09.2009, has not been changed, all such panels, suitability lists [if any] as finalized /partly operated before restriction was imposed on making promotion to such merged grades, which was effective from 04.09.2008, may be further operated. All other panels/suitability lists cease to exist i.e. the cases where a ‘Non-Selection’ post has been changed to ‘Selection’ or ‘Suitability with Prescribed Benchmark’ AND where a ‘Selection’ post has been changed to ‘Non-Selection’ or ‘Suitability with Prescribed Benchmark’ . In the above cases of change of classification/mode of filling up in merged grades, any promotion/filling up of vacancies on or after 04.09.2008, made through a mode other than prescribed in letter dated 03.09.2009 will be treated as adhoc and will not confer any right on the incumbents promoted /posted as such to hold or continue to hold the said post. In such cases of posts where mode of filling up has been changed vide letter dt. 03.09.2009, w.e.f. 04.09.2008 all posts should be filled up as per revised procedure. In case of Running Staff, where existing AVCs were continued any panel/suitability lists finalized before 03.09.2009 may first be operated to fill up the vacancies as existed on 31.08.2009 and then further action for making promotions, as indicated in letter dt. 03.09.2009 should be taken, in case panels/suitability lists finalized earlier have fallen short, in fulfilling the requirements upto 31.08.2009. All vacancies as have arisen on or after 01.09.2009 will be filled up after laying down regular scheme for the same, as indicated in this Ministry’s letter of even number dt. 03.09.2009.[ii] Similarly, selections /suitability tests etc. in above cases of merged grades, where mode of filling up has not changed, same may now be finalized. All other selections/suitability tests shall cease to exist.[iii] It has also been decided that in case as a result of dispensation given at [ii] above, if a panel/suitability list is finalized by the Railways say on 31.12.2009, in such a case, as a one time measure, mandatory time gap between two selections etc., is not required to be observed and next selection etc. for filling up of vacancies as existed on 31.08.2009, may be conducted before such mandatory time gap. However, for further selection normal provision in this regard will apply.

***Please refer to Board’s letter of even number dated 04.12.2009 allowing 50% of Temporary

status casual labour service on absorption in regular employment may be taken into account towards the minimum service of 10, 20 and 30 years for the grant of benefit under the MACP Scheme. 2. Further, on demand from both the federations that the entire service of the substitutes on their absorption in regular service may be reckoned for MACPS purposes, the matter has been carefully considered by the Board. It is found that unlike casual labour whose 50% of temporary status service counts for pensionary benefits, temporary status service in full of the substitutes counts for pensionary benefits. It has, therefore, been decided that the entire temporary status service of substitutes followed by regularisation without break may be taken into account towards the minimum service of 10, 20 and 30 years for the purpose of grant of benefit under the MACP Scheme. 3. This issues with the concurrence of the Finance Directorate of the Ministry of Railways.

2 As per the clarification at Sl.No.1 of Railway Board’s letter dated 12.01.2009, those regular Group `D’ employees who did not posses the minimum qualification and who have retired/died in harness between 01.01.2006 and date of notification of Revised Pay Rules, 2008 will be granted pay band -IS and the grade pay corresponding to their pre-revised pay scale as notified in Railway Services (Revised Pay) Rules, 2008.

3. The aforesaid issue was raised in the 46th Ordinary Meeting of the National Council (JCM) held on 15 May, 2010 and the Staff Side had requested that the cases relating to the non-matriculate class IV employees who retired or died between January 2006 and the date of Notification of Revised Pay Rules, without any re-training be re-considered and such employees should be granted the benefit by re-fixing their pension/family pension at par with those employees who were retrained and whose pay was fixed in PB-1 with grade pay of .1800/-.

4. The request of Staff Side on the subject has been considered by the Government and it has been decided that the regular Group ‘D’ non-matriculate employees who died in harness or have retired between 01.01.2006 and the date of notification of Railway Services (Revised Pay) Rules, 2008, i.e. 04.09.2008, from the Railways would also be placed in PB-1 with grade pay of 1800/- with effect from 01.01.2006. It should however be ensured that if any non-matriculate regular Group `D’ employees have been on leave due to which they could not be retrained, they should be retrained immediately on joining duty.

Sub:Modified ACP Scheme [MACPS] for Railway employees – clarifications regarding

***In continuation to the Board’s letter of even number dated 10.06.2009 notifying the Modified

ACP Scheme for Railway employees, point-wise clarifications on certain issues pertaining to the MACPS, as received from the Department of Personnel & Training are indicated below:

S.No. Point of doubt Clarification1 Whether the Pay Band would

change in the hierarchy of Pay Bands & Grade Pay on grant of the benefits under MACPS?

The upgradations under MACPS are to be granted in the immediate next higher grade pay in the hierarchy of recommended revised pay band and grade pay as prescribed in the RS[RP] Rules, 2008

2 Whether the benefits of MACPS would be allowed to the Railway servants who have been later on inducted in the Organized Group “A” Service

No. The benefit under MACPS is not applicable to Group ‘A’ officer of Organised Group ‘A’ Services, as the officer under Organized Group ‘A’ Services have already been allowed parity of two years on non-functional basis with the officers of Indian Administrative Services (IAS)

3 How will the benefits of ACP be granted if due between 01.01.2006 and 31.08.2008?

The new MACPS has come into existence w.e.f. 01.09.2008. However, the pay structure has been changed w.e.f. 01.01.2006. Therefore the previous ACPS would be applicable in the new pay structure adopted w e f . 01.01.2006. Para 6.1 of Annexure-1 of MACPS is only for exercising option for coming over to the revised pay structure and not for grant of benefits under MACPS.

146

S.No. Point of doubt ClarificationThe following illustrations would explain the position:

(A) In the case of isolated post :

Date of appointment in entry Grade in the pre-revised pay scale of 4000-6000: 01.10.1982

1st ACP granted on 01.10.1999 : 4500-7000 (pre-revised)2nd ACP due on 01. 10. 2006 : 5000-8000 (pre-revised)[revised PB-2 Grade Pay of 4200]3rd financial upgradation under the MACPS would be due on 01.10 2012 (on completion of 30 years of continuous regular service) in the immediate next higher grade pay in the hierarchy of recommended revised pay band and grade pay i.e. Grade Pay of 4600 in PB-2.

(B) In the case of normal promotional hierarchy : Date of appointment in entry Grade in the pre-revised pay scale of 5500-9000: 01.10.19821st ACP granted on 01.10.1999 : 6500-10500 (pre-revised)2nd ACP due on 01.10.2006 (as per the existing hierarchy):

10000-15200 (pre-revised). Therefore, 2nd ACP would be in PB-3 with Grade Pay of 6600 (in terms of hierarchy available):3rd financial upgradation under MACPS would be due on 01.10.2012 in the immediate next higher grade pay in the hierarchy of recommended revised pay band and grade pay of 7600.

4 Whether the benefits of MACPS would be granted from the date of entry grade or from the date of their regular service/approved service counted under various service rules?

The benefits under MACPS would be available from the date of actual joining of the post in the entry grade.

5

In a case where a person is appointed to an ex-cadre post in higher scale on deputation followed by absorption, whether the period spent on deputation would be counted as continuous service in the grade or not for the purpose of MACPS

(i) Where a person is appointed on direct recruitment/deputation basis from another post in the same grade, then past regular service as well as past promotions/ACP, in the earlier post, will be counted for computing regular service for the purpose of MACPS in the new hierarchy.(ii) However, where a person is appointed to an ex-cadre post in higher scale initially on deputation followed by absorption, while the service rendered in the earlier post, which was in a lower scale cannot be counted, there is no objection to the period spent initially on deputation in the ex-cadre post prior to absorption being counted towards regular service for the purposes of grant of financial upgradation under MACPS, as it is in the same Pay band/grade pay of the post.

6 Whether the pay scale /grade pay of substantive post would be taken into account for appointment /selection to a higher post on deputation basis or the pay scale /grade pay carried by a Railway servant on account of financial upgradation[s] under the ACP/MACP Scheme?

The pay scale /grade pay of substantive post would only be taken into account for deciding the eligibility for appointment /selection to a higher post on deputation basis.

7 In a case where 1st/2nd financial upgradations are postponed on account of the employees not found fit or due to departmental proceedings, etc. whether this would have consequential effect on the 2nd/3rd financial upgradation or not.

Yes. If a financial upgradation has been deferred/postponed on account of the employee not found fit or due to departmental proceedings, etc.. the 2nd/3rd financial upgradations under MACPS would have consequential effect. (Para 18 of Annexure-1 of MACPS referred).

8 In a case where the Railway No. Since the Railway servant has already earned three

147

S.No. Point of doubt Clarificationservant has already earned three promotions and still stagnated in one grade for more than 10 years, whether he would be entitled for any further upgradation under MACPS?

promotions, he would not be entitled for any further financial upgradation under MACPS.

9 Whether the pre-revised pay scale of 2750-4400 in respect of Group ‘D’ non matriculate employees, would also be taken as merged to grade pay of 1800 for the purpose of MACPS in view of merger of pre-revised pay scales of

2550-3200, 2610-3540, 2610-4000 and 2650-4000, which have been upgraded and replaced by the revised pay structure of grade pay of 1800 in the pay band PB-1.

Yes

10

If a Railway Servant on deputation earns upgradation under MACPS in the parent cadre, whether he would be entitled for deputation (duty) allowance on the pay and emoluments granted under the MACPS or not?

No. While eligibility of an employee for appointment against ex-cadre posts in terms of the provisions of the RRs of the ex-cadre post will continue to be determined with reference to the post/pay scale of the post held in the parent cadre on regular basis (and not with reference to the higher scale granted under ACPS/MACPS), such an officer, in the event of his selection, may be allowed to opt to draw the pay in the higher scale under ACP/MACP Scheme without deputation allowance during the period of deputation, if it is more beneficial than the normal entitlements under the existing general order regulating pay on appointment on deputation basis.

11 Since the pay scales of Group “D” employees have been merged and placed in the Grade Pay of 1800, whether they are entitled for grant of increment @ 3% during pay fixation at every stage.

Yes. On the analogy of point 22 of Annexure-1 of MACPS, the pay of such Group “D” employees who have been placed in the Grade Pay of `1800 w.e.f. 01.01.2006 shall be fixed successively in the next three immediate higher grade pays in the hierarchy of revised pay bands and grade pays allowing the benefit of 3% pay fixation at every stage.

2. The MACPS should strictly be implemented in keeping with the instructions issued vide Board’s letter dated 10.06.2009 ibid read with the aforesaid clarifications.

148

2. A reference has been received from NFIR stating that some of the Zonal Railways are insisting on rendering of two years service by the Pharmacists in Grade Pay 2800 for being placed in Pay Band-2, Grade Pay 4200 in the revised pay structure ignoring the service rendered by them in the pre-revised pay scale 4500-7000 and requested for issue of suitable clarification to the effect that the service put in by them in the pre-revised scale of 4500-7000 which corresponds to Grade Pay 2800/-should also be taken into account for counting two years service in Grade Pay 2800 stipulated in Board’s letter No.PC-VI/2009/I/RSRP/10 dated 30.03.2010. 3. The matter has been considered in Board’s Office and it is clarified that the regular service rendered by the Pharmacists in the pre-revised scale 4500-7000 should be counted as service in Grade Pay of 2800 for being placed in Non-functional Grade of Pharmacists in Pay Band-2 ( 9300-34800), Grade Pay 4200 in terms of Board’s letter No.PC-Vl/2009/I/RSRP/10 dated 30.03.2010.

Sub: Modified Assured Career Progression Scheme [MACPS] for the Railway employees – Clarifications regarding.

***Subsequent to the issue of Board’s instructions dated 10.06.2009 regarding MACP Scheme a

Joint Committee is set up to examine the anomalies pertaining to the Modified Assured Career Progression Scheme [MACPS] vide Department of Personnel & Training O.M. No. 11/1/2010-JCA, dated 03.05.2010.

2. During the Joint Committee meeting it was pointed out by the Staff Side that the word ‘New Organisation’ of the last line of Para-24 of annexure of MACPS dated 10.6.2009 was not in consonance with the spirit of the Scheme. The issue has been examined and it is clarified that in case of transfer ‘including unilateral transfer on request’, regular service rendered in previous organization/ office shall be counted along with the regular service in the new organization /office for the purpose of getting financial upgradation under the MACPS. However, financial upgradation under the MACPS shall be allowed in the immediate next higher grade pay in the hierarchy of revised pay bands as given in Railway Services [Revised Pay] Rules, 2008. Para-24 of MACPS stands amended to this extent.

3. The Staff Side also raised an issue on the ‘Benchmark’ for MACPS as given in Para-17 of annexure of MACPS dated 10.06.2009 which provides that the financial upgradation would be on Non-functional basis subject to fitness, in the hierarchy of grade pay within the PB-1. Thereafter for upgradation under the MACPS, the bench of ‘Good’ would be applicable till the grade pay of 6600/- in PB-3. The benchmark will be ‘Very Good’ for financial upgradation to the grade pay of R 7600/- and above. It was pointed out that in some cases the promotion to the next higher grade was made on the basis of ‘fitness’ as the method of promotion as specified in the relevant recruitment rules, was non-selection. Therefore, in such cases benchmarks should not be insisted upon under the MACPS. The issue has been examined and it is clarified that where the financial upgradation under MACPS also happen to be in the promotional grade and benchmark for promotion is lower than the benchmark for granting the benefits under MACPS as mentioned in Para-17 ibid, the benchmark for promotion shall apply to MACPS also. This instruction is in continuation of Board’s earlier instruction of even number dated 03.02.2010.

Sub: Modified Assured Career Progression Scheme for the Railway Servants – Clarifications regarding.

… Attention is invited to Board’s letter dated 10.06.2009, circulated under SC No. 85/09

regarding the Modified Assured Career Progression Scheme [MACPS] for the Railway Servants. Consequent upon introduction of the MACPS, clarifications have been sought by some of the divisions/ units on certain issues in connection with implementation of MACPS. The doubts have been examined and clarifications are given below:S.No. Point of Doubt Clarification1 Whether the service from the date of initial

appointment into Railways or subsequent appointment to higher grade posts against Direct Recruitment Quota through RRB [Open market] is to be counted for the purpose of grant of financial upgradation under MACPS to eligible employees.

Employees appointed to higher grade posts through RRBs from open market are to be treated as direct recruits in the higher grade to which they were appointed for the purpose of grant of financial upgradation under MACPS. However, in such cases service rendered in a lower grade pay is not to be counted for the purpose of grant of benefit under MACPS.

2 Whether the case of employees initially engaged as Casual Labour and were granted temporary status in Group D, but were absorbed as Technician Grade III [Group C] in scale 260-400/3050-4590 against 25% DR quota, is to treated as promotion from Group D to C for the purpose of grant of financial upgradation under MACPS or otherwise.

Casual labour who were initially engaged in Group ‘D’ and subsequently absorbed in Group ‘C’ against 25% DR quota without absorption in Group ‘D’, their absorption is not to be taken as promotion for the purpose of grant of financial upgradation under MACPS.

This issues with the approval of CPO. ****

Sub: Ad-hoc promotion of staff in Construction and other projects. …

According to extant procedure, Construction/Projects are treated as extension of the cadre of posts in the Railway/Division in the jurisdiction of which such projects are located and all their requirements are being taken care of by Open Line Administration. Since all such posts are already being taken into account for extending promotion to staff against such posts, there is hardly any post[s] against which such adhoc promotion could be given.

2. The matter has been considered afresh by the Board and it has been decided that in order to avoid unintended benefit to the junior employees working in Construction Organisation, the ad-hoc promotions in Construction Organisation should be restricted and instructions in this regard as contained in Board’s letter No. E[NG]I-97/PM1/30 dated 27.03.1998 read with para 216A of IREM Vol.-I, 1989 should be strictly adhered to. In no case, second ad-hoc promotion should be allowed under any circumstances. 3. It has also been decided that henceforth all promotions shall be done with the approval of the Cadre Controlling authority who is competent to issue regular promotions. The need for ad-hoc promotion should be personally approved by the Cadre Controlling Authority of the Open Line before any such ad-hoc promotion is granted by Construction Organisation.

In this connection, it is clarified that Engineering Graduates recruited initially in the grade of 5500- 9000 & promoted to 6500-10500 against the 20% DR quota in terms of Board’s letter

dated 28.9.1998 ibid be treated at par with the fresh recruits in the scale of 6500-10500 w.e.f. the date they were promoted to the pay scale of 6500-10500 for the purpose of MACP scheme.

Sub: Revision of rates of stipend to apprentices and trainees on Railways.

Ref: Railway Board’s letter No.PC-V/97/1/7/18 dated 28.5.98….

Consequent upon the promulgation of Railway Services ( Revised Pay) Rules,2008 on the basis of the recommendations of the Sixth Central Pay Commission, the issue of revision in the rates of stipend to apprentices and trainees (non-gazetted) on Railways was under consideration. Now, the President is pleased to revise the rates of stipend to the apprentices and trainees as per the schedule attached herein.2. It is likely that some of the existing categories of apprentices on certain Railways may not have designations identical to what appears in the enclosed Schedule. In such cases, the Railway administration, in consultation with FA&CAO should identify the designation/category of the apprentice concerned with similar case appearing in the Schedule and determine the rate of stipend applicable thereto. Wherever such identification is not possible, specific cases may be reported to the Board with verbatim comments of the FA&CAO.

185

3. In case, the period of training as indicated in these orders is at variance with the actual practice in respect of one or more categories, the matter should be referred to the Railway Board for decision.4. The apprentices and trainees will draw the revised rates of Dearness Allowance appropriate to the revised rates of stipend.5. The revised rates of stipend will take effect from 1.9.2008.6. This issues with the concurrence of the Finance Directorate of the Ministry of Railways.SCHEDULES.No.PC-VI/61 RBE No.198/2008No.PC-V/2008/PS/1(Stipend) dated 15-12-2008

With reference to Board’s letter dated 1.12.08 quoted above, a doubt has been raised by one of the Railways in regard to the entitlement of Railway employees for Ordinary Taxi while on tour. The matter has been examined in Board’s office and it is clarified that though there is no specific mention about entitlement of Railway servants to undertake journey by Ordinary Taxi in column [i] of the Table in Para-D of the Annexure to Board’s above quoted letter dated 1.12.2008, it is implicit in the provisions of the aforesaid para that the Railway servants who are covered under category [i], [ii] & [iii] of para D, are entitled to claim Mileage Allowance for Ordinary Taxi when the journey is actually performed by Ordinary Taxi.

Sub: Grant of Children Education Allowance & Hostel Subsidy to Railway Employees – clarifications reg.

*** Please refer to Railway Board’s letter of even number dated 01.10.2008 followed by Board’s

letter of even no. dated 19.12.2008 containing revised policy instructions/clarification on Children Education Allowance and Hostel Subsidy admissible to Railway servants based on the recommendations of Sixth Central Pay Commission.

2. However, certain doubts had been raised still further by some Railways on the aforesaid policy, which are clarified as under:

S.No. Point of doubt/Clarifications Comments1 Whether the expenditure incurred on

purchase of books, uniform, shoes etc. prior to 01.09.2008 during the academic year 2008-09 is reimbursable under the Scheme and, if so, upto what extent?

The revised orders on Children Education Allowance are effective from 01.09.2008. In the revised orders reimbursement is admissible for expenditure on purchase of books, uniform, school shoes and certain other fee heads which was not available under the previous instructions. Expenditure incurred prior to 01.09.2008 has to be covered as per the previous instructions. As such it is not feasible to reimburse expenditure on books, uniform, shoes etc. purchased prior to 01.09.2008.

202

S.No. Point of doubt/Clarifications Comments2 Whether the full amount of Rs.12000/-

of Children Education Allowance can be reimbursed at the beginning of the academic year since expenditure on purchase of books, uniform, shoes and certain fee elements like admission fee, science fee etc. is made at the start of scholastic session?

The new scheme provides reimbursement of children education allowance upto a maximum of Rs.12,000/- per annum per child. It further prescribes that reimbursement can be claimed once every quarter and the amount claimed in a quarter could be more than Rs.3000/- and another quarter less than Rs.3000/- subject to overall ceiling of Rs. 12,000/- per child p.a. being maintained. This logically implies that starting from academic year 2009-10 entire Rs.12,000/- can be claimed in one quarter with ‘nil’ reimbursements in other three quarters.

3. In case of employees appointed to service after 01.09.2008, whether the allowance is admissible from date of joining on pro-rata basis or full reimbursement can be claimed?

It is clarified in the revised instructions that Children Education Allowance is not admissible for the period of service treated as dies-non i.e. no service no allowance. It is further clarified that Children Education Allowance may be calculated on pro-rata basis @ maximum Rs.1000/- per month per child. As such employees who have joined service after 01.09.2008 would be entitled to Allowance on pro-rata basis i.e. maximum Rs.1000/- for each completed month per child.

4. Whether reimbursement can be claimed for expenses on Tuition classes in recognized Coaching Centres.

The Children Education Allowance is meant for the reimbursement of expenses incurred on studies/ education of a child in a school. Hence expenses on coaching classes in a Tuition /Coaching Centre would not be admissible.

Ration Money Allowance is not exempted from the purview of Income Tax and hence this Allowance is to be treated as income for the purpose of computation and Income Tax deducted at source. The other terms and conditions as stipulated in para 3(a) & (b) of Board’s letter Noo.E(P&A)I-98/ALL/RPF/1 dated 01.04.1998 shall remain unchanged.

****The undersigned is directed to refer to this Department’s O.M. No.2/29/91-Estt. (Pay II) dated 5′”

January, 1994 as amended/revised from time to time. A need has been felt to consolidate all these orders in one place and accordingly, it has been decided, in consultation with Department of Expenditure, to bring out a self contained O.M. in supersession of OM dated 5.1.94 and subsequent amendments on the subject, incorporating the provisions of earlier orders with suitable modifications, wherever necessary.

2. Application

2.1 These orders will apply to all Central Government employees, who are regularly appointed on deputation/foreign service in accordance with Recruitment Rules of the ex-cadre posts, under the same or some other Departments of Central Government or under the State Governments/ Union Territories Administration/ Local Bodies or under Central/ State PSUs/Autonomous Bodies etc. set up or controlled by Central/State Governments provided the foreign service under such PSUs/autonomous bodies has been permitted in relaxation of appointment on immediate absorption basis. These orders will also cover the cases of regular appointment on deputation/foreign service of employees of State Government/local bodies etc. as well as PSUs/Autonomous Bodies of Central/ State Governments as per recruitment rules in the Central Government.

2.2 However, the following cases shall not be covered under these orders for whom separate orders exist:

(a) Members of the All India Services and those deputed to posts, whose terms are regulated under specific statutory rules or orders;

(b) Officers appointed on deputation to posts under the Central Staffing Scheme (CSS) for whom separate orders as issued from time to time will continue to apply;

(c) Deputation to posts operated outside India;

(d) Appointments of a specific category of employees to a specified class of posts, such as appointments made in the Personal Staff of Ministers etc., in respect of which special orders are already in existence. However, the terms and conditions set out in this O.M. will apply to those cases to the extent these are not specifically covered under such special orders.

(e) Appointments of the nature of deemed deputation or transfers to ex-cadre posts made in exigencies of service with the specific condition that no deputation (duty) allowance will be admissible – e.g. (i) interim arrangements in the event of conversion of a Government office/organisation or a portion thereof into a PSU/ autonomous body or vice-versa; and (ii) appointments to the same post in another cadre.

235

3. Scope of Term ‘deputation/ foreign service’ – Restrictions on treating an appointment as on deputation/ foreign service.

3.1 The terms deputation/foreign service will cover only those appointments that are made by transfer on a temporary basis provided the transfer is outside the normal field of deployment and is in public interest. The question whether the transfer is outside the normal field of deployment or not will be decided by the authority which controls the service or post from which the employee is transferred.

3.2 The following types of appointments will not be treated as deputation/foreign service for the purposes of these orders:(a) appointment of serving employees made either by promotion or by direct recruitment from amongst open market candidates whether on permanent or temporary basis.

(b) permanent appointment made by transfer.

(c)Temporary appointment made on the basis of personal requests of employees.

(d) Arrangements necessitated by staff imbalances arising on re-organisation of offices on the same or different stations, subject to the specific condition that no deputation (duty) allowance will be admissible in such cases.

3.3 A person in a higher Grade Pay/scale of pay shall not be appointed on deputation to a post in lower Grade Pay/scale of pay if the deputation is from Central Government to Central Government and also in cases where the scale of pay and dearness allowance in the parent cadre post and ex-cadre post are similar.

3.4 However, no appointment on deputation/foreign service shall be made from/to Central Government/ an organisation where the pay scale and DA in the parent cadre post and ex-cadre post are dissimilar, if the basic pay in the parent cadre increased by one increment plus dearness allowance(s) including interim relief if any, admissible to a person in the parent cadre post exceeds the basic pay plus dearness allowance (s) including interim relief, if any, at the maximum of the pay scale of the ex-cadre post. In the revised pay structure, the maximum of the scale would mean the sum of the Grade Pay of the ex-cadre post and maximum of the Pay Band PB 4 i.e. 67000. For example, if the ex-cadre post is in the Grade Pay of 4200, then the maximum would be 71200 i.e. 4200 plus 67000 (maximum of PB 4).

4. Exercise of option

4.1 An employee appointed on deputation/foreign service, may elect to draw either the pay in the scale of pay of deputation/foreign service post or his/her basic pay in the parent cadre plus deputation (duty) allowance thereon plus personal pay, if any. However, in case of Government employees on deputation/ foreign service to CPSEs, this option will not be allowed and their pay will be governed in terms of the orders issued by Department of Public Enterprises vide OM dated 26.11.2008 and clarifications issued thereafter.

4.2 The borrowing authority shall obtain the option of the employee within one month from the date of joining the ex-cadre post unless the employee has himself furnished the option.

4.3 The option once exercised shall be final.

4.4 However, the employee may revise the option under the following circumstances which will be effective from the date of occurrence of the same:

(a) When he/she receives proforma promotion or is appointed to non-functional selection grade or up-gradation of scale in the parent cadre;

(b) When he/she is reverted to a lower grade in the parent cadre;

236

(c) When the scale of pay of the parent post on the basis of which his emoluments are regulated during deputation/foreign service or of the ex-cadre post held by the employee on deputation/foreign service is revised either prospectively or from a retrospective date.

(d) Based on the revised/same option of the employee, in the event of proforma promotion/appointment to non-functional Selection Grade/revision/upgradation of scales of pay in the parent cadre, his/her pay will be re-fixed with reference to the revised entitlement of pay in the parent cadre. However, if the initial option was for the pay scale of the deputation post and no change in option already exercised is envisaged, the pay already drawn in deputation post will be protected if the pay re-fixed is less.

Note: Revision in the rates of DA, HRA or any other allowance either in the parent or borrowing organisation shall not be an occasion for revision of the earlier option.

4.5. If the pay of an employee in his cadre post undergoes downward revision, the pay in the ex-cadre post is also liable to be re-fixed on the basis of revised pay and in accordance with the revised option or existing option if the employee does not revise his option.

5. Pay fixation

5.1 When an employee on deputation/Foreign Service elects to draw pay in the scale of pay attached to the ex-cadre post, his/ her pay may be fixed as under:

(i) Deputation from Central Government to Central Government

If the scale of pay/Grade Pay of the ex-cadre post is higher, the pay may be fixed after adding one increment to the existing pay in the Pay Band of the parent cadre post. The grade pay corresponding to the ex-cadre post would thereafter be granted in addition to this pay in the pay band. However, in cases where the fixation of pay in the ex-cadre post involves change of Pay Band also, if the pay in the pay band after adding the increment is less than the minimum of the pay band corresponding to the grade pay of the ex-cadre post, the pay in the pay band will be fixed at the minimum of the Pay Band.

In case the Grade Pay/scale of employee’s cadre post and the ex-cadre post are identical, the employee would continue to draw his/her existing basic pay.

In case the Grade pay of the ex-cadre post is upto 10000, the Basic Pay, from time to time after pay fixation should not exceed the maximum of the pay band PB-4( .67000) plus the grade pay of the post held on deputation. In case the ex-cadre post is in the HAG or HAG+ pay scale, the Basic Pay, from time to time after pay fixation should not exceed 79000 or 80000 respectively.

(ii) In foreign service/ Reverse Foreign Service(a) when the pay scale of the post in the parent cadre and that attached to ex-cadre post are based on the same index level and the DA pattern is also same, the pay may be fixed as under (i) above.(b) If the appointment is made to a post whose pay structure and/ or DA pattern is dissimilar to that in the parent organisation, pay may be fixed by adding one increment to the pay in the parent cadre post in the scale of his regular parent post ( and if he/she was drawing pay at the maximum of the scale, by the increment last drawn) and equating the pay so raised plus dearness allowance (and additional or ad-hoc dearness allowance, Interim relief etc., if any) with emoluments comprising of pay plus DA, ADA, Interim relief etc., if any, admissible, in the borrowing organisation and the pay may be fixed at the stage in the pay scale of the ex-cadre post at which total emoluments admissible in the ex-cadre post as above equal the emoluments drawn in the cadre.

5.2 In cases of appointment from one ex-cadre post to another ex-cadre post where the employee opts to draw pay in the scale of the ex-cadre post, the pay in the second or subsequent ex-cadre post should be fixed under the normal rules with reference to the pay in the cadre post only. However, in respect of appointments to ex-cadre posts carrying Grade Pay identical to that of the ex-cadre post(s) held on an earlier occasion(s), it may be ensured that the pay drawn in subsequent appointment should not be less than the pay drawn earlier.

237

5.3 In cases of appointments to a second or subsequent ex-cadre post(s) in a higher pay scale/grade pay than that of the previous ex cadre post, the pay may be fixed with reference to the pay drawn in the cadre post and if the pay so fixed happens to be less than the pay drawn in the previous ex-cadre post, the difference may be allowed as personal pay to be absorbed in future increases in pay. This is subject to the condition that on both the occasions, the employee should have opted to draw pay in the scales of pay/Grade Pay attached to the ex-cadre posts.

Note-1: The term parent post and basic pay means the post held on regular basis in the parent organisation and pay drawn/ admissible in such a post respectively.

Note-2: An officer who may be holding a higher post on adhoc basis in the cadre at the time of proceeding on deputation/ foreign service would be considered to have vacated the post held on adhoc basis and proceeded on deputation/ foreign service from his/her regular post. During the period of deputation/ foreign service, he/she shall earn notional increments in the parent cadre post. On reversion, if he/she is re-appointed to the higher post on regular or adhoc basis his pay will get fixed with reference to the pay admissible in the lower post on the date of such re-appointment. In such cases, if his pay gets fixed at a stage lower than that of his junior(s) who continued to serve in the cadre, no stepping up will be admissible as per extant rules in so far as Central Government employees are concerned. However, if the pay so fixed is less than the pay drawn earlier while holding the post on ad-hoc basis the pay earlier drawn will be protected. Therefore, those Central Government employees who are already holding a higher post on ad-hoc basis or expecting it shortly in the parent cadre may weigh all relevant considerations before opting for deputation/foreign service. This note of caution will be applicable to employees of other organisations wishing to apply for posts on deputation in Central Government, if governed by similar rules in parent organisation.

Note-3: Pay of an officer appointed on deputation/foreign service on adhoc basis pending selection of a regular incumbent may also be regulated in accordance with provisions of Para 5.1 & 6.1 of this O.M.

Note-4: The provisions of this Para as well as Para 6 will not apply to appointments on Personal Staff of Ministers. Such appointments will be regulated by separate specific orders issued by the Government in that behalf.

6. Deputation (duty) Allowance

6.1 The deputation (duty) allowance admissible shall be at the following rates:

(a) In case of deputation within the same station, the allowance will be paid at the rate of 5% of basic pay subject to a maximum of 2000 p.m.; and

(b) In other cases, Deputation (Duty) Allowance will be payable at the rate of 10% of the employee’s basic pay subject to a maximum of 4000/- p.m.

(c) The deputation (duty) allowance as above shall further be restricted as under:

Basic Pay, from time to time, plus Deputation (Duty) Allowance shall not exceed the maximum of the pay band PB-4 ( 67000) plus the grade pay of the post held on deputation in case the Grade Pay of the post held on deputation is upto 10000. In case the post held on deputation is in the HAG or HAG+ pay scales, the Basic Pay, from time to time, plus Deputation (Duty) Allowance should not exceed 79000 and 80000 respectively.

Note: Basic Pay in the revised pay structure means the pay drawn in the prescribed pay band plus the applicable grade pay but does not include any other type of pay like special pay/allowance etc.

The rates of deputation (duty) allowance as above shall take effect from 1.9.2008.

Note: 1 The term ‘same station’ for the purpose will be determined with reference to the station where the person was on duty before proceeding on deputation.

238

Note: 2 Where there is no change in the headquarters with reference to the last post held, the transfer should be treated as within the same station and when there is change in headquarters it would be treated as not in the same station. So far as places falling within the same urban agglomeration of the old headquarters are concerned, they would be treated as transfer within the same station.

6.2 Special rates of deputation (duty) allowance may be admissible under separate orders in any particular area on account of the condition of living there being particularly arduous or unattractive. Where special rate is more favourable than that given in Para 6.1 above, employees deputed to the area will be given the benefit of the special rate.

6.3.1 If an employee with the permission of the competent authority, proceeds on deputation/foreign service from one ex-cadre post to another ex-cadre post in the same or another organisation without reverting to his parent cadre, and if the second ex-cadre post is at the same station as the first one, the rate of deputation (duty) allowance would remain unchanged.

6.3.2 In cases where a person on deputation/foreign service is transferred by the borrowing authority from one station to another without any change in the post held by him, the rate of deputation (duty) allowance will be refixed as per 6.1 (b).

7. Admissibility of pay, allowances & benefits while on deputation/foreign service

7.1 Any project allowance admissible in a project area in the borrowing organisation may be drawn in addition to deputation (duty) allowance.

7.2 Any special allowance granted to an employee in the parent Department under FR 9(25) or a corresponding. rule of parent organisation should not be allowed in addition to deputation (duty) allowance. However, the borrowing department may allow in addition to deputation (duty) allowance, under special circumstances, any special allowance attached to the post held by the employee in his/her parent Department, by suitably restricting the deputation (duty) allowance. This will require the specific and prior approval of Department of Personnel & Training.

7.3 In case special allowance is attached to the scale of pay of the ex-cadre post and the employee has opted to draw pay in that scale, then, in addition to the pay in that scale, he will also be entitled to draw such special allowance. However, such special allowance will not be admissible if he has opted to draw pay in the parent cadre scale/grade pay plus deputation (duty) allowance.

7.4 Personal pay, if any, drawn by an employee in his parent department will continue to be admissible on deputation/foreign service if he/she opts to draw pay in the parent cadre scale/grade pay plus deputation (duty) allowance. No deputation (duty) allowance on this personal pay will however, be admissible.

7.5 Increments – The employee will draw increment in the parent cadre grade or in the scale of pay /grade pay attached to the deputation post as the case may be, depending on whether he has opted for the parent cadre pay plus deputation (duty) allowance or the pay scale /grade pay of the deputation post. If he has opted for pay scale/grade pay of the deputation post, notional increments shall also continue to accrue to him in the post held on regular basis in the parent cadre/ organisation for the purpose of regulation of pay on repatriation to the parent post at the end of the tenure.

7.6 Admissibility of allowances and benefits while on deputation/ foreign service.

(a) Such allowances as are not admissible to regular employees of corresponding status in the borrowing organisation shall not be admissible to the officer on deputation/foreign service, even if they were admissible in the parent organisation.

The employee should apply for further leave to his Cadre Controlling Authority.

7.7 Leave salary/Pension/NPS Contribution.(i) As at present, allocation of leave salary and pension contribution between different Ministries/Departments of Central Government and between Central and State Government has been dispensed with. In such cases of deputation from Central Government to State Government and vice-versa, liability for bearing leave salary vests with the Department from which the officer proceeds on leave or which sanctioned leave and no contributions are payable to the lending organisation. Liability for pension/ employee’s contribution to CPF will be borne by the parent department, to which the officer permanently belongs at the time of retirement and no proportionate contribution will be recovered.

Sub:Interest bearing advances /Sixth Central Pay Commission recommendation on House Building Advance-enhancement in past cases-regarding.

****

The undersigned is directed to invite attention to this Ministry's O.M.No.I-17011/11(4)/2008-H.III dated 27th November, 2008 on the above subject and to say that it has been decided in consultation with Ministry of Finance to make the afore-said orders applicable with effect from 1st January, 2006. Accordingly, an enhancement of House Building Advance, if applied for, may be granted for an amount equivalent to the difference between the previously sanctioned amount and the new amount determined on the basis of pay in the pay band, in past cases, where HBA was sanctioned on or after 1-1-2006 but before 27-11-2008 subject to complying following conditions:-

(a) The Government servant should not have drawn the entire amount of HBA sanctioned under earlier orders and /or where construction is not completed/full cost towards acquisition of house/flat is yet to be paid.

(b) There will be no deviation from the approved plan of construction on the basis of which the original sanction of House Building Advance was accorded. The revised cost of the original plan can, however, be considered for determining the additional amount, subject to the prescribed maximum limits.

(c) Supplementary Mortgage Deed, Personal Bond and Sureties will be drawn and executed at the expense of the loanee.

(d) The actual entitlement will be restricted to the repaying capacity computed on the basis of the formula laid down in this Ministry's O.M. No.I-17015/16/92-H.III. dated 17.10.2000. It should be ensured that the entire amount of advance with interest is recovered before retirement of the Government servant.

(e) Rate of Interest: The rate of interest chargeable in such cases would be as per the slab applicable to the total sanctioned amount i.e. amount already sanctioned on or after 1-1-2006 but before 27.11.2008 plus the enhanced sanction. However, the new rate of interest would be chargeable only on collective amount that would remain outstanding on grant of enhancement of HBA i.e. the unpaid portion of previously sanctioned HBA plus the enhancement so granted. Thus, the amount of HBA that has already been re-paid on old rates will not attract the fresh interest charges.

2. However, the existing limit of maximum admissible amount of 7.50 lakh for the purpose of construction/purchase of new house/flat and 1.80 lakh would remain unchanged. In other words, the sum total of previously sanctioned HBA and the enhancement granted under these orders cannot exceed the aforesaid limits. In any case, not more than one enhancement is admissible to a Govt. employee.

3. The applications for enhanced HBA should be submitted within six months from the date of issue of this order.

4. Ministries/Departments whose branch offices are situated in the far flung areas like in case of Ministry of Defence, etc., are advised to give wider publicity to these orders through modern communication mean like facimile e-mail, web-sites etc. so that there is no occasion for any representation for extending the time limit of six months on the grounds of receiving these orders late.

The doubts raised are clarified as under:- (i). Whether CEA is admissible to a Government Servant who ceases to be in service due to retirement, discharge, dismissal or removal from service in the course of an academic year ?

CEA/hostel subsidy shall be admissible till the end of the academic year in which the Government servant ceased to be in service due to retirement, discharge, dismissal or removal from service in the course of an academic year.The payment shall be made by the office in which the Govt. servant worked prior to these events and will be regulated by the other conditions laid down under CEA scheme.

(ii).Whether Children of a Government servant who dies while in service are still eligible for reimbursement under the new CEA scheme?

If a Government servant dies while in service, the Children Education Allowance or hostel subsidy shall be admissible in respect of his/her children subject to observance of other conditions for its grant provided the wife/husband of the deceased is not employed in service of the Central Govt., State Government, Autonomous Body, PSU, Semi-Government Organization such as Municipality, Post Trust Authority or any other organization partly or fully funded by the Central Govt /State Governments. In such cases the CEA/Hostel Subsidy shall be payable to the children till such time the employee would have actually received the same, subject to the condition that other terms and conditions are

247

fulfilled. The payment shall be made by the office in which the Govt. servant was working prior to his death and will be regulated by the other condition laid down under CEA Scheme.

iii) Whether any upper age limit of the children has been prescribed for claming CEA? Whether CEA can be allowed in case of children studying through “Correspondence or Distance Learning”? If so the age limit prescribed for the same.

The upper age limit for disabled children has been set at the age of 22 years. In the case of other children the age limit will now be 20 years or till the time of passing 12th class, which ever is earlier. Cases where reimbursement have been already made, in respect of children above this age may not be reopened. It has also been decided that CEA may henceforth be allowed in case of children studying through “Correspondence or Distance Learning” subject to other conditions prescribed

iv) What is the definition of the terms ‘two sets of uniform’ which occur in para1(e) of our O.M. dated 2.9.08. What is the definition of ‘one set of shoes’?

It is clarified that ‘one set of shoes’ would mean one pair of shoes and ‘two sets of uniform’ would mean two sets of uniform prescribed by the school in which the child is studying. A set of uniform will include all items of clothing prescribed for a day, as uniform by the school. Reimbursement may be allowed for two sets of such uniform irrespective of the colours/winter/ summer/ PT uniform.

(v) What is the definition of ‘station’ for the purpose of hostel subsidy?

It is clarified that for the purpose of hostel subsidy, station would be demarcated by the first three digits of the PIN Code of the area where the Government Servant is posted and/or residing’. The first three digits of the PIN Code indicate a Revenue District.

(vi) Whether fee paid to organizations/ institutions other than the school or fee paid to private tutors for purposes mentioned in para 1(e) of the OM dated 2.9.2008 is reimbursable?

No. It is clarified that the term ‘fee’ contained in the para 1(e) of the OM dated 2.9.2008 would mean the fee charged by the school directly from the student.

(i) When transferee/retiree submits self declaration that transportation of personal effects has been made by own arrangement and facility of Kit Pass/VPU/Goods Train/Container has not been availed of, production of documentary evidence of such transportation of personal effects by own arrangement need not be insisted upon, subject to fulfillment of other conditions. Proof of journey/change of residence will however continue to be required. In the cases where Kit Pass has been availed by the railway employee for transportation of personal effects, extant provisions under the rules would continue to be applicable to regulate quantum of Composite Transfer Grant.

(ii) For short distance transfers/settlement after retirement within the same station or to an outstation within 20 Kms., where transportation of personal effects is generally carried out by road, CTG may be granted at prescribed rates, i.e. 1/3 rd of Basic Pay on production of documentary proof of change of residence, as a result of transfer/retirement, subject to fulfillment of other conditions.

The leave application together with the sanction memorandum, if any, issued should be forwarded to the SR& Leave section for making necessary entries. The applicants should submit their leave applications together with documentary proof of age of the child. The applications may be got verified from the concerned Pass declaration submitted by the employees before leave is sanctioned.

2. Leave cannot be claimed as of right and leave of any kind may be refused or revoked by the authority competent to grant such leave. The leave sanctioning authority should draw a phased programme for the grant of leave to the applicants by turns with due regard to the priority of claims to leave at the same time ensuring adequate presence of staff for the day-to-day working so that no dislocation in the normal working of establishment is caused particularly in respect of essential categories.

3. In case where all applications for leave cannot, in the interest of the public service, be granted, an authority competent to grant should, in deciding which applications should be granted, take into the account the following considerations-

259

a. The railway servants who can, for the time being best be spared b. The amount of leave due to the various applicants.

c. The amount and character of the service rendered by each applicant since she last returned from leave. d. The fact that any such applicant was compulsorily recalled from his/her last leave. e. The fact that any such applicant has been refused leave in the public interest.

( Authority Rule 512 of IREC Vol.I)5. Where the leave is sanctioned at a stretch of two years the work is to be distributed among

the existing staff without resorting to adhoc promotions or payment of dual charge allowance. Further, the workload of such of those women employees who are granted leave shall not be outsourced under any circumstances. Creation of additional posts to cope with the day to day work is also not permitted. However, adjustments may be made in the cadre with existing staff with a view to avoiding dislocation of day-to-day work.

5. Where CCL granted is in excess of 30 days a sanction memorandum should invariably be issued duly indicating the following points :

[a] Women employees granted CCL more than 30 days will not be eligible for Transport Allowance. When such period of absence falls into two different calendar months (including prefixing and suffixing holidays), reduction in Transport Allowance is to be adjusted on pro-rata basis.

[b] If the employee is in occupation of railway accommodation, she may be advised that retention of railway quarters while on leave is permissible only for period not exceeding 120 days on payment of normal rent , provided the authority sanctioning the leave certifies that the employee concerned is likely to be posted back to old station on expiry of the leave.

6. Where CCL is allowed for the third year as leave not due (without production of medical certificate) the period of one year in excess of CCL, will not qualify for grant of increment and pensionary benefits.

Please refer to Board’s letter of even number dated 23.10.2008 wherein Child Care Leave for a period of two years was introduced for female Railway servants. As regards procedure for grant of Child Care Leave ( CCL), the following clarifications are issued:-

i) CCL cannot be demanded as a matter of right. Under no circumstances can any employee proceed on CCL without prior proper approval of the leave by the leave sanctioning authority.

ii) The leave is to be treated like the Earned leave and sanctioned as such.

iii) Consequently, Saturdays, Sundays, Gazetted holidays etc. falling during the period of leave would also count for CCL, as in the case of Earned leave.

iv) CCL can be availed only if the employee concerned has no Earned Leave at her credit.

v) CCL sanctioned prior to 18.11.2008 shall be treated as CCL and shall be deducted from the Child Care Leave account of the Railway employee concerned. No adjustment against any other kind of leave shall be made in this regard. The Child Care Leave sanctioned for the period beyond 18.11.2008 shall be regulated as in terms of para (iv) above.

….It has been brought to the notice of the Board that in response to Board’s letter of even

number dt. 29.10.2008, a large number of applications are being received from the Railway servants for sanction of LAP for the purpose of availing of the benefit of encashment of LAP for 10 days. Acceding to the requests of such a large number of Railway servants for sanction of LAP all together is fraught with the possibility of serious disruption to train operations, which is not in the interest of the nation. Considering the gravity of the situation, it has been decided by the Ministry of Railways that the Railway servants who are directly engaged in running of trains viz. all the running staff including Drivers, Assistant Drivers, Motormen, Shunters, Guards etc. and Station Masters/ Assistant Station Masters should be exempted from the requirement of availing of passes and equal duration of LAP for availing the benefit of encashment of 10 days of LAP. Zonal Railways are, therefore, requested to sanction encashment of LAP upto 10 days to the categories of the Railway servants mentioned above on receipt of requests from them in this regard without insisting on them to avail Railway Passes and apply for LAP of equal duration.

Sub:System improvement for verification and maintenance of Leave Accounts

Ref: This office letter of even number dated 04.12.09…

Instructions of Railway Board have been circulated from time to time reiterating the need for proper maintenance, verification and timely updating of the leave records. Despite this, preventive checks conducted by Vigilance Branch have revealed the following irregularities in maintenance of leave accounts resulting in overpayment :

[i] Leave accounts are not being updated.[ii] While crediting/debiting of leave accounts and carrying forward the balances from one page

to another, either excess or less are shown.[iii] While affording half yearly credit of LAP or LHAP, reduction of leave on account of EOL or

periods of absence or suspension treated as dies non in the previous half year period is not made.

[iv] Certification of check by competent authority is not recorded. [v] Test checks of leave records are not effectively conducted by Accounts Inspection teams

periodically to improve the system as per extant instructions.

2. Therefore, the following instructions should be adhered to strictly:

2.1 In field units where leave records are maintained in the unit itself, the leave application should be put up to the Sr. Supervisor / officer who is competent to sanction the leave alongwith the leave record duly posted, who after sanctioning the leave should also initial the leave record in token of having sanctioned the leave.

2.2 In respect of other field units, where the leave records are maintained centrally in the divisional offices, the following procedure should be followed :

In the field offices the supervisors who are competent to sanction leave, should maintain a register called Leave Register. This register should be page-numbered and each employee working under him should be allotted a few pages. The registers should have columns similar to the leave record format. The credit balance of LAP and LHAP as on 1.1.1997 should be entered in this register. Thereafter, whenever any staff working under the senior supervisor / officer applies for leave, the details of the leave asked for should be entered in the register. The leave applied for should thereafter be deducted from the opening balance and the resultant balance shown in the relevant columns. The leave application, along with the register, should be put up to the senior supervisor/officer and they should sanction the leave only after signing the said register and making an entry in the leave application to that effect, indicating the serial number and the page number of the register.

3. Para 2.3 of Board’s letter circulated under Serial Circular No. 16/97 further stipulates that Branch Officers /Personnel Officers, Supervisors and Staff and Welfare Inspectors [S&WIs] should conduct frequent checks including surprise checks to ensure that the leave record maintenance is not

275

lagging behind and is maintained up-to-date. Accounts inspections should be conducted as per extant instructions and leave records checked with the salary bills to ensure that there is no discrepancy between the absentee statement and postings in the leave records /registers.4. Further, Board under their letter dated 24.04.03 [CPO/SC’s SC No. 90/2003] enumerated the steps to be taken to ensure effective implementation of the instructions by way of computerisation of leave records and reflection of leave balance in the salary slips.

5. In order to see that the leave accounts of the employees are maintained properly checks by officers of Personnel and Accounts Departments as well as Executive officers should be intensified. Staff & Welfare Inspectors and Accounts Inspection teams should be entrusted with the duty of checking of leave accounts /attendance registers during their inspections. Wherever necessary, staff should be educated on the correct procedures of maintenance of leave accounts.

6. The above instructions should be scrupulously followed and strict action be taken against those staff who fail to maintain the leave accounts properly.

7. This supersedes the instructions issued under this office letter of even number dated 02.12.09.

This issues with the approval of the competent authority. ****

Sub: Entitlement of Pass facilities under MACPS-Clarification reg.Ref: Board’s letter of even number dated 10.06.2009

…The issue regarding the entitlement of privilege and other passes in case of employees who

have been granted financial upgradation under the MACP Scheme has been under consideration.

2. In terms of Para 16 of Annexure of Board’s letter referred to above, financial upgradation under MACP Scheme is personal to the incumbent and entitles the employee to certain benefits which are linked to the pay drawn by the employee. Hence, the benefit of Passes/PTOs corresponding to the next higher Grade Pay granted under MACP Scheme will be available to the employee. It is also reiterated that the grant of financial upgradation under the MACP Scheme does not entail any change in the designation, classification and status of an employee. Accordingly, the benefits related to higher status inherent in the higher Pay Band and/or Grade Pay is not available to such an employee who has been granted higher Grade Pay under the MACP Scheme.

Sub: Child Care Leave to female railway employees- Clarification regardingRef: This office letter of even number dated 04.10.2010.

… Subsequent to issue of the instructions contained in Board’s above referred letter regarding Child Care

Leave [CCL], the following clarifications are issued in pursuance to the clarifications issued by the Department of Personnel & Training vide their OM No. 13018/1/2010-Estt.[Leave] dated 30.12.2010:

S.No. Point Clarification1. Whether Leave Average Pay availed for any

purpose can be converted into Child Care Leave? How should applications where the purpose of availing leave has been indicated as 'Urgent Work' but the applicant claims to have utilized the leave for taking care of the needs of the child, be treated?

Child Care Leave is sanctioned to women employees having minor children, for rearing or for looking after their needs like examination, sickness etc. Hence Leave Average Pay -availed specifically for this purpose only should be converted.

2 Whether all Leave on Average Pay availed irrespective of number of days i.e. less than 15 days, and number of spells can be converted? In cases where the CCL spills over to the next year (for example 30 days CCL from 27th December), whether the Leave should be treated as one spell or two spells?

No. As the instructions contained in this office letter dated 04.10.2010 ibid have been given retrospective effect, all the conditions specified therein would have to be fulfilled for conversion of the Leave on Average Pay into Child Care Leave. In cases where the leave spills over to the next year, it may be treated as one spell against the year in which the leave commences.

3 Whether those who have availed Child Care Leave for more than 3 spells with less than 15 days can avail further Child Care Leave for the remaining period of the current year?

No. As per the instructions contained in this office letter dated 04.10.2010 ibid, Child Care Leave may not be granted in more than 3 spells. Hence CCL may not be allowed for more than 3 times irrespective of the number of days or times Child Care Leave has been availed earlier. Past cases may not be reopened.

4 Whether Encashment of Leave admissible in terms of Rule 540-A Indian Railway Establishment Code I, Volume, 1985 Edition can be availed during Child Care Leave?

The benefit of encashment of Leave on Average Pay admissible in terms of Rule 540-A Indian Railway Establishment Code, Volume I, 1985 Edition cannot be availed during Child Care Leave as Child Care Leave is granted for the specific purpose of taking care of a minor child for rearing or for looking after any other needs of the child during examination, sickness etc.

Sub: Implementation of Government’s recommendations of 6 th Central Pay Commission – Revision of pension of pre-2006 pensioners/family pensioners etc.

*******The undersigned is directed to say that in pursuance of Government’s decision on the

recommendations of Sixth Central Pay Commission, sanction of the President is hereby accorded to the regulation, with effect from 1.1.2006, of pension / family pension of all the pre-2006 pensioners / family pensioners in the manner indicated in the succeeding paragraphs. Separate orders will be issued in respect of employees who retired / died on or after 1.1.2006.

2.1 These orders apply to all pensioners/family pensioners who were drawing pension/family pension on 1.1.2006 under the Central Civil Services [Pension] Rules, 1972, CCS [Extraordinary Pension] Rules and the corresponding rules applicable to Railway pensioners and pensioners of All India Services, including officers of the Indian Civil Services retired from service on or after 1.1.1973.

2.2 Separate orders will be issued by the Ministry of Defence in regard to Armed Forces pensioners / family pensioners.

284

2.3 These orders do not also apply to retired High Court and Supreme Court Judges and other Constitutional / Statutory Authorities whose pension etc., is governed by separate rules/ orders.

3.1 In these orders:

a. Existing pensioner or Existing Family pensioner means a pensioner who was drawing /entitled to pension/ family pension on 31.12.2005.

b. Existing pension means the basic pension inclusive or commuted portion, if any, due on 31.12.2005. It covers all classes of pension under the CCS [Pension] Rules, 1972 as also Disability Pension under the CCS [Extraordinary Pension] Rules and the corresponding rules applicable to Railway employees and Members of All India Services.

c. Existing family pension means the basic family pension drawn on 31.12.2005 under the CCS [Pension] Rules and the corresponding rules applicable to Railway employees and members of All India Services.

4.1 The pension/family pension of existing pre-2006 pensioners /family pensioners will be consolidated with effect from 1.1.2006 by adding together:

a. The existing pension/family pension.b. Dearness Pension, where applicable.c. Dearness Relief upto AICPI [IW] average index 536 [Base year 1982=100] i.e. @ 24%

of Basic Pension / Basic Family Pension plus dearness pension as admissible vide this Department’s OM No. 42/2/2006-P&PW[G] dated 5.4.2006.

d. Fitment weightage @ 40% of the existing pension /family pension.e. Where the existing pension in [i] above includes the effect of merger of 50% of

dearness relief w.e.f. 1.4.2004, the existing pension for the purpose of fitment weightage will be re-calculated after excluding the merged dearness relief of 50% from the pension. f. The amount so arrived at will be regarded as consolidated pension /family pension with effect from 1.1.2006.

4.2 The fixation of pension will be subject to the provision that the revised pension, in no case, shall be lower than fifty percent of the minimum of the pay in the pay band plus the grade pay corresponding to the pre-revised pay scale from which the pensioner had retired. In the case of HAG+ and above scales, this will be fifty percent of the minimum of the revised pay scale.

4.3 Since the consolidated pension will be inclusive of the commuted portion of pension, if any, the commuted portion will be deducted from the said amount while making monthly disbursement.

The upper ceiling on pension / family pension laid down in the Department of Pension and Pensioner’s Welfare Office Memorandum No. 45/86/97-P&PW[A] [Part-I] dated 27.10.1997 has been increased from Rs.15,000/- and Rs.9000/- to 50% and 30% respectively of the highest pay in the Government [The highest pay in the Government is Rs. 90,000 since 1.1.2006].

The quantum of pension /family pension available to the old pensioners /family pensioners shall be increased as follows:

Age of Pensioners/Family pensioner Additional quantum of pension

From 80 years to less than 85 years 20% of revised basic Pension / Family pension




100 years or more 100% of revised basic Pension / Family pensionThe amount of additional pension will be shown distinctly in the pension payment order. For example, in case where a pensioner is more than 80 years of age and his/her consolidated

285

pension in terms of para 4.1 and 4.2 above is Rs.10,000 p.m., the pension will be shown as [i] Basic Pension = Rs.10,000 and [ii] Additional Pension =Rs.2,000 p.m. The pension on his/her attaining the age of 85 years will be shown as [i] Basic pension = Rs.10,000 and [ii] Additional Pension =Rs.3,000 p.m. Some of the existing pensioners who retired between 31.3.1985 and 31.12.1985 are in receipt of personal pension. The said personal pension will continue to be granted as separate element and will not be merged into the pension as consolidated above. Since the consolidated pension/family pension arrived as per paragraph 4.1 includes dearness relief upto average index level 536 [Base Year 1982=100], dearness relief will be admissible thereon only beyond index average 536 [Base Year 1982=100] in accordance with the revised scheme of dearness relief for which orders are being issued separately. The four instalments of dearness relief sanctioned earlier from 1.7.2006, 1.1.2007, 1.7.2007 and 1.1.2008 in this Department’s Office Memorandum No. 42/2/2006-P&PW[G] dated 15.9.2006, Office Memorandum No. 42/2/2006-P&PW[G] dated 23.3.2007, Office Memorandum No. 42/2/2006-P&PW[G] dated 19.3.2008 respectively shall be adjusted against revised Dearness Relief becoming due on the consolidated pension /family pension. 5.1.1 Where the consolidated pension / family pension in terms of paragraph 4 above works out to an amount less than Rs.3500/- the same shall be stepped upto Rs. 3500/-. This will be regarded as pension / family pension with effect from 1.1.2006. In the case of pensioners who are in receipt of more than one pension, the floor ceiling of Rs.3500/- will apply to the total of all pensions taken together. 5.1.2 Where the disability pension under the CCS[EOP] Rules is drawn in addition to invalid pension under the CCS[Pension] Rules, 1972, the minimum limit of Rs.3500/- will apply to total of two pensions as indicated in paragraph 5.1. Where the disability pension is drawn in isolation, the minimum limit of Rs.3500/- will apply for 100% disability. For lesser degree of disability the minimum limit will be proportionately less. 6. The employed/re-employed pensioners/family pensioners are not getting dearness relief on pension at present under the extant orders. In their case of notional dearness relief which would have been admissible to them but for their employment / re-employment will be taken into account for consolidation of their pension in terms of paragraph 4.1 above as if they were drawing the dearness relief. Their pay will be re-fixed w.e.f. 1.1.2006 with reference to consolidated pension becoming admissible to them. Dearness relief beyond 1.1.2006 will, however, not be admissible to them during the period of employment / re-employment. 7. The cases of Central Government employees who have been permanently absorbed in public sector undertakings /autonomous bodies will be regulated as follows:a. Pension:Where the Government servants on permanent absorption in public sector undertakings/ autonomous bodies continue to draw pension separately from the Government, the pension of such absorbees will be updated in terms of these orders. In cases where the Government servants have drawn one time lump sum terminal benefits equal to 100% of their pensions and have become entitled to the restoration of one-third commuted portion of pension as per Supreme Court Judgement dated 15.12.1995, their cases will not be covered by these orders. b. Family Pension:In cases where on permanent absorption in public sector undertakings/autonomous bodies, the terms of absorption permit grant of family pension under the CCS[Pension] Rules, 1972 or the corresponding rules applicable to Railway Employees /members of All India Services, the family pension being drawn by family pensioners will be updated in accordance with these orders. 8. All Pension Disbursing Authorities including Public Sector Banks handing disbursement of pension to the Central Government pensioner are hereby authorized to pay pension / family pension to existing pensioners / family pensioners at the consolidated rates in terms of para

286

4.1 above without any further authorization from the concerned Accounts Officers /Head of office etc. A table indicating the existing basic pension /family pension without Dearness Pension, the basic pension/family pension with Dearness pension and the revised consolidated pension /family pension is enclosed for ready reference [Annexure-I]. This table may be used where the pensioner is in receipt of a single pension only. Where a pensioner is in receipt of more than one pension, consolidation may be done separately in terms of paragraph 4.1 and as indicated in paragraph 5 floor ceiling of Rs.3500/- may be applied to total pension from all sources taken together. Wherever the age of pension /family pensioner is available on the pension payment orders, the additional pension /family pension in terms of para 4.5 may also be paid by the pension disbursing authorities immediately without any further authorization from the concerned Accounts Officer/ Head of Office, etc. A suitable entry regarding the revised consolidated pension shall be recorded by the pension Disbursing Authorities in both halves of the Pension Payment Order.

…In pursuance of Government’s decision on the recommendation of the Sixth Central

Pay Commission, orders were issued vide Board’s letter of even number dt. 15.9.2008 for introducing modifications in the rules regulating pension, Retirement/Death/Service Gratuity, Family Pension and Disability Pension under the Railway Services (Pension) Rules 1993, and Commutation of Pension under Railway Services ( Commutation of Pension ) Rules,1993, and Railway Services (Extraordinary Pension) Rules,1993. A number of references are being received in this Ministry seeking clarifications in regard to various provisions of the aforesaid letter. The matter has been considered in consultation with the Department of Pension & Pensioners’ Welfare and the Department of Expenditure and the following clarifications/ modifications are made in regard to the aforesaid letter dt. 15.9.2008:

S.No.Point raised in regard to Board’s letter No.F(E)III/2008/PN1/13 dt. 15.9.2008

Clarification/modification

1. Para 5.2 to Para 5.4

Whether the recommendation of the Sixth CPC for payment of pension at 50% of the average emoluments received during the last 10 months or the pay last drawn, whichever is more beneficial to the retiring employees, will also take effect from 2nd September,2008

(i) Yes. The Sixth Central Pay Commission has recommended in para 5.1.33 of its Report that linkage of full pension with 33 years of qualifying service should be dispensed with. Once an employee renders the minimum pensionable service of 20 years, pension should be paid at 50% of the average emoluments received during the past 10 months or the pay last drawn, whichever is more beneficial to the retiring employee. In para 6.5.3, the Commission has recommended that the recommendation regarding payment of full pension on completion of 20 years of qualifying service will take effect only prospectively for all Government employees other than PBORs in Defence Forces from the date it is accepted by the government. The recommendation in para 5.1.33 is to be taken as one package and in view of para 6.5.3 of the report of Sixth CPC, the whole recommendation in para 5.1.33 has been given

298



prospective effect.

(ii) It is, however, clarified that the pension of a post 1.1.2006 pensioner shall also not be lower than fifty percent of the sum of the minimum of the pay in the pay band and the grade pay ( or 50% of the minimum of the scale in the case of HAG+ and above) from which the pensioner has retired. For example, if a pensioner has retired in the grade pay of Rs.10,000/- p.m in the pay band of Rs.37,400-67,000, his minimum guaranteed pension would be 50% of Rs.37,400 + 10,000 i.e., Rs.23,700). For those who have retired between 1.1.2006 and 2.9.2008, the pension will be reduced pro-rata, where the pensioner had less than the maximum required service for full pension as per rule 69 of Railway Services (Pension) Rules,1993, as applicable during that period and in no case it will be less than Rs.3500 p.m. In case the pension calculated in accordance with rule 69 of Railway Services (Pension ) Rules,1993 as applicable before 2.9.2008, is higher than the pension calculated in the manner indicated above, the same (higher pension) will be treated as Basic Pension.

2 Para 5.7 and Para 8.3

Whether the additional pension/ family pension available to old pensioners would be payable from the date of attaining the age of 80 years or above or from the first day of the month in which the date of birth falls.

The additional quantum of pension / family pension, on attaining the age of 80 years and above, would be admissible from the 1 st

day of the month in which his date of birth falls. For example, of a pensioner / family pensioner completes age of 80 years in the month of August, 2008, he will be entitled to additional pension / family pension w.e.f. 1.8.2008. Those pensioners / family pensioners whose date of birth is 1st August, will also be entitled to additional pension/ family pension w.e.f. 1.8.2008 on attaining the age of 80 years and above.

3 Para 8.2

Whether the period of 10 years for payment of enhanced family pension would also apply in the case of a Railway servant who died before 1.1.2006 and in respect of whom the family was receiving enhanced family pension as on 1.1.2006.

Yes. The period of 10 years for payment of enhanced family pension will count from the date of death of the Railway servant. These orders will, however, not apply in a case where the period of seven years for payment of enhanced family pension has already been completed as on 1.1.2006 and the family was in receipt of normal family pension on that date.

4. Para 10.1[a] Whether the Constant Attendant Allowance is payable from 1.1.2006 or from 2.9.2008[b] Whether the pensioners who retired on disability pension before 1.1.2006 would also be entitled to Constant Attendant Allowance[c] Whether Dearness Relief will be admissible on Constant Attendant Allowance

[a] Constant Attendant Allowance is payable from 1.1.2006

[b] Yes, the pensioners who retired on disability pension before 1.1.2006 and fulfilling the conditions mentioned in para 10.1 would also be entitled to Constant Attendant Allowance.

[c] No.

5 Para 11The Railway servants who retired within 10 months from 1.1.1996 were allowed the benefit of notional increase of 40% on the pre-1996 basic pay for the purpose of calculation of average emoluments. Whether similar benefit would be given in the case of Railway servants who have retired within 10 months from the date of coming over to the revised Pay structure after 1.1.2006.

For the purpose of computing average emoluments in the case of Railway servants who have opted for fixation of pay in the revised Pay Band and retire within 10 months from the date of coming over to the revised Pay Band, basic pay for 10 months period preceding retirement shall be calculated by taking into account pay as follows:

[i] For the period during which pay is drawn in revised Pay Structure – Pay drawn in the prescribed pay band plus the applicable grade pay or the pay in the pay scale in the case of HAG+ and above.[ii] For the remaining period during which pay is drawn in pre-

299



revised scale of pay –

[a] Basic pay plus dearness pay and actual DA appropriate to the basic pay at the rates in force on 1.1.2006 drawn during the relevant period.

[b] Notional increase of the basic pay by applying the fitment benefit of 40% on the basic pay in the pre-revised pay scale.

The clarification [ii] against S.No.1 above will also be applicable in such cases.Para 11 will stand modified to this extent.

6. Para 12 [ii]Whether the benefit of calculation of pension @ 50% of emoluments will be available to Railway servants who retain the pre-revised scale of pay and also retire from the pre-revised scale of pay.

The provision in para 12[ii] of the letter dated 15.9.2008 will be applicable in the case o those who retire on or after 2.9.2008. Pension of Railway servant who retain the pre-revised scale of pay and also retired from the pre-revised scale of pay between 1.1.2006 and 2.9.2008 will be calculated at 50% of average emoluments in accordance with the orders in force immediately before 2.9.2008.Para 12[ii] will stand modified to this extent.

2. It is impressed upon the Zonal Railways etc. to keep in view the above clarifications while disposing of the cases of revision of pension / family pension.

A copy of Board's letter No.F[E] III/ 2008/PN1/6 dated 15.10.2008, RBE No. 115/2008 is published for information, guidance and necessary action. regarding implementation of VI Central Pay Commission recommendations i.e. Railway Services (Revised Pay) Rules,2008 is published.

Sub: Institution of proceedings against retired Railway servants under rule 9 of Railway Services(Pension) Rules,1993 –release of pensionary benefits reg.

…In terms of Rule 9 of Railway Services (Pension) Rules,1993, a railway servant against whom

departmental or judicial proceedings instituted before his retirement are pending finalization on the date of his retirement, after the final retirement of the railway servant such proceedings shall be deemed to be proceedings under Rule 9 of Railway Services (Pension) Rules,1993 and he shall be paid provisional pension from the date of retirement upto the date on which final orders are passed by the competent authority after the conclusion of departmental or judicial proceedings.2. An instance has come to the notice of the Board in that a retired railway servant of a Zonal Railway was issued a Charge Memorandum under Rule 9 of Railway Services (Pension) Rules,1993 after his retirement. Though a decision had been taken before his retirement in consultation with Central Vigilance Commission to proceed against him under Railway Servants ( Discipline & Appeal) Rules,1968 which, due to unavoidable circumstances, could not be implemented before his retirement. However, on his retirement the Railway sanctioned him only the provisional pension. The retired railway servant requested for sanction of final pension and payment of commutation value on the grounds that as on the date of retirement no disciplinary proceedings were pending against him nor he was under suspension.3. Considering the seriousness of the issue as it involved an important question of policy and interpretation of Rule 9 of Railway Services (Pension) Rules,1993 and Rule 4 of Railway Services ( Commutation of Pension) Rules,1993, the matter has been examined in consultation with the Department of Pension & Pensioners’ Welfare and it is clarified that a railway servant against whom any departmental or judicial proceedings are not pending on the date of retirement or he is not placed under suspension on

300

the date of retirement, shall not be denied the final pensionary benefits, including commutation of pension, as may be due to him in accordance with provisions contained in Railway Services (Pension) Rules,1993.

The pension calculated at 50% of the minimum of pay in the pay band plus grade pay would be calculated [i] at the minimum of the pay in the pay band [irrespective of pre-revised scale of pay] plus the grade pay corresponding to the pre-revised pay scale. For example, if a pensioner had retired in the pre-revised scale of pay of Rs.18400-22400, the corresponding pay band being Rs. 37400-67000 and the corresponding grade pay being Rs.10,000/-p.m. his minimum guaranteed pension would be 50% of Rs.37,400 + Rs.10000 [i.e. Rs.23,700].

The pension will be reduced pro-rata, where the pensioner had less than the maximum required service for full pension as per rule 49 of the CCS [Pension] Rules, 1972 as applicable on 01.01.2006 and in no case it will be less than Rs.3500/- p.m.

Personal pension was discontinued vide Department of Pension and PW O.M. No. 45/86/97-P&PW[A] [Pt.IV] dated 21.9.2000. Therefore, this para may be treated as deleted.

5.1 Where the consolidated pension / family pension in terms of paragraph 4 above works out to an amount less than Rs.3500/- the same shall be stepped up to Rs.3500/-. This will be regarded as pension /family pension with effect from 1.1.2006. In the case of pensioners who are in receipt of more than one pension, the floor ceiling of Rs.3500/- will apply to the total of all pensions taken together.

It was clarified in Department of Pension and PW O.M. No. 38/38/02-P&PW[A] [Pt.IV] dated 23.4.2003 that in respect of civil and military pension, the floor ceiling taking the two pensions together will not apply and the individual pensions will be governed by respective pension rules. These instructions would continue to apply in the context of revised floor ceiling of Rs.3500/- p.m. Accordingly, the floor ceiling of Rs.3500 will apply individually to the civil and military pension.

Where the disability pension is drawn in isolation, the minimum limit of Rs.3500 will apply for 100% disability. For lesser degree of disability the minimum limit will be proportionately less.

It was clarified in Department of Pension and PW’s O.M. No. 45/86/87-P&PW[A] dated 07.8.2001 that the element of disability pension and invalid pension may be treated as distinct pensions. The invalid pension may continue to be regulated as per the CCS [Pension]Rules subject to certain minimum amount* and the extraordinary disability pension may continue to be treated as a separate element and this should be fixed as per the degree of disability. This will be subject to the further condition that the amount of disability pension and invalid pension should in no case exceed the last pay drawn. These instructions would continue to apply in the context of revised minimum pension of Rs.3500/- p.m. Para 5.2 will stand modified to this extent.

[* certain minimum amount refers to the amount calculated as per the provisions of Rule 49[2][c] of CCS[Pension Rules, 1972]

6. The employed /re-employed pensioners / family pensioners are not getting dearness relief on pension at present under the extant orders. In their case the notional dearness relief which would have been admissible to them but for their employment /re-employment will be taken into account for consolidation of their pension. In terms of paragraph 4.1 above as they were drawing the dearness relief. Their pay will be re-fixed w.e.f. 1.1.2006 with reference to consolidated pension becoming admissible to them. Dearness relief beyond 1.1.2006 will, however, not be admissible to them during the period of employment / re-employment.

Instructions were issued vide Department of Pension & PW OM No. 45/73/97-P&PW[G] dated 2.7.1999 for regulation of dearness relief when pay on re-employment is fixed at the minimum ignoring the full pension and also for regulation of dearness relief of employed family pensioners. These instructions would continue to apply in the context of revised pension on implementation of the recommendations of the Sixth Central Pay Commission. Para 6 will stand modified to this extent.

2. It is impressed upon all the Ministries /Departments of the Government of India to keep in view the above clarifications while disposing of the cases of revision of pension / family pension.

SERIAL CIRCULAR NO.169 /2008P(R)500/XXIII Date: 21 -11–2008

Copy of Board's letter No.F(E)III/2003/PN1/5 dated 4.11.2008 is published for information, guidance and necessary action. Board’s letter dated 9.5.2005 quoted therein was circulated as SC No.90/2005.

Copy of Bd's letter No. F(E)III/2003/PN1/5 dated 4.11.2008 (RBE No. 164/08)

Sub: Grant of Compassionate Allowance….

In terms of proviso to Rule 65(1) of Railway Services(Pension) Rules,1993, the authority competent to dismiss or remove a Railway servant from service may, if the case is deserving of special consideration, sanction a Compassionate allowance not exceeding two-thirds of pension or gratuity or both which would have been admissible to him if he had retired on compensation pension. This is the discretionary power vested in the authority competent to dismiss or remove a railway servant, to be exercised by that authority suo-motu, at the time of passing orders of dismissal or removal from service or immediately thereafter.

2. Para 1 of Board’s letter of even number dated 9.5.2005 stipulates that past cases where the competent authority, in exercise of its discretionary powers, had not sanctioned compassionate allowance at the time of passing orders of removal/dismissal or immediately thereafter, cannot be reopened for review on the basis of representations received from the removed/dismissed employees and members of their family at a later date. In this connection, a number of representations have been received from different quarters for reviewing deserving genuine cases where the competent authority had not passed specific orders for or against grant of compassionate allowance. The issue has also been raised in DC/JCM Meeting held in December, 2007.

3. The matter has, therefore, been considered by the Board in consultation with Department of Pension and Pensioners’ Welfare and it has been decided to reiterate that in cases where a decision has already been taken by the disciplinary authority not to grant compassionate allowance, such a decision is final, which should not be reviewed at any later stage. However, in partial modification of Board’s letter dated 09.05.2005, it has also been decided by the Board that out of the past cases in which the disciplinary authority had not passed any specific orders for or against grant of compassionate allowance, if any case appears to be deserving for consideration being given, may be reviewed by the disciplinary authority concerned on receipt of representations of dismissed/removed employees or the family members of the deceased employees keeping in view the following conditions:

(i) Only those past cases can be reviewed where records pertaining to D&A proceedings and Service records are available. D&A proceedings are essential to take a fair decision duly considering the gravity of the offence and other aspects involved therein and to confirm that the question of sanction or otherwise of compassionate allowance was not considered by the competent authority at any stage. Service records are essential to adjudge the kind of service rendered by the dismissed/removed employee and to determine the net qualifying service for working out the quantum of compassionate allowance, if sanctioned.

(ii) Each case will have to be considered on its merits and conclusion reached on the question whether there were any extenuating factors associated with the case that would make the punishment of dismissal/removal, which though imposed in the interest of the Railways, appear unduly hard on the individual.

(iii) Not only the grounds on which the Railway servant was removed/dismissed, but also the kind of service rendered should be taken into account.

(iv) Award of compassionate allowance should not be considered if the Railway servant had been dishonest, which was a ground for his removal/dismissal.

(v) Though poverty is not an essential condition precedent to the award of compassionate allowance, due consideration can be made of the individual’s spouse and children dependent upon him.

312

4. On review of such cases, if the competent authority sanctions compassionate allowance to a dismissed/removed Railway servant, the same shall be effective from the date of removal/dismissal. In case the competent authority decides to sanction family pension to the spouse or eligible family member of the deceased Railway servant, compassionate allowance shall be sanctioned notionally from the date of dismissal/removal to make the family eligible for family pension and in such cases family pension shall be payable for the period commencing from the date following the date of death of the removed/dismissed Railway servant.

In continuation of the aforesaid O.Ms dated 1st September,2008 and 3rd October,2008, the DOP&PW has issued O.M.No.38/37/08-P&PW(A) Pt.1 dated 14th October, 2008 authorising the pension disbursing Public Sector Banks to revise and disburse the enhanced pension and arrears in terms of para 4.2 of the OM dated 1st September,2008. The OM dated 14th October,2008 is circulated for information and necessary action.

In accordance with the provision contained in para 7 of the O.M. dated 14.10.2008, the question of devising a monitoring mechanism to ensure disbursement of enhanced pension and family pension to all concerned by 30.11.2008, has been considered by the Board and it has been decided that:

(a) Chief Personnel Officer (CPO) should nominate officers of Personnel Department in the Headquarters and Divisions/other offices to monitor the progress of revision of pension by Pension Sanctioning Authorities and submission of the cases to Associate Accounts Offices. The progress made in the revision of pension cases showing number of cases due for revision; cases revised and sent to Accounts should be monitored on weekly basis by the CPO to ensure that target laid down by DOP&PW is strictly adhered to. The CPOs should report the position in the monthly d.o. to MS.

(b) FA&CAOs should nominate Dy.CAO in charge of pension work at HQ Office and head of Accounts Offices at Division/Workshops etc. to monitor progress of the cases so received from Personnel Department and ensure that these are scrutinized and revised Pension Payment Advices are issued within a weeks’ time. The nominated officers should report the progress to FA&CAOs fortnightly, reporting the position of cases received, cleared and pending in Accounts Offices, alongwith reasons for delays in disposal of these cases. The position of the cases received in Accounts should be reconciled with the Personnel Department and a certificate to this effect, be invariably recorded in the report before advising the position to FA&CAO. The FA&CAOs should report the progress of clearance of cases received in Accounts Offices to FC(Rlys) in their MCDOs alongwith reasons for delay in finalization of pending cases.

Copy of Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances & Pensions, Department of Pension & Pensioners Welfare’s O.M.No.38/37/08-P&PW(A) Pt.1 dt.14 th October,2008.

Sub: Implementation of Government’s decision on the recommendations of the Sixth Central Pay Commission – Revision of pension of pre-2006 pensioners/family pensioners etc.

The undersigned is directed to say that in pursuance of Government’s decision on the recommendations of Sixth Central Pay Commission, sanction of the President was accorded to the regulation, with effect from 1.1.2006, of pension/family pension of all the pre-2006 pensioners/family pensioners in the manner indicated in this Department’s O.M.No.38/37/08-P&PW(A) dated 1.9.2008. Clarifications on certain provisions were also issued vide O.M.No.38/37/08/ P&PW(A) Pt.I dated 3.10.2008.

A large number of representations are being received in this Department regarding delay in payment of pension/family pension and arrears to the pre-2006 pensioners/family pensioners. The matter has been reviewed in consultation with all concerned including the pension disbursing banks. In this connection, the following revised instructions are issued for implementation by all concerned.

Wherever, the pension is disbursed through Public Sector Banks, the Banks will pay and disburse the pension and arrears in accordance with the ready reckoner and also the additional pension to old pensioners/family pensioners (wherever the date of birth is available in the PPO) within a week from the date of issue of this OM.

A revised concordance table (Annexure-I) of the pre-1996, pre-2006 and post-2006 pay scales/pay bands is enclosed to facilitate payment of revised pension/family pension in terms of para 4.2 of the OM dated 1.9.2008 (as clarified vide OM dated 3.10.2008) in all cases where fixation of pension under that provision is more beneficial. Some illustrations for calculation of pension/family pension in terms of para 4.2 ibid have been given in Annexure II. It will be the responsibility of the pension disbursing public sector banks to revise and disburse the enhanced pension and arrears in terms of para 4.2 of the OM dated 1.9.2008. Dearness relief at the rates notified from time to time will also be admissible on such revised pension. All the pension disbursing public sector banks are requested to revise and disburse the enhanced pension (with dearness relief) and arrears in terms of para 4.2 of the OM dated 1.9.2008 within one month from the date of issue of this OM. A suitable entry regarding the revised pension shall be recorded by the pension Disbursing Authorities in both halves of the Pension Payment Order. An intimation regarding disbursement of revised pension may be sent by the pension disbursing authorities to the office of CPAO and Accounts which had issued the PPO in the revised Form given at Annexure III so that they can verify the pension so revised and update the Pension Payment Order Register, etc. An acknowledgement shall be obtained by the Pension Disbursing Authorities from office of CPAO and the respective Accounts Officers in this behalf.

In case any information regarding date of birth, scale of pay or the qualifying service, etc. is not available with the bank, the bank may obtain the requisite information from the concerned Pay and Accounts Officer/CPAO. It will be the responsibility of the concerned Pay and Accounts Officer/CPAO to provide the information from the available records within two weeks of the receipt of request from the bank.

Suitable guidelines on the methodology to be adopted for payment of additional pension to old pensioners in cases where the date of birth is not available in the PPO as well as in the office records of CPAO/Pay and Accounts Office will be issued separately.

CGA/CPAO will devise their own monitoring mechanism to ensure that enhanced pension and arrears are disbursed to all civil/pensioners/family pensioners by 30.11.2008 positively. Similarly instructions may be issued by Ministry of Defence and Ministry of Railways to their concerned Accounts Department accordingly.

Sub: Payment of interest on delayed payment of gratuity – manner of calculation reg.

****Instructions were issued vide Board’s letter No. F[E]III/94/PN1/28 dated 01.11.1994

inter-alia providing that where the payment of DCRG has been delayed beyond 3 months from the date of retirement, interest at the rate applicable to SRPF deposits [then 12 per cent per annum, compounded annually] will be paid to retired / dependents of deceased Railway servant. Subsequently, instructions were issued in supersession of earlier instructions dated 01.11.1994, vide Board’s letter of even number dated 27.06.2002 wherein the provision for payment of interest on delayed payment of DCRG was simply reiterated without mentioning therein the words “compounded annually”.

2. In this regard, a point has been raised under RTI Act, 2005 as to whether the manner of calculation of interest on delayed payment of gratuity has been changed from ‘compound’ to ’simple interest’ consequent upon issue of Board’s letter dated 27.6.2002. Since Board’s aforementioned instructions were based on the corresponding instructions issued by the Department of Pension and Pensioner’s Welfare, the matter has been examined in consultation with that Department and it is clarified that there is no change in the manner of calculation of interest on delayed payment of gratuity i.e. interest should be calculated at the rate applicable to SRPF deposits compounded annually.

3. The Zonal Railways etc. are advised that past cases, where simple interest has been paid, may be re-opened and the difference between simple interest and compound interest may be paid.

Sub: Representations regarding revision of pension of pre-2006 pensioners.***

The undersigned is directed to say that in accordance with instructions contained in para 4.2 of this Department’s O.M. of even number dated 01.09.2008, the fixation of pension will be subject to the provision that the revised pension, in no case, shall be lower than fifty percent of the minimum of the pay in the pay band plus the grade pay corresponding to the pre-revised pay scale from which the pensioner had retired. In the case of HAG+ and above scales, this will be fifty per cent of the minimum of the revised pay scale. It was clarified in the OM dated 3.10.2008 that the pension calculated at 50% of the minimum of pay in the pay band plus grade pay would be calculated at the minimum of the pay in the pay band [irrespective of the pre-revised scale of pay] plus the grade pay corresponding to the pre-revised pay scale. The pension will be reduced pro-rata, where the pensioner had less than maximum required service as per rule 49 of the CCS[Pension] Rules, 1972 as applicable before 2.9.2008 and in no case it will be less than Rs.3500/-p.m. The fixation of family pension will be subject to the provision that the revised family pension, in no case, shall be lower than thirty per cent of the sum of the minimum of the pay in the pay band and the grade pay thereon corresponding to the pre-revised pay scale from which the pensioner had retired. A Table indicating the revised pension based on revised pay bands and grade pay was also annexed with this Department’s OM dated 14.10.2008.

in this Department’s OM No.38/37/2008-P&PW(A) dated 2nd September,2008, in the case of those pensioners, in whose case commutation of pension became absolute on or after 1.1.2006 but before the issue of that O.M, the pre-revised Table of Commutation Value for Pension will be used for payment of commutation of pension based on pre-revised pay/pension. Such pensioners shall have an option to commute the amount of pension that has become additionally commutable on account of retrospective revision of pay/pension on implementation of the recommendations of the Sixth Central Pay Commission. On exercising such an option by the pensioner, the revised Table of Commutation Value for Pension will be used for the commutation of the additional amount of pension that has become commutable on account of retrospective revision of pay/pension.

2. A number of references have been received in this Department seeking clarifications in regard to various issues relating to commutation of pension in case a pensioner opts for commutation of pension that has become additionally commutable on account of retrospective revision of pay/pension. The matter has been examined in consultation with the Ministry of Finance ( Department of Expenditure) and the following clarifications are issued in this regard.

used for commutation of additional commutable pension and which factor would be used for such additional commuted value of pension

The age reckoned for calculation of commuted value of pension at the time of original application for commutation of pension will apply for calculation of commutation value of additional commutable pension,. However, as mentioned in the O.M. dated 2.9.2008, the commutation factor in the revised Table of Commutation Value for Pension will be used for the commutation of the additional amount of pension that has become commutable on account of retrospective revision of pay/pension.

2 From which date the reduction in pension on account of additional commutation of pension will take effect?

Reduction in pension on account of additional commutation of pension will be in two stages as per the provisions contained in Rule 6 of the CCS ( Commutation of Pension)Rules,1981.

3 What will be the date of restoration of additional commutation of pension ?

The commuted portion of pension shall be restored after 15 years from the respective dates of commutation as provided in Government of India decision No.1 under Rule 10 of CCS (Commutation of Pension) Rules,1981. Necessary endorsement should be made in the PPO.

332

whereabouts are not known, within a period of one year from the date of registration of an FIR with the police.2.

The demand of the staff side is based on the premise that this kind of stipulation in the rules has been causing a great deal of hardship to the families of such kidnapped employees.

3. The matter has been considered in this Department in consultation with the Ministry of Finance [Deptt. Of Expenditure]/ Ministry of Law. It has now been decided that the family pension to the eligible family members of the Government employees kidnapped by insurgents/terrorists, may be sanctioned after a period of six months from the date of registration of FIR with the police. The instructions concerning grant / disbursal of retirement or death gratuity, as contained in this Department’s OM referred to above, would remain the same.

Copy of Department of Pension and Pensioners’ Welfare (DOP&PW)’s O.M. No.38/37/08-P&PW(A) dated 12 th May, 2009

Subject: Representations regarding.

The undersigned is directed to say that in accordance with the instructions contained in this Department’s O.M. No.38/37/08-P&PW(A) dated 2.9.2008 as clarified vide O.M. dated 11.12.2008, those Government servants, who retired during 1.1.2006 to 1.9.2008 after completion of 33 years of qualifying service, will be eligible for full pension (i.e. 50% of the emoluments (pay last drawn) or 50% of average emoluments received during the last 10 months, whichever is more beneficial to the retiring employee) and the pension of those Government servants, who retired before 2.9.2008 with qualifying service of less than 33 years, will continue to be proportionate to the full pension based on their actual qualifying service.

2. A large number of representations/references are being received in this Department mentioning that the above provisions are not in accordance with the law laid down by the Apex Court and are in violation of Article 14 of the Constitution. It has been suggested in these representations that the provision regarding payment of full pension on completion of 20 years qualifying service may be made applicable to the Government employees who retired before 2.9.2008 also.

3. These representations/references have been examined in consultation with Ministry of Finance and Ministry of Law. The instructions/clarifications issued in this regard are in consonance with the decision of the Government on the recommendations of the Sixth Central Pay Commission. The Government by accepting various recommendations of the Sixth Pay Commission took a policy decision to implement them from difference dates. The Government decided to implement the above recommendations regarding pension from 2.9.2008 without dividing a single homogenous class of pensioners into two groups and subjecting them to different treatment. In view of the above and also in the light of the various decisions of the Hon’ble Supreme Court allowing the employer to fix a cut off date for introducing any new pension/retirement scheme or for discontinuance of any existing scheme, the decision of the Government in para 1 above is in accordance with the law laid down by the Apex Court and there is no violation of Article 14 of the Constitution.

4. In view of the above, no change is required to be made in the instructions already issued in this regard.

5. All references/representations received in this Department on the above issue stand disposed off accordingly.

of DOP&PW O.M. No.38/37/08-P&PW[A] dated 01.09.2008 on the above subject was circulated. The OM ibid envisages that HOD of the Ministry /Department etc. from which the

Government servant had retired would issue revised Pension Payment Order. Subsequently, vide OM of the same number dated 14.10.2008, circulated under Board’s letter No. F[E]III/2008/PN1/12 dated 18.11.2008, Pension Disbursing Banks have been authorized to revise the pension /family pension in accordance with the consolidation table and to set up the same, wherever needed. These instructions also provide for making suitable entry regarding the revised amount of pension /family pension in both halves of PPOs by the Pension Disbursing Authorities under intimation to the Accounts Officer, who issued the PPO, so that the latter will verify the pension so revised and update the PPO register etc.

In this regard a number of references were received from various Zonal Railway Administrations seeking clarifications as to whether revised PPOs are still required to be issued by respective Departments in all cases of pre-2006 retirees on the ground that issue of PPOs by them will lead to duplication of work and other difficulties due to change of their address and account number to 16 digit by the banks ( owing to introduction of Core Banking System) etc. In view of above, DOP&PW was requested to examine the issue and clarify as to whether revised PPOs are still required to be issued by the Pension Sanctioning Authorities. In this regard DOP&PW has clarified that as per their O.M. dated 14.10.2008, all pension disbursing banks are required to revise and disburse the enhanced pension ( with dearness relief) and arrears and record a suitable entry regarding the revised pension in both halves of Pension Payment Order. Further, an intimation regarding disbursement of revised pension would be sent by the banks to the office of Accounts Officer which had issued the PPO in the prescribed form ( Annexure III) of the letter ibid so that they could verify the pension so revised and update the Pension Payment Order Register, etc. It has been mentioned in the said annexure that the verification/final revision of pension/family pension in respect of pensioners would be done by the Accounts Officer concerned, Accordingly, in cases where the information ibid has been received by the Accounts Officer from the banks, he should verify the same and arrange to issue a revised authority in association with Pension Sanctioning Authority for payment of pension and if there is any discrepancy in the revision of pension by the Bank, the bank should be informed for making necessary adjustment. In cases where the information has not been received from the banks the Accounts Officer should arrange to issue revised authority in association with Pension Sanctioning Authority and send it to Bank for making the payment of pension accordingly. In case of difficulties/problems faced by the Railways in revision of PPAs due to non-updation of essential details of pensioners, the same may be called for from the pensioners through news paper advertisements ( sample copy enclosed.)

Necessary action may be taken accordingly.

Sub: Implementation of Government’s decision on the recommendations of Sixth Central Pay Commission – Revision of pension of pre-2006 pensioners/family pensioners etc.

<><><>

The undersigned is directed say that in this Department’s OM of even number dated 14.10.2008, all the pension disbursing public sector banks were requested to revise and disburse the enhanced pension (with dearness relief) and arrears within one month from the date of issue of that O.M. It was mentioned that a suitable entry regarding the revised pension would be recorded by the pension Disbursing Authorities in both halves of the Pension Payment Order and an intimation regarding disbursement of revised pension would be sent by the pension disbursing authorities to the Office of CPAO and Accounts Officer which had issued the PPO in the revised form given at Annexure III of the said OM so that they could verify the pension so revised and update the Pension Payment Order Register, etc. In Annexure III, it was mentioned that the verification/final revision of pension/family pension in respect of pensioners would be done by the Pay and Accounts Officer concerned.

2. Accordingly, in cases where the information in Annexure III has been received by the Pay and Accounts Officer from the Pension Disbursing Banks etc. he should verify the same and issue a revised authority for payment of pension. In case there is any discrepancy in the revision of pension by the Bank, the bank should be informed by the Pay and Accounts Officer immediately for making necessary adjustment. In cases where the information in Annexure III has not been received by the Pay and Accounts Officer from the Bank, the Pay and Accounts Officer should issue revised authority for payment of pension based on the PPO/available records and send it to Bank for making the payment of revised pension accordingly.

3. In the aforesaid OM dated 14.10.2008, it was provided that in case any information regarding date of birth, scale of pay or the qualifying service, etc was not available with the bank, the bank may obtain the requisite information from the concerned Pay and Accounts Officer/CPAO. It would be the responsibility of the concerned Pay and Accounts Officer/CPAO to provide the information from the available records within two weeks of the receipt of request from the bank.

4. The matter regarding the methodology to be adopted for payment of additional pension to old pensioners/family pensioners in cases where the date of birth is not available in the PPO as well as in the office records of CPAO/Pay and Accounts Office had been under consideration in consultation with the Controller General of Accounts and the Ministry of Finance. It has now been decided that in case the exact date of birth is not available either in the PPO or in the office records but an indication regarding the age of pensioner/family pensioner is available in the office record, the additional pension/family pension shall be paid from the Ist January of the year following the year in which the pensioners/family pensioner has competed the age of 80 years, 85 years, etc. based on PPO/Office records. For example, if the records show that the pensioner/family pensioner has already completed the age of 80 years/85 years as on 1st January,2008, he shall be allowed additional pension/family pension from 1st January,2008.

5. In case neither the exact date of birth nor the age is available either in the PPO or in the office records, the Pension Disbursing Authority/Bank will send an intimation to the pensioners/family pensioner about the non-availability of the information regarding date of birth/age and request him to submit four copies of any of the following documents, duly attested by a Gazetted Officer/MLA to the Pension Disbursing Authority:-

(i) Pan card(ii) Matriculation certificate (containing the information regarding date of birth)(iii) Passport

342

(iv) CGHS Card(v) Driving Licence (if it contains date of birth)

If the pensioner/family pensioner submits a document which contains the information regarding exact date of birth, the additional pension/family pension will be payable from the 1st day of the month in which his date of birth falls, in the manner indicted in this Department’s O.M. of even number dated 3.10.2008. In case the exact date of birth is not available on the document submitted by the pensioner/family pensioner but an indication regarding the age of pensioner/family pensioner is available therein, the additional pension/family pension shall be paid from the 1st January of the year following the year in which the pensioner/family pensioner has completed the age of 80 years, 85 years, etc. based on the document submitted by the pensioner/family pensioner. For example, if the copy of the Election ID card submitted by the pensioner/family pensioner indicates that his/her age on 1st January,2007 is 80 years, he/she shall be allowed additional pension/family pension from 1st January,2007.

6. The Pension Disbursing Authority/Bank will make payment of additional pension/family pension in the above manner, on provisional basis, up to a period of three months from the month in which the proof of age/date of birth is submitted by the pensioner/family pensioner. In such cases, the Pension Disbursing Authority/Bank will immediately send one copy each of the document submitted by the pensioner/family pensioner to the Pay and Account Officer/CPAO for formal authorization of the additional pension/family pension. The Pension Disbursing Authority/Bank will make payment of additional pension/family pension beyond a period of three months only on receipt of such an authorization from the Pay and Account Officer.

7. In case the pensioner/family pensioner is unable to submit any of the documents mentioned in para 5 above but claims additional pension based on some other documentary evidence, such cases will be submitted to the administrative Ministry. If the administrative Ministry is satisfied about the claim of the pensioner/family pensioner, it will authorize additional pension/family pension accordingly. The decision of the Administrative Ministry in this regard will be final.

8. It is impressed upon all the Ministries/Departments of the Government of India and the pension disbursing authorities to keep in view the above decisions while disposing of the cases of payment of additional pension/family pension. CGA/CPAO are requested to advise all Pension disbursing/sanctioning authorities to take suitable action in accordance with the above instructions/guidelines. Similarly instructions may be issued by Ministry of Defence and Ministry of Railways to their concerned Accounts Department accordingly.

Sub: Implementation of Government’s decision on the recommendations of the Sixth Central Pay Commission – Revision of pension of pre-2006 pensioners.

***The undersigned is directed to say that in accordance with para 4.2 of this Department’s

OM No. 38/37/08-P&PW[A] dated 1.9.2008 [as clarified vide OM dated 3.10.2008 and 14.10.2008], the revised pension of pre-2006 pensioners shall, in no case, be lower than fifty percent of the minimum of the pay in the pay band plus the grade pay corresponding to the pre-revised pay scale from which the pensioner had retired. In the case of HAG+ and above scales, this will be fifty percent of the minimum of the revised pay scale. Clarifications have been sought by Ministries /Departments to whether Non-Practising Allowance [NPA] is to be added to the minimum of the revised pay band plus the grade pay /revised pay scale while considering stepping up consolidated pension on 1.1.2006. The matter has been examined in consultation with the Ministry of Finance [Department of Expenditure].

2. On implementation of the recommendations of Fifth Central Pay Commission, NPA was not added to the minimum of the revised scale of pay as on 1.1.1996 in cases where consolidated pension / family pension was to be stepped up to 50% / 30% respectively. Hon’ble Supreme Court , in its judgement dated 10.10.2006 in Transfer Case [civil] 72 of 2004 – Col.[Retd] B.J. Akkara vs. UOI & others, upheld the validity of OM dated 11.9.2001 of Ministry of Defence not allowing the benefit of NPA in the case of retired medical officers of Armed Forces

346

to be added to the minimum of revised scale of pay as on 1.1.1996 corresponding to the scale of pay held by the pensioner at the time of his retirement. Hon’ble Supreme Court held that the NPA is not the part of minimum of the revised pay scale as on 1.1.1996.

3. NPA granted to medical officers does not form part of the Pay Bands / scales of pay. It is a separate element although it is taken into account for the purpose of computation of pension. It is, therefore, clarified that in the case of pre-2006 pensioners NPA is not to be added to the minimum of the revised pay band + Grade pay / revised pay scale in cases where consolidated pension /family pension as on 1.1.2006 is to be stepped up to 50% /30% respectively, in terms of para 4.2 of Department of Pension and PW’s OM No. 38/37/08-P&PW[A] dated 1.9.2008 [ as clarified vide OM dated 3.10.2008 and 14.10.2008].

4. It is impressed upon all the Ministries / Departments of the Government of India to keep in view the above clarifications while disposing of the cases of revision of pension / family pension. They are also advised to dispose the representations received by them from pensioners on the above issues without referring them to this Department.

OFFICE MEMORANDUM

Sub: Family Pension – Extension of the scope of Family Pension to the dependent disabled siblings [i.e. brothers/sisters] of Central Government servants / Pensioners-reg.

***The undersigned is directed to say that as per the existing provisions in Rule 54[14]

of the CCS[Pension] Rules, 1972, read with various orders/ instructions issued by this Department in this regard from time to time, the following are presently covered in the definition of ‘family’ in relation to a Government servant / Pensioners for the purpose of eligibility of family pension:

350

a] Wife in the case of a male Government servant, or husband in the case of a female Government servant.

b] A judicially separated wife or husband, such separation not being granted on the ground of adultery and the person surviving was not held guilty of committing adultery.

c] Son/Daughter upto the date of his/her marriage or till the date he/she starts earning, or till the age of 25 years, whichever is the earliest;

d] Unmarried/widowed/divorced daughter, upto the date of marriage/remarriage or till the date she starts earning, whichever is the earliest; and

e] Parents who were wholly dependent upon Government servant when he/she was alive provided the deceased employee has left behind neither a widow nor a child.

Further, the dependency criteria for the purpose of family pension has been revised and fixed as the minimum family pension, alongwith the dearness relief thereon, vide this Department’s O.M. No. 38/37/08-P&PW[A] dt. 2.9.2008.

2. Representations have been received in this Department from various quarters requesting for extension of the scope of family pension so as to cover the dependent disabled siblings [i.e. brothers/sisters] of Government servants/pensioners within the ambit of ‘family’ for the purpose of eligibility for family pension. The arguments advanced by the representationists in support of their request are that the dependent disabled siblings [i.e. brothers/sisters] are left to fend for themselves after the death of the Government servant/pensioner on whom they were fully dependent before his/her death. They need to be taken care of by the society and the Government as they are helpless and without any means to manage their lives.

3. These representations have been sympathetically examined in this Department in consultation with other Ministries/Departments concerned. It has now been decided to include the dependent disabled siblings [i.e. brothers/sisters] of Government servants/pensioners in the definition of ‘family’ for the purpose of eligibility for family pension. Such disabled siblings shall be eligible for family pension for life in the same manner and following the same disability criteria, as laid down in Rule 54 of the CCS [Pension] Rules, 1972 in the case of son/daughter of Government employees /Pensioners suffering from any disorder or disability of mind [including mentally retarded ] or physically crippled or disabled, so as to render him/her unable to earn a living even after attaining the age of 25 years.

4. This issues with the concurrence of Ministry of Finance, Department of Expenditure vide their U.O.No. 677/E-V/2008 dt. 19.2.2009.

5. These orders, insofar as their applicability relates to the employees of the Indian Audit and Accounts Department, are being issued in consultation with the Comptroller and Auditor General of India, vide their U.O. No.69 –Audit [Rules]/26-2008 dt. 17.7.2009.

Sub: Grant of family pension to a son/daughter of a deceased Railway employee, suffering from any disorder/disability of mind/mentally retarded or physically crippled/disabled – clarification regarding.

***A number of references have been received from the zonal Railways, etc., seeking

clarification on certain issues relating to grant of family pension to a son/daughter of a deceased Railway employee, suffering from any disorder /disability of mind/mentally retarded or physically crippled/disabled and is rendered incapable of earning a living even after attaining the age of 25 years, in terms of the provisions contained in Rule 75[6] of the Railway Services [Pension] Rules, 1993. The matter has been examined in consultation with the Department of Pension and Pensioners’ Welfare, and the position is clarified as under:

S.No. Clarification sought Clarification given [a] Whether non-intimation of disability of a child by a

pensioner/spouse in is/her life time renders the child ineligible for family pension?

Non-intimation of physical/mental handicap does not make a person ineligible for family pension.

[b] Whether a disabled child would be ineligible for family pension if his/her disability is manifested after attaining the age of 25 years?

Disability manifesting itself after 25 years is also acceptable for disbursement of family pension.

[c] Whether a disabled child would be ineligible for family pension if his/her disability is manifested before the age of 25 years but is certified by an authorized Medical Officer after attaining the said age?

No.

2. Accordingly, the Zonal Railways etc., are advised to settle cases of family pension of sons/daughters of deceased Railway employees, suffering from any disorder/disability of mind/mentally retarded or physically crippled/disabled and are rendered incapable of earning a living even after attaining the age of 25 years, which were pending on the Railways for want of the above clarification, at the earliest. While disposing of such cases, it should, however, be kept in view that married sons and daughters, whether suffering from any disorder /disability of mind/mentally retarded or physically crippled/disabled, are not eligible for family pension as per the extant instructions.

Sub: Verification of correctness of emoluments of Railway servants.

361

***In terms of Rule 78 of Railway Services (Pension) Rules,1993, the Head of Office shall

undertake the work of preparation of pension papers of retiring railway servants two years before the date of retirement. Rule 79(1)(b)(iii) of the Pension Rules ibid and Para 1023 of the Indian Railways Code for the Accounts Department stipulate that for the purpose of calculation of average emoluments, the Head of Office shall verify from the service book the correctness of the emoluments drawn or to be drawn during the last ten months of service and that verification of correctness of emoluments should not go back to a period beyond 24 months preceding the date of retirement.2. In the backdrop of the rules quoted in para 1 above, one of the Zonal Railways has stated that difficulties are being experienced by the Railway in effecting recovery of the amount of overpayment of pay and allowances from the retirement gratuity of the retiring employees due to the provisions under these rules as also various Court orders though Rule 15 of the Railway Services (Pension) Rules,1993 provides for adjustment of overpayment of pay and allowances from the DCRG. AIRF has also raised the issue stating that withholding of settlement dues for the purpose of recovering overpayment of wages due to wrong fixation of pay a long time ago is causing pecuniary loss and harassment to retired railway servants.

3. The matter has been examined in consultation with the Accounts Directorate, Withholding of retirement gratuity for the purpose only of assessing overpayment of pay and allowances and effecting recovery thereof is a matter of concern for the retired railway servant as it causes hardship to him/her. With a view to obviate the need of effecting recovery of overpayment of pay and allowances from the retirement gratuity, the Personnel and Accounts Departments of the Zonal Railways are advised to undertake verification of correctness of emoluments of Railway servants at regular intervals and one such review should be done in the beginning of the third year preceding the date of retirement in order that irregularities in pay and allowances, if any, are rectified and recoveries effected from the salary of the railway servant well before the retirement.

Sub: Revision of pension of pre-1996 and pre-2006 retirees with reference to corresponding pay scales.

***It has come to the notice of this office that some of the Zonal Railways, while revising pension/family

pension of pre-1996 and pre-2006 retirees w.e.f 01.01.2006, have incorrectly indicated the corresponding Vth CPC scale of pay and VIth CPC pay band & grade pay in the revised PPOs, particularly in the case of pre-revised IVth CPC pay scale of 1400-2300. In this regard, it is reaffirmed that the scale of pay/pay band [Grade Pay] corresponding to IVth CPC scale of 1400-2300 in Vth CPC CPC and VIth CPC is 4500-7000 and 5200-20200 (GP- 2800) respectively, as has also been indicated in S.No.9 of Annexure-I of Department of Pension and Pensioners Welfare (DOP & PW)’s O.M. dated 14.10.2008, circulated on the Railways vide this office letter of even number dated 18.11.2008.

Dated 11.5.2001, adopted on the Railways vide this Ministry’s letter No.F(E)III/99/PN1/20 dated 20-08-2001, pension/family pension of all pensioners irrespective of their date of retirement shall not be less than 50% /30% of the minimum of the corresponding scale as on 01.01.1996 of the scale of pay held by the pensioners at the time of retirement/death while in service. These instructions have been upheld by the Supreme Court, vide their judgement dated 23.11.2006, in the case of K.S.Krishnaswamy Vs. UOL, and this position has been brought to the notice of Zonal Railways etc., vide this office letter No.F(E)III/2004/PN1/34 dated 11.01.2007.

3. The corresponding IVth CPC, Vth CPC scales of pay and VIth CPC scales of pay/pay band & grade pay have been reiterated by the DOP&PW in their O.M. dated 14.10.2008 as subsequently modified vide O.M.

***This Deptt. has received a large number of identical representations on the above subject.

The representations are from the Government servants who had drawn lump sum payment in respect of pro-rata pension (1/3rd as well as 2/3rd) on absorption in a PSU/Autonomous Body.

2. The Government servants who had drawn lump sum payment in respect of pro-rata pension (1/3rd as well as 2/3rd) on absorption in a PSU/Autonomous Body and have become entitled to restoration of 1/3rd commuted portion of pension as per the provisions of this Department’s O.M. No.34/2/86-P&PW dated 5th March 87 after 15 years from the date of commutation or 1.4.85 whichever is later, were regulated vide this Department O.M.No.4/59/97-P&PW(D) dated 14 th July 1998 as clarified from time to time. Andhra Pradesh High Court in its judgment dated 24.12.03 in Writ Petition No.8532 of 2003 followed by Supreme Court Judgment dated 29.11.06 in Civil Appeal No.5269 of 2006 arising out of SLP Nos.21647-648 of 2005 and Supreme Court Judgment dated 24.7.07 in Review Petition No.643 of 07 had decided as under:

“…. The public sector undertaking absorbees are also entitled for dearness relief etc. but not on entire pension commuted as on the date of retirement. Moreover they received lumpsum amount by way of terminal benefits on surrendering of 2/3 rd pension. In that way, they have already parted with 2/3rd pension, it cannot be said to revive after 15 years. But, in case of Central government pensioners 2/3rd pension was continued to be received by them. Therefore, what is restored is 1/3 rd pension which

364

means full pension. But the same principle cannot be applied to say that the absorbee will get full pension after 15 years in case those who had commuted 1/3 rd pension and received terminal benefits for 2/3rd pension had he not surrendered, he continue to receive 2/3 rd pension, the same principle apply as in case of Central Government employee. But having received the cash compensation in respect of the surrender value of 2/3rd, he cannot be allowed to say that he is also a pensioner as far as 2/3rd pension is concerned. Such absorbee stand on a different footing and they fall in a different class by themselves on this issue. Under those circumstances, the inescapable conclusion is that 1/3 rd

pension has to be arrived at only on the basis of the basic pension divided by three after completion of 15 years which becomes drawable as on the date of respective dates and not to be arrived by deducting 403/- from the pension. Therefore, the petitioner will be entitled to as follows:

Restorable PensionFrom 28.06.87 to 31.12.1995Basic Pension (604/1/3rd) Total

• 201/-• 538/- Dearness Relief• 125/- additional Benefits;• 864/-

From 01.01.96 onwards(5th Pay Commission)1/3rd of Basic Pension(1,350/1/3rd)

Total• 450/-• 185/- Interim Relief• 1,998/- Dearness Relief• 540/- Fitment• 3,173/-

In this case the employee had commuted minimum permissible pension i.e. 1/3 rd. But, even if lesser portion is commuted, the pro-rata commuted portion has to be deducted from the basic pension to arrive at restorable pension, but however, he will get dearness relief, interim relief etc. on full basic pension”

3. The government had thereafter issued instructions implementing above direction of the Hon. Court vide OM dated 6.9.2007 . O.M. dated 6.9.2007 has been issued strictly in compliance of the direction of the Hon’ble Supreme Court vide operative part of judgement which has been reproduced in para 2 thereof before explaining modalities of implementation in para 3 of the above said O.M.

The decision of the court has resulted in following -• The restorable pension of the Government servants who had drawn lump sum payment in respect of pro-rata pension (1/3 rd as well as 2/3rd) on absorption in a PSU/Autonomous Body has been limited to the commuted portion only i.e. 1/3rd of pension.• The 2/3rd pension for which terminal benefits were drawn is not to be restored.• The benefits viz. DR, DP etc are taken in full while calculating restorable 1/3 rd

pension.

Further attention is drawn to following para in Hon’ble Supreme Court’s judgement dated 26.4.2000 in Appeal No.4 in W.P.(C ) No.11855/85; WPNo.(C)345/1999 and W.P.No.567/1995 in P.V.Sundara Rajan and Another Vs Union of India and others:-

“The parity claimed by Lt.Col.Malhotra and other absorbees who had commuted 100% pension, in our view, is entirely misplaced. The contention that what is commuted or given up is an amount and not the right to receive pension or right to receive post commutation revision and attendant benefits including dearness relief on the gross entitled pension on the dates they were granted to other Government pensioners, is only illusory. The decision in the case of State of Tamil Nadu and Ors. V.V.S.Balakrishnan and Ors.(1994) Suppl.3 SCC 204) on which reliance was placed by Mr.Gopal Subramanium, Senior Advocate, has no applicability to the point in issue. Those who commuted 100% pension continue to remain non-pensioners till their pension is restored. In Welfare Association case (supra), persons who commuted the full pension and who will not be given any monthly pension by deeming monthly pension to have been reduced to nil has been treated as a separate category. Those who commute 100% pension are not entitled to the benefit of dearness relief on full pension or other benefits as claimed herein. We also do not find any discrimination in so far as this class is concerned”.

All Ministries/Departments are advised that the representation, if any received on this subject, may be dealt with accordingly.

*** The undersigned is directed to say that in accordance with Rule 33 of the CCS [Pension]

Rules, for calculation of pension, the expression ‘emoluments’ means basic pay as defined in Rule 9[21] [a] [i] of the Fundamental Rules which a Government servant was receiving immediately before his retirement or on the date of his death. In accordance with Note 3 under this rule, if a Government servant immediately before his retirement or death while in service had been absent from duty on extraordinary leave or had been under suspension, the period whereof does not count as service, the emoluments which he drew immediately before proceeding on such leave or being placed under suspension shall be the emoluments for the purposes of this rule.

2. Doubts have been raised in regard to the manner in which the pension and other retirement benefits of Government servants, who were on extraordinary leave / unauthorized absence / suspension as on 01.01.2006 and retired / died thereafter without joining duty, would be regulated. The matter has been examined in consultation with the Ministry of Finance [Department of Expenditure] and the following clarifications are issued:Category of Government servant

Manner in which pension and other pensionary benefits are to be regulated

Government servant, who was on extraordinary leave /unauthorized absence – the period whereof does not count as qualifying service – as on 1.1.2006 and retired / died thereafter without joining duty.

In accordance with Rule 33 of CCS [Pension] Rules, 1972, the basic pay which he drew immediately before proceeding on such leave, shall be the emoluments for the purpose of pension. The pension/family pension thus calculated will be revised in accordance with the instructions contained in this Department’s O.M. No. 38/37/08-P&PW[A] dated 1.9.2008 and will be paid to the pensioner /family pensioner from the date it becomes due.

For the purpose of gratuity, the emoluments shall also include Dearness Allowance admissible on the date of retirement/death of the Government servant.

The pension/family pension/commutation of pension and gratuity will be regulated in accordance with the rules/instructions applicable before 1.1.2006.

This provisional pension will not be revised until the conclusion of the departmental/judicial proceedings and issue of final orders thereon.

Simultaneously, para 4 of the said O.M. also provides that the overall calculation, may take into account revised gratuity and revised pension, including arrears up to the date of revision based on these instructions and that no recoveries would be made in the cases already settled.

2. In this connection, clarification has been sought from this office as to whether in the case of employees who retired voluntarily during the period from 01.01.2006 to 01.09.2008, after getting the benefit of adding years of service, the excess payment of gratuity is to be recovered or adjusted from the arrears of pension and commuted value of additional pension arising out of implementation of the instructions contained in DOP&PW’s O.M. dated 10.12.2009 ibid. The matter has, therefore, been examined by this Ministry in consultation with DOP&PW and it is clarified that the recovery of excess payment of gratuity on the above account, shall be regulated as under:

S.No Point Clarification1 In cases where the employees retired voluntarily

after 1.1.2006 with pro-rata pension calculated for the qualifying service less than 33 years, pension will undergo upward revision and additional amount of pension will also be commutable.

Excess payment of gratuity on account of withdrawal of weightage w.e.f.01.01.06 will be adjusted against arrears of pension (and not commuted value of pension). However, this adjustment will be restricted to the amount of arrears of pension. If the recovery of gratuity is more than the amount of arrears of pension, no

372

S.No Point Clarificationrecovery in excess of arrears of pension will be made.

2 In cases where employees retired voluntarily after 1.1.2006 after getting the benefit of adding years of qualifying service and were granted pension @ 50% of emoluments/ average emoluments, as the case may be, due to their qualifying service having reached 33 years, there will be no revision in the amount of pension but the amount of retirement gratuity will undergo a change due to exclusion of the benefit of adding years of service, already extended to them.

Where there is no increase of pension, no recovery of gratuity will be made.

3. All Zonal Railways etc., are, therefore, advised to settle the cases of the employees who retired voluntarily after 01.01.2006 but before 02.09.2008, in accordance with the above clarification.

dated 25th June, 2010 Sub: Implementation of Government’s decision on the recommendations of the Sixth Central

Pay Commission – Revision of pension of pre-2006 pensioners/family pensioners etc.****

The undersigned is directed to say that in this Department’s O.M. of even number dated 21.5.2009 and 11.8.2009 it was provided that in case the’ information regarding date of birth/age is not available in the PPO or the office records, certain documents would be accepted as proof of date of birth/age for payment of additional pension/family pension on completion of age of 80 years and above. It was also provided that the Pension Disbursing Authority/Bank will make payment of additional pension/family pension in the above manner, on provisional basis, up to a period of three months from the month in which the proof of age/date of birth is submitted by the pensioner/family pensioner. In such cases, the Pension Disbursing Authority/Bank will immediately send one copy each of the document submitted by the pensioner/family pensioner to the Pay and Accounts Officer/CPAO for formal authorisation of the additional pension/family pension. The Pension Disbursing Authority/Bank will make payment of additional pension/family pension beyond a period of three months only on receipt of such an authorisation from the Pay and Account Officer.

373

2. Certain Pension Disbursing Banks to whom the documentary proof of age was submitted by the pensioners/family pensioners have informed that many Pay & Accounts Offices, to whom the same is forwarded as per OM of even number dated 21.5.2009 ,have not communicated to them their final authorisation in accordance with the above instructions. These Banks are, therefore, finding it difficult to continue the payment of additional pension beyond three months in the absence of the formal authorisation. The PAOs who are receiving the proof of age may get it sanctioned from HOO/HOD as per procedure invariably. In case the pensioner/family pensioner is unable to submit any of the documents mentioned in OMs dated 21.5.2009 and 11.8.2009 but claims additional pension based on some other documentary evidence, such cases will be submitted to the administrative Ministry. If the administrative Ministry is satisfied about the claim of the pensioner/family pensioner, it will authorise additional pension/family pension accordingly. The decision of the Administrative Ministry in this regard will be final.

3. CGA is requested to advise all Pay & Accounts Officers to take immediate action for getting the additional pension sanctioned from Head of Office/HODs so that the final authorisation of the additional pension may be done by the PAOs.

August, 1986 and the subsequent clarifications issued vide O.M. No.1/17/86-P&PW(E) dated 18th February, 1993, O.M. No.1/17/86-P&PW(C) dated 25th January, 1991 and O.M. No.1/28/04-P&PW(E) dated 31st March, 2009, detailing therein instructions concerning grant of family pension to the eligible family members of the Government servants/Pensioners who have suddenly disappeared and whose whereabouts are not known, after a period of one year, or Government servants who have been kidnapped by insurgents/ terrorists, after a period of six months, reckoned from the date of registration of the FIR with the Police Authorities.

2. The staff side of the National Council (JCM) have been raising for quite some time the issue concerning withdrawal of the mandatory condition of one year prescribed in regard to sanction of family pension to the eligible family members of the pensioners who are reported missing while on pilgrimage, tour, etc., and sanction the family pension to the eligible family members within a period of two months from the date of filing of the FIR with the police. This demand of the staff side is based on the premise that this kind of stipulation in the rules has been causing a great deal of hardship to the families of such missing pensioners.

374

3. The matter has been considered in this Department in consultation with Ministry of Finance (Department of Expenditure). It has been observed from the earlier instructions issued in this regard by this Department that the same do not make any distinction between the Government servant and the pensioners but cover both of them for the purpose of grant of family pension. It has accordingly been decided that the family pension/retirement or death gratuity to the eligible family members of a Government servant/Pensioner reported missing and whose whereabouts are not known, may be sanctioned after a period of six months from the date of registration of an FIR with the Police. This, however, would be subject to the instructions regarding grant/disbursal of retirement or death gratuity, etc., as contained in this Department’s O.M. referred to above.

*** The undersigned is directed to state that it was clarified earlier vide this Department’s

O.M.No. 1/21/91-P&PW (E) dated 20.1.1993 that the revised PPO format introduced w.e.f. 1.1.1990 contains provision for entry of details of all members of the family of the pensioner. The PPOs issued prior to 1.1.90, however, do not contain the names/ details of children of the pensioner. In cases where the names of eligible children have not been mentioned in the PPO for various reasons, the pensioner can furnish a list of eligible children to the pension sanctioning authority and obtain an acknowledgement thereof from that authority. This acknowledgment will be produced at the time of submission of family pension claim to the pension sanctioning authority. However, the production of an acknowledgment will not be a pre-condition to the processing of claim for family pension. Even the spouse of the dead Government servant/ pensioner can furnish the details of such Children, if not furnished by the Government servant/pensioner earlier, to the pension sanctioning authority as clarified vide this Department’s O.M. No. 1/21/91-P&PW (E) dt. 15.1.1999.

2. Representations have been received in this Department from Pensioners/family pensioners and Pensioners Associations indicating the reluctance on the part of Ministries/Departments/Organisations to include the names of eligible family members (i.e. widowed/divorced/unmarried daughters; parents and dependent disabled siblings (i.e. brothers and

375

sisters) in the PPO thereby delaying the sanction of family pension to such eligible family members. This is not only a source of frustration and denial of rightful claim to such eligible family members but at times causes undue hardship to them.

3. With a view to streamlining and cut delays in the pension sanctioning process, it is hereby clarified that in cases wherein eligibility of family members (i.e. divorced or widowed or unmarried daughter/ parents/ dependent disabled siblings (i.e. brothers/sisters) occurs after issue of the PPO, the pensioner himself or his/her spouse may intimate the details/ names of divorced or widowed or unmarried daughter/parents/dependent disabled siblings (i.e. brothers and sisters), to the pension sanctioning authority as per the procedure indicated in para (1) above. Similarly, in cases where the pensioner or his/her spouse has expired, the widowed or divorced or unmarried daughter/ parents/ dependent disabled sibling can themselves intimate such details to the pension sanctioning authority. However, the family pension in such cases can be processed by the pension sanctioning authority even without such intimation/acknowledgment, if sufficient proof of entitlement is produced by the claimant and all other conditions for grant of family pension are fulfilled.

connection with the revised instructions issued by the Department of Pension and Pensioners’ Welfare regarding grant of full pension to Government servants retiring on or after 01.01.2006, and its applicability to those employees who are absorbed in Public Sector Undertakings/Autonomous bodies.

2. It is informed that the Department of Pension and Pensioners’ Welfare, vide their O.M. dated 10.12.2009, circulated on the Zonal Railways etc. vide this office letter of even number dated 15.12.2009, has dispensed with the linkage of full pension with 33 years of qualifying service with effect from 01.01.2006, instead of the earlier cut off date of 02.09.2008. As such, all employees becoming entitled to pension on completion of 10 years of qualifying service in accordance with Rule 69[2] of the Railway Services [Pension] Rules, 1993, on or after 01.01.2006, are eligible for pension equal to 50% of the emoluments or average emoluments, whichever is more beneficial to them. With the issue of these instructions, the concept of pro-rata pension has ceased to exist with effect from 01.01.2006. This provision is equally applicable to those employees who have been permanently absorbed in PSUs/Autonomous Bodies and have since become entitled to monthly pension in terms of the extant instructions.

3. All the Zonal Railways etc. are, therefore, advised to settle the pending cases accordingly.

Sub: Emoluments reckoned for calculating retirement/ death benefits of staff working in the Construction Organisations.

***377

It has come to the notice of the Board that on certain Railways the retirement/death benefits of non-gazetted Railway servants, who retire from the service of Construction Organisations, are being sanctioned on the basis of higher amount of basic pay drawn by them on account of grant of higher grade posts/increments on adhoc basis than the amount of basic pay that would have been admissible had they been holding their cadre posts. This is in gross violation of the principles laid down in Board’s letter No.E(NG)i/70/SR/6/43 dated 13.3.1972. Since the higher grade posts in the Construction Organisations are granted to the Railway servants not by virtue of their seniority in their cadre, reckoning of emoluments drawn in the higher grade given on adhoc basis for retirement/death benefits is against the provisions governing “emoluments” as contained in Railway Services (Pension) Rules,1993.

2. Board has desired that all Zonal Railways must uniformly follow the practice of computing the retirement/death benefits of the Railway servants retiring from Construction Organisations on the basis of the basic pay that they would have drawn in their cadre posts as per rules. The Zonal Railways are accordingly advised to ensure that the provisions under the Pension Rules as stated above are strictly complied with. In cases of Railway servants where the retirement and death benefits have been calculated in a manner contrary to the Rule position brought out in Para 1 above, the same should be rectified by following the due procedure and recoveries effected in a phased manner so that the retired Railway servants are not put to hardships.

dated 28th September, 2010 Sub: Implementation of Government’s decision on the recommendations of the Sixth Central

Pay Commission – Revision of pension of pre-2006 pensioners/family pensioners etc.****

The undersigned is directed to say that in this Department’s O.M. of even number dated 21.5.2009 and 11.8.2009 it was provided that in case the’ information regarding date of birth/age is not available in the PPO or the office records, certain documents viz., PAN Card, Matriculation certificate, Passport, CGHS Card, Driving Licence and Voter’s ID card would be accepted as proof of date of birth/age for payment of additional pension/family pension on completion of age of 80 years and above. It was also provided that the Pension Disbursing Authority/Bank will make payment of additional pension/family pension in the above manner, on provisional basis, up to a period of three months from the month in which the proof of age/date of birth is submitted by the pensioner/family pensioner. In such cases, the Pension Disbursing Authority/Bank will immediately send one copy each of the document submitted by the pensioner/family pensioner to the Pay and Accounts Officer/CPAO for formal authorisation of the additional pension/family pension. The Pension Disbursing Authority/Bank will make payment of additional pension/family pension beyond a period of three months only on receipt of such an authorisation from the Pay and Account Officer. These instructions were reiterated in this Department’s O.M. of even number dated 25.6.2010.

2. It has been brought to the notice of this Department that, in many cases, final authorization could not be communicated by Pay & Accounts Offices to the Pension Disbursing Banks even after expiry of the stipulated period of three months from the month in which the proof of age/date of birth was submitted by the pensioner/family pensioner on account of non-receipt of sanction from the Heads of Offices.

3. Considering the hardship that is likely to be caused to the old pensioners/family pensioners due to discontinuance of additional pension by the Pension Disbursing Authority/Bank in such cases, it has been decided that where the pensioner/family pensioner has submitted any of the prescribed documents as proof of age/date of birth, etc., payment of additional pension /family pension, on provisional basis will continue to be made till 31.12.2010 or for a period of six months from the month in which the proof of age/date of birth was submitted by the pensioner/family pensioner, whichever is later. The Heads of Offices may ensure that all formalities regarding sanction may be taken up and additional pension sanctioned within the same period. In case the pensioner/family pensioner is unable to submit any of the documents mentioned in OMs dated 21.5.2009 and 11.8.2009 but claims additional pension based on some other documentary evidence, such cases will be submitted to the administrative Ministry. If the administrative Ministry is satisfied about the claim of the pensioner/family pensioner, it will authorize additional pension/family pension accordingly. The decision of the Administrative Ministry in this regard will be final.

****As per the provisions contained in para 9.3 of this Department’s OM No. 38/37/08-P&PW(A) dated 2nd

September, 2008, the revised table of commutation value for pension will be used for all commutations of pension which become absolute after the date of issue of this OM. In the case of those pensioners, in whose case commutation of pension became absolute on or after 1.1.2006 but before the issue of this OM, the pre-revised Table of Commutation value for pension will be used for payment of commutation of pension based on pre revised pay/pension. Such pensioners shall have an option to commute the amount of pension that has become additionally commutable on account of retrospective revision of pay/pension on implementation of the recommendations of the Sixth Central Pay Commission. On exercising such an option by the pensioner, the revised Table of Commutation Value for pension will be used for the commutation of the additional amount of pension that has become commutable on account of retrospective revision of pay/pension. In all cases where the date of retirement/commutation of pension is on or after 2.9.2008, the revised Table of Commutation Value for pension will be used for commutation of entire pension.

2. References have been received from various Departments seeking clarification from this Department whether the commutation value of additional pension in respect of such employees who had retired during the period between 1.1.2006 and 2.9.2008 and died before exercising option is payable to the eligible member of family or not. The issue has been examined in consultation with Ministry of Finance, Department of

Expenditure who has observed that the Pay Commissions’ intention was that the pensioner should exercise a conscious choice in view of the fact that the commutation table has changed w.e.f. 1.1.2006. As such, in these cases, the Rule 10 of CCS (Commutation of Pension) Rules, 1981 may be followed and difference in commuted value be paid without fresh applications. The intention was not to deny the higher capitalized value on account of revision of pension.
