Subject: 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

references 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

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 or 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.

  

6. This issues with the concurrence of the Finance Directorate of the Ministry of Railways.
