The following clarifications have been issued by Department of Personnel and Training vide Memo No 35034/3/2008-Estt (D) dated 9.9.2010:-
1 Whether the Pay Band would change in the hierarchy of Pay
Bands & Grade Pay on grant of the benefits under MACPS'
Yes. The upgradations under MACP is to be granted in the
next grade pay in the hierarchy of recommended revised pay band and
grade pay as prescribed in the CCS (RP) Rules, 2008
2 Whether the benefits of MACPS would be allowed to the
Government servants who have been later on inducted in the Organized Group
"A" Service
No. The benefits under MACPS is not applicable to Group
'A' officer of Organized Group 'A' Services, as the
officer under Organized Group 'A' Services have already been. allowed parity
of two years on nonfunctional basis with the officers of Indian
Administrative Service (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-l of MACPS is only for
exercising option for coming over to the revised pay
structure and not for grant of benefits under MACPS. The 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 Rs.4000-6000: 01.10.1982
1st ACP granted on 09.08.1999 :Rs.4500-7000 (pre-revised)
2nd ACP due on 01.10.2006 :Rs.5000-8000 (pre-revised)
[revised PB-2 Grade Pay of Rs.4200]
3rd financial upgradation under the MACPS would be due on
01.102012 (on completion of30 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 Rs 4600 in PB 2.
(B) In the case of normal promotional hierarchy:
Date of appointment in entry Grade in the prerevised pay
scale of Rs.5500-9000: 01.10.1982
1st ACP granted on 09.08.1999 :Rs.6500-10500
(pre-revised)
2nd ACP due on 01.10.2006 (as
per the existing hierarchy) :Rs.10000-15200
(pre-revised).
Therefore, 2nd ACP would be in PB-3 with Grade Pay of
Rs.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 Rs.7600.
4 Whether the benefits of MACPS would be granted from the date
of entry grade or from the date of the 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 period 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 carrying by a Government servant on account of financial upgradation(s) under 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 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-I of MACPS referred).
8 In a case where the government servant have already earned
three promotions and still stagnated in one grade for more than 10 years,
whether he would be entitle for any further upgradation under MACPS No. Since the government servant has already earned three
promotions, he would not be entitled for any further financial upgradation
under MACPS.
9 Whether the pre-revised pay scale of Rs 2750-4400 in respect
of Group D non-matriculate employees, would also be taken as merged to grade pay of Rs 1800 for the purpose of MACPS in view of merger of Rs 2550-3200,Rs 2610-3540, Rs 2610-4000 and Rs 2650-4000, which have been upgraded and replaced by the revised pay structure of grade pay of Rs 1800 in the pay band PB-1 Yes.
10 If a government servant on deputation earns upgradation
under MACPs in the present 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 rs 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-I of MACPS, the
pay of such Group 'D' employees who have been placed in the Grade Pay of Rs
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.

Govt employees near retirement should not be disturbed: CAT
New Delhi, Sep 5 (PTI) The Central Administrative Tribunal has held that government employees on the verge of superannuation should not be disturbed merely because they have stayed for a considerably long period at a particular place.
The apex tribunal said that such a benefit should be extended to superannuating employees to retire peacefully at a particular place after years of dedicated service.
"Merely because the applicants have a long stay and the transfer order could not be implemented so far would not by itself constitute sufficient reason.
"There is an objective based on considerations of welfare behind such provision in the transfer policy as it would enable a person about to retire after a long and devoted service to make arrangements for settling down thereafter with his family, acquire a house if not already done," Member N D Dayal said.
