respect of Type-I to Type-IV categories of accommodation irrespective of the
Central/Non-Central /area in all metropolitan cities except Mumbai for which
separate rates have been given in the Annexure.
3. The revised rates being notified vide this OM shall be
effective from 1st January 2013 and will be valid till 31.3.2014 or till
further orders. The rates of damages will automatically get revised as and
when the rate of normal licence fee under FR 45-A is revised. In cases, where
higher rates have been charged between 1st January 2013 till notification of
new rates, the same may be adjusted/refunded.
4. In respect of other departmental pools of accommodation in
Delhi/other stations, the rates of damages prescribed for GPRA shall be
