Guidelines for Central government
Staff check over Increment Drawn every years
Some of the employees are having
doubts about eligible of increment, in case of remaining on leave as on 1st
July of every year, (Annual increment date). To clear those doubts, some
guidelines are given below for the awareness of the Central Government Staff,
regarding drawing of increment in case of remaining on leave on 1st July every
Year.
i. Drawl
of increment after 6th CPC Implementation
With effect from 01-01-2006,
Increment is drawn at the rate of 3% per year on pay +Grade Pay,
drawn by the official in the previous year. For getting this Increment, 6
Months Service from 1st July to 30th June to next year is needed. So, officials
availing more than 6th months EXOL without Medical certificate and remaining under suspension, not regularized as duty, will
not get increment as on 1st July. Therefore staffs are advised to see that
increment drawn, in case of six months eligible service rendered by them from
1st July of last year, to 30th June of next year.
ii. When increment will be drawn in case of officials availing
leave on 1st July of the year?
Officials are going on leave
during first July, without knowing that Increment will be drawn to them, only
on return from leave. The period of leave admissible for getting increment, and
not admissible, are given in the table below.
|
Period of leave eligible for
drawl of increment on 1st July
|
An
officials availing following kinds of leave during increment on 1st July
not eligible for drawn increment
|
|
1.Casual
Leave (CL)
|
1.Earn Leave
(EL)
|
|
2.Restricted
Holiday (RH)
|
2. Leave not
due (LND)
|
|
3. Child
Care Leave (CCL)
|
|
|
4. Paternity Leave (PL)
|
|
|
5. EXOL
(With and Without Medical Certificate)
|
|
|
6. Commuted
Leave (With and Without Medical Certificate)
|
|
|
7.Half Pay
Leave (HPL)
|
For
Example: If an
official preceded on Earn leave (EL) / Commuted Leave / Half Pay Leave (HPL),
and EXOL with Medical certificate from first July of the Year, he will
get his increment, after period of the leave, on the date of rejoining. On 1th
July of that year, suppose he processed 45 days of any kind of leave, he will
get his increment only on 15th August of that Year. Therefore, it is advisable
to be on duty on 1st July, and to proceed on Leave, after 1st July of any year.
From the below illustration, if
an employee was on EL for 45 days from 11-06-2015 to 25-07-2015 and reported to
duty on 26-07-2015, increment will be drawn as follows:
From 11-06-2015 to 25-07-2015 →
pay and allowances will be drawn @Rs.10000+2400 =12400 as leave salary
From 26-07-2015 to 31-07-2015 →
pay and allowances will be drawn @ Rs.10380+ 2400=Rs.12780 (by adding due
increment of 3% after return from leave)
For services rendered for 6
months of qualifying service in a post, between the period from 1st July of previous
year and 30th June of the current year, i.e from the date of last drawl of
increment in the previous year, Increment can be drawn on 1st July.
i. Effect
of dies non period and EXOL without Medical Certificate
Period’s dies non, and availed
EXOL without medical Certificate, those periods could not be counted as
eligible qualifying service for getting increment, as per rules. Therefore,
staff are advised to avail EXOL with on Medical Certificate only, as much as
possible up to the limited period of 6 months, if not, they will lose increment
as on 1st July, and they are able to get their next increment only on 1st July
of Next Year. Therefore, all officials joining newly or promoted to higher
posts, should avail EXOL on Medical Certificate (or) should not be absent
without sanction off leave by the leave sanctioning authority so as to avoid
avoiding dies non for the period 1st January to 30th June of that year.
ii.
Determination of increment amount every year
Increment is drawn on 1st July of
every year, which causes increase in the Pay and Grade Pay last drawn as on
30th June. If the amount arrived is one and above, it will be raised to
next ten rupees. In case, if it is less than one rupee, the increase will be ignored and the round figure arrived by 3% increase, will be shown as
increment.
iii.
Giving option for drawl increment on getting promotion before increment date
The officials given option for
fixing of their promotional pay,after accrual of increment on 1st July, they
should see that two increments are drawn on 1st July (Annual increment) and
another three percentage increase (as notional increment for promotional
purpose)
Illustration:
A government servant is drawing
pay of Rs.10000+2400 as Grade Pay in the Pay Band I 5200-20200+2400 with effect
from 01-01-2014. He was promoted to higher post carrying Grade Pay of Rs 2800
and involving higher responsibility, in the same Pay Band, on 15-01-2015 and he
exercised option to fix his promotional pay.
In this case, his pay will be fixed as follow.
