Subject:- Clarification regarding default fee in RD and calculation of Post Maturity Interest.

Sir / Madam,

The undersigned is directed to refer to this office letter of even number dated 13.12.2011 (SB Order No.31/2011) and Corrigendum-I issued on 20.12.2011 and Corrigendum-II issued on 02.01.2012 on the subject. This office is still receiving phone calls regarding charging of default fee in RD from 1.1.2012 under modified rules and calculation of PMI. Following further clarifications are issued on the subject:-

In case of RD

Since the rule of default fee and the software have not been amended, no default fee is to be charged if the above rule is not followed till the rule and software is amended. Default fee provision will remain the same. This rules has been got modified to avoid rush of RD work in the last week of a month. Amendment in the rule for charging default fee shall be taken up with Min. of Finance once the work of putting stamps on all the RD Passbooks is completed and depositors become familiar about the change.

In case of PMI

It is further clarified that PMI is to be calculated for the complete month from the date of maturity and remaining part of the month is to be ignored. Revised example is given below:-

if an account was matured on 26.8.2009 and the depositor attends the post office on 30.01.2012, he/she will be paid PMI at the rate 3.5% from 26.08.2009 to 25.12.2011 (28 complete months) and at the rate 4% from 26.12.2011 to 25.01.2012 (one complete month). Period from 26.1.2012 to 30.1.2012 (being part of month) will be ignored.

Please clarify and write your comments....

Hi my dear Postmasters,,,,,...

                 Did you read the LSG recruitment rules? In that recruitment rules, officials who are all completed 5 years service in the pay band 5200-2400-20200 is automatically eligible to promote as LSG SPM with pay band 5200-2800-20200 without any examination. If so What my question is, If after 5 years service, without examination we are eligible for 2800 grade pay, then what is the need of writing PM Grade I without any remuneration? Will cadre restructure committee and anomaly take this issue? Give vide publicity among our Postmaster cadre friends and union secretaries who are serving as Postmaster cadre now. 

Further comments and clarification regard this would be highly appreciated.

happy republic day wishes. Jai hind

Top Eight Mistakes while conversation and interview

1. Use language that is too informal It is important to remember that you are interviewing for a job, not trying to make a new best friend. Too much familiarity can hurt your chances by making you look unprofessional. 


2. The use of words that are vague Words such as "a lot," "various/multiple" and "great deal of" are vague and don't give the interviewer the needed information. 


3. Misuse of pronouns It can be very confusing and words can be misinterpreted when pronouns are misused. Be especially alert to this when you are using the pronouns "we," "I," and "you". 


4. Using company-specific words Each company has certain terms that are indigenous only to that company. Outsiders will not know what you are talking about if you use these terms. This is especially true if you have worked for a public organization or the military. You should use as many specific words as possible in your interview so that the hiring manager knows you are familiar with your industry.. 


5. Assuming everyone knows the acronym you are using Acronyms are used at every company -- shortcuts used internally to eliminate a lot of words. Avoid using these in a interview because the hiring manager may not be familiar with the acronyms used at your current company. 


6. Describing skills by using "weak" words Beware of small words that can sabotage your credibility -- words like "pretty," "most of the time," and "kind of,". 


7. Use of few words to answer the question One pet peeve many interviewers have is not getting enough information. When a candidate answers a question with one or two words, it's impossible to make a judgment as to whether this person is the right person for the job. 


8. Talking too much -- not getting to the point When you fail to prepare for the interview, you can easily ramble and go off the subject down some other road. A rule of thumb is, "Your answers should be no longer than two to three minutes long."
