To,
        The Honorable Chief Postmaster General,
        Tamilnadu Circle,
        Chennai 600002.

Respected sir,

        Subject : Request to implement the directorate orders to promote the Postmaster Grade officials under one time relaxation -reg
Ref : Directorate letter No. 04-43/2013-SPB-II dated at Dak Bhavan, Sansad Marg, New Delhi the 28.04.2016

         Vide above reference directorate order, it is ordered to promote the Postmaster Grade officials in the following manner as a onetime measure on 28th April 2016.

Sl. No

        Even after the lapses of 3 months, because of not implementing the above directorate order many of the postmaster cadre officials are in severe loss while exercising the pay fixation options as per the Revised Pay rules 2016 without promotional hike.

        One illustrative example for the basic pay hike with and without promotions is produced below to get the due attention of the circle administration.


Promoting the official from PM1 to PM2 on or before 25.7.16
(amount in figures)
Promoting the official from PM 1 to PM2 after 25.7.16
(amount in figures)
Before 25.7.16 old basic pay =
11430
After 25.7.16 Pay
[(11430+2800)*2.57] =
36571
Grade Pay =
2800
Fixing in the L5 (G.P Rs2800) =
37000
Getting PM Grade II promotion within 25.7.16
11430 + G.P Rs.4200 =
15630
Getting PM Grade II promotion one increment (next cell in L-5 G.P Rs2800) =
38100
One notional increment
15630 * 3%=
16100
Fixing in level – 6 of G.P Rs.4200 (PM Grade II) =
38700
Multiplying with fitment forumula 2.57*16100=
41377


Fixing in Level 6 as per the G.P of Rs.4200 for PM GrII
42300


Total loss in pay itself Rs42300-Rs38700 = 3600

        The above illustrative tables is only to the Basic Pay loss, if proportionate loss is calculated to the DA and HRA promotion due postmasters might have affected with nearly Rs.5000 loss per month. Because of the severe loss, this association is receiving so many objections from the staff side and Postmaster cadre officials might have loss nearly Rs.5000 per month for lengthy 10 years till the next pay commission.

So this association is requesting the hon’ble Chief Postmaster general to promote the Postmaster Grade officials on war foot basis and once again fresh option may kindly be asked to exercise the new pay rules 2016 after the above said promotions since delay is occurred because of the administrative procedures not because of the official side.

A line in reply would be highly solicited.

Triplicane
02.08.2016                                                             Yours faithfully,



                                                                              (K. Ayyavoo)

No annual increment for non-performing employees: Government

Non-performing Central government employees will not get annual increment if their performance is not upto the mark, the Centre has said. 

The benchmark for performance appraisal for promotion and financial upgradation has been enhanced to "very good" from "good" level, the Finance Ministry said in an order notifying implementation of Seventh Central Pay Commission's recommendations. 

Not appropriate to compare the 7th panel with previous ones

The government said it is "not appropriate" to compare the increase in minimum pay suggested by the 7th Central Pay Commission with that of the previous commissions. 

According to the 7th Pay Commission, the real increase given in 1996 and 2006 in minimum pay was 31 per cent and 51 per cent. As compared to that, the commission recommended an increase of 14.29 per cent.
