IREC Rule No.916: The Effect Of Reduced Pay On Special Contribution

916.  The Effect Of Reduced Pay On Special Contribution:-

When a subscriber, who is retained in service on reduced pay and the reduction in pay is for reasons other than his own fault, or is re-appointed on reduced pay on the abolition of his post and the break in his service, if any, has been condoned, the special contribution admissible under Rule 915 may be calculated in respect of each period of service at the rate of pay actually drawn at the end of respective periods if that is more favorable to him. For this purpose, if there be any broken period, i.e. of less than 6 months falling in the period before reduction in pay, it should not be ignored but added to the period of service rendered on the reduced pay.
