RBE No. 213/1988: Fixation of Pay – Promoted on 01.01.1986

No.PC-IV/86/FOP/2, dated 19.09.1988

Sub: Railway services (Revised pay) Rules, 1986 – Clarification regarding fixation of pay on appointment/ promotion taking place on 01.01.1986.

A question has been raised as to how to fix the pay under the RS(RP) Rules, 1986, in cases of Railway servants appointed/ promoted to another post including appointment in Selection Grade exactly on 01.01.1986. It is clarified that pay in such cases should first be fixed in the revised scale of pay of the post held on 01.01.1986 with reference to the pay in the pre revised scale of that post and then fixed in the promoted post under Rule 2018-B [FR 22-C] R.II with effect from 01.01.1986 or Rule 2017(a)(ii) [FR 22(a)(ii)] R.II as the case may be. The same procedure should be followed in cases where a Railway servant opts for revised scale of pay from the date of next or subsequent increment and appointment to another post also happens to be on the same date.
