Productivity Linked Bonus for Railway Employees approved

The Union Cabinet today approved the proposal of the Ministry of Railways for payment of Productivity Linked Bonus (PLB) equivalent to 77 days’ wages for the financial year 2009-2010 for all eligible non-gazetted Railway employees.

The financial implication of payment of 77 days’ PLB to Railway employees has been estimated to be Rs.1065.42 crore. The wage calculation ceiling prescribed for payment of PLB to the eligible employees is Rs.3500/ p.m.

About 12.92 lakh non-gazetted Railway employees are likely to benefit from the decision.

This will be the highest PLB payment ever to be made by Railways. PLB is based on the productivity indices reflecting the performance of the Railways.

Allowing vigilance functionaries on deputation to CPSEs the option to draw pay either in the CPSEs pay scale or pay in the parent cadre

The Cabinet has approved the proposal of the Department of Public Enterprises to the effect that CVOs and other officers on deputation to the Vigilance Departments of CPSEs may be allowed the option of electing to draw either the pay in the scale of pay of the CPSE concerned or pay in the parent cadre plus deputation (duty) allowance and personal pay, if any.

The CVOs and other officers on deputation to the Vigilance Departments in CPSEs will also be allowed all the perks, benefits and perquisites applicable to equivalent level of officers in concerned CPSEs.

The CVOs and the vigilance functionaries will be able to work effectively and this will remove disparity in pay between the deputationists and employees of the CPSEs. This will also attract suitable officers/talent to vigilance departments of CPSEs.

OFFICE MEMORANDUM

Sub: Implementation of Government’s decision on the recommendations of the Sixth Central Pay Commission – Revision of pension of pre-2006 pensioners/family pensioners etc

The undersigned is directed to say that in this Department’s O.M. of even number dated 21.5.2009 and 11.8.2009 it was provided that in case the information regarding date of birth/age is not available in the PPO or the office records, certain documents , viz. PAN Card, Matriculation certificate, Passport, CGHS Card, Driving licence and Voter’s ID Card, would be accepted as proof of date of birth/age for payment of additional pension/family pension on completion of age of 80 years and above. It was also provided that the Pension Disbursing Authority/Bank will make payment of additional pension/family pension in the above manner, on provisional basis, up to a period of three months from the month in which the proof of age/date of birth is submitted by the pensioner/family pensioner. In such cases, the Pension Disbursing Authority/Bank will immediately send one copy each of the document submitted by the pensioner/family pensioner to the Pay and Account Officer/CPAO for formal authorisation of the additional pension/family pension. The Pension Disbursing Authority/Bank will make payment of additional pension/family pension beyond a period of three months only on receipt of such an authorisation from the Pay and Account Officer. These instructions were reiterated in this Department’s O.M. of even number dated 25.6.2010.

2. It has been brought to the notice of this Department that, in many cases, final authorisation could not be communicated by Pay & Accounts Offices to the Pension Disbursing Banks even after expiry of the stipulated period of three months from the month in which the proof of age/date of birth was submitted by the pensioner/family pensioner on account of non-receipt of sanction from the Heads of Offices.

3. Considering the hardship that is likely to be caused to the old pensioners/family pensioners due to discontinuance of additional pension by the Pension Disbursing Authority/Bank in such cases, it has been decided that where the pensioner/family pensioner has submitted any of the prescribed documents as proof of age/date of birth, etc., payment of additional pension/family pension, on provisional basis, will continue to be made till 31.12.2010 or for a period of six months from the month in which the proof of age/date of birth was submitted by the pensioner/family pensioner, whichever is later. The Heads of Offices may ensure that all formalities regarding sanction may be taken up and additional pension sanctioned within the same period. In case the pensioner/family pensioner is unable to submit any of the documents mentioned in OMs dated 21.5.2009 and 11.8.2009 but claims additional pension based on some other documentary evidence, such cases will be submitted to the administrative Ministry. If the administrative Ministry is satisfied about the claim of the pensioner/family pensioner, it will authorise additional pension/family pension accordingly. The decision of the Administrative Ministry in this regard will be final.

Patna, Ropar

Sir,

I am hereby directed to inform you that after due consideration the Ministry has taken the following decisions with regard to grant of TA/DA and payment of special allowance :-

A. Grant of special allowance. Dy. Directors/Wardens etc.

Keeping in view the Special Allowance of Rs.4000/- prescribed for Pro- Vice Chancellor, Ministry has suggested vide it is letter dated 9th March,2010 that the Dy. Directors may be paid a monthly special allowance of Rs.4000/- per month. Accordingly, it has been felt that the honorarium for Deans, Wardens etc. may be suitably revised keeping in view the existing norms. Accordingly, honorarium/special allowances in respect of Dy. Directors, Deans, Wardens etc. will be as under:-

Existing Proposed revision
Dy.Director Rs.1000/ p.m. Rs.4000/- p.m.
Deans Rs.900/ p.m. Rs.3500/- p.m.
Wardens Rs.800/ p.m. Rs.2500/- p.m.
Assoc./Asstt. Wardens Rs.500/ p.m. Rs.2500/- p.m.

B. Eligibility for TA/DA with reference to Academic Grade Pay:

The recommendation with regard to the question of equivalence of Academic Grade Pay with Grade Pay for the purpose of determining the eligibility for TA/DA and other benefits also requires a re-look. Even though acadehic grade pay has been fixed slightly at a higher level than the grade pay fixed for similar grade of Central Government employees, the entitlement for TA/DA and other allowances would be governed by the provision of the CCS (RP) Rules,2008 as per the TNDA entitlement for corresponding Grade Pay. Accordingly, the following mapping of academic grade pay with grade pay is required to be followed for the purpose of determining eligibility for TA/DA and other allowances:

Sl.No. Academic Grade Pay Equalent Grade Pay for TA/DA/Other Allowances
1 Rs.6000 & Rs.7000/- Rs.6600/-
2 Rs.8000/- Rs.7600/-
3 Rs.9000/- Rs.8700/-
4 Rs.9500/- Rs.8900/-
5 Rs.10000 / 10500/- Rs.10000/-

C. HAG Scale of Rs.67,000 – 79,000/- :

A new HAG scale of Rs.67,000-79,000 has been introduced in place of Grade Pay of Rs.12,000/-. Accordingly, the Grade Pay of Rs.12,000/- does not any more exist .

The conditions for moving to the new HAG scale will remain exactly the same as the movement from AGP of Rs.10,500/-to AGP of Rs.12,000/-. Further, as indicated in this Ministry’s letter of even number, dated 18.8.2010, this will have prospective effect from the date of issue of orders regarding revision of scales of pay, i.e. 18.8.2009.

This issues with the approval of Secretary (HE).

Yours faithfully
