Subject: – Revision of pension of pre-2006 pensioners etc. for faculty and other staff of Centrally Funded Technical Institutions (CFTs).

Sir,

I am directed to refer to this Department’s order of even dated 25th May 2010 on the subject mentioned above. Representations were received requesting that the minimum pension of pre-2006 ie. pensioners who retired prior to 01.01.2006 should be at least 50% of entry pay prescribed for each level in the relevant pay band plus the Grade Pay.

2. The Department of Pension & Pensioners’ Welfare was consulted in the matter who have held the view that the pension of the pre-2006 pensioners ie. who retired prior to 1.1.2006 may be fixed following the principles laid down in Para 4.2 of the Department of Pension & Pensioners’ Welfare OM No. 38/37/08-P&PW (A) dated 1.9.2008 as clarified vide their OM dated 3.10.2008. This was mentioned in this Department’s order of even number dated 25.05.2010.

3. Department of Pension & Pensioners have further informed that several representations were received from pre-2006 pensioners requesting for higher pensionary benefit. These representations were considered by that Department in consultation with Ministry of Finance but could not be agreed to. Accordingly the representations received from Central Government pensioners stood disposed of vide that depanment’s OM No. F 38/37/08-P& PW (A) dated 11.2.2009 and dated 19.3.2010. Hence, the requests received from pensioners of various Centrally Funded Technical Institutions like IITs, etc, can not be agreed to.

4. Hence all the institutions are requested to fix the pension of pre-2006 pensioners ie. who retired prior to 1.1.2006 as per the order of this Department dated 25.05.2010 Any deviation made in the matter of grant of pension resulting in over payment made may be adjusted from subsequent pension payment.

Revision in Time Scale Promotion and Restructuring of posts in Select Ranks in Military Nursing Service (MNS) approved

By
igeadmin
-
The Union Cabinet today approved the proposal of cadre restructuring of Military Nursing Services (MNS). The proposal approved by the Cabinet includes:-

  • Upgradation of 74 posts of Lt Col (Time Scale) to the rank of Lt. Col (Select) and above. Now, there will be 2 Major Generals, 18 Brigadiers, 58 Colonels and 157 Colonels (Select) in MNS.
  • Revision of service criteria in the Time Scale promotion in the non Select Rank up to the rank of Lieutenant Colonel (Time Scale) will be as follows : Captain- 3 years (from existing 5 years); Major – 8 years (from existing 12 years) and Lt.Col.(TS) – 16 years (from existing 20 years).
  • Qualifying service for Lieutenant Colonel (Select) rank by Selection Board revised from the existing 18 years to 14 years.

The decision will reduce stagnation in the various ranks of Military Nursing Service by increasing the number of select appointments. It will also help in retaining competent and qualified nursing officers in service by providing adequate opportunities for career progression.

Background:

The last cadre review of Military Nursing Service was carried out in the year 1986. The authorized strength of MNS cadre is 3860 and there are only 161 select rank posts in the MNS cadre. There is a steep pyramidal structure at higher select ranks. An MNS officer is able to pick up the select appointment in the rank of Lieutenant Colonel approximately after 26-28 years of service, when she is around 46-48 years of age. On account of limited number of vacancies, arising out of superannuation, there is large scale supersession of many deserving nursing officers (both specialised and non-specialised) in the Promotion Boards for promotion to higher ranks. Apart from causing de-motivation among these nursing officers, non-selection for promotion also leads to seeking premature retirement by such experienced nursing officers. To retain such qualified and trained nursing offices, it has been considered necessary to improve promotional avenues at all levels so as to mitigate the hardship of nursing officers by increasing the number of posts in select grade appointments within the overall strength of cadre.

Income Tax exemption limit proposed from 1.6 lakh to Rs 2 lakh

By
igeadmin
-

The Union Cabinet on Thursday approved a new set of direct tax rules that proposes to raise income tax exemption limit from 1.6 lakh to 2 lakh, leaving more money in the hands of individuals, and a lower tax rate for companies.

The much-awaited Direct Taxes Code, or DTC, Bill, which seeks to replace the nearly 50-year-old income tax law, is likely to be introduced in Parliament on Monday and may then be referred to a select committee of members of both houses of Parliament.

The basic exemption limit is proposed to be raised to 2 lakh from the current 1.6 lakh and corporate tax rate for both domestic and foreign companies proposed is at 30%, finance minister Pranab Mukherjee said after the meeting of the Union Cabinet.

Senior citizens and women will enjoy a higher exemption of up to 2.5 lakh. There will be no surcharge or cess on companies, thereby bringing the corporate tax rate to 30% from present 34%.

The new code proposes three income tax slabs—income of up to 2-5 lakh will face 10%, 5-10 lakh will attract 20% and income over 10 lakh will face tax at the rate of 30%. The housing loan exemption of 1.5 lakh would also be available to individual taxpayers on the interest component.

“The whole objective is that a plethora of exemptions will be limited. Income tax slabs will be three. Rate of taxes will be taken in the schedule so that they need not be changed every year,” Mr Mukherjee said.

“Once the tax rates are part of the code itself, it would provide guidance and stability as to short to mid-term tax rates vis-a-vis current situation wherein tax rates could undergo a change on a year-on-year basis,” said Vikas Vasal, executive director, KPMG.

The new changes in the tax rates, expected to come into effect from April 1, 2011, could lead to some loss in revenue and raise the government’s deficit.

However, the government proposes to raise the minimum alternate tax (MAT) on book profits to 20% from current 18%. The move will be a big blow for Reliance and a host of IT and infrastructure companies that pay MAT.

Ficci general secretary Amit Mitra welcomed the proposal. “We are assuming that this rate of tax is a proposed cap and corporate tax would not exceed 30%. Any cess or surcharge should be subsumed within this 30%,” he said. He further added that at this rate, the Indian corporate tax is moving closer to the rate prevailing in Asean countries, which is again a positive direction for direct taxes.

However, some industry honchos were not happy as they expected much lower rates if exemptions are being withdrawn. Jindal Stainless vice-chairman & MD Ratan Jindal said the proposed rate of 30% is good, but the industry was looking for lower rates of around 25%.

“Hopefully the government will consider bringing down corporate tax at about 20-25 % in the coming years. If more money is put in the hands of the industry, it can be ploughed back for further investment and expansion purposes.”
