Subject: Applicability of minimum pay/stepping
up of pay – clarification reg.
1.A reference has been received from one of the
Railways mentioning a case where an employee working as Accounts Clerk was
promoted as Junior Accounts Assistant (GP Rs. 2800) after 01.01.2006 and his pay
was fixed as per Rule 13 of Railway Services (Revised Pay) Rules, 2008 by adding
3% of Basic Pay and Grade Pay On a subsequent date another employee (Junior to
him) was appointed as Junior Accounts Assistant (GP Rs. 2800) through Direct
Recruitment and his pay was fixed under Section II of Part-A of First Schedule
of Railway Services (Revised Pay) Rules, 2008 which happened to be more than
that of the above senior. A doubt has been raised whether stepping up of pay may
be allowed in such cases to the senior employee who got promoted as Jr. Accounts
Assistants (GP Rs. 2800) after 01.01.2006
vis-à-vis his junior who was directly recruited
on a subsequent date as Junior Accounts Assistant (GP Rs. 2800) subject to
fulfillment of conditions as laid down in Para 5 of Ministry of Railway’s letter
No.PC-Vl/2010/I/RSRP/1 dated 17.02.2010.
2. The issue has been examined in consultation
with Ministry of Finance and it is clarified that pay of Senior employee
promoted to a post after 01 .01.2006 may be stepped up vis-à-vis his junior who
was directly recruited on a subsequent date to the same post subject to the
condition that they belong to the same seniority list for all purposes and
various conditions as laid down in Board’s letter of even number dated
17.02.2010 are fulfilled.
3. This issues with the concurrence of the
Finance Directorate of the Ministry of Railways.
