Subject: Stepping
up of pay of senior member of All India Service vis-a-vis pay of his junior in
the cadre — regarding.
Sir,
I am
directed to say that references from various State Governments regarding
anomalies in the pay of senior members of All India Services vis-a-vis pay of
their juniors in the cadre who have been promoted to the Service or to a higher
grade in the Service subsequent to the seniors, have been engaging attention of
this Department.
2. The matter has been examined with reference to
the existing instructions of the Government on this subject and it is stated
that such anomalies on account of fixation of pay on promotion, including the
promotion from State service to All India Services, can be solved by stepping
up the pay of the senior member of Service at par with the pay of the junior in
the cadre from the date when the anomaly arose, subject to fulfilment of
following conditions:
(i) Both
junior and senior should belong to the same cadre both in lower and higher
grade. In the case of anomaly in the pay of officers promoted from State
service to IAS/IPS/IFS in a State cadre, both junior and senior should belong
to same cadre in the State Service (lower grade).
(ii)
Anomaly must have arisen as a result of fixation of pay either on promotion
from one grade to another in IAS/IPS/IFS or on promotion from State service to
IAS/IPS/IFS, as the case may be.
(iii)
Posts in higher and lower grade must be identical and in lower grade senior
must not be drawing less pay than junior for whatsoever reasons.
For
example if the junior officer draws higher rate of pay than the senior in the
lower post or State service post by virtue of advance increments or on any
other account, the above provisions will not be invoked to step up the pay of
the senior officer.
Yours
faithfully
