Option for Revising 7th CPC pay on Increment date is Beneficial in Rare cases

Workout before Giving Option for Revising 7th CPC Pay

Giving Option for revision of 7th CPC Pay is a must and important thing to be done by Central Government Employees in respect of implementation of 7th Pay Commission recommendations

Your 7th CPC Pay will be revised as per the Option you choose to revise your Pay

There are Two options provided in option form

1 . I ___________________________________ hereby elect the revised pay structure with effect from 1st January 2016

2. I, __________________________________ hereby elect to continue on Pay band and Grade Pay of my substantive / officiating post mentioned below until:
* the date of my next increment/the date of my subsequent increment raising my pay to Rs ________________ / I vacate or cease to draw pay in the existing pay structure / the date of my next promotion/upgradation to the post of _________________________

Normally it has been advised by the administrative Department that …

For Option -I

The Government servants those who are not getting Promotion or Upgradation between 1st January 2016 to 1st July 2016 should select No.1 Option i.e electing to revise the Pay with effect from 1.1.2016

For Option -II

The Government servants those who got Promotion / upgradation in the Period between 2st January 2016 and 1st July 2016 will have to select any one of the conditions given in Option No.2 after working out their Pay as per the choices given. Because which Option is beneficial to them is depends on the Basic Pay and Period of Service in the Pre revised Scale. The cases may vary individual to individual.

It is to be noted that one can choose to revise his pay from his next Increment date in Normal Conditions also. Because if revising the pay after granting one increment is beneficial than revising pay from 1st January 2016, he will be allowed to choose the option of I elect to continue on Pay band and Grade Pay of my substantive post until the date of my next increment.

It is observed that selecting revising pay from the Date of next increment in second Option is beneficial in rare cases.

But one important thing to be kept in mind before opting Options other than 1st January 2016

In all Options other than 1st January 2016 YOU SHOULD BE READY TO FORGO ARREARS FOR THE PERIOD FROM 1ST JANUARY TO THE DATE YOU SELECT TO REVISE YOUR PAY.

If you are ready to forego arrears, then you calculate your pay on 1st January 2016 and 1st July 2016 with an increment and select which one is beneficial to you and go according to that.

How to calculate in normal conditions if there is no promotion involved…

A. As on 1.1.2016

Your Basic Pay x 2.57
And Select the Cell same or nearest Higher to this amount arrived at in corresponding Level

B. As on 1.7.2016 after One Increment in sixth CPC

Your Basic Pay x 2.57
And Select the Cell same or nearest Higher to this amount arrived at in corresponding Level

If A is Higher than B, you can select No. 1 option i.e Revising the Pay with effect from 1st January 2016
If B is Higher than A , You can select the date of my next increment Date in Option no.2. i.e Revising the Pay with effect from 1st July 2016

While choosing the option, one should also keep in mind the date of increment which will be 01 Jan 2017 for employees promoted or granted financial upgradation between 02 Jan 16 and 01 Jul 16. Lets say a employee is promoted from GP 4200 to 4600 on 15 Mar 16 and he chooses to get his pay fixed from 01 Jan 16. on 15 Mar he will get one promotional increment and he will move to S 7. Thereafter, he/she will get next increment on 01 Jan 17. If the same employee chooses to get his pay fixed from 01 Jul 16 (this is the date he got two increment in previous scale ) then also he will get his increment on 01 Jan 17. Now the catch here is that although the employee will be fixed on higher basic pay on 01 Jul 16 but he will not be entitled to arrear for past six months. For both these options, next date of increment will be 01jan 17 and will yield the same amount of increment. So one must choose the option wisely after proper calculation.

in pay band 437400-67000 +GP 8700 for basic 56740. fixation 56740 x 2.56 = 15821.56740 is 7th increment stage in 6th PC. 7th increment stage in 7th PC is 14800, hence it will go next cell 150200 and person retired in Jan 2016, his basic Pension. In case person retired on 31.12.2015, with same basic of 56740, his basic pension 56740/2=28370 and fitment factor 28370= 72910, 7th increment stage is 145800 hence basic pension is 72900. Therefore revisic basic pension is 72910. The person retired with same basic 56740 with same 7 increment will get basic pension of 75100, creating an anomoly and loss to person retired before Jan 2016. Will any body look into it to rectify the same.

My basic on 31 Dec 15 was 12840 / gp-2800 in PB 1 and on 1st Jan 16 due to promotion basic pay changed to 13460 / gp 4200 in PB 2. How my pay will be fixed in 7th CPC / What option will be benefitted for me

My PB pay on 1/1/16 is 27340 and GP is 6600 and i am eligible for MACP on 17/3/2016. As per the calculation if I opt for new pay w .e.f. 1/7/16 and also opts for fixation on 1/7/16, it seems to be beneficial on 1/7/16. please advise

I joined after 1 Jan in the VI cpc and didn't get any increment in that july and as a result I am one increment behind from those who joined before Jan. Will we get any benefit by choosing date of increment on January?

I think, the comparison is not correct. In all the cases, the pay arrived after considering one increment as on 1.7.2016 multiplied by 2.57 will be more than that the amount arrived as on 1.1.2016. Please check as per the following:


A. As on 1.1.2016

Your Basic Pay x 2.57
And Select the Cell same or nearest Higher to this amount arrived at in corresponding Level and find the pay in the one cell down i.e. after considering the increment in the new pay structure on 1.7.2016.

B. As on 1.7.2016 after One Increment in sixth CPC

Your Basic Pay x 2.57
And Select the Cell same or nearest Higher to this amount arrived at in corresponding Level

If A is Higher than B, you can select No. 1 option i.e Revising the Pay with effect from 1st January 2016
If B is Higher than A , You can select the date of next increment Date in Option no.2. i.e Revising the Pay with effect from 1st July 2016
Thank you.
