PREFACE Consequent on the recommendation of the 5th Pay Commission and enhancement of Pay & Allowances of PBOR w.e.f. 1.1.96 & 10.10.97 (Pay) and 1.8.97(allowances), there was a growing need for a Compendium of Orders on Pay & Allowances of PBOR, which can be consulted effortlessly for any clarification. Working in that direction a PBOR Hand Book was published by CDA, Bangalore on 01.01.2001. The 1st edition of the Hand Book received on overwhelming response from all the users. Thereafter, many Govt.Orders/Instructions were issued introducing ACP Scheme for PBOR, revising the allowances, clarifying classification of trades, etc. Shri Virendra Diwan, IDAS, CDA therefore, desired to publish an enlarged and revised edition by incorporating the latest orders on P&A of PBOR. Accordingly under his able guidance, a team of Officers & Staff of ORs Cell of CDA, Bangalore has made concerted efforts in updating this revised and enlarged edition. I gratefully acknowledge and thank Shri Virendra Diwan, IDAS, CDA for his valuable advice and unstinted support for bringing out this 2nd enlarged & revised edition. I am sure that this Hand Book will be of immense use to the department as well as to the units/formations and PBOR. I take this opportunity to compliment the Officers & Staff of ORs Cell of CDA Bangalore, in particular Shri M.R.Krishna & Smt.Vidyavathi, AAOs, Smt.Valsamma. T. Varghese and Shri L. Bheesma Sr. Auditors for their efforts in bringing out this edition. I also place on record the enormous efforts made by Shri.G.B.R.Prasad,SAO (Retd),Shri.Y.Babu,SAO(EDP),and Shri Reghunathan,AAO who brought out the 1st edition. The matter presented in this Hand Book is not an exact reproduction of the rules & regulations as notified by the Govt.

After the existing emoluments have been arrived at, the pay shall be fixed in the revised scale at the stage next above the amount so arrived. If the minimum of the Revised Scale w.e.f. 1.1.96 is more, the pay will be fixed at the minimum of the Revised Scale. If the amount arrived as above is more than the maximum of the Revised Scale, the Pay will be fixed at maximum. In this type of cases, the difference shall be allowed as personal pay to be absorbed in future increases in Pay (Para 7 (f) of AI 1/S/98) Date of Next Increment in the Revised Scale effective from 1.1.96. (i) The next increment of JCOs/NCO s/ORs whose pay is fixed in the normal manner will be granted on the date he would have drawn his increment, had he continued in the existing scale. However, in the case of Bunching and stepping up cases the next increment will be granted on completion of 12 months qualifying service from the date on which his pay was stepped up in the revised scale. [Authy: Para 9 of AI 1/S/98] (ii) A JCO/NCO/OR drawing the maximum in the existing scale for more than one year as on1st Jan 1996 shall be allowed the next increment in the revised scale with effect from 1.1.1996.

ASSURED CAREER PROGRESSION (ACP) SCHEME FOR PBOR „Hand Book on Pay & Allowances‟ 16 Effective w.e.f. 07.08.2003 Sepoys and equivalent will be granted first financial up-gradation in the pay scale of NK and equivalent after completion of ten years of service. The second financial up-gradation of ACP will come into effect to the scale of Hav and equivalent on completion of twenty years of qualifying service. The PBOR may exercise option within one month of grant of ACP for fixation of his pay in the pay scale of Naik/Hav from the date of next increment in the existing scale, that date is to be indicated in the Part II order under “TO DATE” in col. 4.see- Appendix J format item 149 and 150. Points to be seen while granting ACP Scheme. 1.ACP DO II effective from 7.8.2003. 2.First financial upgradation to NK Scale after completion of ten years of service if no regular promotion granted during that period. Service is counted from the Date of Enrolment. PBOR should have been attested. 3.Second financial up gradation to Hav Scale after completion of 20 years service provided no regular promotions availed during the prescribed period. 4. If a PBOR already got one regular promotion, second financial up gradation is due on completion of 20 years service, under the ACP Scheme. 5.If two regular promotions already granted during the 20 years of service, no ACP is admissible. 6. PBOR already completed 20 years of service with or without a promotion, second financial up gradation is admissible direct without the first ACP from the date of issue of MOD letter, if other wise qualified. Example: Date of Enrolment : 10.10.1980 Rank : Sep Second ACP date : 07.08.2003 (Direct). 6. For PBOR already having service more than 10 years service but less than 20 years service on the date of issuee of MOD letter without a promotion, first financial up gradation can be granted from the date of issue of MOD letter and the surplus service beyond 10 years can be reckoned for the completion of next ten years service for grant of second. In other words, the basic condition of completion of ten years service from the date of first for the second is not mandatory in this contingency. Example: Date of Enrolment : 10.10.1985. Rank : Sep First ACP due : 07.08.2003 Second ACP date : 10.10.2005.(i.e. without completion of 10 years Service from the date of first ACP). 7. With the implementation of ACP for PBOR, Grant of TSNK will be limited to those who are not covered by the ACP. 8.Although, placement in first ACP is not treated as a promotion, it is felt that the appointment pay due to the PBOR (L/NK & TS L/NK) to be ceased on grant of ACP. „Hand Book on Pay & Allowances‟ 17 8.If ACP is granted to a PBOR in the NK Scale of Pay and subsequently regular promotion is granted to the same rank, then no further fixation of pay is due to the PBOR, which means the promoted rank updation in the IRLA with date is a formality. 9.In order to track the ACP promotion with the pay and allowances drawn, on grant of first ACP, the paid acting rank field in the IRLA will be updated as “ACPNK” for identification. The same procedure will be followed for second financial up gradation and paid acting rank field will be up dated as “ACPHAV”. In these cases if the regular promotions are received, then the Substantive rank fields will be updated with respective rank as SBNK or as the case may be. 10.Fixation under ACP scheme is purely personal and hence no financial upgradation is envisaged to set right the anomalies etc for senior personnel on the ground that junior personnel in the rank got higher pay scale under the ACP Scheme. 11.Although ACPNK and ACPHAV are not treated as ranks, the fixation of pay and adjustment of Increments on these are to take place on par with the promoted ranks and hence the structure available in the system to be modified by including appropriate code values. This, it is proposed to be achieved by allotting 29 for ACPNK and 39 for ACPHAV. This is necessary to handle grant and cancellation of Promotions, ACPs, Increments and also re-drawal on receipt of any old DOs II. Auth: GOI, MOD No:14(1)/99-D(AG) dt: 07.08.2003.
