OFFICE MEMORANDUM
Subject: Modified Assured Career Progression Scheme for the Central Government Civilian Employees — Clarification regarding grant of benefits of MACPS to officers who have later on inducted into Organized Group A Services –
**********
In terms of clarification given on point of doubt no. 2 of Annexure of this Department’s O.M. dated 09.09.2010, no benefits under the MACPS would be applicable to Group A officers of Organised Group A Services, as the officer under organized Group ‘A’ Services have already been allowed parity of two years on non-functional basis with the officers of the Indian Administrative Service (IAS). In this regard, this Department is in receipt of a number of references from various Departments in respect of officers who are deprived of the benefits of MACPS due to their induction into the organised Group A Services at a later stage of their service.
2. The issue has been considered by this Department in consultation with Department of Expenditure. It has been decided to allow grant of financial up-gradations under MACPS with effect from the due date to those officers who are inducted to the Organized Group ‘A’ Services when they are nearing retirement subject to the condition that only at the time of retirement an evaluation of up gradations/ promotions earned by the officer would be made. In case such officers have already attained three financial upgradations
under MACP Scheme, they shall not be entitled for NFU to the same grade from a later date.
3. Hindi version will follow.

Dear Sir,
It is very unfortunate to notice that the above order No- 35034/10/2011-Estt.(D), dated 13-6-2012 has been misinterpreted by Central Water Commission, R,K,Puram , New Delhi and denied the benefit of 3rd MACP to a Group A Officer from the due date saying as later date (after 4 years from the MACP Due date) he got promotion. The intention of the DOPT order is very clear that the benefit of MACP from the due date or NFU from the appropriate date is to be given to the Group A Officer who later inducted to Group A. So one more clarification is urgently needed from the DOPT whether the 3rd MACP is eligible to a Group A Officer from the due date while reviewing his case before attaining the Retirement. His 3rd MACP was due during 2007 ( how ever w.e.f 01-09-2008). But he got 3rd promotion during November-2011 with same scale of MACP eligibility. A Junior Engineer in CWC after completion of 30 years got 3rd MACP with grade pay Rs.6600/- where as a AD(Group A) is getting only Rs.5400/- as grade pay after completing 34 years service! hence the anomaly still prevailing! One more question_ Anybody can give the details of the “Parity of two years on non-functional basis with the Officers of ‘IAS’ saying as given to all Group A officers under Organised Sector” ? !
In this context I would like ask 2 Questions as (1) Whether I am eligible for 3rd MACP or not. (2) I have got Promotion on 11-11-2011 as my 3rd MACP was due on 1-9-2008 ( My joining in CWC was 01-02-2078 FN) as my Second ACP got it on completion of 24 Years) and third MACP become due on 01-09-2008.
Factual Position is I have got “Neither MACP , Nor NFU, since after getting my third promotion was on 11-11-11 (FN) and retired on 31-10-2014(AN). Anybody can reply please, so that I can approach CAT_ Ernakulam. Please advice me.
