In India,we are lucky to get a job,that does not meant govt denied our gains from being an employee.The unions doing right job.The wage structure through pay matrix shoud increase.At present 3% increament in every yr shown st way in pay matrix.lf it changed the burden of govt will not rise immediately but in long run benefit to employee.
WHAT ABOUT THE DA… WILL IT BE PUSHED DOWN TO ZERO OR 26 OR 126 AT IT IS NOW.?
Fitment criteria @2.57% is fair as far as pensioners/family pensioners are concerned…..
Points seeking for clarification: I understand that revised pay would be higher of the two amounts worked out based on the following methods: (i) 2.57 times the basic pay plus grade pay as on Jan 01,2016 & (i) Minimum revised basic pay in the related grade plus number of increments one earned in the revised pay scale. It is reported that the increment value to be applied is at 3%. It is not clear whether the rate of 3% shall be worked out based on the initial pay in the grade or on the pay inclusive of increments earned up to the stage of granting increment.
