hello sir my 6th pay amount is 8110+2400 as on 1.1.2016 please how to count 7th pay ?
your pay will be fixed as 8110+2400 = 10510 x 2.57 =27011. As per matrix table corresponding to GP 2400 your pay is 27100/-.
My pay + GP is Rs.21840/- as on 1.1.16. I got MACP on 1st March 16 in the GP of Rs.4800/-. Please calculate my pay if I exercise for 2nd option.
I retired on VRS after 1-1-2016 . Now I am getting pension in pre- revised scale. My doubt is whether I will get my pension multiplied by 2.57 with arrears as interim measure until revised pay has been fixed fixed and new revised pensionary benefits authorised by head of office/PAO.There is no mention about those who retired after 1-1-2016 in 6cpc scale. please reply
