MACP reoresentation


Dated:
To,
The Commissioner,



Sub: Para 8.1 of MACP Scheme and offsetting of MACP upgradation with the time scale.
Sir,
            It is to submit with due regards that the single Grade Pay of Rs. 5400/- in PB2 and PB3 has been mentioned as separate grade pays under para 8.1 of MACP Scheme. Not only it, one MACP upgradation has also been offset with the time scale granted after serving for 4 years in the Grade Pay of Rs. 4800/- treating the time scale as one MACP upgradation. As a result, our officers are getting after 30 years of service under MACPS what they were able to get after 24 years of service under ACPS. 
            2. In regard of treating single Grade Pay of Rs. 5400/- in PB2 and PB3 as separate grade pays under para 8.1, your kind attention is invited to the verdict given on 16.10.14 by the Hon’ble Madras High Court in Writ Petition No. 11535/2014 with M.P No. 1/2014 upholding that the Grade Pay of Rs. 5400/- in PB-2 (Level-9) & PB-3 (Level-10) is one and the same thing as there is no difference between the Grade Pay of Rs. 5400/- in PB2 and PB3. The said judgment was finalized by the Hon’ble Apex Court in Special Leave to Appeal (C) 15396 of 2015 by dismissing the SLP filed by the Govt. It is also worth to submit that the next Grade Pay after Rs. 5400/- is Rs. 6600/- (Level-11).
            3. Regarding the offsetting of MACP upgradation with the time scale, your kind attention is invited to the verdict given by the Hon’ble High Court of Delhi on 20.12.17 in the W.P.(C) No. 9357/2016 upholding that non-functional financial upgradation (time scale) is not MACP upgradation being integral part of the pay. Thus, it can no way be treated as one MACP upgradation.
            4. In view of the above, it is requested to kindly grant me the Grade Pay of Rs. 6600/- (Level-11) after time scale of Rs. 5400/- without offsetting time scale with the MACP upgradation.
Thanking you,
Yours sincerely,


(                         ),
