Ministry of Defence recommended for pay fixation of Exsm JCOS/OR
Dear veteran friends,
Our movement, fight for rights likely to win the battle. Ministry of defence has forwarded their recommendation to DOPT and positively recommended. Mr Puspendra Singh, Under Secretary, DOPT has sent the document to me.
27 February 2017
CLARIFICATION OF DOPT ORDERS REGARDING PAY FIXATION
Clarification about Para 4(b)(i) of DoPT OM
dated 5.04.2010 for which Shri Pushpender Kumar the under secretary (Pay) DoPT
stated pay is allowed only at the entry pay as pension is not deducted in the
case of PBOR and the orders make a clear distinction between fixation of pay
Commissioned Officers and PBOR .
Para 4 (b) (i) : the
Para states in case where the pension is fully ignored initial pay should be
fixed as per entry pay of the re-employed post as in the case of direct
recruits appointed on or after 1.1.2006 as notified vide section Part A of
first Schedule to CCS (RP) rules, 2008.It is pertinent to note that :
(a)
It
may be noted that due to the introduction running pay bands and Grade Pay in
the 6th CPC, the term “Minimum Pay has been replaced with Entry Pay
in the revised pay structure as given Para (b) (i) of the DoPT O.M dated
05/04/2010.
(b)
Here
the line “Pay shall be fixed as per the entry of the re-employed post” implies
the Pay scale /structure of the re-employed post to be considered while initial
pay fixation and not the minimum pay at which pay is to be fixed.
(c)
That the Ministry of Finance issued
Notification vide GSR 622 (E) dated
29.08.2008 in exercise of powers conferred by the provisions to article
309 and clause (5) of article 148 of constitution of India. Therefore the
eligibility of the applicant for the pay fixation is prescribed by the DOPT OM
dated 11.11.2008 and it is therefore from 01-01-2006 the initial pay of
re-employed government ,who received pension or any other retirement benefits
but which were ignored while fixing on re-employed and who elects or is deemed
to have elected to be governed by the revised pay scale from 1-1-2006 and their pay shall be fixed according to the
provision of by Rule 7 of CCS (RP) Rules, 2008 for determine the initial pay on
re-employment vide Para 2(1) and Para 1(II) of DOPT OM dated 11-11-2008.It also
further clarified the application of Rule 7 is continue to apply in cases of pay fixation re-employed persons
vide DOPT circular No. 997012/2014-Estt(Pay) dated 26-6-2014.
(d)
In
this regard, it has been clarified by the ministry of Defence (Finance) as
communicated by CGDA vide letter No. AT/II/2432-VI dated
15/02/1993,No.AT/Tech/263-XVIII dated 12.05.2015 that in all cases where the entire amount of
pension is ignored , the initial pay on re-employment has to be fixed at the
minimum of the scale of the re-employed post and therefore there is no necessity
of indicating the pay drawn by individual from the date of enrollment to the
date of discharge , and only particulars of Last Pay drawn will serve the
purpose, in the other words , where the entire amount of pension ignored ,
furnishing the Last pay drawn particulars of Military Pensioner will suffice
for the purpose of fixation on re-of pay employment.
(e)
The
pay of the fresh recruit recruited on or after 1.1.2006 is fixed at minimum of
the pay scale and has no relevance to
the ex-servicemen and that is to be done in accordance with Rule 8 and the same is extracted in Para-08 of the Gazette Notification
dated 29.08.2008 that :
“8……..Section-II
of Part-A of the first schedule of these rules indicates the entry level pay in
the pay band at which the pay of direct recruits to a particular post carrying
specific grade pay will be fixed on or after 01.01.2006”
(f)
Office of the Pr.C.D.A. (P), Allahabad vide
their letter No .At/Tech/263-XVI dated 07.03.2013(Circular No.166 ) clarified
about the distinction between pay fixation of pay of Commissioned Officer and
PBOR that in case of re-employed Commissioned Officers the pay in the post of
re-employment is not required to be fixed at the minimum of the scale as a
certain portion of pension is taken into account and entirely ignored whereas in all cases of the ex-servicemen (PBOR) on re-employment their pay fixed at higher stage and the pay
should be treated as fixed at a minimum only for the purpose of ignoring the
entire pension and allowing dearness relief on pension .(Copy enclosed).
(g)
More so Para 3 of the OM dated 5.4.2010 said that
apart from the Para’s 4(a),(b)(i),(b)(ii),(c) it is also clarified in which
(iv) and (v) provided which clearly stipulated about the fixation of pay of
personnel/officers re-employed prior
to 1.1.2006 and who were in employment
as on 11.1.2006 and who retired prior to 1.1.2006 and wh have been re-employed
after 1.1.2006. Further Para 3(v) effected for both officers and personnel
(PBOR) as the word clearly mentioned personnel/Officers. The Para states that their pay on
re-employment will be fixed by notionally arriving at their revised basic pay
at the time of retirement as if they had retired under the revised pay
structure. This will be done with reference to the fitment table of the Defence
Service Rank/civilian service post (as the case may be ) from which they had
retired and the stage of basic pay at the time of their retirement. The basic
pay before retirement so arrived at. However, they shall be granted the grade
pay of the re-employed post. The maximum basic pay in the pay band of Rs.67,
000/- i.e. the maximum of the pay band PB-4.In all these cases, the
non-ignorable part of the pension shall be reduced from the pay so fixed.
Refer the judgments
of Hon’ble CAT Bangalore bench OA No
1276/2013 dated 14.07.2010 and Hon’ble CAT Chennai Bench OA No 310/01207/2015
dated 22.07.2016.
.
Para 4(d): It so clear
that where a pensioner who is retired before attaining the age of 55 years is
re-employed, in fixing is pay on re-employment, his pension is not fully
ignored but is ignored only to the extent provided in Para (d) of clause 4 of DoPT
OM dated 5.4.2010 and his pay is to be fixed as per Clause 4(b)(ii) where he is
re-employed. In such cases Rule is not fix the Pay at the minimum of Pay scale
applicable to the post. But has to be fixed at the same stage at the last pay
drawn before retirement.
Refer the Judgment of Hon’ble High Court of Rajasthan OA
No 2002(4)WLN 603 dated 07 December 2001.
It therefore for the purpose all the elements
constituting Pre-Retirement Pay as mentioned in Para 3.1 of Government of India
, Ministry of defence letter dated 12.11.2010 and the DoPT OM dated 8.11.2010 and
as obtained from their last Pay Certificate and PPO have been consolidated to form the Entry Pay.
The amount so arrived at has been fixed as the Basic Pay as on the date of joining
to the department.
23 February 2017
We must win the battle
Dear Veteran Friends & Seniors,
We have reached at the door of our success point. Ministry of Defence has recommended in our favour and further submitted to the Nodal agency i.e DOP&T. We should wait for a little bit to get the orders redirected through the DOP&T. After finalisation of 7th CPC allowances and other disputed issued very soon, in mid of March we are likely to getting our long waiting justice. We have consulted the renowned advocate of Calcutta High Court and after through study of our case he advised us that we should wait for DOP&T's expected Orders that to be released soon based on the recommendation of Ministry of Defence. So, we have been advised that we need not file any court case wrt now.
Hope for the best.
Jai Hind.

INCOME TAX EXEMPTION OF DISABILITY PENSION
MAJ NAVDEEP'S LETTER
TO CHAIRMAN SBI , ON TDS ON DEFENCE DISABILITY PENSION
Law Office
of NAVDEEP SINGH
Advocate, Punjab &
Haryana High Court
Office-cum-Residence :
# 1063, Sec 2, Panchkula – 134112, Haryana
Your reference
:
Our
reference :
To:
Chairman-cum-Managing Director (CMD)
State Bank of India, Mumbai
01 September 2016
ILLEGAL DEDUCTION OF
INCOME TAX ON DISABILITY PENSION BY THE STATE BANKOF INDIA IN CONTRAVENTION OF
DIRECTIONS OF THE GOVT
1. Shocking
instances have come to light wherein your bank has indulged in deduction of
Income Tax at source in case of Disability Pensioners. On further inquiry, it
has been informed that the action is based upon some ‘advice’ rendered by a Chartered
Accountant that income tax exemption is only available to those pensioners who
have been invalided out before completion of their service for normal pension,
that is, those released earlier than 20 years in case of Commissioned Officers
and 15 years in case of ranks other than Commissioned Officers, and that the
said exemption is not available on the service element of those who have been
released/ retired/discharged with a pension after serving more than 20/15 years
of service as above.
2. Firstly,
your attention is invited to Instruction No 2/2001 issued by the Central Board
of Direct Taxes in this regard which amply explains the issue (Appx A).
Your attention is also invited to Paragraph 88.3 of the Pension Payment
Instructions issued to all your banks by the Government (Appx B) which
leaves no scope of doubt regarding exemption of income tax from the entire
disability pension, including service element. Moreover, the interpretation of
your bank in this regard is absolutely incorrect, absurd and militates against
the rules and norms promulgated by the Government as above. It may be recalled
that Income Tax exemption on complete disability pension is available to
defence personnel since the 1920s.
3. On
discussion, it emerges that the confusion has been created due to the
terminology of ‘Service Element’ which is hereby clarified for your benefit in
the following lines. Disabled personnel who are granted disability benefits at
the time of release from service are known as Disability Pensioners. The
said Disability Pension consists of two elements- service element and
disability element. Both elements taken together are known as Disability
Pension. There is no minimum qualifying service required for the grant of
Service Element with effect from 01 January 1973. The calculation of service
element however is different in cases of those personnel released from service
before completion of pensionable service limits vis-a-vis those who are
released on completing pensionable service limits. In case of the latter, the
service element is granted at a rate equal to Service Pension. The fact that
the pension granted for service in both cases is known as Service Element
becomes clear from a bare perusal of Regulation 183 of the Pension Regulations,
1961, which contains two clauses, that is, 183(1)(a) for those who are released
with sufficient service to earn a pension, and 183(1)(b) for those who are
released before completing sufficient service to qualify for normal service
pension. The said Regulation is enclosed as Appx C. Please note
from the Regulation that in both cases the service part of the pension is known
as Service Element. Even the normal service pension rates reflected under
Regulation 183(1)(a)(i) are categorized as ‘Service Element’.
4. The
fact that the service part of pension, whether a person is released prior to
completion of service limits or after completion of service limits (20/15
years), is known as ‘Service Element’ also becomes clear from a perusal of the
recent Circular No 554 (Appx D) issued by the Principal Controller of
Defence Accounts (Pensions) to all banks, including yours. Paragraphs 1(i) and
(ii) and then 1(iv) & 1(v) as well as Paragraph 6 of the same clearly
stipulate that in case of disability pensioners, the amount of service part of
the pension is known as ‘Service Element’ irrespective of the fact whether a
person has lesser or more than 20/15 years of service. In simple words, the
service element of pension in cases of those disabled personnel who have
completed pensionable limits is equal to normal service pension, but being
disability pensioners, it is nomenclatured as ‘Service Element’.
5. Even
otherwise, it would be important to point out that disabled personnel released
prior to completion of pensionable terms as well as those who are released on
completion of terms or at own request are all treated at par as far as
disability pension is concerned. In fact, all those who are in low medical
category at the time of release are to be treated as ‘invalided’ as per
rules (Also Appx C) as has also been held as per interpretation of
teh pre-existing rules by the Hon’ble Delhi High Court in CW 2967/1989 Mahavir
Singh Narwal Vs Union of India decided on 05 May 2004 as affirmed by
the Hon’ble Supreme Court in SLP 24171/2004 on 04 January 2008 and also in the
recent decision of the Hon’ble Supreme Court in Civ Appeal 11208//2011 Union of India Vs Angad Singh Titaria decided on 24 Feb 2015.
6. In
view of the above, you are requested to inform all your branches to cease and
desist from flouting guidelines of the Central Board of Direct Taxes in this
regard and direct them to honour income tax exemption on both service as well
as disability elements of disability pensioners as was being done till now. It
may be appreciated that the opinion of your Chartered Accountant cannot
override existing law and rules that have been followed since times immemorial.
7. You
are requested to issue directions to refund the illegally deducted amount to
all affected disabled pensioners within a period of 7 days from the receipt of
this letter.
Thanking You

Railway Board approaches the DOP&T for clerification regarding pay fixation of exservicemen
Pay fixation of reemployed exservicemen is a controversial issue and government departments allows to darw the pay of Retired Commissioned Officers of Armed forces at the same stage as last pay drawn before their retirement. In case of PBOR they are deprived and allowed to draw only minimum pay of reemployed post which is violation of Article 14 of Constitution of India. To give parity in this matter attention is hereby invited to the Govt through employer authorities. Railway Board has approached to DOP&T which is self explanatory and DOP&T can not escape from their duty to clerify the points raised.

INCORRECT USAGE OF TERM ‘PBOR' - Address Ex-Servicemen as ‘Armed Forces Veterans’
Based on the recommendations of the Chief of Staff Committee, Raksha Mantri (MOD) has approved the proposal that henceforth "Ex-Servicemen" will be addressed as "Armed Forces Veterans". Army HQ has issued a letter on Monday, 7th Feb 2011 ordering discontinuation the use of the word “PBOR”. The abbreviation/acronym 'PBOR' does not exist in the 'Staff Duties in Fd Appx 'C' - Abbreviation 2006'. However, over a period of time incorrect usage of this term PBOR has become a practice. It is seen and reported by a Comd HQ that the acronym 'PBOR' is being wrongly used in respect of 'JCOs and ORs'. The issue has been considered at the IHQ of MoD(Army). It has been decided that the acronym 'PBOR' will not be used, instead 'JCOs and ORs' is to be used in all the letters/communications.
The above instructions may be disseminated to the effect for compliance.

a) The existing system of Pay Band and Grade Pay has been replaced with separate Pay Matrix for Defence forces personnel as specified at Annexure-II.
b) Fixation of payof each employee in the new Pay Matrix as on 01.01.2016 would be done by multiplying his/her basic pay by a factor of 2.57.
Note-1 With regard to fixation of pay in the new Pay Matrix as on 01.01.2016, the existing pay (Pay in Pay Band plus Grade Pay) in the pre-revised structure as on 31.12.2015 shall be multiplied by a factor of 2.57. The figure so arrived at is to be located in the Level corresponding to employee’s Grade Pay in the new Pay Matrix.

(vi) Arrears of Pay would be paid during the current financial year;
(vii) Recommendations not relating to pay and allowances and other administrative issues specific to department/ cadres/ posts would be examined separately as per the Transaction of Business Rules/ Allocation of Business Rules.

Grant of Financial Upgradation under MACP to the DSC Personnel: Since Defence Security Corps personnel are personnel under the Army, they would also be permitted the benefit of MACP. However this benefit should be limited to a total of three upgrades in the entire service career, both during regular employment and in the course of reemployment as defence service corps personnel. As they are defence forces personnel the benefit of MACP would be extended to them after a period of eight years from their date of re-employment, in case they do not get a promotion.(Para 6.2.98)
