We are placed in a govt. statutory body through outsource agency. The govt. statutory body is paying the minimum calculated amount to the basic pay of the concerned employees to the outsource agency and the outsource agency in turn after keeping its delibterated amount with these employees pay the same to its employee. Now, a bids have been floated for the outsource tenderers and the lowest tenderer has been selected. Now, the new outsource agency is pressing for reducing the salary amount which was earlier paid by the previous outsource agency. My question is whether is there any rule where it is said that the existing salary can not be reduced by the new contractor. If there is any rule or govt. circular, the same may kindly be very helpful to us and please intimate the same to us.
