Sir,
Iam working in a public sector bank as officer.
I have not recieved increment from the year 2001 onwards.
My personal request for increment is neglected.

In meanwhile i lost many documents.

Ur faithfully,
V.A.Todurkar.

1. This is quite surprising.
2. The establishment department of your bank has all the pay details then why should they be asking for copy of the pay slips.
3. Make a representation to your officer's association to resolve the issue.

The bank is supposed to keep all salary records as is prescribed to be preserved for years together. So, they should not have asked you to provide proof. Rather, they should provide evidence, if increment had ever been drawn in your establishment bills from time to time.
You may adopt following courses:
(1) approach through employees union; and
(2) Use RTI to gather information about basic pay drawn from time to time as well as the rate and dates of increments drawn in your favour.

What was the reason of non releasing of increment ?
When you were appointed / promoted ?
In public sector Banks the maximum scale is reached in aprox. 16 years (for officer scale -I, may be earlier if special increments are earned due to qualification or CAIIB etc.) and after that only 1-2 stagnation increments are given after 5 years each reaching the maximum. Bank may withhold increment if any disciplinary case is pending against the officer.
Collect date of appointment / promotion / qualification etc and get the present position calculated from local public sector Bank officer of any Bank. In case of discrepancy, meet HR officer at Regional office.
You may send all data to me by PM, I may try to calculate the position. Service is not chargeable / free.

Mr. Vinayak,
In your latest information, you have still not mentioned whether the you were reduced by two stages with or without cummulative effect. That is quite a crucial information to form any specific opinion, which you withheld. If orders specify reduction with cummulative effect, you may treat the effect of punishment till the end of your service.

even if the punishment was cumulative stil after end of penalty period the increment were to be given from which ever stage you were there.
Have you submitted representation.

in your earliest pot yo decided to hide the fact of disciplinary action which you disclosed only now.
Please explain if any more facts are there.
