Dear Sir(s),
I was working as a scientist in DRDO(Defence R&D Organization) in Pay-Band PB-3 with grade Pay 6600.
Thru' proper channel I applied for the post of Asst. Director in DGCA(Directorate General of Civil Aviation) having same PB-3 and grade pay of 6600 to UPSC and was selected.
Now, the issue is that I was getting some extra increments (mentioned in my Last Pay Certificate-LPC)that is 2 additional increments and 5 special increments. I was promised by UPSC & DGCA in writing that my pay shall be protected as per Govt rules.
In pay fixation here, I am not able to find what regulation/rule shall be applicable for these additional & special increments those were paid by DRDO based on my performance in interview for promotion. In the absence of any clear rule I am being denied these increments.
please help me in this regards that under what regulation can I get these increments. Both are central govt Departments and I have applied thru' proper channel.
Thanx in advance
with warm regards,
YASHPAL,
Asst. Director-DGCA
Civi Aviation Deptt.

you can move high court relevant under Article 226 if you choose to go direct to HC and you can move HC as that Art is a judicial review on your rights of pay fixation pls

Pay protection does not always mean protection of increments and other allowances. Pay protection implies that your last pay drawn is protected. Hence, any excess (in your case extra increments) will be added to your pay as additional pay that will be absorbed in your future pay. This is some thing like grant of special increment for passing certain examination in Hindi as a measure of Hindi language promotion.
