Respected sirs,
I joined Central excise department as Inspector (Grade pay – 4600) at trichy (Coimbatore Zone) on 15.05.2012. I got my first increment on 1st july 2013. In 2014 on reselection in the exam I again got selected for the same post but this time I got Ahmedabad Zone. My technical resignation was accepted by the competent authority on 28.02.2014. Thereafter I joined at Ahmedabad.
The question is whether my pay(one increment in the past service) will be protected and am I eligible for second increment on 1.07.2014 or my pay will remain as a fresh recruit.
My friends in other departments and even in my own department having similar case, are getting the above benefit.
But in my case the Pay & Accounts officer is not agreeing and asking under which rule you should get the above mentioned benefit and he has refused to give me second increment on 1.07.2014. Moreover he has also said that money will be recovered soon from those who have been availing this benefit.
We are a bunch of 5 employee from the latest batch who are suffering from this problem .
kindly reply whether I am eligible for second increment on 1.07.2014?
If yes, under which rule?
What are the legal options before us if they do not agree to give me second increment on 1.07.2014.
Thanking you in anticipation.
