Volume-I 2.1.6Ban on de-reservation in Direct Recruitment
Where sufficient number of candidates belonging to SC/ST/OBC
Section-A are not available to fill up the posts reserved for them in direct
recruitment, the vacancies shall not be filled by candidates not
belonging to these communities. In other words, there will be a
Section-B ban on de-reservation in direct recruitment
If posts reserved for SC/ST can not be filled up and are carried
Section-C
forward as ‘backlog’ vacancies and remain unfilled for three
successive recruitment years, the post earmarked for SC could be
Section-D filled by ST candidate or vice versa in all subsequent attempts, if
Volume-II suitable candidates belonging to the category for which the
vacancy is reserved is not available.
Section-E
Notwithstanding the aforesaid, in rare and exceptional cases of
Section-F direct recruitment to Group ‘A’ posts where the vacancy cannot be
Search allowed to remain unfilled in public interest, de-reservation of such
reserved vacancies may be permitted with the approval of the
E-Mail
Cabinet Minister in-charge of the administrative Ministry, on the
Home recommendation of the Board of Directors.
Further, if due to non-availability of suitable technically qualified
SC/ST candidates even with relaxed standards, a reserved post in
Group B and C, technical posts cannot be filled with SC/ST
candidates and the post cannot be allowed to remain vacant due
to the resultant adverse impact on the operations of the public
enterprises, de-reservation of such reserved vacancies may be
permitted with the prior approval of the Board of Directors.
However, even in such cases where de-reservation may be
resorted to, the interests of SC/ST will be taken care of by carry
forward and exchange as here in before.

The reserved posts for Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes
Section-A in all cases of direct recruitment, which have remained unfilled in
the earlier year(s) i.e. backlog and/or carried forward posts would
be treated as a separate and distinct group and will not be
Section-B considered together with the reserved posts of the year in which
they are being filled up for determining the ceiling of 50 per cent
Section-C
reservation on total number of posts of that year. In other words,
the ceiling of 50 per cent on filling up of reserved posts would
Section-D apply only on the reserved posts which arise in the current year
Volume-II and the backlog/carried forward reserved posts for SCs/STs of
earlier years would be treated as a separate and distinct group
Section-E
and would not be subject to any ceiling. However, backlog and /or
Section-F carried forward reservation will automatically lapse in a cadre as

Volume-I 4. Guidelines and Principles
Section-A 4.1 Promotion from one Group/Cadre to another Group/Cadre
Section-B
Promotion from one Group/Cadre to another Group/Cadre is on
Section-C the basis of merit as assessed through a selection process which
Section-D
may include an appraisal of performance and test/interview
designed to determine the employees' skill, aptitude and abilities
Volume-II for effective functioning in the higher group/cadre. Employees
Section-E are eligible for consideration for promotion to the higher
group/cadre on completion of a specified number of years of
Section-F
service (to be referred to hereinafter as eligibility period) in the
Search lower group/cadre, subject to organisational needs. This
E-Mail eligibility period will be notified by the Management from time to
time keeping in view the requirements of the organisation.
Home
4.2 Promotion within a Group/Cadre
Employees are eligible for consideration for promotion from a
lower grade to the next higher grade within the same
group/cadre on completion of the number of years of service
prescribed in the lower grade (to be referred to hereinafter as the
'qualifying period') and attainment of satisfactory standards in
conduct and performance. The 'qualifying period' for promotion
within a group will be notified by the Management from time to
time keeping in view the requirements of the organisation.
Employees promoted to or within the Supervisory Cadre or
to/within the Executive Cadre upto E5 grade will be on probation
for a period of one year. On satisfactory completion of probation
such employees will be confirmed in the new grade. The
Competent Authority for declaring successful completion of
probation is ED/GM (in charge of the Division)/GM(P&A)/AGM
(Head of Division)
4.3 'Fast Track' Promotions
With a view to rewarding employees for sustained outstanding
performance, and in order to provide motivation to them for
further improvement, accelerated promotions are considered for
eligible employees on completion of a specified period of service
as may be prescribed for this purpose for each grade. The
number of employees promoted under this clause, however, is
generally limited to 10% of the total number of employees
eligible for such promotions as the basic idea is to spot the best
performers on work.
4.4 It may not be possible to ensure advancement/career prospects
beyond a certain point for employees who either do not possess
the requisite qualifications/skill needed for the higher post or are
held up for want of requirements in the higher groups/cadre. Such
cases are reviewed and employees are considered for the higher
grade on completion of 10 years good and effective service
provided their conduct and performance are otherwise
satisfactory. This is normally not applicable to the position of E5
i.e. the Sr. Manager's grade and above.

proceedings, whether disciplinary or criminal, are, for example
delayed at the instance of the employee or the clearance in the
disciplinary proceedings or acquittal in the criminal proceedings
is with benefit of doubt or on account of non-availability of
evidence due to the acts attributable to the employee etc. These
are only some of the circumstances where such denial can be
justified.
11.5 If any penalty is imposed on the employee as a result of the
disciplinary proceedings or if he is found guilty in the criminal
prosecution against him, the findings of the sealed cover/covers
shall not be acted upon. His case for promotion may be
considered by the next DPC in the normal course and having
regard to the penalty imposed on him.
11.6 It is also clarified that in a case where disciplinary proceedings
have been held under the relevant disciplinary rules, 'warning'
should not be issued as a result of such proceedings. If it is
found, as a result of the proceedings, that some blame attached
to the employee, at-least the penalty of Censure should be
imposed.
11.7 It is necessary to ensure that the disciplinary case/criminal
prosecution instituted against an employee is not unduly
prolonged and all efforts to finalise expeditiously the proceedings
should be taken so that the need for keeping the case of
employee in a sealed cover is limited to the barest minimum. It
has, therefore, been decided that the authorities concerned
should review comprehensively the cases of employees, whose
suitability for promotion to a higher grade has been kept in a
sealed cover on the expiry of 6 months from the date of
convening the first Departmental Promotion Committee, which
had adjudged his suitability and kept its findings in the sealed
cover. Such a review should be done subsequently also every six
months. The review should, inter alia, cover the progress made in
the disciplinary proceedings/criminal prosecution and further
measures to be taken to expedite their completion.
11.8 In spite of the six monthly review referred to in Para 7 above,
there may be some cases, where the disciplinary case/criminal
prosecution against the employee are not concluded even after
the expiry of two years from the date of the meeting of the first
DPC, which kept its findings in respect of the employee in a
sealed cover. In such a situation the competent authority may
review the case of the employee, provided he is not under
suspension, to consider the desirability of giving him ad hoc
promotion keeping in view the following aspects :
to Section A1 A1A A2 A3 A4 A5
to Page No.6
Volume-I Sub Section A:4
Page No.6
Volume-I a) Whether the promotion of the employee will be against public
Section-A interest.
Section-D
c) Whether there is not likelihood of the case coming to a
conclusion in the near future;
Volume-II
d) Whether the delay in the finalisation of proceedings,
Section-E
departmental or in a court of law is not directly or indirectly
Section-F attributable to the employee concerned;
Search
e) Whether there is any likelihood of misuse of official position,
E-Mail which the employee may occupy after ad hoc promotion,
Home which may adversely affect the conduct of the departmental
case/criminal prosecution.
The competent authority should also consult the Central
Bureau of Investigation and take their views into account
where the departmental proceedings or criminal prosecution
have risen out of the investigations conducted by the Bureau.
11.8.1 In case the competent authority comes to a conclusion that it
would not be against the public interest to allow ad-hoc
promotion to the employee, his case should be placed before
the next DPC held in the normal course after the expiry of the
two year period to decide whether the officer is suitable for
promotion on ad-hoc basis. Where the employee is
considered for ad-hoc promotion, the Departmental
Promotion Committee should make its assessment on the
basis of the suitability of the individual's record of service
without taking into account the pending disciplinary
case/criminal prosecution against him.
11.8.2 After a decision is taken to promote an employee on an ad-
hoc basis, an order of promotion may be issued making it
clear in the order itself that:-
i) The promotion is being made on purely ad-hoc basis and the
ad hoc promotion will not confer any right for regular
promotion; and
ii) The promotion shall be 'until further orders'. It should also be
indicated in the orders that the Company reserves the right to
cancel the ad-hoc promotion and revert at any time the
employee to the post from which he was promoted.
11.8.3 If the employee concerned is acquitted in the criminal
prosecution on the merits of the case or is fully exonerated in
the departmental proceedings, the ad hoc promotion already
made if any be confirmed and the promotion treated as a
regular one from the date of the ad-hoc promotion with all
attendant benefits. In case the employee could have normally
got his regular promotion from a date prior to the date of his
ad-hoc promotion with reference to his placement in the DPC
proceedings kept in the sealed cover(s), he would also be
allowed his due seniority and benefit of notional promotion as
envisaged in Para 4 above.

further proposes to take up the matter to a higher court or to

Section-C exonerated in the departmental proceedings, the ad-hoc
promotion granted to him should be brought to an end.

rules as stated herein if it is satisfied that such changes are

necessary in the overall interest of the organisation.

Sub: Fixation of flat rate of license fee for residential accommodation
Section-F under Central Government all over the country -
Search Recommendations of the Fourth Pay commission.
E-Mail In para 14.32 of the Report of the Fourth Pay commission (Part
Home
- I) , the Commission has made the following recommendations
relating to charging of license fee for Government
accommodation allotted to employees:-
Under the existing rules, the rent for Government
accommodation other than hostel accommodation is recovered
at 10% of emoluments (basic pay plus dearness pay upto 320
points CPI) or standard rent of the house, whichever is less. In
the case of employees in receipt of pay below Rs.300/- the
recovery is made at 7.5% of emoluments or standard rent
whichever is less. Thus, considerable accounting work is
required for calculating rent in each case. This also leads to
disparities in recovery of rent among comparable employees in
occupation of the same type of accommodation in different
stations, and in different localities at the same station. We are
of the view that rent for the Government accommodation should
be recovered at a flat rate with reference to the type of
accommodation allotted to the employees and the rate should
be uniformly applicable throughout India. This will not only
dispense with avoidable accounting work but will also bring
about uniformity in rent recovery from the employees for the
same type of accommodation in all places. We recommend that
Government may examine the matter and take a decision.
2 The matter relating to fixation of flat rate of license fee for
Government accommodation has been considered by
Government and the recommendation of the Fourth Pay
Commission for fixation of flat rate of license fee for
residential accommodation all over the country has been
accepted. The relevant provisions of the Fundamental
Rules and the Supplementary Rules have also been
amended for the purpose of fixation/recovery of flat rate
of license fee and for its revision every three years.
Copies of the notifications published in the Gazette of
India amending FR-45A and SR-324 are enclosed
(Annexure - I&Annexure - II).
3 In terms of GFR-45-A-IV(C)(ii) , it has been decided by
the Central Government to prescribe flat rates of license
fee for the residential accommodation available in
general pool and also under various
Ministries/Departments of Government of India all over
the country (except in respect of sub-standard/
unclassified accommodation of Ministry of Defence,
accommodation for service personnel/Officer of Ministry
of
to Page No.4
Volume-I Sub Section B:3B
Page No.4
Volume-I Defence and accommodation under the control of the
Ministry of Railways). The flat rate of license fee for
Section-A
different types of accommodation fixed by Government is
Section-B indicated in the statement attached with this O.M.
Section-C
(Annexure -III). The formula for calculating the living area
of the accommodation is indicated in Annexure-IV. For
Section-D common services/ conservancy and for fire tax and
Volume-II scavenging tax payable for residences, no additional
charges are to be recovered. The flat rate of licence fee is
Section-E
to be recovered with effect from 1.7.87 i.e. from the salary
Section-F for the month of July,1987. This is in partial modification of
Search the date of effect communicated in this Ministry's
Confidential O.M. of even number dated the Ist
E-Mail June,1987.

4. It has also been decided that no additions/alterations of
structural character may be carried out in residences at
the request of the allottees. Such additions/alterations, if
considered necessary, may be carried out in all similar
residences in a standardised manner and no additional
licence fee or charges may be recovered from the
allottees for such additions/alterations.
5. Normally, water and electricity charges are payable by the
allottees to the local bodies. Where, however, such
charges cannot be recovered from the allottees due to
non-availability of separate motors etc., this will continue
to be recovered by the Government from the allottees.
Similarly, charges on account of issue of furniture,
electrical appliances, air conditioning appliances etc.,
would also be recovered from the allottees, if issued.
6. The living area of the quarters indicated in Annexure III
has been assessed on the basis of the living area of the
bulk of general pool quarters as these quarters have been
constructed over a long period of time. However, there
may be cases, where the living area of the quarters may
be slightly less than the minimum specified or the relevant
type or slightly more than the maximum specified. In such
cases, license fee may be recovered on the basis of the
classification of the types of accommodation and based on
the lowest or highest rates depending on the lower living
area or higher living area of the quarter and in such cases,
the license fee may be fixed on a provisional basis and
such anomalies brought to the notice of the Directorate of
Estates indicating the type of accommodation, plinth area,
living area, year of construction and number of rooms
available etc., so that such cases can be considered and
decision taken.
It is requested that immediate action may please be taken to
recover license fee in accordance with these orders in respect of
accommodation under the control of various
Ministries/Departments all over the country.

6.1 Where an employee promoted to a post draws a lower rate of
pay in that post than another employee promoted subsequently to
the same or identical higher post, the pay of the senior employee,
in the higher post, should be stepped up to a figure equal to the
pay fixed for the junior employee in that higher post. This should
be done with effect from the date of promotion of the junior
employee and will be subject to the following conditions:
(a) Both the junior and the senior employees should belong to
the same cadre (line of promotion) and the posts in which
they have been promoted should be identical and in the
same discipline/channel of promotion.
(b) The scales of the lower and the higher posts in which they
are entitled to draw pay should be same.
(c) The anomaly should have arisen directly as a result of the
application of normal pay fixation rules. If in the lower post
a junior employee drew a higher rate of pay than a senior
by virtue of grant of advance incentive increments,
provisions contained in these rules will not be invoked to
step up the pay of the senior employee.
(d) The employee whose pay is to be stepped up should be
senior in the higher grade and should not be junior in the
lower grade.
(e) Comparison of pay has to be made first in the lower post
when an anomaly arises in the higher post. A notional
figure for the senior employee is to be arrived at in the
lower post and then compared with the junior in the lower
grade just before the promotion. The benefit of stepping
up can be allowed to the senior employee only if he was
not drawing or would not have drawn less pay in the lower
post than the junior.
