OFFICE MEMORANDUM
Subject : Allotment of Grade Pay of Rs. 5400/- in PB-2 for Group ‘B’ Gazetted Officers and Grade Pay of Rs.4800/- in PB-2 to Supervisors in the Railways.
The undersigned is directed to refer to Ministry of Railways OM No.PC VI/2008/IC/21 dated 06.01.2012 and DO letter No.PC-VI/2008/IC/20 dated 06.03.2012 on the subject mentioned above. The matter has been reconsidered in this department and as regards allotment of Grade Pay of Rs.5400/- in PB-2 for Group ‘B’ Gazetted Officers who were in the pre-revised scale of Rs.7500-12000, It is observed that Group ‘B’ Gazetted Officers in the pay scale of Rs.7500-12000 exists in all the Ministries / Departments also and agreeing to the instant proposal would have wide repercussion. In view of the above, this department’s earlier decision dated 11.08.2010 is re-iterated. Consequently the proposal for allotment of Grade Pay of Rs. 4800/- in PB-2 to Supervisors who were in the pre-revised scale of Rs.6500-10500 & Rs.7450-11500 is also not agreed to.
2. This issues with the approval of JS (Pers.).

THERE IS LITTLE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN 2ND ACP AND 3RD ACP PAY BAND SHOULD BE 5400 MINIMUM BUT THE GOVT REJECTED THIS DEMAND. IT IS NOT FAIR FOR THOSE EMPLOYEES WHO GOT NO ANY PROMOTION IN WHOLE SERVICE
