Sunday 13 September 2015

The 7th Pay Commission may be announced ahead of time than was predicted before. Justice Ashok Kumar Mathur told PTI on August 25, “The Commission will submit its report by the end of September.”

THE OLD NEWS – The Union Cabinet extended the Seventh Pay Commission’s term by four months till December 31 to give its views on revising salaries and pensions for nearly 9.8 million central government employees and 9.9 million pensioners. The panel headed by Justice AK Mathur, whose recommendations might also have a bearing on the salaries of the state government staff, was given the extension a day before its original 18-month term ended.
UPDATE – An official of the Finance Ministry, of course, speaking on condition of anonymity, had this to say, “The central government will decide execution time of the pay commission’s proposals after the pay panel submits its report, which will be possibly a pre-election ‘special package’ for West Bengal, Assam, Kerala and Tamil Nadu, which are all due for polls by May 2016”.
Just like the one rank one pension (OROP) was announced by the present government on the 5th of this month ahead of the Bihar Assembly elections despite huge financial burden to get majority seats in the Bihar Assembly, the sources indicate that the recommendations of Seventh Pay Commission, will be implemented before the announcement of West Bengal, Assam, Kerala and Tamil Nadu states assemblies’ election in May 2016.
POLITICS – BJP needs to win most state elections in the next four years to gain control of the Rajya Sabha, where seats are distributed based on the strength of parties in state assemblies. So, the present government is ready to give any sop to win state assembly elections. This was indicated by the Finance Minister Arun Jaitley, who had this to say on 30th August, “report of Seventh Pay Commission for central government employees was coming shortly”.
THE FACT – The 7th Pay Commission was given a deadline to submit their recommendations before 31st December 2015, that gives them the liberty to submit their recommendations at any date before 31st December 2015.
If you remember, The Seventh Pay Commission, which was set up by the UPA government, was required to submit its report by August end. The Chairman of the Seventh Pay Commission, Justice Ashok Kumar Mathur told PTI on August 25, “The Commission will submit its report by the end of September.”
THE POLITICAL GAME – A defeat for the Prime Minister would harm his chances of consolidating power in parliament, where his reform agenda is being blocked because his party is in the minority in the Rajya Sabha. Hence the present Government needs to win most state elections in the next four years to gain control of the Rajya Sabha, where seats are distributed based on the strength of parties in state assemblies, Hence the present Government is ready to give any sop to win states assemblies elections.
THE CONCLUSION – Who cares about politics, we have our own ends to meet, the sooner the better.. we are waiting … waiting and waiting……

Salaries of central govt staff to exceed Rs 1 lakh crores - Seventh Pay Commission Recommendations will likely be implemented in 2015-16 fiscal

Ahead of the assembly elections of West Bengal, Assam, Kerala and Tamil Nadu in May’ 2016, the Central government will implement the recommendations of the Seventh Pay Commission after receiving the report of the pay panel within this year, which will benefit 50 lakh central government employees and 56 lakh pensioners including dependents.
Central government’s salary expenditure will exceed Rs 1 lakh crore in the current fiscal and is projected to increase further with the recommendations of 7th Pay Commission, posing risk to public finances, Finance Ministry said today.
According to the Medium-Term Expenditure Framework Statement tabled in Parliament, the salary outgo of central government employees will go up by 9.56 per cent to Rs 1,00,619 crore in current fiscal.
The pace will increase further in 2016-17 at 15.79 per cent to Rs 1.16 lakh crore with the likely implementation of the 7th Pay Commission award, said the statement tabled by Finance Minister Arun Jaitley in Parliament.
The outgo towards salary will further rise in 2017-18 to over Rs 1.28 lakh crore. “The award of VII Central Pay Commission (CPC) and its impact on government finances poses a risk,” said the statement.
It also raised concerns about the rising pension bill of government employees saying it will rise to Rs 88,521 crore in current fiscal. It has been pegged at over Rs 1.02 lakh crore in 2016-17, and over Rs 1.12 lakh crore in 2017-18. “Like in salaries, higher than normative growth, has been provided for the projection of outlay on pensions during 2016-17. For the second year of the projection (2017-18), a normative growth has been assumed. Award of VII CPC and its impact on Government finances poses a risk,” it added.
The recommendations of the 7th Pay Commission, which was set up by in February 2014, is likely to be implemented from January 1, next year.

Now, Central Govt staff seek OROP in 7th Pay Commission

Now, Central Govt staff seek OROP in 7th Pay Commission

 New Delhi, Sept 12:

The joint consultative machinery for all Central Government staff has demanded that one rank one pension be implemented for all current and future pensioners. The demand is to implement it in the Seventh Pay Commission.

The move comes shortly after the Government decided to implement OROP for defence personnel.

OROP already exists for the judges of the Supreme Court, High Court and CAG, the letter stated, written by Shiva Gopal Mishra, Secretary, joint consultative machinery, Central Government Employees.
Click here to view: Pension and Other Retirement Benefits: Part II of NC, JCM Memorandum submitted to 7th CPC

The letter has been written to the Seventh Pay Commission Chairman Justice Ashok Kumar Mathur. 

(Source: The Hindu)

Chapter IV of NC, JCM Memorandum submitted to 7th CPC related to OROP to CGE

CHAPTER – IV
Parity Between Past And Future Pensioners
4.1 The Government have recently announced that “One Rank One Pension” shall be implemented in respect of Armed Forces so that the glaring disparity between the persons of equivalent rank and status do not draw vastly unequal pensions if they retire at different point of time, is undone. Already there is a complete parity in pension among the Judges of Supreme Court, High Court and the Comptroller and Auditor General of India, irrespective of the date of their retirement.

4.2 In so far as the Civilian Employees are concerned the principle of parity in pension between the past and the future pensioners was implemented by the Government as had been recommended by the V CPC. The V CPC recommended that “as a follow up of our basic objective of parity we would recommend that the pension of all pre-1986 retirees may be updated by notional fixation of pay as on 1.1.1986 by adopting the same formula (Revised Pay Rules) as far as the serving employees. This step would bring all the past pensioners to a common platform on to the 4th CPC pay scales as on 1.1.1986. Thereafter, all pensioners who have been brought on the 4th CPC pay scales by notional fixation of pay and those who have retired on or after 1.1.1986 can be treated alike in regard to consolidation of their pension as on 1.1.1996 by allowing the same fitment weightage as may be allowed to the serving employees”. They further recommended that “the consolidated pension shall not be less than 50% of the minimum pay of the post as revised by the CPC held by the pensioner at the time of retirement”. The V CPC further said that “this attainment of reasonable parity needs to be continued so as to achieve complete parity over a period of time”. However the VI CPC totally ignored these recommendations of the V CPC and has reintroduced the element of disparity by not adopting the same formula for post 1996 retirees, and by not recommending the same fitment benefit and other recommendations liberalising the pension rules in respect of pre-2006 retirees. Thus a huge disparity between pre-2006 and post-2006 retirees has been created by the VI CPC.



4.3 We therefore urge that pay of every pre-2014 retiree should be notionally redetermined (corresponding to the post from which he or she retired and not corresponding to the scale from which he or she retired) as if he or she is not retired and then the pension be computed under the revised liberalised rules which are to be applicable to the post-2014 retirees under the same rules which would be applicable to employees in service as on 1.1.2014.

2. Uniform 2.86 Multiplication Factor
3. HRA remain unchanged
4. Reintroduction of CCA
EXPECTED 7th PAY COMMISSION PAY SCALE CALCULATOR AS ON 1.1.2016 (Updated July 2015)
Expected 7th Pay Commission Pay Scale Calculator as on 1.1.2016
“Eagerness about Pay Hike Led to the Formation of the Estimate Calculator for Central Government Employees”
Now that one year has passed since the formation of the 7th Central Pay Commission, curiosity to know about the salary hike has increased among Central Government employees. The 18-month duration given to the Pay Commission ends in August this year. It is obvious that the Commission is working hard and dedicatedly to complete its tasks and present its pay hike recommendations and report, at the most, before the end of this year.
Sources say that the Government will give its nod to the recommendations of 7th CPC by April 2016. The recommendations including new pay scale for all groups are expected to come into effect from January 1, 2016 onwards.
“All over the world, speculations usually run wild about the outcome of certain events. More than 50 lakh current and former Central Government employees await information about the revision of pay and pension all over the country”.
We now present you the “Expected Calculator” which will give a fair idea of what to expect, in terms of salary increment, from the 7th Pay Commission.
Now, about our calculator…
First the ‘Expected Pay Scale Table of 7th Pay Commission’. [Click here]
And another important calculation is ‘Pay in the Pay Band’ of 7th Pay Commission. [Click here]
We know very well that Dearness Allowance percentage plays a very crucial role in deciding the revised pay sturcture. AICPIN, which is used to calculate the Dearness Allowance, has been on the stable for the past six months. Therefore, it is slightly difficult to calculate the new pay scale. As of now, Dearness Allowance is fixed at 120% for the current calculations.
House Rent Allowance, like before, will be calculated based on the city where the head quarter is located and is given as 10%, 20% and 30%. There will be no changes in this.
Transport Allowance is calculated depending on Dearness Allowance and is expected to increase by 3.28 times than the current rates.
How to use our calculator…
Just input of your present basic pay and details of allowances in the prescribed places. Click to calculate button. We immediately suggest your Pay Band, Pay in Pay Band, Grade Pay, HRA and TA as on 1.1.2016 on the basis of your inputs.
In our calculator, the July 2015 increment is added to the current basic pay to first arrive at the likely pay of January 1, 2016. According to the revised basic pay, DA, HRA and TA are given in the output table.
Then, based on the estimated hike of the 7th Pay Commission, the expected in revision of pay scale and allowances are given. Pay Band, Basic Pay, HRA, TA and the total of your expected pay as on 1.1.2016.
Finally, the difference between the two is calculated.

PM interacts with school children on the eve of Teachers' Day

PM releases commemorative coin on Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan, and launches Kala Utsav website

The Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi, today interacted with school children from across the country, on the eve of Teachers' Day. In a unique event anchored entirely by school children themselves, the Prime Minister released commemorative coins of denomination Rs. 125, and Rs. 10, to mark the birth anniversary of India's second President, Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan. The Prime Minister also launched the website for Kala Utsav, an initiative of Ministry of Human Resource Development (MHRD) to promote arts in education by nurturing and showcasing the artistic talent of school students at the secondary stage in the country.

In his opening remarks on the occasion, the Prime Minister said that there is a special significance of interacting with school children on the eve of Teachers' Day. He said a teacher is known by the accomplishments of his students. He said that while a mother gives birth, it is the teacher who actually provides life.

The Prime Minister explained that the teacher and the student, both have a unique importance for each other. He said that teachers should also write about their experiences with various children. He said teachers consider all students as important, and should remember them all – not just the ones who excelled academically.

The Prime Minister recalled former President Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam, and said Dr. Kalam wanted to be remembered as a teacher. He said that Dr. Kalam had a passion for teaching, and he was interacting with students even upto the final moments of his life.

The Prime Minister said India had great teachers even today, who were helping to create engineers, doctors and scientists that were making a mark globally. He said the aim of teachers should be to avoid creating robots, but to nurture an entire generation.

Union Minister for Human Resource Development Smt. Smriti Zubin Irani, and Union Ministers of State Shri Upendra Kushwaha, Shri Ram Shankar Katheria, and Shri Jayant Sinha were present on the occasion.

Seventh Pay Commission Likely To See Pay Hikes By 40%

New Delhi: The Seventh Pay Commission’s report is likely be submitted to the Finance Minister Arun Jaitley shortly.

Sources said that there will be no internal relief. The average increase in basic fair pay for all government employees will be in the region of 40-45%.

This is a very rough average because for senior level officers, like the Cabinet Secretary or officials at the secretary level, the payback could increase by more than 50%.

The Pay Panel may recommend a new pay scale from January 1, 2016. The existing HRA would be retained for A1 cities; while there would be a 15-20% hike for other cities.

But interestingly when we spoke to government employees they were not really happy, essentially perhaps because effectively if you take the DA out, it is not really a hefty bonanza as many thought it would be.

Also, given the price rise and inflation issues, most people are saying it is really not that sufficient. Most of these recommendations will be implemented.

But the point is, if the Finance Minister Arun Jaitley has a problem with any of the observations or with the impact of the Pay Commission recommendations, he might even send this back to the Pay Commission for another round of iteration.

In that case, some amendments will be made that come back to the Finance Ministry and then it may go back to the Cabinet for approval. If that happens, it could delay the process by about 1-2 more months.

A central government employee will earn up to 40% more if the government accepts the Seventh Pay commission’s proposals, which will be submitted shortly.

This pay hike would affect the lives of over 48 lakh central government employees and 55 lakh pensioners and could trigger off similar pay hike across state governments as well.

An official of the Pay Commission, says recommendations will be made to improve productivity.

The Commission will be talked of market driven compensation at the top level, where there are expert persons required by the government. There should be open competition with the public. If they have a better candidate from outside, he should be appointed instead of simply promoting people by seniority, said the official.
