Provided that an employee shall be entitled to only one annual increment either on 1st January or 1st July depending on the date of his appointment, promotion or grant of financial upgradation.

(2) The increment in respect of an employee appointed or promoted or granted financial upgradation including upgradation under Modified Assured Career Progression Scheme (MACPS) during the period between the 2nd day of January and 1st day of July (both inclusive) shall be granted on 1st day of January and the increment in respect of an employee appointed or promoted or granted financial upgradation including upgradation under MACPS during the period between the 2nd day of July and 1st day of January (both inclusive) shall be granted on 1st day of July.

(b) In case of an employee appointed or promoted in the normal hierarchy or under MACPS during the period between 2nd day of January, 2016 and 1st day of July, 2016, who did not draw any increment on 1st day of July, 2016, the next increment shall accrue on 1st day of January, 2017 and thereafter it shall accrue after one year on annual basis:

Provided that in the case of employees whose pay in the revised pay structure has been fixed as on 1st day of January, the next increment in the Level in which the pay was so fixed as on 1st day of January, 2016 shall accrue on 1st day of July, 2016:

Provided further that the next increment after drawal of increment on 1st day of July, 2016 shall accrue on 1st day of July, 2017.

      No. First ANNUAL INCREMENT means on completion of 12 months. So as per the rules you are eligible increment from July 16 onwards as per your basic pay in the eligible MATRIX LEVEL stage.

    Govt. Servants, who were appointed before implementation of 6th CPC i.e. before 01.01.2006 got an additional increment to normalise the anomaly created due to single increment date. However, employees, who were appointed after 01.01.2006, remained looser as date of increment got deferred. Someone joined in January, got increment after about 18 months. Now, as Govt. notified for 2 increment dates, all such employees (2006 and later recruits) must be given the benefit of 1st increment on 01.01.2016 and not on 01.07.2016

    Old and new employees are eligible for increment in January / July as per condition laid down in revised pay rule 2016. The pay arrear calculator should be incorporated for increment in January /July.Before this all the employees were increment in July. When both months are included , should be incorporated.

    One increment should be granted to an employee who stands to retire in between January and July as he completes six or more months since the last increment I.e previous July.
