Sir,
I was given 7th cpc fixation on August 2016 and later i have been promoted from 2800 G. P to 4200 GP in the month of September 2018. If I was been in 6th cpc till my promotion than I would get 42300 basic on September 2016 itself which amount of basic has been getting now i.e. on 01.07.2018. In that case is there any possibility to switch over my pay in 6th CPC till my promotion i. e. till September 2016 at present.
It seems in September 16 promotion is your designation changes only, in September,18 was upgraded basic pay in view of the completion of 10 year as MACP. This is to inform you that from the 7th CPC there is monitory benefits in normal promotions, only your designation changes (examples from LDC to UDC). In the 7th CPC there is no pay scales for designated promotions, by upgraded basic pay as MACP on completion of every 10th year as your matrix level changes i.e. from 5 to 6 (GP 2800 to 4200), Now your option period was over.
