Pay Fixation in the New Pay Structure
Fitment Factor for CG Employees: Uniform Fitment factor of 2.57 is being proposed to be applied uniformly for all employees.
It includes a factor of 2.25 on account of DA neutralisation, assuming that the rate of Dearness Allowance would be 125 per cent at the time of implementation of the new pay. [Para 5.1.27 in 7th CPC Report]
Fitment Factor for Defence Personnel: The starting point of a Sepoy (and equivalent), the entry-level personnel in the defence forces, has been fixed in the Defence Pay Matrix at Rs.21,700.
The fitment in the new matrix is essentially multiple factors of 2.57. This multiple is the ratio of the new minimum pay arrived at by the Commission (Rs.18,000) and the existing minimum pay (Rs.7,000). The fitment factor is being applied uniformly to all employees.
An identical fitment of 2.57 has also been applied to the existing rates of Military Service Pay (MSP), applicable to Defence forces personnel only [Para 5.2.7 in 7th CPC Report]

Sir,
I am getting an annual increment on 1st July. The last increment date was 1.7.2021. My second MACP is due on 26.03.2021. My existing pay is Rs. 47600 (Level 6). Which option for pay fixation is good for me.
If it is your less than 3rd pay fixation now July increment option is good, so from 1-7-21 with 2increments of 55200 in MATRIX LEVEL 7 & from 1-7-22 onwards in MATRIX LEVEL 8″ of 55,200 (since it is same pay only).
This reply is to GAURAV ( below)
ADITYA : This answer is for you : July increment option is good, so you will get from 1-7–21 as 50,500 & also fix in same amount in MATRIX LEVEL 7 on 1-7-22 of 52500.
I got a promotion on 1.2.2021 in level 8 4800 GP. now my basic is 52000 in level 7 4600 GP. I get my annual increment in January. and my DOB is 1st week of June 1990. in what way I get my pay fixation done so that it is beneficial to me throughout my life
Your answer is above (ADITYA) as 55,200.
I got a promotion from 11 Jan 2021. My basic is 52000 in the level 6 (GP 4200) and going to get promoted to level 6 (GP 4600). What way I get my fixation done and which is beneficial to me? Please give me suggestion / guidance.
If you’re promotion less than fourth July increment option is good. From 1-7-21 as 56900 in MATRIX LEVEL 6 & from 1-7-22 as 58600 in MATRIX LEVEL 7 (GP 4600).
Sir My doubt is that by getting selection scale with change in Grade pay in February 2016 and retired in May 2016, will there be any benefit or will the senior scale only be considered for fixing in the new grade pay
You are benefited only GRADE PAY in will eligible from 2/16.
Sir thanks for the prompt reply. I need further clarification on this subject. In the senior scale, I was placed in level 10 (77000 Grade. Pay 5400). selection scale they have placed me in level 11 ( 78500) in the Grade pay 6600. Is this correct? Am I eligible for one increment or 3 percent to be added in the senior scale and then correspondingly to be fixed in selection scale. Please reply.
Your pay fixation of Rs.78500 in Matrix Level 11 is correct. Your increment was as per the old grade of Rs.6600-5400 – 1200 x 2.57 = 3,084 that is increment as per rules of 6th CPC given in 7th CPC. This is to inform you that in the 6th CPC only the grade pay changes for promotion/MACP pay fixation. In the 7th CPC INCREMENT will be give as old matrix level & optional increment of promotional pay will be fixed will be given after January/July. In your case it is not possible because you are retired in May,2016 and also not eligible in July 16 & January 17. In the 7th CPC your option increment only in January,17 in Matrix level 11 as per the rules.
Thank you very much Sir for the clarification given. Wishing you a happy New year.
Sir/Madam, I was employed in Air Force as civilian employee in the scale of 330-560 on 07 Nov 1983. I was not given ACP from 09 Aug 1999 as I refused promotion offered to me on 23 Jul 1999. CAT Allahabad in its order allowed ACP to me vide order dated 26 May 2003 which was challenged in High Court in Jul 2003 by the Govt without any stay/interim order. Case was pending for long time and final order to grant ACP benefit to me along with consequential benefits just one day before my retirement i.e. 29 Apr 2019. High Court order was in my favour allowing me ACP setting aside refusal of promotion as ground for refusal of ACP from 09 Aug 1999. I was due for 2nd ACP from 07 Nov 2003 after completion of 20 years of service.
In the mean time I was offered promotion many times on 25 Mar 2004, 07 Aug 2007, 29 Apr 2009, 29 Nov 2011, 19 Nov 2014 and 05 Jan 16 which was accepted (promotion from 05 Jan 2016) by me apprehending retirement on 30 Apr 2019 without and ACP/MACP/Promotion in my life time of service. I have received ACP benefit from 09 Aug 1999 without any further ACP/MACP (2nd ACP due on 07 Nov 2003, 10 yrs, or 3rd MACP). My cadre has only one promotion during whole career. Please convey me if I am due for any ACP/MACP on merit considering above facts.
Regards.

(July increment will not be given.).January increment option is good otherwise you DNI on 1-7-22 in Level 6.only of Rs.37,600/-.. So your January increment will get six months early higher pay.
I am to inform you that I got the promotion on 01.10.2020 as a Head Clerk (Level – 6) and my existing Pay is Rs.40400/- (Level – 5 / Cell -12). Three years before, I got the MACP (24/02/2017) in the grade Pay of Rs.2800/-. Now I have given the option for (b) on the basis of F.R.22(I)(a)(1) which may be refixed on the basis of said Rules on the date of accrual of next increment in the present scale of pay (i.e. lower scale of Pay) with effect from 01.10.2020. My regular annual increment in the month of January. Kindly calculate and inform about the Pay Fixation as on 01.01.2021 and accordingly, the Rule 10, I am eligible for getting the one more increment in the month of July 2021.

As per Rule 10, the next increment falls due on 01/07/2021 is Rs.43600/-. Is it right or not, kindly clarify it Sir and it will be confused .The SAO’s have suggested that to opted the above option and clarify it which one is beneficial to me. If you want any information regarding this, please kindly contact my email.
Previous rule was only for MACP since it is given after 10years for those who are not promoted in between that 10years. Now the rules are change to give promotion & MACP. The increment option given January/july the will be given annual basis. If choosing July option six months increment will get lost for the retiring on 30th June retirees, so January option also selected for increment. In you’re case if you choose July option then promotion increment given on 1-1-21 & also in both lower scale ( MATRIX) on 7/21 & DNI on 7/22.
Further to inform you that if you’re promotionMACP in between 2/1 -’30/6 & 2/7 to 31/12 it will also January option is good so you will be getting july increment & January increment respectively in July higher MATRIX LEVEL. Government intention that not to give additional increment of 30th June/31th December retiree of pension benefits on completion one year. So it is will of the government employees option they choose & not to blame government.
