OFFICE MEMORANDUM
Subject: Date of next increment in cases where Government servants are not able join posts in a particular grade pay on promotion/appointment on 1st of January of a year due to Sunday or Gazetted Holiday – Clarification regarding.
As per the provisions of Rule 10 of CCS (RP) Rules, 2008, w.e.f. 1.1.2006, in the case of all Central Government employees there is a uniform date of increment, i.e. 1st July of every year.
Government servants completing six months and above in the revised pay structure as on 1st of July are eligible to be granted the increment. From the above provision of CCS (RP) Rules it flows that Government servants who have rendered less than 6 months of service as on 1st of July of a year will not be eligible to draw increment on that day and their date of increment will fall 12 months later on the next 1st of July.
Accordingly, all the Government servants who join posts in a particular grade on account of promotion / appointment etc., on 1st of January of a year will be eligible to draw their annual increment on the 1st of July of that year. However, those who join the posts between 2nd January and 30th June, will not be eligible for the same.
In the light of the above position, some administrative departments have sought clarification from this Department regarding date of next increment in cases where Government servants are not able join posts in a particular grade pay on promotion / appointment on 1st of January of a year due to 1st of January falling on a Sunday or Gazetted holiday.
In this connection, it is clarified that in the normal course, if a Government servant was to join post in a grade pay on appointment / promotion on 1st of January of the year happened to be a Sunday or Gazetted holiday, the Government servants who join posts on the 1st working day of the year will be treated to have completed 6 months of service on 1st of July of that year for the purpose of granting them annual increment on that day.

Dear sir,
I joined in service 30 January 2012, i got 1 year 5 months late increment, till to now i did’t get any promotion, so is their any chance to get increment in january.
Thanking you sir
From the 6th CPC increment is from July to June on completion one year increment in July only, not from the joining date/month. Moreover if any up-gradation in pay from July to December on completion of six months then the increment will change in January only.
My joining date 19.03.2012 and i promoted after 5 year on 19.03.2017. in the joining year my increments done after 16 months and in the promotion year my increment done will be after 9 months. now i suffering both of the cases. Is that any clarification please tell me
From the joininng year increment should complete one-year, normal increment is from July only.i.e. from 7/13. Next you got promotion in 3/17 got higher next grade so you got before increment then on completion of 6 month in promotion from July to December your increment was fixed from January 2018. Your next increment will be on 1/1/2019.
If the increment is released on 1st July 2017 and the government servant is on leave or absent on 1st July 2018 and joins on 3rd July 2018 then when to release the increment? Is it on 1st July or 3rd July?
If the leave is C.L on 2nd , increment from 1/7/18, EL./COMMITTED LEAVE/E.O.L it will be only increment from 3rd or joining duty on that day.
whether this rule is appicable for new appointments also
Please tell me what will be result if a govt employee joins on 2nd april2012, 1st being sunday, now can he wll be eligible for promotion for completed 5years of service as on 01st april, 2017??????…please help
Is it applicable to those officials only who get promoted on 1st of january? Please clarify it if promotion happens to be on other date and falls on saturday and sunday or gazzeted holiday.how to fix dni in other case.
I think the service Rules are Framed for the smooth functioning of the offices and for the benefit of the employees. Therefore, the Rule 10 of CCS (RP) Rules 2008 appears to be meaningless.
From the language only the office order u have attached herein does not look like an authentic/original one. moreover, this is very surprising that there is no specific order/rule regarding this matter even as it is a matter of serious concern for all CG employees. Everyone has only guess and suggestion but no concrete answer. Very sad.
