The revised pay structure’s increments are now governed by the CCS (RP) Rules 2008. According to Rule 10 of these regulations, there will be a consistent annual increment date, which is July 1st of every year.
Rule 10 of CCS (RP) 2016 governs the date of the next increment for Central Government employees who receive both promotional and annual increments on 1st July due to promotion or MACP. These employees will be eligible for their next increment on the following 1st January. On 29.10.2019, the Department of Expenditure issued an important clarification order regarding the date of the next increment. According to the order, employees who receive promotion/financial upgradation on 1st July and benefit from two increments – the first annual increment due on 1st July and the second notional increment on account of promotion – will accrue their subsequent increment on the following 1st January, after a six-month period has elapsed.

Promotion or MACP Pay Fixation Example
Consider an employee whose current pay scale is Rs. 35,900 in the pay level 5 of the pay matrix table. If this employee receives a promotion on 1.7.2019 and is upgraded to pay level 6, their salary will be fixed according to the existing annual increment rules for CG employees. The process for this is as follows:
Step 1: The employee will receive one increment in their current level 5 on account of promotion or MACP, resulting in a salary of Rs. 37,000.
Step 2: The employee will receive another increment in their current level 5 on account of the annual increment, resulting in a salary of Rs. 38,100.
Step 3: The employee will then be placed in pay level 6, either at an equal or higher value, resulting in a salary of Rs. 38,700.
Step 4: The employee’s next annual increment date will be moved up to 1.1.2020 instead of 1st July 2020.
Index | Pay level 5 | Pay Level 6 |
1 | 29200 | 35400 |
2 | 30100 | 36500 |
3 | 31000 | 37600 |
4 | 31900 | 38700 |
5 | 32900 | 39900 |
6 | 33900 | 41100 |

Still your January increment option is good because six months older MATRIX LEVEL basic pay is required so as on 1-7-20 you will get 53600 in MATRIX LEVEL 7 and also same pay on 1-1-21 of 53600 in MATRIX LEVEL 8 & DNI on 1-1-22 as 55,200. Otherwise you will get July option it will be given on 1-7-22. Six months earlier higher pay i gaifull.
kanchan says
sir , pl suggest we are granted 5400 grade pay to SSO as per railway board recent orders w.e.f 1.01.2016 . MY fixation in 7th CPC in grade pay 4800 was fixed Rs.70000/-
date of next increment was 01.07.2016 Rs 72100
whether we are eligible for option for pay fixation after 1.07.2016 how my pay fixation will be benificial.
my pay in 6th CPC was 22030+4800= 26830 as on 31.12.2015
M.K.KUMAR says
Already fixation seems wrong as on 31-12 2015 – 22030+4800 x 2,57 = 81289.00. So give correct figures.

Choose increment from January, so from 1-1-2020 as Rs.50,500 & 1-1-21 as Rs. 52,000/-.
kundan kumar says
Exercise option for the promotion from 01.07.2020 with two increment one for promotion and one for increment instead of date of actual promotion dated 01.11.2019 and enjoy the difference of level-8 only till 01.07.2020. Next increment would be 01.01.2021 in place of 01.07.2021.
Rita says
Being a central government employee, I would like to mention that I am still deprived of getting increment after my re fixation on july 2019. My office is not granting me increment in the month of jan 2020.
What should I do?
kundan kumar says
For backlog cases dopt issued an order on 29.10.2019 to exercise option within one month of issuing the order. If you submitted the option after issuing of dopt’s order within prescribed time your are illegible for exercising the option on the date of increment in place to date of promotion and next increment will be fixed on following month of January.
