2. from the date of next increment.
Choose increment from January, so from 1-1-2020 as Rs.50,500 & 1-1-21 as Rs. 52,000/-.
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.
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?
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.
