Increment issue to those retiring on 30th June – SLP dismissed by Supreme Court
Increment issue for those who retired or retiring on 30th June – Review Petition filed by the Government of India dismissed by the Suprement Court on 8th August, 2019.
Central Government employees are eligible to grant annual increment on 1st July of every year after 12 months completion of service. In case of an employee retired on 31st June, even though he has completed full year of service from 1st July to 31st June, he is not entitled for annual increment.
Grant of one notional increment for the purpose of pensionary benefits to retirees those who retired on 30th June. This is the essence of this case.
Supreme Court dismissed the review petition 1731/2019 filed by the Government based on the merit of case.
Please take up this with the Central Government of India for issue of general order so that large number of pensioners who have retired on 30th June can the benefit of notional increment for pension calculation.
Thanking you,
