Normally it has been advised by the administrative Department that …
For Option -I
The Government servants those who are not getting Promotion or Upgradation between 1st January 2016 to 1st July 2016 should select No.1 Option i.e electing to revise the Pay with effect from 1.1.2016
For Option -II
The Government servants those who got Promotion / upgradation in the Period between 2st January 2016 and 1st July 2016 will have to select any one of the conditions given in Option No.2 after working out their Pay as per the choices given. Because which Option is beneficial to them is depends on the Basic Pay and Period of Service in the Pre revised Scale. The cases may vary individual to individual.
It is to be noted that one can choose to revise his pay from his next Increment date in Normal Conditions also. Because if revising the pay after granting one increment is beneficial than revising pay from 1st January 2016, he will be allowed to choose the option of I elect to continue on Pay band and Grade Pay of my substantive post until the date of my next increment.
It is observed that selecting revising pay from the Date of next increment in second Option is beneficial in rare cases.

In all Options other than 1st January 2016 YOU SHOULD BE READY TO FORGO ARREARS FOR THE PERIOD FROM 1ST JANUARY TO THE DATE YOU SELECT TO REVISE YOUR PAY.
If you are ready to forego arrears, then you calculate your pay on 1st January 2016 and 1st July 2016 with an increment and select which one is beneficial to you and go according to that.
How to calculate in normal conditions if there is no promotion involved…
A. As on 1.1.2016

If B is Higher than A , You can select the date of my next increment Date in Option no.2. i.e Revising the Pay with effect from 1st July 2016

I have been promoted in pay scale 4200 from 2800 on 06/02/2017. Can I give option to fix my pay of 7cpc w.e.f. date of promotion i.e. 06.02.17 by forgoing benefits of 7 cpc.
Sir, one officer got promotion to grade pay 4800 from grade pay 4600 with effect from 1st April,2017. His pay in pay matrix was Rs. 49000 in level 7. Now he is giving option form that he will not take monetary benefit from 1st July,2017 i.e. from his date of increment. In stead he will take double increment from 1st July,2017. Is this process right?
As per CCS RP Rules 2016{7th CPC}, employee can opt to elect Revised pay w.e.f. July 2016 if it is beneficial to him. what will be the date of next increment in this condition. Will he get next increment on January 2017 and subsequent increments on January 2018, 2019, and so on.
My upgradetion from grade pay 2800 to 4200 has been granted wef 12/7/16 as per CCS (rp)2016 according to rule5 para 3 in cases of promotion/upgradetion between 1st jan to date of notification I. e 25/7/16 one can elect to draw with existing pay structure and further will switch over to revised structure from his date of promotion/ upgradetion
Sir pse clarify whether I have entitled to get grade pay 4200 or otherwise as I m still not submitting my option
