Pay Fixation on MACP as per 6th Pay Commission – Some Illustrations
Modified Assured Career Progression Scheme (MACPS)
MACP clarifications is given with useful illustrations for Defence Civilian Employees. This type of explanations is very useful to know and clarify the doubts of the new scheme. Wittingly to clear in the particular subject, because it is connecting with lifetime promotion of every employee.
This scheme for career upgradations to Central Govt. employees was introduced with effect from 1-09-2008 with introduction of revised pay rules 2008.
This scheme has replaced earlier scheme of Assured Career Progression Scheme of August 1999.
Under this scheme, an employee would get at least three career upgradations during his entire service on completion of 10,20 and 30 years of service.
Under this scheme an employee would be placed in next higher grade pay on completion of 10 years in previous grade and in case of no promotion has been offered to him.
a. Illustrations of Grant of MACP – Illustration – 1
In case of recruitment of an individual in Grade Pay (GP) of Rs.4200 with no promotion for 10 years,
1st financial upgradation after 10 years with GP-Rs.4600;
2nd financial upgradation after (10+10) 20 years with GP- Rs.4800;

Illustration – 2
In case of recruitment of an individual in Grade Pay (GP) of Rs.4200 with first promotion after 5 years with GP of Rs. 4600,
The promotion will be considered as 1st financial upgradation;
2nd financial Up gradation after (5+10) 15 years with GP-Rs.4800;
3rd financial up-gradation after (5+10+10) 25 years with GP-Rs.5400.

In case of recruitment of an individual in Grade Pay (GP) of Rs.4200 with 1st promotion in 5 years with GP-Rs.4600 and 2nd promotion after 8 years,(5+8=13 years) with GP of Rs.4800,
He will get only 3rd financial up-gradation after (5+8+10) 23 years with GP-Rs.5400.
b. Norms for grant of MACP
The financial up gradation would be on non-functional basis subject to fitness in the hierarchy of pay band and grade pay.
The only benchmark of “Good” would be applicable till the grade pay of Rs.6600 in PB-3.
The benchmark will be “Very Good” for financial upgradation to the grade pay of Rs.7600 and above.
However, if the financial upgradation under the MACPS also happen to be in the promotional grade and benchmark for promotion is lower than the benchmark for granting the benefits under MACPS as mentioned in Para 17 of the scheme, the benchmark for promotion shall apply to MACP also.
c. Clarifications on MACP
If the promotional hierarchy as per recruitment rules is such that promotions are earned in the same grade pay, then the same shall be counted for the purposes of MACP.
Only the continuous regular service is counted towards qualifying service and the regular service shall commence from the date of joining in direct entry grade on the MACP envisages merely placement in the immediate next higher grade pay as given in Section1, Part A of first schedule of the CCS (Revised Pay) Rules 2008.
Financial upgradation will also be admissible whenever a person has spent 10 years in the same grade pay.
Only regular service rendered in the Central Govt. Department/Office would be counted for the purposes of grant of MACP.
All tenures spent on deputation, Foreign Service, study leave, all kind of leave, shall be included in the regular service.
d. The benefits of MACP are admissible upto HAG scale of Rs. 67000-79000.
All cases of grant of promotions/ACPs under pre-revised pay scales of Rs. 5000-8000, Rs. 5500-9000, Rs. 6500-10500 and Rs. 7400-11500 and if those merged w.e.f. 1-1-2006 would be ignored for purpose of grant of financial upgradation under the scheme.

Sir, I joined Govt Service in the year 1997 in Grade Pay 4200/- I was promoted in September 2003 and my grade pay was enhanced to Rs 4600.. In the year 2013 I was granted 2nd MACP and my pay was fixed after giving one increment of 3% plus the difference of grade pay of Rs 4800- Rs 4600 under Pay Band 2.
I got regular promotion to the Grade Pay of 5400/- under PB 3 in August 2016. At the time of promotion, I was not given an increment by my department citing the reason that I was given MACP of Rs 4800/- under Pay Band 2 so as per MACP OM of 2009, I was not eligible for one increment. My pay was fixed in the next cell matrix of Level 10 from the Cell matrix of Level 9.
My question is- am I eligible for grant of 1 increment at the time of my promotion in August 2016 when my pay band changed from PB-2 to PB-3..
No increment. From 1/9/2008 O.M. in MACP Scheme additional increment given and basic pay fixed to next level. Normal promotions are no monitory benefits only designation changes in view of the vacant post/retirement. Now your level 9 only. In Service one has get only three promotions or 3 MACP of every completion of 10 years. You are UPGRADED from GP 1) 4200 to 4600, 2) 4600 to 4800, & 3) 4800 to 5400 matrix levels 7,8 & 9. Every year upto retirement you will get stages of increments in level 9.
sir I was not given the 1st MACP and the office told me that since you have been promoted you will get not get the first MACP. You will get MACP in 2013. Accordingly when the MACP was given in 2013, they termed it as 2nd MACP.
There was one error in my submission earlier, I was promoted in august 2016 from grade pay of 4800/- in Level 8 to Grade Pay of Rs 5400 in Level 10. Since there was a change in the Pay Band, I should have been given one increment at the time of promotion. Recently there was a circular of the Govt of India wherein those promoted between 1.1.16 till 25.7.17 were given the option to submit their revised option. I have given my option for fixation of pay from DNI. Will my pay be fixed as per this OM by giving me one increment of the lowest post and placing me in the next cell of Level 10 under PB-3.
Check up with your basic pay with GP 4800 as on 31/12/2015 x 2.57 fixed at level 8 in one increment and fixed in the level 9 on your promotion date (first they might have been given 3% of old pay then they changed). Further this is to inform you that you cannot be in LEVEL 10 because that level is only for Group A entry I. e. new recruits ( ₹ 15600 – 39100 PB 3). Moreover check up with your basic pay in this site 7thCPC PROMOTION OR MACP OPTION CALCULATOR & OPTION FOR FIXATION OF PAY ON PROMOTION FROM THE DATE OF NEXT INCREMENT.. DO IT I & INFORM FOR SATISFACTION. OTHERWISE mention your basic pay with GP total as 31/12/2015 & inform the date of promotion, I will do the calculations extractly as on date.
Latest Min. Of Finance O.M. No.F.No.25-2/2017-IC/E.III(A) Ft. 18/6/2018 whether this order is suitable to your department,on completion of 4 years in GP 4800 it will be of GP 5400 LEVEL 9 from 1/1/2016 to you also.
Further this is to inform you that since you have promoted on 2003 you should not given MACP on 2007 & your 2nd MACP on 2017 at that time additional one increment should be given in level 8. Since there’s no promotional benefits from 6th CPC & 7th CPC because there’s no pay scales for the separate posts, only for new entries/recruiter’s having entry pay with GP. It seems your office had not followed the rules properly, in future you will have recovery. Sorry to inform you earlier.
Sir
