Pay Fixation Benefit to those employees who are promoted after availing the benefit of MACP: Item No. NC-49/8/26 of 49th Meeting of NC (JCM)
Minutes of the 49th Meeting of the National Council (JCM) held on 11.05.2026 under the Chairmanship of Cabinet Secretary
(DoP&T O.M. No. 3/1/2025-JCA dated 03.06.2026)
Item No. NC-49/8/26: Grant of Pay Fixation Benefit to those employees who are promoted after availing the benefit of MACP (DoPT)
After getting MACP, when an employee is promoted, the benefit under FR-22(1)(a)(1) is not given. The demand is that employees who were given pay fixation benefit on MACP, should also be given fixation benefit under FR-22(1)(a)(1) when the employee is promoted to a higher post carrying higher responsibility.
Shri Sivaji Vasireddy, Member, Staff Side mentioned that earlier, the difference in grade pay was admissible in case of promotion after MACP. Shri Ajay, Member, Staff Side also mentioned some anomalies that have been taken up in past.
Shri C. Srikumar, Member, Staff Side stated that during 611 CPC the employee who got MACP prior to regular promotion, was given the benefit of pay fixation under FR 22(1)(a)(1) and when he was promoted to the next higher post, even though fixation benefit was not given, he got the grade pay difference. Since 7th CPC has dispensed with the Grade pay system, the demand for granting one additional increment on promotion after MACP is justified and government may consider the same favourably.
Decision: Chairman desired that specific cases may be examined but larger policy issue may be left for 8thCPC to decide.
