The CG Employees are due for pay revision w.e.f. 2016. Most of the state governments are revising the pay of their employees based on the recommendations of the Central Pay Commission.

The DA for the Central Government employees has reached 113% of their pay. It has been the practice that, when the DA increases more than 50%, it should be merged with pay so that the workers will not be losing much due to the increase in the cost of living.
Though the VII Central Pay Commission has been appointed, the terms of reference given to CPC do not include DA Merger and hence the CPC is denying to give any recommendation in the matter.
As such, it is incumbent on the government to declare DA merger at least to 100% with out any further delay.

RETIRED EMPLOYEES CAN NOW AVAIL BENEFITS OF
MISSED PROMOTIONS
NEW DELHI: Retired government employees who missed out on their promotions due to late meetings of the committees deciding on such departmental elevations will now be able to avail its post-retirement benefits.
“Instructions have been issued to all ministries and departments to give benefit of promotion to those employees who missed it due to late meeting of departmental promotion committee (DPC),” an official in the department of personnel and training (DoPT) said.
It would not be in order if eligible employees, who were within the zone of consideration for the relevant year but are not actually in service when the DPC is being held, are not considered while preparing year-wise zone of consideration or panel, as per the DoPT order.
Consequently, their juniors are considered (in their place) for promotions, who would not have been in the zone of consideration if the DPC had been held in time, it said.
“Appointment committee of Cabinet has observed that DPCs often do not consider such eligible officers who are retiring before the occurrence of the vacancy in the panel year,” the order said, adding that this “undesirable trend negate the very purpose” of government’s existing instructions for inclusion of such employees.
There have been reports that some of the eligible retired employees are not being given the benefit of promotion which they missed due to late DPCs. In fact the DPCs were being held very late, the official said.
The DoPT has asked all central government ministries and departments under it to ensure “strict compliance” of its instructions to include retiring employees for promotions in case the DPCs are delayed.
Such retired officials would, however, have no right for actual promotion, the DoPT official said.
