Mobile Money Transfer service, in Karnataka Circle,
M S Ramanujan said the service would be of great help to migrant population, who, otherwise, have to rely on other modes of money transfer. It will also benefit students who study away from their home towns, he added.
Using this service one can transfer minimum of Rs 1,000 and maximum of Rs 10,000. To use the service, senders would need to visit the post offices in the region where the service is available, deposit the amount and give the receiver’s details. After this, they would get a 16 digit transfer code on their mobile phone, which they would need to send to the recipient via SMS. The recipient can claim the money at a nearby post office, by showing the transaction code and verifying his identity. Recipient also needs to withdraw the money within 7 days of transaction.
The objective of the service is to lower the cost of transaction to enable transaction of even very small amounts. The charge for transferring Rs 1,000 to Rs 1,500 will be Rs 45, while for transferring Rs 1,501 to Rs 5,000, the fee will be Rs 79 and for Rs 5,001 to Rs 10,000, the commission will be Rs 120 including service tax.

OFFICE
MEMORANDUM
Subject: - Grant of
Non-Productivity Linked Bonus (ad-hoc bonus) to Central Government Employees
for the year 2012-13.
The undersigned is
directed to convey the sanction of the President to the grant of
Non-Productivity Linked Bonus (Ad-hoc Bonus) equivalent to 30 days emoluments
for the accounting year 2012-13 to the Central Government employees in Groups
C’ and D and all non-gazetted employees in Group ‘B’, who are not covered by
any Productivity Linked Bonus Scheme. The calculation ceiling for payment of
ad-hoc Bonus under these orders shall continue to be monthly emoluments of Rs.
3500/-, as hitherto. The payment of ad-hoc Bonus under these orders will also
be admissible to the eligible employees of Central Para Military Forces and
Armed Forces. The orders will be deemed to be extended to the employees of
Union Territory Administration which follow the Central Government pattern of
emoluments and are not covered by any other bonus or ex-gratia scheme.
2. The benefit will be
admissible subject to the following terms and conditions:
(i) Only those
employees who were in service as on 31.3.2013 and have rendered at least six
months of continuous service during the year 2012-13 will be eligible for
payment under these orders. Pro-rata payment will be admissible to the eligible
employees for period of continuous service during the year from six months to a
full year, the eligibility period being taken in terms of number of months of
service (rounded off to the nearest number of months).
(ii) The quantum of
Non-PLB (ad-hoc bonus) will be worked out on the basis of average
emoluments/calculation ceiling whichever is lower. To calculate Non-PLB (Ad-hoc
bonus) for one day, the average emoluments in a year will be divided by 30.4
(average number of days in a month). This will thereafter be multiplied by the
number of days of bonus granted. To illustrate, taking the calculation ceiling
of monthly emoluments of Rs. 3500 (where actual average emoluments exceed Rs.
3500), Non-PLB (Ad-hoc Bonus) for thirty days would work out to Rs.
3500×30/30.4=Rs.3453.95 (rounded off to Rs.3454/-).
(iii) The casual labour
who have worked in offices following a 6 days week for at least 240 days for
each year for 3 years or more(206 days in each year for 3 years or more in the
case of offices observing 5 days week), will be eligible for this Non-PLB
(Ad-hoc Bonus) Payment. The amount of Non-PLB (ad-hoc bonus) payable will be
(Rs.1200×30/30.4 i.e.Rs.1184.21 (rounded off to Rs.1184/-). In cases where the
actual emoluments fall below Rs.1200/- p.m., the amount will be calculated on
actual monthly emoluments.
(iv) All payments under
these orders will be rounded off to the nearest rupee.
(v) The clarificatory
orders issued vide this Ministry’s OM No.F.14 (10)—E. Coord/88 dated 4.10.1988,
as amended from time to time, would hold good.
3. The expenditure on
this account will be debitable to the respective Heads to which the pay and
allowances of these employees are debited.
4. The expenditure
incurred on account of Non-PLB (Ad-hoc Bonus) is to be met from within the
sanctioned budget provision of concerned Ministries/Departments for the current
year.
5. In so far as the
persons serving in the Indian Audit and Accounts Department are concerned,
these orders are issued in consultation with the Comptroller and Auditor
General of India.

What is “Hierarchy”
Generally we all know that the word
‘Hierarchy’ means ‘an arrangement of items’. The same word plays an important
role among the government employees. An employee who gets promoted from lower
pay-scale to higher pay-scale as a result of promotion, the formation of pay
structure is called ‘Promotional Hierarchy’.
It is very normal that each and
every central government employee is eager to get a promotion in his service.
The advancement of an employee from one grade to another grade is called
promotion. That pattern of pay structure for promotion, which gives one grade
to another grade with pay range is called ‘Promotional Hierarchy’.
In every central government
departments, various staff are working together, but their pay differs.
Promotion is provided on the basis of their own promotional hierarchy of
category of post. Hierarchy is not common for all employees. It maintained
‘Basic Pay Structure’ for every category of post in every departments. Even
though, the same category of employees working in different departments, they
may have also different promotional hierarchy.
Initially in 2008, 6th CPC had
recommended the new Grade Pay structure for all Central Government employees,
this formation also called ‘Hierarchy of Grade Pay’. This Grade Pay Hierarchy
is common for all employees, but ‘Promotional Hierarchy’ will differ to each
category. In 5th CPC, the order in pay structure was 3050, 3200, 4000, 4500,
5000, 5500, 6500.., but all the employees didn’t get promotion in this order.
Every department has different pattern of pay structure for promotion. This is
known as ‘Promotional Hierarchy’.
Erstwhile ACP Scheme was based on
‘Promotional Hierarchy’.
The Modified ACP Scheme is based on
‘Grade Pay Hierarchy’.
An employee getting promotion as per
his ‘Promotional Hierarchy’, whereas an employee getting MACP upgradation as
per ‘Grade Pay Hierarchy’. The Grade Pay has created many anomalies within a
single cadre. Hence, all the Trade Unions and Federations summarily rejected
and insisted that grade pay of the next promotional post to be granted under
the new MACP Scheme instead of granting next higher grade pay in the revised
grade pay hierarchy. One more alternative also given by staff side in MACP Core
meeting held on 25.2.2010 that the first two MACPs after 10 and 20 years should
be to the next promotional post as per the hierarchy of respective department
as under the erstwhile ACP scheme and thereafter the third MACP in the next
grade pay of the revised pay band and grade pay.
Finally, Dopt has ordered to send
the necessary information in respect of specific categories of employees where
the MACPs is less advantageous that the erstwhile ACPS. It is based on the
discussion with the Staff Side in 3rd meeting of the Joint Committee of MACP Scheme
held on 15.03.2011. It identified more in some departments like Railways,
Defence, Urban development, Home affairs and Postal.
We have tabled here for your
information, hierarchy of some different category of post in various
departments…
