become necessary to make payment of arrears on account of the revision in the scales of
pay and other benefits from the relevant due dates. While calculating the House Rent
18
Allowance, City Compensatory Allowance, care has to be taken to ensure that the
instructions contained herein are strictly followed. Broadly, payment of
arrears/recoveries would arise in respect of the following:-
a) Arrears arising out of fixation in the revised scale of pay and allowances;
b) Change in the basic pay and allowances because of grant of Normal Grade
Increment/Stagnation Increment/Promotion to the higher cadre;
c) Subsistence Allowance;
d) Difference in Encashment of Privilege Leave;
e) Fixed Personal Allowance/Difference in Fixed Personal Allowance;
f) Recovery on account of EOL, strike, walk-out, etc.;

k) Transfer Grant;
l) Revision of Special Area Allowance.
m) North-Eastern States Educational Allowance
n) Functional Allowance for Programmers or System Analysts etc.
o) Cash Medical Benefit
p) Revision of Hill Allowance.
32. INCOME-TAX DEDUCTION:
In respect of Income-tax to be deducted from the arrears, the instructions issued by the
Finance & Accounts Department in this regard may be followed.
33. INFORMATION TO BE FURNISHED TO THE CENTRAL OFFICE:
After payment of arrears, the Divisional Office should furnish the information in respect
of total amount paid by the offices under their control under various components
mentioned in the proforma to the controlling Zonal Office. Information only in respect
of consolidated amounts paid by way of arrears under each head should be furnished and
not the amount paid to the individual employees. The Zonal Offices shall, in turn,
19
furnish the consolidated information in respect of the zone as a whole to the
Personnel/ER Department, Central Office. All other offices not covered by the above
shall directly furnish the information to the Personnel/ER Department, Central Office.
34. DATE OF PAYMENT:
The arrears may be paid as early as possible.
35. INTERPRETATION:
Where any doubt or difficulty arises as to the interpretation of these instructions it shall
be referred to the Chairman for his decision.
