Quick Summary

If your annual increment has been withheld due to a suspension, even if it's now revoked and an inquiry is pending, you may have grounds to appeal. While increments can be paused during suspension, withholding them indefinitely without a penalty order after reinstatement is generally not permissible. You are entitled to a suspension allowance and the right to be informed of the inquiry's progress. Consider formally requesting the completion of the inquiry and appealing the non-release of your increment.

A state government employee's increment can remain suspended if they were suspended and the suspension was revoked.
If a government employee is suspended, their annual increment may not be paid during the suspension period.
If a court of law sets aside a penalty of dismissal, removal, or compulsory retirement, the employee may be suspended again.
If the suspension period ends and the employee is reinstated, the employer should initiate the reinstatement process.
During suspension, an employee retains certain rights: Entitlement to Suspension Allowance: The employee is entitled to receive a suspension allowance during the suspension period.
: The right to be informed of the reasons for suspension and any pending investigations.

You have been reinstated from 25.10.2023 but to date, the enquiry has not been completed, you may submit a request to the appointing authority to take the necessary steps to complete the enquiry.
As the inquiry is pending, the increment cannot be sanctioned until the final orders are issued by the competent authority.

You main question is non release of increment.
This amounts to unwritten penalty. You can appealing the same. There is no rule allowing stoppage of increment without a penalty order.

Yes, there is no legal provision to deny increments just because the employee was under suspension and the inquiry is not yet completed.
