Normally the Government of India donot allow pay protection. However you should have got clarification before joining.The government normally stick to the grade and pay as mentioned in the advertisement.

Sir,

   Not possible. You have not informed the date of Joining  and leaving  in  the old  Station. And also not informed whter any GPF/EPF were deducted from your salary.

I have joined on 13-12-10 and in indian railways no epf is being deducted as here is New pension scheme.

 

Also Delhi High cout had given the order to provide Pay protection even a person is switching job from PSU to central goverment. as follows:-

In these circumstances, we hold that the distinction sought to be drawn between candidates selected from non government bodies through interview and those selected through open competitive examination is sans rationale justification. Protecting the pay of one and not protecting the pay of the other set of candidates is completely arbitrary and illogical. The purpose behind grant of pay protection was to draw talent from organisations like PSUs. The best talent is drawn through the Civil Services Examination.  Emcouraging employees of PSUs to sit for such examination which is highly competitive is in line with the purpose behind the OM of 1989 of attracting the best talent. Even assuming that for the purposes of pay protection, the distinction between selection through interview and selection through open competitive examination does hold a rational nexus, the Civil Services Examination, through which the petitioner has been selected also comprises a comprehensive interview. Therefore denial of pay protection benefit to the petitioner is unjustified and illegal.16. We are informed that the petitioner's pay scale as on 9.6.1999 in VSNL would be in the scale of Rs.

13,350 " 18250, by virtue of revision in pay scale given effect to by VSNL vide office order dated 6.10.2000 w.e.f. 1.1.1997.

17. Therefore in view of the foregoing discussions , we set aside orders dated 28.11.2003, 12.8.2003 as well

as letters dated 9.7.2002 and 7.8.2002 and allow the writ petition holding petitioner eligible for pay protection.

The writ petition stands allowed in the above terms.

Dear Sir,

I am an exservicemen retired from Indian Navy in the Pay Band of PB2.My last basic at the time of retirement was-

B.P-12730/-

GP-4200/-

'X' Gp Pay-1400/-

MSP-2000/-

I was recruited in Indian Navy under Direct Entry Diploma Entry(DEDH) entry in Feb 2000.The initial engangement for this entry was 10 years (Non-Pensionable Service),Thus,it was a special entry unlike in Army/Airforce in PBOR's where Airmrn/Jawans are recruited for a minimum of 20/15 years with pensionable service.I retired in the month of Feb 2010.Relevant to mention that my call up service was 03 years i.e  upto Feb 2013.

After retirement I applied through SSC (Northern Region) in DGAQA,Min of Defence for the post of Scientific Assistant for which the last date of applying was 24th May 2010.IThe interview was conducted in the month of nOV 2011.The result was declared in the month of Jan 2012 and I finally joined in the month of July 2012 in mynew deptt.

I am initially fixed in the pay band of 9300-34800,PB2 with Initial basic of 9300

My question based on the above is-

a) Am I eligible for pay protection?

b) Do I need to return Gratuty/leave encashment from my previous deptt for pay protection?

c) Is a gap between two services a constraint in getting that?
