Sub: Financial up-gradation by ignoring the promotion from the post of Assistant Station Master (ASM) to Station Master (SM) for own-request transferred Section Controllers.

Some doubts/clarification has been raised by Divisions regarding granting of financial up-gradation under MACPs to the category of Section Controllers who have been transferred on own request from other Railway/ Division/ Units with pay protection.

Illustration cited by the division is as under:

Post GP/PLPM Date Details of Apptt/ Promotion/ Transfer Remarks
ASM GP-2800/-, Level-5 13.11.1990 Appointment Initial Appointment
SM GP-4200, Level-6 (5000-8000) 15.07.1996 Promotion. Promotion from ASM to SM not to be reckoned under MACPS w.e.f. 16.02.2018 vide RBE-26/2020
SCR GP-4200/-. Level-6 (5500-9000) 01.07.2002 Promotion. Appointment to the post of Section Controller from the post of Station Master is to be treated as lateral shift instead of promotion (RBE-96/2018).
Dy.CHC/ CHC GP-4600/-, Level-7 26.07.2004 Promotion. Promotion, to be reckoned CHC under MACPS
Section Controller GP-4200/-, Level-6 14.09.2007 Transfer on own request on reversion. Transfer by granting pay protection.
CHC GP-4600/-, Level-7 27.09.2013 Re-promotion on New Unit. Promotion, to be reckoned under MACPS

 

In this situation, promotion to SM from ASM to be ignored because of amendment in Recruitment Rules in SM category, circulated vide RBE-26/2020. Again, in terms of RBE-96/2018 Appointment to the post of Section Controller (GP-4200/-) (RS-5500-9000 5th CPC) from the post of Station Master (GP-4200/-) (Rs-5000-8000 5th CPC) is to be treated as lateral shift instead of promotion.

Therefore, the employee is eligible for 3rd financial up-gradation in GP-4800/-, Level-8 after completion of the 10 years from the re-promotion or 30 years from the date of direct entry grade whichever is earlier. if the concerned employee is still working after 16.02.2018.
