    I would like to say that this platform is very useful and informative regarding the undrdtanding of govt dipersed and complex rules, regulation and notifications. Thanks for providing such platform.
    I was working as Subject Specialist Economics (BS-17) in semi-govt organisation of Federal since 2012 and than appointed through FPSC as Assistant Director (BS-17) through proper channel in Fderal govt attached department in January 2019. My Pay has been protected in the same scale but the nature of job changed from Teaching to Administrative cadre. I need your guidance regarding Pre-mature increment in my case. Is Pre-mature increment is admissible in this case if yes than i need Notification or OM of Finance Division if any???

    1. If you use the option, then you can get annual increment. (Give option certificate to concerned account office. 1st get annual increment in BPS-11 on 01-12-2019 and then fix ur pay in BPS-15 on 2nd December with premature increment)

    I was moveover in BPS-12 on 1-12-2000 at basic pay RS:3780 Per month (last stage of BPS-12)
    after that i was promoted in the same scale that is BPS-12 TO BPS-12 on 31-05-2001 and my pay remain same and fixed at RS:3780 per month.No premature increments was given as per above referred OM Dated:05-11-2012.
    Kindly clarify the same.
    How Is it possible for me to grant the increment as per existing rules and regulations ?

    Reply
    1. A Government Servant who is promoted to a higher post carrying pay scale to which he has already reached by way of move-over will also be entitled to the benefit of a premature increment. i.e. next stage plus one premature increment (increase of 2 increments in his pay)

      Authority: Fin Div. O.M. No. F.8 (1) R-2/88 dated: 03-04-1991

      You are, therefore, advised to take up the matter with Audit/Account office concerned accordingly.

  11. Dear Madam, AOA. after 2 years ago, I appeared on this forum when my case for premature increment and other on pay fixation on same scale promotion. Wqafaqi Mohtasib was sought clarification from the AGPR, Lahore who was declared my claim as right and W/M accept my claim. But, later the Department appeal that this is a administrative matter and is not under jurisdiction of the W/M.So the decision was dropped. When I appealed to the FST, Lahore in reply to my appeal my department is insisting that one increment on Selection Grade was given to me on 17.3.1996, hence, on same scale promotion benefit of pay fixation (Next stage) can not be granted. Please let me know, is there any rule of pay fixation benefit on same scale promotion exists which will differentiate the Selection Grade and same scale promotion.

  15. Dear Madam, I read all the documents related to same scale promotion and thereon grant of next stage and than premature increment.My case is in Wafaqi Mohtasib, Lahore as my department says that pay fixation benefit during fixation of pay on grant of selection grade from B-15 to B-16 in 1996 was given to me hence in same scale promotion can not be given. I have been submitted some precedents of the employees in same case to whom AGPR, Lahore and Karachi have allowed two increments in same scale promotion. But, even than my case is hanging in Wafaqi Mohtasib office Lahore. Have you any clear cut orders which will help me in my case. Mohtasib office has sought clarification from AGPR, Lahore in this regards. Hearing of case is 20.8.2014

    1. Dear Ahmad, it is clear cut proof of the same that prior to this Notification only one increment (next above) was granted to the employees and no premature increment was granted on promotion within the same scale. After issuance of this Notification now all departments are granting the same premature increment. Just get the copies of fixations of these kind of fixation and show the court or the department. Thanks

In case of same scale promotion, next above is next increment and in the same way 1 premature increment will also be applicable. Before this Notification only next above was granted to the employee who was promoted in the same scale. Thanks

    1. Dear Riaz according to the notification, promotion within the same scale is compulsory for the same increment as you were not promoted within the same scale therefore you are eligible only the next above and premature increment. IN case of promotion within the same scale 2 increments are granted. 1x next above and 1 x premature.

Secondly informing you that recently the stenographers of District Judiciary Sindh holding BPS-12 have been up-graded to BPS-15 vide notification dated 11-4-2013, question is that what is benefit through such notification for the stenographers who were already in Selection Grade BPS-15 and what would be their status stand now. Moreover there is another notification of Sindh finance deptt. by which stenos-12 have been upgraded to 14 and stenos of 15 have been upgraded to BPS16 under notification dated 21-3-2013, the question is that whether the stenos of District Judiciary holding Selection grade 15 are entitled their up-gradation in BPS-16 .

    Question NO.1, is that without NOTIFICATION accounts office is not granting increment yet? would you please search it for me.
    Question No.2. Whether after your suggestions to M.TARIQ, he has been granted his increment from AGPR or not yet.?

    Before 25.08.2003 I was working as Junior Stenographer. After that through an advertisement in the same department I was selected as Senior Stenographer. During the fixation of my pay no premature increment was granted to me because my department say that you are selected as Senior Stenographer not promoted. Premature increment will be given to those who are promoted. So explain me regarding premature increment. Kia meri increment banti hay ya nahin.

    1. Promotion within the same scale means when an employee promotes in the same scale. His/her basic pay scale remains the same but designation changes.
      eg. TGT (SG) is in BPS-17 and when he promotes he becomes AHM and his scale remains the same ie 17.
