Higher Education Commission has issued letter on 23-05-2017 in connection with Grant of M.Phil Allowance @Rs.2500/- per Month. Detail is as under:
Under the Provision of Section 10 clause 1 (o) of HEC`s Ordinance No. I,III, dated 11.09.2002, the Quality Assurance Division of HEC has devised the Admission and Award of Degree Criteria for MS/M.Phil/PhD/Equivalent Programs.

It is further added that in some cases, nomenclature was changed from M.Phil to after the introduction of BS and MS programs by HEC. As such following types of degrees are awarded are awarded as equivalent to 18 years of schooling:
| S# | Degree Title | Description |
| i | a. MPhil Degree (with thesis) b. MPhil Degree (with thesis)

According to above referred Office Memorandum of Govt. of Pakistan, Finance Division, the M.Phil allowance is granted to these only who acquire/possess the degree of M.Phil recognized by the HEC. However, in view of the above mentioned clarification, all those who have M.Phil or MS degrees (18 years schooling) should be eligible to draw the allowance @ Rs.2500/- per month.
i have already shared my contacts with all of you people, we will not be able to get this allowance until we approach court of law against finance division as finance division is the only hurdle in this allowance.
my cell number is 03085059325 please contact me to make a plan to get our right.
