Armed forces to get ad-hoc arrears asap

Keeping in view that the re-fixation of pay and allowances and consequent calculation of arrears may take some time, the government has decided to make ad-hoc payment of arrears for the current year to all ranks of the Services at the earliest. The proposal received the sanction of the President today. The amount so paid will be adjusted against the final computation of arrears on the revised pay scales. It may be recalled that 40% of the arrears are to be paid in cash in the year 2008-2009 and the remaining 60% in the year 2009-2010. The ad-hoc rates will be as follows:

Officers
Lt/Equivalent Rs 55,000
Capt./Equivalent Rs 65,000
Major/Equivalent Rs 70,000
Lt Col/Equivalent Rs 80,000
Col/Equivalent Rs 1,50,000
Brigadier/Equivalent Rs 1,60,000
Maj Gen/Equivalent Rs 1,75,000
Lt Gen/Equivalent Rs 2,25,000

PBORs
NC(E) Rs 20,000
Sepoy/Equivalent Rs 25,000
Nk/Equivalent Rs 30,000
Hav/Equivalent Rs 32,000
Nb Sub/Equivalent Rs 48,000
Sub/Equivalent Rs 48,000
Sub Major/Equivalent Rs 50,000

The above-mentioned amount would be admissible with reference to the substantive rank held as on 01.01.2006. Payment of the above ad-hoc amounts will be made only to those personnel who were in Service as on 01.01.2006 and continue to be in Service thereafter. The ranks held by the personnel as on 01.01.2006 would be reckoned for drawing the arrears. The concerned paying authorities may deduct income tax as per normal rules at the time of final computation of arrears payable during the current financial year.

  1. each bastard MP gets 2 crore a year for doing nothing

    what DRDO scientists get compared
    to IAS,IPS nothing,not even equivalent to private sector pay

    each IAS,IPS officer gets more payment than armed forces of similar rank+ rishvat +gifts and whats not

    even people in state service commission get more that people in
    armed force or in DRDO

    each police sepoy gets more pay
    than sepoy in armed forces+rishvat

  2. the fact of the matter is that the requested pay ike would cost the government ONLY Rs450-crores more.

    that’s a maegre price to pay to keep the sovereignty of the nation intact

  3. We are worth what we ask for. Leave now before you start believing what they want you to believe your worth is ….. There are corporates waiting for your services ….

  4. An interesting take by one of the retd service officers in the NDTV program yesterday was his ardent wish that all MPs should have been killed in the attack on parliament. And to think that the armed forces lost almost 800 lives in the mobilisation that was the response to the Parliament attack just boils my blood no end. Alas, the bureaucracy has surreptitiously achieved widening the rift between the Services and the political executive. This needs to be corrected immediately (and safeguards built for direct access to each other) to save the country.

  5. every army officer earns uper ki kamai and maintaing huge amount of slush. every one knows where the money comes from.
