This relaxation will not be applicable to vacancies arising after the date of effect of these orders.

Matching Savings:

For calculation of the financial implications, the revised basic pay (including the Grade Pay) corresponding to the midpoint of the pre-revised pay scales in respect of the each post as listed in the fitment table circulated vide Railway Board’s letter No. PC-VI/2008/I/RSRP/1 dated 12.09.2008, should be taken, along with the Dearness Allowance as applicable on date of effect of these orders.

9.1. Before restructuring the cadre of Assistant Loco Pilots as per the revised percentage distribution of posts, matching savings will have to be ensured by the Railway. Board desire that the General Managers should ensure that the restructuring is implemented expeditiously with matching saving without any exception and difficulty. There would be no restructuring without matching savings by surrender of posts by the concerned Railway.

This issues with the concurrence of Finance Directorate of this Ministry.

Kindly acknowledge receipt.
