****************

In the Government Order first, second and third cited, orders have been issued to the effect that the services
rendered in the Selection Grade / Special Grde of the lower post shall be counted for awarding Selection Grade in the
higher post if the scale of pay of the Selection Grade / Special Grade of the lower post and that of the higher post are
identical / higher.
2. In the revised pay scales implemented with effect from 1.1.2006, no separate scales of pay have
been provided for Selection Grade / Special Grade posts. Only one increment equal to three Percent of the basic pay
including grade pay in the same pay band is allowed to the employees of award of Selection Grade / Special Grade.
Therefore, the question of counting the services rendered in the Selection Grade / Special Grade of the lower post for
awarding Selection Grade / Special Grade in the promotion post does not arise. Hence the orders issued in the
Government order / Letters first to third cited can not be made applicable in the revised scales of pay implemented
with effect from 1.1.2006.
