I need to know certain official norms.
1. What is UPGRADATION? (govt. definition)
2. How it differs from PROMOTION
3. In Central government Service, if a person is upgraded whether the Grade Pay only will be changed or the scale too will be changed.
For instance, if a person in the Pay Scale of Rs. 4860 - 20,200 (with GP 2800) gets UPGRADATION to GP Rs. 4200/- WHETHER S/HE WILL Remain in the old pay scale (Rs. 4860-20200) with new GP (Rs. 4200/- ) or will be placed in the next Higher Scale (Rs. 8700 - 34800) with GP Rs. 4200/-
Please let me know with practical instances & Govt. Orders to this effect.
Sincerely,
Siddhartha S. Ray, Calcutta
