(i) The pay in the pay band/pay scale will be determined by multiplying the existing basic pay as on 1.1.2006 by a factor of 1.86 and rounding off the resultant figure to the next multiple of 10.

(ii)If the minimum of the revised pay band /pay scale is more than the amount arrived at as per (i) above, the pay shall be fixed at the minimum of the revised band/pay scale.

FIXATION OF INITIAL PAY

Where, in the fixation of pay, the pay of Railway Servants drawing pay at two or more consecutive stages in an existing scale gets bunched, that is to say, gets fixed in the revised play structure at the same stage in the pay band, then, for every two stages so bunched, benefit of one increment shall be given so as to avoid bunching of more than two stages in the revised running pay bands. For this purpose, the increment will be calculated on the pay in the pay band. Grade pay would not be taken into account for the purpose of granting increments to alleviate bunching.

Provided further that :

If by stepping up of the pay as above, the pay of a Railway servant gets fixed at a stage in the revised pay band/pay scale(where applicable) which is higher than the stage in the revised pay band at which the pay of a Railway servant who was drawing pay at the next higher stage or stages in the same existing scale is fixed, the pay of the latter shall also be stepped up only to the extent by which it falls short of that of the former.

(iii) The pay in the pay band will be determined in the above manner. In addition to the pay in the pay band , Grade Pay corresponding to the existing scale will be payable.

The following 3 classifications shall be applicable for the payment of the
