Sir, The DOPT should consider the evaluation of Stenographer III working in the Department of post, as the Postal Asstt and the Steno grade III is drawing the same grade pay and there is no enhancement in I MACP and even the steno has to wait for a long period to get Rs 4200/ GP. If the higher study is denied by the Govt then who will move to become the steno in the Department Post. Even upto IV Pay commission, there was a difference of pay, but in VI th Pay PC there is no proper evaulation of work etc.
FMs announcement is about the salaries employees for non-filing of returns if the total income does not exceed Rs.5 L.
How about the retired salaried persons. It is silent on that. Please clarify

Sir,
What about the Central Government employees and persioners medical insurance scheme. Survey has been conducted by the Ministry of Health and familywelfare. I think,no furhter action has been taken in this regard. So please taken up the issue in the next meeting
Central Govt pensioners, drawing pension and interest on deposit, which they have made out of their retirement proceeds, upto 5 lakhs should also be exempted from filing IT Returns.
Those having income from house property, agriculture etc.,should continued to file the returns as hithertobefore

Formual= (176-115.76)*100/115.76= 52.04, already it is 45%, now it will stand at 52%. the cabinet yet to formally declare it and also some allowances will be increased by 25%. Transport allowances however will not be increased since it is already related to the DA.
Last year the cabinet declared the enhances rates of DA ow.e.f. january 2010 on 18.03.10 and this year already it is 19th past but no sign of declarartion of the same.
Central Govt Pensioners (Sr. Citizens 65 yrs and above) whose income from Pension and interest is less than 2.4 lakhs but have non-assessable income like Long Term Capital Gains on their investment in Equity shares plus Dividend earned on Equities (all exempt of Tax) find it difficult to submit their Returns as staff on duty do not receive such returns saying that since the income is not taxable there is no need to file the return but there are no orders to this effect. If the income earned through Long Term Capital Gain and Dividend etc from Equities is invested in real estate or elsewhere to acquire new Assets the IT Deptt may question the source of income at a later date. The point is that either IT Deptt receive the Annual return or else exempt from filing of Returns if the Total Income from all sources, Pension, Interest, Dividend, Long Term Capital Gain from Equities is not otherwise assessable/taxable.
Which rule indicate that Officers of different rank or from which scale the officers are exempted from making their attendance in the Register on arrival or leaving the office.
Thanks
B.S. Tewthia
