  1. As per the order of 4th march 2011, which states that Air India fares lower than LTC80 is valid. so does it mean that one can purchased normal Airindia ticket directly from website. no need of LTC80 quota stamp on ticket? please clarify this.

  2. I,Pradp Halder junior technical assistant of Geological Survey of india,central head quarters , kolkata(grand pay:14530& grade pay 4600) residing at kolkata, westbengal & my permanent home address is maudirbazar,24 parganas south westbengal,, will like avail ltc along with my family to j&k for the block year 2010-13.

    please help

  3. I have travel to Imphal from Kolkatta by Indian Airlines under home town LTC converted to NER. But my air fare is Rs. 135/- more than LTC-80 scheme per seat. My claim is settled and balace amount is paid to me. Is this settlement is right?

  4. On account of merger of Indian Airlines into Air India the
    LTC 80 did not offer by the Air India. They offer separate Scheme for Central Govt employee under LTC Fair-W. Necessary clarification was required to be sought from the department
