           Subject:- Fixation ofpay ofRe-employed               Ex-servicemen Pensioners.
           Sir/Madam,
                           I
                         am directed to refer to subject cited above and to say that references
           have been received from various departments regarding revision/fixation of pay of re-
           employed Ex- Servicemen pensioners. After careful consideration of this matter, the
           Govemment has decided as under:-
                l.   An ex-serviceman pensioner who held post in the rank of Commissioned
                     officer at the time of retirement:
                     (a) Re-employed before 01.01.2016
                        The pay shall be fixed by applying multiplying factor of 2.57 on the pay
                        received at the time of retirement from the Govemment of India. The pay so
                        arrived shall be fixed in the applicable level of the pay matrix of the post as
                        per Finance Departments Notification dated 05.07.2021. If the minimum of
                        the applicable level ofthe post is more than the pay so fixed the pay on re-
                        employed post shall be fixed on the minimum of the applicable level of post.
                        In case the maximum of applicable level of the post is less than the pay on
                        re-employed post, the pay shall be fixed on the maximum of the applicable
                        level of the post. The pension for this purpose shall also be fixed after
                        applying factor of 2.57 on the pension received from the Government of
                        India. Non ignorable part ofpension shall be reduced from the pay, so fixed.
                     (b) Re-employed after 01.01.2016
                         The initial basic pay shall be fixed in the applicable level of the pay matrix
                         of the post as per Finance Departments Notification dated 05.07.2021. If the
                         minimum of the applicable Ievel of the post is more than the last basic pay
                                         FD-FP-206(PYF G)t   11   t2023- 1F P2

                         drawn at the time of retirement, then the pay on re-employed post shall be
                         fixed at the minimum of the applicable level of the post. In case the
                         maximum of the applicable level of the post, is less than the last basic pay
                         drawn at the time of retirement, then the pay on re-employed post shall be
                         fixed at the maximum of the applicable level of the post. Non ignorable part
                         ofpension shall be reduced from the pay so fixed.
               2.    After fixation of pay he/she shall be placed, at a cell equal to the figure so
                     arrive, in the level of the post to which he is appointed: and if no such cell is
                     available in the level to which he is appointed, he shall be placed at the lower
                     cell in that level. The difference ofpay, if any, shall be treated as a Personal Pay
                     which shall be adjusted in the subsequent annual increment/s.
               3. Ignorable part of pension     is enhanced from Rs. 4,000/- to 15,000/- in the case   of
                     Commissioned Service Officers holding Group 'A' posts who retire before
                     attaining the age of 55 years. The existing limits of military pensions to be
                     ignored in fixing the pay of re-employed pensioners will, therefore, cease to be
                     applicable to cases of such pensioners as are re-employed on or after 1.1.2016.
               4.    The pay and the pension (before commutation), taken together, shall not, in any
                     case, exceed Two lac eighteen thousand and six hundred (Rs. 2,18,600/-).
               5. Meticulous compliance of these instructions shall be ensured at the level of
                     Head of Department and any laxity or deviation from these instructions shall be
                     viewed seriously.
               6. Necessary amendment in the relevant rules will          be made in due cowse.
                                                             Yours faith         v,
