2. The post of JHT in NCC carried pre-revised pay scale of Rs. 5000-8000. However, VIth CPC recommended merger of three pre-revised pay scales of Rs. 5000-8000, 5500-9000 and Rs. 6500-10,500/- into new pay scale of PB-II of Rs. 9,300-34,800 with Grade Pay of Rs. 4200/-. However, this HQ had received representations from some JHTs claiming that in view of the MoF letter No 1/1/2008-IC dated 13 Nov 2009 they should be granted Grade Pay of Rs. 4600/- in PB-II.

3. Accordingly clarifications were sought from Ministry of Defence. Ministry of Defence have clarified that as per content of Min of Finance, Deptt of Expenditure OM No. 1/1/2008-IC dated 13th November 2009, only those posts which were in pre-revised pay scale of Rs 6500-10500 as on 01.01.2006 (existed in this scale before CPC) , have been granted Grade Pay of Rs. 4600/- and Therefore, the posts which have been upgraded and placed in the pre-revised pay scale after 6th CPC recommendations, are not covered under the said OM. Since JHTs were not in the pre-revised pay scale of Rs 6500-10500 before 6th CPC recommendations, they are not eligible for getting Grade Pay of Rs 4600.
