Subject:-Modified ACP Scheme (MACPS) for Railway employees—clarification-
regarding.

Reference is invited to the Board’s letter of even number dated 10-06-2009 regarding the
Modified Assured Career Progression Scheme (MACPS) to Railway employees. Pursuant to the
discussions in the meeting of National Advisory Committee held on 17-07-12 and subsequent
meeting on 27-07-2012 held with the Staff Side and in continuation to clarifications issued vide
Board’s letter of even number dated 28-12-2010, it is further clarified as under:-

2(i). Financial upgradation under MACPS in the case of staff who joined another
unit/organization on request.

Railway Board’s letter of even number dated 28-12-2010 provides that in case of transfer
‘including unilateral transfer on request’, regular service rendered in previous organization/office
shall be counted along with the regular service in the new organization/office for the purpose of
getting financial upgradations under the MACP Scheme. However, financial upgradation under
the MACP Scheme shall be allowed in the immediate next higher grade pay in the hierarchy of
revised Pay Bands as given in Railway Services (Revised Pay) Rules, 2008. It is now further
clarified that wherever an official, in accordance with terms and conditions of transfer on own
volition to a lower post, is reverted to the lower Post/Grade from the promoted Post/Grade
before being relieved for the new organization/office, such past promotion in the previous
organization/office will be ignored for the purpose of MACP Scheme in the new
organization/office. In respect of those cases where benefit of pay protection have been allowed
at the time of unilateral transfer to other organization/unit and thus the employee had carried the
financial benefit of promotion, the promotion earned in previous organization has to be reckoned
for the purpose of MACP Scheme.

Para 17 of Annexure-1 of Railway Board’s letter dt. 10-06-09 provide that the financial
upgradation would be on Non-functional basis subject to fitness, in the hierarchy of grade pay

be applicable till the grade pay of %6600/- in PB-3. The benchmark will be ‘Very Good’ for
financial upgradation to the grade pay of %7600 and above. Railway Board’s letter of even
