Hence, promotions/financial upgradations under ACP Scheme from the pre-revised pay scales which were merged in a single grade pay from 01.01.2006 will be protected till 29.08.2008. Therefore, financial upgradations under ACP Scheme in the pay scale higher than what accrued to an employee on his regular promotion is not tenable.
