Example-III

Pay fixation of an employee in BS-5 who has moved over to BS-11 and is

in receipt of basic pay of Rs.3465/- will be fixed after allowing notional increments in

BS-5 of 1994 BPS up to the stage of basic pay drawn. Since basis pay of Rs.3465/- is

beyond the 30 stages in notional BS-5, (1994 BPS), & Resultantly more than the 30

stages of BPS 2001, therefore, his pay will be fixed at the notional 32nd stage i.e. at

Rs.5300/-. The difference of Rs.200/- (Rs.5300-5100) will be personal to him as under:

BS-5 1994 Stage 30
