Sir,

   I am directed to say that the references are being received in the Finance Department for seeking clarification regarding protection/fixation of pay in respect of those employees who have been appointed from one Govt. department to another Govt. department or Public Sector Undertakings/Boards/Autonomous Bodies/ Universities etc. and vice-versa by direct recruitment and were in receipt of higher Grade Pay in their parent organization. After careful consideration, it has been decided that the higher Grade Pay being drawn in the parent organization will not be protected and the Grade Pay of the post against which the incumbent is appointed, will be allowed.
