Calculation of Composite Transfer Grant on promotional transfer

A doubt has been raised with regard to regulation of Composite Transfer Grant admissible on transfer in cases when a railway servant joins the post at a new Headquarter, on promotion, viz. whether it should be w.r.t. the pay of the higher post to which he has been promoted or as per the pay of the post held by him at his old headquarters.

It is hereby clarified that for the purpose of the admissible amount of Composite Transfer Grant, the pay of the post held by the Railway servant at the old Headquarter before his transfer should be taken into account.  The increased rate of pay on promotion, on joining the post at new HQ, should not be admitted. Other terms and conditions for grant of this allowance remain unchanged.
