7th CPC Children Education Allowance – Procedures 2019

7th Pay Commission Children Education Allowance – Procedure, Bonafide Certificate Format 2019

Children Education Allowance is one of the greatest and valuable concession for Central Government employees implemented as per the recommendations of 6th pay commission with effect from 1.9.2008. This allowance is paid for taking more care on education of children.

CEA and HS will be paid for school going children from nursery to 12th class. The amount of CEA and HS will be double for differently-abled children.

Rate Chart of CEA

The revised rates of Children Education Allowance and Hostel Subsidy as per 7th CPC is given in the below table…

Children Education Allowance Monthly Yearly
1st child Rs. 2,250 Rs. 27,000
2nd child Rs. 2,250 Rs. 27,000
Hostel Subsidy
1st child Rs. 6,750 Rs. 81,000
2nd child Rs. 6,750 Rs. 81,000

The rates of CEA and HS shall increase by 25% whenever the DA increases by 50%.

CEA Reimbursement Procedure

Children Education Allowance Scheme is a reimbursement scheme. Reimbursement should be done just once a year, after completion of the academic year. The maximum reimbursement amount of CEA is now Rs. 27000 per year per child and the maximum reimbursement amount of HS is now Rs. 81000 per year per child.

7th CPC simplified the procedure for reimbursement. No need to submit bills, receipts, vouchers, and invoices for reimbursement. Bonafide certificate of children from the head of the institution is enough for reimbursement.

Model Format of Bonafide Certificate

The reimbursement application shall contain a bonafide certificate from the school to ensure that the child has studied in the previous academic year and also mention the amount of expenditure incurred.

For Hostel Subsidy, the same bonafide certificate should mention the amount of expenditure incurred by the Government employees towards lodging and boarding in the residential complex

Clarification on Grant of Non-functional Scale to Group B Officers in Pay Matrix Level-11

Clarification on grant of Non-functional Scale to Gr. ‘B’ officers in Level-11 of Accounts Department and Level-10 in organized departments of Indian Railways

GOVERNMENT OF INDIA
MINISTRY OF RAILWAYS
(RAILWAY BOARD)

No. E(GP)2003/2/22

New Delhi, dated: 06.08.2019

The General Managers,
All Indian Railways & Production Units

Sub.: Clarification on grant of Non-functional Scale to Gr. ‘B’ officers in Level-11 of Accounts Department and Level-10 in organized departments of Indian Railways- reg.

In terms of Ministry of Railways’ Gazette Notification G.S.R. 210(E) dated 08.03.2018 (RBE No. 37/2018), the higher scale of Level-11 in Accounts department and Level-10 in other organised departments has to be operated to the extent of 100% of the Gr. ‘B’ officers on-roll including Gr. ‘B’ officers officiating in Level-11 on ad-hoc basis after completion of 4 years of regular service in the respective grades in organized departments.

Subsequently, detailed guidelines outlining the procedure have also been issued vide Board’s letter no. E(GP) 2003/2/22) dated 12.12.2018 (RBE No. 192/2018).

2. It has been observed that references are being received from various Zonal Railways seeking clarification on issues relating to the aforementioned scheme.

In the past, several clarifications have been issued to various Zonal Railways over a number of issues. Therefore, in order to provide clarity on the issue, these clarifications are being summarized as under:

Doubt Remarks
1. Whether Gr. ‘B’ officers completing 4 years of regular service are to be granted NFS from the next date or from 1st January or 1st July of the following year. The date of effect of placement in the higher Group ‘B’ non-functional grade will be the date when the officer becomes eligible i.e. when the officer completes four years of regular service in the relevant grade.
2. Clarification whether Gr ‘B’ officers on deputation, on the date of their consideration for grant of NFS to be taken to be on roll or total no. of Gr. ‘B’ officers be computed excluding their names. Officers on deputation to other departments may be granted Non­ functional Scale of Level-10 notionally from 08.03.2018 while the actual benefit will accrue to them on return from deputation and joining the cadre.
3. Grading of APAR for allotment of higher scale of Level-11 to Gr. ‘B’ officers of Accounts Department and Level- 10 of other organised Departments. The benchmark for grant of NFS of Level-11 to Gr. ‘B’ officers of Accounts Department and Level-10 of other organised Departments would continue to be ‘Good’.
4. Whether Gr. ‘B’ officers ‘On-roll’ includes officers on deputation. Yes. The term Gr. ‘B’ officers on-roll mentioned in Board’s letter dated 08.03.2018 also include officers who are having their lien on the Railway but are working elsewhere on deputation.
5. APARs Five years APARs are required to be considered. If any APARs is not available, the APARs of the immediately preceding year/years to that extent may be taken into account even if it pertains to non-gazetted period of service.
6. Whether a senior employee can be considered for grant of NFS with his junior having already completed 4 years of service. For consideration of officers for placement in the higher Gr. ‘B’ Scale of Level-10 (Level-11 in case of Accounts department), the senior Group ‘B’ employee shall be deemed to have rendered the service put in by his immediate junior and if that happens 4 years or more he should be considered for placement in higher Gr. ‘B’ scale of Level-10 (Level-11 in case of Accounts department).
7. Extended Panel is required to be formed in lieu of officers who would be retiring during the intervening period. Since the posts are being operated at 100% and officers are being granted the benefit from the date on which they are becoming eligible (through assessment being done on the prescribed date), formation of extended panel is not required.
8. Whether service rendered in the Gr. ‘B’ in the previous unit can be considered for grant of NFS. The issue may be decided in terms of Board’s Letter No. E(GP)2005/1/43 dated 16.12.2005.
