Cadre wise Recommendations of 7th Pay Commission for grant of higher grade pay
1, 2, 3. Dietitians in Railways
Dietitians in Railways have demanded an upgrade to GP 5400 (PB-3) from the existing GP 4200. The Dieticians in Central Government are placed in GP 4600.The entry level qualification for Dietitians in Railways is B.Sc. with Chemistry/Home Science and PG Diploma in Dietetics with three months’ internship OR M.Sc. (Home Science) with Food and Nutrition.
The entry level qualification for Dietitians in Central Government is Master’s Degree in Home Science/Home Economics with specialisation in Food and Nutrition or B.Sc. (Home Science/Home Economics) with Nutrition as a special subject and PG Diploma in Dietetics and one year’s experience.
Thus, the entry level qualification of Dietitians in Railways and Central Government is similar except that in the Railways, three months’ internship has been prescribed as against one year’s experience prescribed in the Central Government.
The Commission observes that this is a fit case for harmonisation and recommends GP 4600 for Dietitians in Railway. The promotional posts of Senior Dietician (present GP 4600) and Assistant Dietetic Officer (present GP 4800) will also be upgraded to GP 4800 and GP 5400 (PB-2) respectively.
4. Radiographers Andaman and Nicobar Administration
In case of Radiographers of Andaman and Nicobar Administration, the Commission notes that the posts of Junior Radiographers and Radiographers have similar entry level qualifications but are placed in GP 2000 and GP 2800 respectively.The Commission recommends that the post of Junior Radiographer be merged with Radiographers and placed in GP 2800.
5. Perfusionists in Railways
The Commission recommends GP 4200 for Perfusionists in Railways subject to acquiring qualification of Degree in Science + Diploma in Perfusion Technology.Further, the existing incumbents not possessing the revised qualification may be granted replacement pay level corresponding to GP 2400.
They may be granted the pay level corresponding to upgraded GP 4200 after acquiring the revised qualification OR upon completion of three years in GP 2400, whichever is earlier.

The Commission recommends that Russian Translation Officers should be upgraded from the existing GP 4600 to GP 5400 (PB-3).Similarly, Russian Senior Translation officers should be upgraded from existing GP 5400 (PB-3) to GP 6600 and Russian Editors from existing GP 6600 to GP 7600.
10. Sheep Shearer cum Supervisor, Central Sheep Breeding Farm (CSBF)
The Commission recommends that the grade pay of Sheep Shearer cum Supervisors be upgraded to the GP 2400.Since the upgradation will involve a jump from the level of Shepherd in the GP 1800 to Sheep Shearer cum Supervisor in the GP 2400 after a period of 12 years, the Commission is of the view that the government may consider introducing an appropriate level in between so as to graduate the progression from Shepherd to Sheep Shearer cum Supervisor.
11. Inspector in Indian Postal Service
The Commission, recommends that Inspector (Posts) who are presently in the GP 4200 should be upgraded to GP 4600. With this upgradation, Inspector (Posts) shall come to lie in an identical grade pay as that of their promotion post of Assistant Superintendent of Posts (ASPOs).12. ASPOs in Indian Postal Service
Commission has felt that a higher grade would need to be extended to ASPOs. Accordingly, the Commission recommends that the promotional post of ASPOs be placed in the next higher GP 4800 and further, the post of Superintendent (Posts), which is presently in the GP 4800, be moved up to GP 5400 (PB-2).13, 14, 15. Assistant Archivists, Archivists and Scientific Officers in National Archives of India
The Commission taking note of the demands made, reply of the ministry, the role of Archivists and the entry level qualifications recommends as under:The existing cadre of Assistant Archivists should be upgraded to GP 4600 from the existing GP 4200, and then placed at the appropriate level in the Pay Matrix.
Accordingly, the Commission recommends upgradation in the pay for the cadre of Archivists to GP 4800 from the existing GP 4600. After upgradation, these employees should be placed at the appropriate level in the Pay Matrix.
The Commission is recommending upgradation in the pay for the post of Scientific Officer from the existing GP 4600 to GP 4800, and a non-functional upgrade to GP 5400 (PB-2) after four years. After upgradation, these employees should be placed at the appropriate level in the Pay Matrix.
16. Officers in organised Accounts Cadres (in the Indian Audit and Accounts Department, Defence Accounts Department, Indian Civil Accounts Organisation, Railways, Post and Telecommunications)
The Commission is therefore of the view that there is no justification for excluding officers in the organised accounting departments who are at GP 4800 from this dispensation.It is recommended that all officers in organised accounts cadres (in the Indian Audit and Accounts Department, Defence Accounts Department, Indian Civil Accounts Organisation, Railways, Post and Telecommunications) who are in GP 4800 should be upgraded, on completion of four years’ service to GP 5400 (PB-2), viz., Pay level 9, in the pay matrix.

The Commission recommends that Grade Pay of Junior ECG Technician of Dr. R.M.L Hospital is to be upgraded from Rs. 2400 to Rs. 2800.18, 19. Junior Agriculture Assistant / Junior Soil Conservation Assistant in Andaman and Nicobar Administration
Taking into consideration the essential educational qualification of BSc (Agriculture) and the hierarchical pattern in the cadre, the posts of Junior Agriculture Assistant/Junior Soil Conservation Assistant presently in PB-1, GP- 2400 are recommended to be upgraded and merged with the posts of Agriculture Assistant/Soil Conservation Assistant in the pay scale of PB-1, GP-2800. Since the posts above GP 2800 in the cadre are already placed in appropriate level, the demand for pay hike is not justified and status quo is recommended.Bus Conductors in Andaman and Nicobar Administration
The Commission, recommends an upgradation in pay from Grade Pay 1800 to 1900 in case of Bus Conductors of A&N.20, 21, 22, 23, 24 and 25. Senior Technical Assistants (STAs), JTA, Store Keeper, Assistant Store Keeper, Electrical Supervisor, Laboratory Assistant, Machine Man, and Junior Press Assistant in Ministry of Mining
Commission has recommended that the posts of STA (Chemistry), STA (Ore Dressing), STA (Mining), STA (Survey), STA (Publication) and STA (Drawing) should be first upgraded to GP 4600 and then placed at the appropriate level in the pay matrix.Consultations with the Ministry of Mines reveals that the method of recruitment, qualification required, and duties of all JTAs in IBM and GSI are similar.
Accordingly, it is recommended that the posts of JTA (Chemistry), JTA (Ore Dressing) and JTA (Publication) should be first upgraded to GP 4200 and then placed at the appropriate level in the pay matrix.
The posts of JPA and SPA should be merged in IBM. The merged cadre should be called Pressman cadre. It should be initially fixed in GP 1900 with appropriate placement in the pay matrix.
The post of Electrical Supervisor in IBM lies in GP 2800 with qualification requirement of Diploma in Engineering.
This post has had horizontal parity with the post of Junior Technical Assistant (JTA). Since we are recommending upgradation of JTA from GP 2800 to GP 4200, upgrading the post of Electrical Supervisor also to GP 4200 is warranted. Accordingly, the same is recommended.
26 and 27. Sub-Inspectors and Inspectors of CBI in Ministry of Home Affairs
In the VI CPC report it has been mentioned that there is historical parity between the executive cadre of IB and CBI and that such a parity has to be maintained.Since this Commission has approved upgradation of pay of ACIO I and ACIO II in IB, the pay of corresponding ranks in CBI viz., Sub Inspector and Inspector are also recommended to be upgraded similarly.
The upgradation has also been recommended keeping in mind the nature of duties performed by these ranks in the organisation.
Accordingly the pay of Sub Inspector is upgraded from GP 4200 to GP 4600 and that of Inspector from GP 4600 to GP 4800.
28. Assistant Station Masters in Railways (ASM)
The Commission notes that 7 percent of the entire ASM cadre is presently in GP 2800, 53 percent in GP 4200 and 40 percent in GP 4600.Keeping in mind the identical educational qualifications required for the posts of ASM and SM, with practically no difference in the functions performed by them, and the historical importance of the post, it is recommended that the ASMs in GP 2800 should first be upgraded to GP 4200 and then fitted in the revised Pay Matrix.
The cadre will then have 60 percent posts in Level 6 and 40 percent in Level 7.
The designation of ASM may be abolished. Separate recommendations have been made regarding Dress Allowance to Station Masters. Other demands like grant of Safety and Punctuality Allowance, Outturn Allowance are not justified.
29. Commercial Clerk and Ticketing Staff in Railways
The Commission finds merit in the argument that the three categories of Commercial staff should be unified into a single cadre.Accordingly, it is recommended that they should be consolidated into one cadre called Commercial and Ticketing Staff. The cadre will have the following structure after merger:
| Grade Pay | Level | % Distribution of Posts |

Organizational flexibility will be enhanced as the department will have a larger pool of employees for optimal utilization, as per the requirement.
