ORDER:
The Government in the GO 1st read above has
introduced New Pension System to the Government Employees appointed on or after
01.09.2004. Accordingly, deductions at the applicable rates have been made from
the monthly salary of the employees towards their contributions.
2. In the Government Orders 2nd read above
guidelines were issued, inter alia, for recovering arrears of CPS subscriptions
@ one arrears subscription
along with current month subscription. The
Government in the letter 4th read above have informed that CPS deductions shall
be recovered even for arrear bills also.
3. The Director of Treasuries and Accounts in
her letter 9th read above has stated that whenever the Government enhanced
Dearness Allowance payable to
the Government Employees, it is being ordered
that the arrears of the Dearness Allowance in respect of CPS employees should
be credited to the Compulsory Savings Scheme under the Head of Account:
8009-01-101-SH (03) and accordingly based on the claims preferred by the Drawing
and Disbursing Officers concerned, bills were passed for adjustment to the CSS
Account. Further the Government in GO 8th read above, while revising the rate
of DA on 01.07.2012, ordered that, in respect of CPS Employees 10% of the DA
arrears should be credited to the PRAN Account of the individuals concerned
along with
Government contribution and the remaining 90%
be paid in cash.
4. Further, the Director of Treasuries and
Accounts has requested the Government for adopting the same analogy in respect
of the DA arrears of earlier periods, which were adjusted to the CSS Account.
5. After careful consideration and keeping in
view of the stabilization of the scheme, the Government hereby order that;
(a.) Out of DA arrears drawn and credited to the
CSS account earlier in respect of the employees covered under the New Pension
System 90% shall be paid in cash to the employees concerned and balance 10% shall
be credited to CPS head of account along with Government
contribution .
(b.) In case, where the CPS deductions are not
affected from the date of joining of the Government servant concerned in
pursuance of the instructions issued earlier or where there are deductions
still due to be made for some months, it shall be made out of the above said
90% amount ordered to be paid in cash and only the balance amount shall be paid
in cash.
(c.) Interest on the amount outstanding in CSS
account of each employee till such adjustment, shall be calculated @ 8% for
actual period of such deposit and paid to the employee concerned in cash.
6. In the Government orders issued from time
to time revising the rate of Dearness allowance, it was ordered that the
Drawing and Disbursing Officer concerned shall maintain record of adjustment of
DA arrears which was earlier adjusted to the CSS and inform those details to
the employee concerned in a proforma (Annexure-II) prescribed for that purpose.
Thus responsibility for
reconciliation and ensuring correctness of
the deductions lies with the Drawing and Disbursing Officer concerned.
7. The Drawing and Disbursing Officer(DDO)
concerned shall prepare a statement showing the details of deductions in the
Annexure enclosed and prefer a consolidated adjustment bill for the entire
period in respect of each employee. In case of transferred employees the
details of deductions shall be certified by the Drawing and Disbursing Officer
of previous station and countersigned by the Treasury Officer concerned. The
Drawing and Disbursing Officer shall also enclose necessary schedule in case
the CSS amounts are adjusted towards the CPS deductions of arrear periods as
per Para.5(b.) above.
8. The Drawing and Disbursing Officer
concerned shall prefer an adjustment bill employee-wise transferring the CSS
amounts as ordered at Para.5 (a) or (b.) from the Head of Account: 8009-State
Provident Funds 01- Civil 101-General Provident Funds (03)-Compulsory Savings
