JUDGMENT
AMIT RAWAL,J This order of ours shall dispose of three OP(CAT) cases bearing Nos.97 of 2015, 94 of 2020 and 100 of 2020 filed on behalf of the Union of India assailing the order of the Administrative Tribunal allowing the claim of the respondents-
applicants.
2. The respondents-applicants are scientists and widow of one of the scientists who had been working in various departments of the Central Government and contributed for running the units involving intricate and minute application of mind and help the nation to compete with the developed nations.
During their service, were awarded few incentives from the Hon'ble President of India. The said incentives were not ordered to be included in the salary, giving cause to approach this Court vide writ petition bearing Nos.29358, 29710 and 31525 of 2000.
2. This Court vide common judgment dated 18.01.2007 allowed above writ petitions and directed the department that OP(CAT) Nos.97 of 2015, 94 & 100 of 2020 16 the initial increment sanctioned in terms of Ext.P1 shall be counted as pay to attract all further payments including pensions depending upon the pay of the incumbent. All the applicants retired on different years i.e, on the following dates;
30.06.2000, 31.12.1998, 30.06.1999, 28.02.1997 and 31.10.1999 respectively. At the time of retirement, were drawing the pay in 5th Central Pay Commission (CPC) scale S-24. The judgment of this Court was challenged before the Supreme Court, which were dismissed vide order dated 04.04.2011 even the review petition preferred was also dismissed. But the department did not implement the order, impelled them to approach this Court in a contempt proceedings and ultimately the benefit was granted vide Annexure A5 dated 30.11.2011, the contents of which reads as under:
''In compliance to the Common Order dated 18.01.2007 of the Hon'ble High Court of Kerala in WP(C)Nos.29358, 29710 and 31525 of 2004, subsequently upheld by the Hon'ble Supreme Court, vide Orders dated 04.04.2011 in SLP(C) No. 555-560/ 2008 and 24.08.2011 in RP No. 1848-1853 of 2011 and as clarified by the Department of Space, Bangalore, the two additional increments granted, vide DOS OM No.2/10(8)/98-1 dated 03.02.1999 to Shri.C.N. Chandrasekharan Nair are hereby treated as part of basic pay for payment of DA, HRA and OP(CAT) Nos.97 of 2015, 94 & 100 of 2020 17 Pension/Pensionary benefits with effect from 01.01.1996. The payment of Professional Update Allowance is also granted for the financial year 1998-
1999."
3. Before promulgation of the 6th pay commission with effect from 01.01.2006, there was no problem as the benefits of the increment till 31.12.2005 has been granted, evident from Ext.A6 dated 08.12.2011. While granting the benefits of the 6 th pay commission, in computing the pension, there arose some dispute and the Government came out with the office memorandum Ext.A8 dated 01.09.2008. Clause 4.2 was applicable in the facts of the case as respondents-applicants misinterpreted in calculating the pension. In other words, according to the respondents-applicants, while granting the benefits of the 6th pay commission in computing the pension, the pay drawn by the applicants at the time of retirement and before the revision of the pay did not include the benefit of increments.
4. Our attention was drawn to Ext.R1(a) relied upon by the respondents. The factum that the benefit of the increment was given to the respondents-applicants is not in dispute by the petitioners which is also evident from Ext.P2 of this Court.
Serial No.6 of the chart reflects the grant of benefit of two OP(CAT) Nos.97 of 2015, 94 & 100 of 2020 18 increments of Rs.400/- each ie, 16,700 + 800 (Addl.Incr) =17,500/-. The revised basic pension w.e.f 01.06.2006 was fixed as Rs.23,050/- whereas it should have been Rs.24,435/-, minimum of the pay band. The petitioners-department opposed the aforementioned prayer by stating that there was no such miscalculation as alleged by the applicant and to demonstrate that the benefits was the increment, a tabulated form of the benefit was extracted in paragraph 4. The same reads as under:
Sl. Name & Designation Consolidated Pension (₹) 50% of No Before After minimum . implementation implementat of the of Court Order ion of Court pay in Order the Pay Band + Grade Pay(₹) 1 CN Chandrasekaharan 18,691, 19,595 23,050 Nair, Scientist/Engineer-SF (1st applicant) 2 K Balakrishna Pillai, 17,153 18,013 22,003 Scientist/Engineer-SF (2nd applicant) 3 MN Parameswaran 17,967 18,871 23,050 Pillai, Scientist/Engineer-SF (3rd applicant) 4 P Somasekhaharan 18,419 19,323 23,050 Nair, Scientist/Engineer-SF (4th applicant) 5 N Viswanathan Pillai, 17,154 18,058 23,050 Scientist/Engineer-SF (5th applicant) This fact was disputed by the applicants to show that the aforementioned tabulated form is only with regard to the benefit OP(CAT) Nos.97 of 2015, 94 & 100 of 2020 19 of the increment but while interpreting Clause 4.2 they have arrived at a lesser figure.
5. The learned Tribunal vide impugned order dated 26.09.2014 accepted the plea of the applicants and granted the relief in the following manner. The findings of the Tribunal in para 12 and 13 reads as under:
"12. Obligatory adopting the reasonings of the Hon'ble High Court in Annexure-A3 judgment based on the explicitly stated objects and reasons in Annexure-A1 office memorandum, this Tribunal feels that the additional increments granted to Scientist/Engineers in the SF scale is an additional pay coming within the definition of pay as defined in FR 9(21)(a) over and above their pay fixed. The afore quoted content of Annexure-A1 clearly shows that the ''grant'' of two additional increments is to all the Scientists/Engineers both recruitees and promotees in the scles of pay Rs.10000-325-15200; 12000-375- 16500; 14300-400-18300 & 16400-450-20000 w.e.f 1.1.1996 '' after their normal pay fixation''. The words 'after their normal pay fixation' clearly indicate that the President while sanctioning incentives for Scientists/Engineers in the De[artment of Space had granted the aforesaid additional increments intended to be aviled of 'after their normal pay re-fixation' for the specific purpose '' to attract, retain and inspire and motive the Scientists/Engineers to give their best contributions''. Being obligatory to follow Annexure-A3 decision of the Hon'ble High Court of Kerala, this Tribunal holds OP(CAT) Nos.97 of 2015, 94 & 100 of 2020 20 that Annexure-A1 additional increments is a permanent appendix to added to the pay of Scientists/Engineers of SF category, every time '' after their normal pay fixation''. It, therefore, necessarily follows that whenever revision takes place in their pay the two additional increments will have to be added.
13. Therefore, it goes without saying that the respondents are bound to re-fix the pensionary benefits of all the original appplicants in this OA and the family pension of the deceased 4 th applicant after adding the two additional increments granted as per Annexure-A1 to the minimum of their corresponding revised pay band as per the VI CPC recommendations and then to add the grade pay. The respondents are directed to re-fix the VI CPC pensionary benefits of applicant Nos.1 to 3 and 6 those of the deceased original applicant No.4 and the family pension pertaining to the latter within two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this order."
6. Mr. T.V. Vinu, the learned Counsel appearing on behalf of the petitioners assailed the order of the Tribunal on the point that the Tribunal failed to take notice of the documents reflecting extension of the benefit of the increments that had been given on announcement of 6 th Pay Commission while computing the pension of the applicants. The Department has strictly complied with OP(CAT) Nos.97 of 2015, 94 & 100 of 2020 21 Clause No.4.2 of the O.M. Ext.A8 dated 01.09.2008 and if at all the applicants had any dispute qua calculation, could have approached the department for re-calculation but not in the manner and mode.
7. We have heard counsel for the parties and appraised the paper books and of the view there is no force or merit in the argument.
8. On analysis of the extracted portion above, it is evident that till 31.12.2005, all the respondents- applicants were given the benefit of the increments. However, the dispute arose only while computing the pension on the basis of 6th Pay Commission recommendation. For giving effect to the retirees, Government, came out with office memorandum Ext.A8, clause 4.2 reads as under:
"The fixation of pension will be subject to the provision that the revised pension, in no case, shall be lower than fifty percent of the minimum of the pay in the pay band plus the grade pay corresponding to the pre-revised pay scale from which the pensioner had retired. In the case of HAG+ and above scales, this will be fifty percent of the minimum of the revised pay scale."
9. The interpretation of 4.2 is basically the root cause for denying the benefit to respondents-applicants. OP(CAT) Nos.97 of 2015, 94 & 100 of 2020 22 The consolidated pension should not be less than the minimum pension. But here in this case, it has been found that the consolidated pension was less than the minimum.
Ext.A-13 pay slip is the testament for denying relief to the respondents, which shows the two additional increments as per impugned order Ext.P1 being paid to the Scientist/Engineer SF was not included while computing the pension after granting the benefit of the 6 th Pay Commission.
10. In our considered view, department though accorded the benefit to the applicants as per the judgment of the High Court for including incentives as an increment in the pay, denied this benefit while computing the pension on the basis of the Pay Revision with effect from 01.01.2006. In fact the department was necessarily required to include all the additional increments whenever the revision takes place for the purpose of computing the pension. Precisely this is what is meant by the directions of the Tribunal. There is no illegality and perversity in the orders impugned. No ground for interference is made out.
Original petitions are dismissed. Petitioner-Department is OP(CAT) Nos.97 of 2015, 94 & 100 of 2020 23 directed do the needful as expeditiously as possible within a period of two months from the receipt of the certified copy of the judgment.
