. Sub:- Regulations APSEBoard Service Regulations Part I Exercising of revised option under Regulation 30 (A) whenever retrospective Pay fixation is made Clarification Issued. ***** Sub-Regulation (2) of Regulation 30(A) of the Andhra Pradesh State electricity Board Service Regulations part-I lays down that Option shall be given by the Board employee within one month from the date of promotion:Provided that the Board employee shall be entitled to revise his option only one within a period of one year from the date of promotion, and it shall be final. 2) It has been brought to the notice of the Board that wherever retrospective fixation of pay of an employee is made by an order of the Board or other competent authority, there may be a change in the date of increment which will have bearing on the option earlier exercised under Regulation 30(A) of the Andhra Pradesh State Electricity Board Service Regulations Part-I. A doubt has therefore arisen whether an employee whose pay was refixed retrospectively based on the orders of the Board is entitled to exercise revised option under Regulation 30(A) of the Andhra Pradesh State Electricity Board Service Regulations Part-I. 3) After careful examination, it is hereby clarified that- As and when retrospective fixation of pay is made to the individual by an order of the Board either due to a change in date of increment or due to a material change in pay, such individual or his legal heirs, as the case may be, may be permitted to revise or exercise the option now under Regulation 30(A) of the Andhra Pradesh State Electricity Board Service Regulations Part-I within a period of six months from the date of issue of retrospective orders by the Board. 4) The employees in whose cases the six months period referred to in para 3 above, has already lapsed they shall exercise option within 3 months form the date of this memorandum.

ANDHRA PRADESH STATE ELECTRICITY BOARD ABSTRACT Regulations APSE Board Service Regulations Part-I Fixation or pay on promotion to higher post amendment to Regulation 30-A of APSE Board service Regulations Part-I Orders Issued. B.P.(PandG.Per)Ms.No.197, 1.B.P.Ms.No.548, dated 21.08.1967. 2.B.P.Ms.No.1032, dated 19.11.1984. 3.B.P.(PandG Per) Ms.No.415, dated 11.05.1988. PROCEEDINGS:In B.P.Ms.No.1032, dated 19.11.1984 Service Regulations were amended based on certain orders of Government laying down guidelines as to the fixation of pay of an employee on promotion to a higher post. The amendment was made effective from the date of issue of the said order, namely 19.11.1984. In the said amendment, the interests of a senior promoted before the introduction of the new regulations, in relation to a junior promoted after the new regulations came into existence, were protected. The said orders do not provide for pay protection of these employees who were promoted on or after the introduction of the new regulation as in the case of Govt., Orders. In order to rectify this anomaly the Board has decided to amend the regulations suitably.
