Sixth Pay Commission Recommendations.

The government has decided to pay higher salaries of Rs 67,000 to Rs 79,000 to up to 40 per cent of the professors in centrally funded technical institutes, including the IITs and the IIMs.

 

Under the Sixth Pay Commission recommendations, professors in the central institutes were entitled to between Rs 37,400 and Rs 67,000 a month with an additional grade pay of Rs 10,500 to Rs 12,000.

 

There was, however, a condition. At any point, only 40 per cent professors of an institute were to be eligible for the additional grade pay of Rs 12,000 a month, subject to their performance.

 

IIT teachers had been up in arms against the condition because they felt the 40 per cent cap would discriminate against young professors.

 

Now, in the New order , the Ministry has said that instead of movement up to AGP of Rs 12,000 per month, 40 per cent of the professors would move to HAG. “It has now been decided in consultation with the Department of Expenditure to extend the HAG scale of Rs 67,000-Rs 79,000 without any Grade Pay in place of AGP of Rs 12,000 per month. The AGP of Rs 12,000 per month does not exist anymore,” the HRD notification states.
