Sir, as per seventh pay commission, the MACP would be given on hierarchy basis only i.e. to be fixed on original promotional grade pay but my question is whether the same benefit would be given to those staff who have got MACP in sixth pay commission I.e. will the grade pay level be fixed on actual promotion leve without changing basis pay? My humble request is the level of should be fixed in promotional level of pay to those who have got MACP in 6th PC at lower level grade pay changed. This concept should have to applicable otherwise the word hierarchy is not at suitable in the 7th PC macp order.
