Subject : Implementation of approved recommendation of Kamlesh Chandra Committee on GDS who are working in Departmental posts, such period should invariably be counted as qualifying engagement period for all purpose including annual increase.
I am directed to say that Kamlesh Chandra Committee had observed that the period for which a GDS was working in departmental Posts with the approval of Competent Authority are not being counted for annual increase in TRCA in the original GDS Posts and TRCA is fixed at the same stage by them before proceeding to work as Postman MTS on deputation. The Committee recommended that such period should invariably be counted as qualifying engagement period for all purpose including annual increase.
2. The matter has been examined and following orders are issued:-

In other words, even if GDSs are absent from GDSs Post on account of deputation/engagement as MTS Postman as on the date of annual increase in TRCA, such GDS will be entitled for due annual increase in TRCA on notional basis in TRCA. It will be subject to the condition that he should not be on leave on the due date of annual increase while holding the posts on deputation or engagement as Postman/MTS.
