TA Rules: Clarifications on Admissibility of Composite Transfer Grant and TA/DA

Consequent upon the issuance of the DoE O.M. No.19030/1/2017-E.IV dated 13-7-2017 regarding implementation of recommendations of 7th CPC on Travelling Allowance, various references are being received in the DoE seeking clarifications regarding admissibility of Composite Transfer Grant (CTG) and TA/DA.

2. The matter has been considered in the DoE and with the approval of Competent Authority, it has been decided that admissibility of CTG and Transportation of personal effects on Transfer and Retirement will be regulated as under:

i) In case, the employee has been transferred prior to 1-7-2017 and has assumed charge prior to 1-7-2017, the employee will be eligible for CTG at pre-revised scale of pay. If the personal effects have been shifted after 1-7-2017, revised rates for transportation of personal effects will be admissible.

ii) In case, the employee has been transferred prior to 1-7-2017 and has assumed charge on/after 1-7-2017, the employee will be eligible for CTG at revised scale of pay. As the personal effects would be shifted after 1-7-2017, revised rates for transportation of personal effects will be admissible.

iii) In case of retirement, if an employee has retired prior to 1-7-2017, the employee will be eligible for CTG at pre-revised scale of pay. If the personal effects have shifted after 1-7-2017, revised rates for transportation of personal effects will be admissible.
