Both cases an employee may opt for the same on the date of entitlement or on the next 1st July the date of accrual of annual increment.
I came to know from different sources :-
Most of the primary teachers are taking their C.A.S benefit at present without any approval of their pay fixation statement by the concern authority in respect of their Option in this regard. That is why, those teachers will face some problems when they submit their pension papers at the time of their retirement if they ignore it.
My appeal, Please take care about it. waiting now expert opinion.
Is it only for primary edu? Each and every option relating to pay should be accepted by the competitent authority and be kept along with the Service Book. The matter is strictly observed at the time of scrutiny of Pension Papers. Thanks for the alert my dear friend.
